How to post pictures!
As I finally found out, it is much simpler to post images by dragging the image from your computer file folder onto the message itself than by loading it onto a third party hosting site and then typing in the URL.- Shanghailander

Panama Hat Thread
This is in relation to a new member inquiring about Panamahatcollections, an internet seller of Panama hats. He was accused of being a shill. Here is my recent experience with this company: (By the way, the original poster is NOT a shill - his English is too good) Saw a "Havana" fino hat I...- Shanghailander

Haiku for hats... or poems accepted.
Hats by Erica Jong A world of hats & homicides–– old New York–– children playing hopscotch, painters clinging like acrobats to bridges being built–– murder photos where even the dead wear hats–– everyone in hats! Peaked caps on workers, bowlers on bankers, top hats on plutocrats–– hats...- Shanghailander

All You Need to Know About Hat Etiquette
I went to Birdland in NYC last week to hear Lucky Peterson. Great show, and a great time. The Birdland Jazz club looks exactly like all those small dinner clubs you see in movies from the 1940s and 50s - small tables for two with a candle, and everyone right up close to the stage. The bar is...- Shanghailander

Panama Hats Direct - a great experience
My "good" Panama, which I bought from Panama Bob some years ago, blew out of the back seat of the car in early June. I was heading out to Europe and wanted a replacement, but fast. I found a Fino Fino, Plantation style hat in my size at Panama Hats Direct. Despite some mixed reviews here on...- Shanghailander

Batwing Bowties
I've been looking for some batwing bowties that don't cost north of $50, but they seem to be pretty scarce on the ground. Since I don't favor the butterfly style, I've been wearing diamond points. Anyone know a good source for these?- Shanghailander

What type of collar is this?
I'll be attending a production in NYC where the audience is encouraged to dress in period dress - the setting is a posh hotel which closed in 1939. I'm thinking of wearing a high collar with four-in-hand necktie but don't have one. Here is a collar display I saw in Boston. What is the name...- Shanghailander

Sprezzatura vs trying too hard.
[ Ah, but if you have confidence, and still find pleasure in dressing yourself in style, there are subtle rewards. On three occasions I have talked my way out of a traffic ticket I am sure would have failed if I had dressed like most men my age do. Out and about, I see passersby (women)...- Shanghailander

Collar pins, Yes or No?
I wear one every day. As a youngster, I used to see shirts in the store windows with great looking collars, then wondered why they didn't stay up that way after I bought them - the reason was the merchants "posed" the shirt to keep the collar up and sharp. Now, I get that look with a collar...- Shanghailander
