    Is This a Real Trolley Type?

    I know this is a silly question, but is this a real trolley type? I had a dream last night, and in the dream was an image similar to this. A line of cars, which I have no idea if it is a real type of car or not, and a line of trolleys, which I also do not know if they are a real type. I must...

    Favorite comfort food . . .

    I love macaroni and cheese! I especially love when it is baked, as I love the crusty part. :essen: I also love mashed potatoes! The more butter, the better! :D

    What are you wearing today??

    Today, I am wearing my new Arrow shirt I got from the thrift store. I wonder when it's from? 50s? 60s? 70s? Perhaps the tag can determine the age? It is made in USA (it says so on the washing label.)

    Show us your Thrift and/or yard sale finds

    Today, I went to the thrift store. I found a short sleeve (spearpoint collar?) shirt, and a box. Here is the shirt. The shirt is made by Arrow, and the washing instructions are printed on the outside of the shirt (as seen in picture 3.) The shirt is made in USA. I plan on taking a picture of me...

    Is This Jacket an Ike Jacket, or a Ricky Jacket?

    I bought this Dickies jacket yesterday, as I needed a light-mid weight jacket. Besides, I thought it looked nice. I got it in Lincoln Green. It did not come yet, however. I was wondering, is this jacket a Ricky Jacket, or an Ike Jacket, or neither? As it isn't vintage, I don't know if these...

    Hair cuts

    I got a haircut last week. I asked for the sides and back to be quite short. Here is my haircut! I am using Brylcreem, that I let build up (I have been doing this lately, and I find that Brylcreem works best when you let it build up, and only use shampoo once every other week.) :D

    Road Line Colors?

    I have been looking at some vintage color street pictures on Google Images, and I noticed that there seems to be no yellow lines. Did road lines (in America) use to be white?

    Post New Hats Here!

    Here is my new grey Montique fedora. It is a woolie. It costs only $32, and I find it was an excellent deal. I got it originally to go with my black suit I put together, but I find it goes with everything! :D It seems this hat has 50s styling.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Today, I am wearing my new grey Montique fedora. It is made out of wool. It was an excellent deal, at $32. :D I believe that this hat has 1950s styling. I could be wrong, however.

    Show us your suits

    I put this suit together. Nothing here is vintage, except for my grandfather's tie clip. The pants are Aris Allen black slacks. The jacket is a new Arrow herringbone suit jacket. I also got a grey fedora, but I will post pictures of it tomorrow. :D

    I got a new black jacket to go with my black Aris Allen slacks. Now I have a black suit! I also got a grey fedora. I will post pictures of the hat tomorrow. Note the belt. I got it from TJ Maxx.

    Watch straps: leather or metal?

    As a day long wearer of watches, I have noticed that leather bands tend to rot, unfortunately. I personally prefer bracelet watchbands, as these are comfortable, and are easy to put on, as they are stretchy! :D

    Show us your TIES

    I made the pattern myself. It makes ties that are about 48" long, and 4 1/2" wide.
