What are you wearing today??

[Matthew S.]

Another view of me today, this time seated with a good view of my bamboo walking stick (silver band) and Allen Edmonds cordovan wingtip brogues.

Very impressive Matthew, I keep looking at a boater hat, still undecided. A grey suit though, now that I can empathise with.

The shoes, although period correct, are not the best style, there's a
pair of silver grey and white spectators in the pipeline.

Temperatures are likely to reach mid 80's today, Poole Quay is just the place to enjoy it.
Actually Tina has an outpatients appointment at Poole General Hospital this morning,
after which we shall soak up the sun on the quay with coffee and croissants.

Top to bottom: Stetson 7XCB, RRL Corduroy western shirt over a RLPL Henley, RRL Limited Edition jeans in a 86% cotton/14% wool denim. The belt is a hitched horse hair one, prisoner made from the Deer Lodge State Prison in Montana. Ray Jones cowboy boots.

Although retired, I still help out at work as and when they have a panic on, like this morning's phone call: "Help!" I was there throughout the very busy morning, about five hours, I had all but forgotten that there are two six o'clocks every day. But there I was, in the dark winter morning, downing my coffee fix.

Later, back home, I'm cooking a pasta meal this evening and we seem to be out of parmesan. I'm back in the car and off to the supermarket. The compliments for my John B. head wear, one of the staff joked and said that she thought that all hats were worn backwards, a remark about the peaked cap that really does seem to be worn as such.

What am I wearing? A Stetson Sovereign tops out a made to measure blazer, shirt and trousers courtesy of Tina, my wife. Shoes are also bespoke, made by the very talented Colin Johnson.

This blazer was bought from a trader at a festival. The hemline, pockets and lapels all looked very shabby but the jacket itself looked almost unworn. Tina assessed that it was probably made to measure by an inexperienced tailor. The price was a steal and two days in the lady's cabin, where she unpicked all the untidy finishes, trimmed and aligned the pockets and lapels and it was good to go.

She made the shirt and trousers to compliment it, the Gamble & Gunn bespoke hat was already in my wardrobe and the shoes are yet another fine pair from that talented cordwainer, Colin Johnson.

What a kind compliment, thank you. Now retired, well semi-retired, I help out at work as and when. This morning I have been asked to call on a new account, spend a few hours with them, each of us familiarising ourselves with the other's "modus operandi."
At three am this morning, the bladder insisting on being relieved, in the bathroom I heard the howling wind outside, the rain lashing down against the window, and thought: "I must be mad!" Being retired is all well and good but there's only so much daytime TV or the internet that one can tolerate. The stimulus of work is like no other, besides, wearing my hat around the house would have Tina thinking that I am ready for the funny farm.

Today's blazer is an exquisite, made to measure, by John Parrett of Fox Tailoring. https://www.foxtailoring.co.uk/ Yesterday's hat, trousers and shoes get a rerun. The shirt, Tina made and presented me with it on Christmas Day morning. I wore it to church that day, which pleased the lady.

I mainly post in the Workware part of the Lounge, but I do love all types of style when it comes to mens clothing, so I love coming here to lurk and watch all the incredible outfits from our more "dressed up" members

Cheers mate and hope you and the lady have a great weekend!
