[COLOR="#FF0000"]You both look fantastic. Congratulations!![/COLOR]
Not the most exciting outfit, but it was an excuse to show off my new painted green suede tie:
Last day of finals today!
Puts me in mind of one of the big comedy guys of the Twenties.... for some reason I think Harold Lloyd first, but I can't recal him wearing anything other than a boater? Must have been at least one where he ended up in College garb, though...
I think I can see the flask, even from these angles!Last day of finals today!
Nice pics everyone.
I wore my suit (Land's End year rounder, tailored fit jacket, regular pants) in public for the first time. Church, and then lunch afterwards. It wasn't uncomfortable feeling, and I wanted to get used to wearing one for a while. I'm normally a bit more casual in church, khakis and collared shirts, sometimes jeans. I won't always wear a suit, but sometimes I might.

The last picture's a bit off, because I was standing at an angle, but while the fit's not perfect, it's serviceable. I'm not about to get another suit, as I'm hoping this will last three to four years.
What I wore hanging around with my college chums in the city today. Wearing my recently purchased vintage gabardine '40s Hollywood slacks (also the first pair of vintage slacks I've ever purchased).
I think "The Freshman" comes to mind.
Sharp! Not seen one like that before. Nicely pulled together with the rest of the outfit. From where are your cords?
...
They aren't cords. They are a sort of brushed cotton. They were made by Spencers Trousers (up in Yorkshire) copied from a pair I had made by a tailor from a 1930s pattern.
:eusa_clap Great! I love the look.Last day of finals today!

Nice Norfolk Jacket, Davidraphael. Ebay?
Good look - well put together. What did you wear over it (I'm assuming it's far too cold in NYC at present to go out in shirtsleeves!!)?
... It took me 40 years to grow into it but now it finally fits! I was the first person to ever wear it.
