What are you wearing today??

[Dr Doran]

Doran, dear you are too kind, thank you

Au contraire, I am entirely unkind. I only speak the truth.

My two get ups for today. Again no vintage stuff except for the hats...

Love both shots, but the jacket with the hat really makes it work in that first one!

Well I still maintain you are too kind.

Thank you, Rusty! Yeah, it's obviously one of my favorite jackets. Love it!

Outstanding Jamie!!! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap
I'm sure your lovely wife certainly enjoyed you dressed like this too! What kind of music did they play at the Ball??

Here is a picture from the formal St Andrew's Ball I attended last night in San Francisco.

Cheers

BRAVO!!! to all the sharp gentlemen - it's been a glut of sartorial magnificance... you all look superb! :eusa_clap

To that Alan- kudos on making that combo work, if someone gave me those same articles of clothing(especially that jacket) i'd have not the first clue what to do with them but you managed to fit everything together not only well, but so that it doesn't look loud, it all look like it belongs together. good work.

Mario- that's a fine fedora, its not gigantic like the Fed IV so it looks like it won't get as many stares (the wrong kind).

Thanks. The first one is a Lee Trinity with a 2" 1/2 brim, the second is a 1940's Canadian Brooks with a brim of 2" 3/4. Both crowns are about 4" 1/2 tall.

Inspired by some of the old catalogue scans that have been posted here, today I wore my grey db suit with a sweater vest.

50s suit
50s tie
Van Heusen collar
Modern sweater vest
Lee fedora

The full shot has a reflection from the wall mirror, but I can post it if anyone wants.

 

[sproily]

Top notch, Nick D! Would really want to see the whole outfit

Outstanding Jamie!!! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap I'm sure your lovely wife certainly enjoyed you dressed like this too! ??

cC,

Who do you think I dress to impress for?

She was was a vision in red and maroon

Here are a few more pictures from the evening

A friend of ours gave us traditional Scottish Fez hats during the dinner

What kind of music did they play at the Ball??

They started off with a quartet playing traditional Scottish Country Dance music (reels, strathspeys, and such) though there was no one to make up a set with.

Then there was a pipe band, a larger orchestra, and finally a Jazz quartet to dance to.

Here is me and my Lady dancing a little West Coast Swing

Bye now!

Cheers

So today I went out with a friend and she requested I go completely modern with my attire. So here it is. I did still maintain my vintage-y hair but this is modern as I get. What do you think?

With that smile and those big, bright brown eyes, you always look exceptionally beautiful.

Oh, to be young again ...

 

[chanteuseCarey]

Smart Man.

Your lovely wife looks very elegant too! WCSwing is such a fun dance to do, my husband really likes it because its one of the few ballroom dances where the gentleman gets to do really cool moves too.

I do leave the house occasionally..

...and here's proof that I am not always in an apron or dungarees.

Yesterday I went to a matinee in Phoenix and then perused the bookstore / cafe.

Closeups of the hat, which I'm quite fond of:

And here's the "artistic" shot in the spirit of FL self-portraits...in your mind's eye I am on the cover of a fashion magazine...perhaps the scene is a little Italian plaza and I am seated on the edge of a fountain watching birds take flight:

Well, if I'm going to have fun all by myself, I may as well get it right in my head.
