What are you wearing today??

[rue]

Okay, it's not what one would call vintage (except maybe for the traditional garrison cap), but it is Veteran's Day here in the U.S., after all...

Hey! I know that handsome guy!

Thank you for your service my friend

Weather's getting cold enough to break out my recently aquired NRA label overcoat.

Well done! Your last contribution was as well

Saturday 5th November, before heading out to the Ric Rac Club:

Today (11/11/11 - Nigel Tufnel day!):

...Cool to carry your gloves in that pocket...!!!

 

[Giftmacher]

I do not know why, but people on the street began to greet me and I'm not half well dressed as the others here. Well, wearing a felt
hat is very unusual here in Bohemia, especially in such a small town.

 

[Shangas]

It really would be nice to see some photos, if possible!

As a matter of fact, you can. Dad insisted on photographing me! Here we are.

I apologise for the quality. Dad thinks he's a fashion-photographer sometimes...

What isn't shown are my black leather dress-shoes.

No, but it's classic.

 

[Tomasso]

Another great look, Shangas.









I won't harp on the size of the tie knot ......BTW, a silk knit tie is a nice choice with denim

 

[Levallois]

Wore it a while ago but didn't download until today - sorry the first photo is a little blurry but the hat matches a rust color in the jacket as do the pants with a dark brown. The shoes, jacket, and tie also match color-wise. Fairly happy with the look.

Thanks, rue!

No, but it's classic.

I suppose it is, A.C.

Thanks Rue!

Interesting jacket; is it military?

Weather's getting cold enough to break out my recently aquired NRA label overcoat.

Beautiful coat, I love that high-gore cut on a DB. I have a couple of DB overcoats, probably both 1950s, and the gore is a touch lower. You notice the difference on the coldest of days!

...Cool to carry your gloves in that pocket...!!!

Thank-you! I had always assumed that was what it was for, but I don't know if that is the case, or if it had some sort of alternative use originally (if even it had any use beyond mere ornamentation at all).

Wore it a while ago but didn't download until today - sorry the first photo is a little blurry but the hat matches a rust color in the jacket as do the pants with a dark brown. The shoes, jacket, and tie also match color-wise. Fairly happy with the look.

Nice. I like the shoes especially. You don't often see co-respondents with an all-white top (as opposed to the darker colour round the lacing). I have one pair like that, though mine are B&W, the rest all have the darker hue on the top. Love that look, with the white laces - really echoes white spats (which I had always assume co-respondents in some way were intended to do in their design).

This afternoon I've been working on some loose ends in the office, and am off to see the Damned later on so it's a dress-down day for me:

The jacket is an Aero MC. They cut them short and these jeans keep riding low on me, but I kinda like it sitting on top of my belt like that. I don't ride *(even if I did it'd be an old-school, upright-seated position kinda bike), so the extra length isn't missed.

I think it'll sit better when these jeans break in a bit and the waistband doesn't slip down so easy... Rarely wear the jacket closed anyhow, but I find Aero zips on ross-over style jackets can be stiff, so I close it when I remember to try and break it in a bit....

I had two friends of mine over for a visit; two wonderful, young women, and I decided to go with a more conservative, british gentleman - like outfit. I also tried a tie, but then I preferred to skip it. The girls don't like it when the man is better dressed then they are I think it went quite well. Check it out:

To the guys: would you please focus on my outfit! :wink:

Another great look, Shangas.

I'm not wearing denim. Those trousers are cotton. I'd be dead in the cold, cold, worm-infested earth before I ever put on a pair of jeans and cheapen myself.

 

[lolly_loisides]

Everyone is looking fab.

Shangas, I think you've mentioned before that you've lost a bit of weight, but your looking very svelte in your last picture Congrats.

 

[Spitfire]

Finally my "movember mo" suits the rest of my attire

 

[Flat Foot Floey]

Great picture, Spitfire. I like the polka dot scarf.

Love the fabric!

I KNOW I made a pig's tail of that knot, ok? Just say you like the damn tie!
