    Vintage Sunglasses

    I love the crew chiefs. There are my primary pair of sunglass. A plus for me is that they are made in Randolph, MA, and I like to support local business. Lately, I have been wearing my Persols. I bought these in an eyeglass shop near La Fontana di Trevi in Roma. I'm wearing these more and...

    Sham Huh?

    Agreed! I love Vince. He looks like he stole a shipment of them from a truck in Brooklyn. "Are you following me, camera guy?" It's great that it works on hats. I've been meaning to get one for the car and my Vespa.

    songs that make you shiver/cry

    I don't have feelings, but if I did, Sting has quite a few affecting songs: "Shape of My Heart," used to great effect in "Leon: The Professional," "Fields of Gold," and a song that is very special to me, "It's Probably Me," from the "Lethal Weapon 2" soundtrack. Also, "Bonnie Portmore," by...

    You know, Mr Powers, there is a "jamespowers" over at "You Can't Touch This - The Message Board for Those Who Dress Like M.C. Hammer." Are you denying that it's you?

    T-Shirts in the 1930s - 1940s

    "Rebel Without A Cause" springs to mind; James Dean contrasted with Jim Backus. "A Touch of Evil" has the Mexican gang in pompadors and leather jackets vs Charlton Hestons contempory stylishness and Orson Welles slightly dated disshevelled police detective. "On the Waterfront" has a...

    You and Foofoogal have touched my heart! So sweet! Thank you. :) I was kidding, of course, about myself. With the size of my ego, I need to make that clear, I think! :eusa_doh: lol This thing about "bringing sexy back," is that from a song of his?

    The Pressure is off me, Now that Justin Timberlake...

    ... Has been named, by "GQ Magazine" the Most Stylish Man in America. My first reaction was a realization that I am so far out of the loop of what is commonly considered stylish or fashionable that I couldn't even think of a single thing this young man wears, beyond those little shrunken...

    Tweed jackets: a manner of dressing them

    So much you can do with these... Try tattersall shirts with plaid, club, or hunting ties, paired with wool trousers or country cords. Country boots, brogues, or gum boots finish the look nicely. Enjoy!

    Personal Elements of Style

    Is there anything you do that bucks the norm, that is unique to you for whatever reason? I speaking, beyond the fedoras, the Victory rolls, or belted back suits, beyond all the vintage clothes, and rather those idiosyncratic elements of style similar to Fred Astaire using a neck tie as a...

    Harbingers of Spring

    One sure sign and one only, everything the Red Sox need for spring training was loaded into a truck at Fenway Park and hit the Mass Pike headed south! Ah! Spring!

    favorite cars of the golden era

    I'm sure we've all read about the 1937 Bugatti Type 57S that was found in a barn and sold for $5 million or so. That is one of my favorite cars ever. It was stylish, sleek, extremely well-made and represented the height of automotive technical achievement at the time. It was a scalpel in a...

    Ever yearn for a vintage name?

    When my grandfather was too old to work, he created an alias for himself, so that he could continue working. I swear he lifted this name from some old noir film, "Frank Mergatroit." So, a potential employer calls the house asking for "Frank Mergatroit" and my brother says, "There's no one...

    Cost Of A Haircut

    I go Monday night every three weeks to Dellaria Salon in Brookline where my friend Shells works. She is a vintage enthusiast and knows exactly what I want. I highly recommend her, by the way, if you're anywhere near Boston. I pay $29 and give a $10 tip plus $5 to the wash girl.

    Are you a gentleman?

    Not at all. We may disagree without being disagreeable.
