Old black Borsalino.

My Daughter had her homecoming dance a few days ago, it was Rockabilly themed, so I brought out the '55 and chauffeured her and her friends to Ruby's Diner in Laguna Beach then to the Dance.

Silverbelly Campdraft.

 

[Mr E Train]

You were either born to wear that Campdraft, or that Campdraft was born to be worn by you.

I lowered the walls on my Stetson Nostalgia pork pie and raised the dome to make it stick out just a little.

I think this page could wake up the dead.

Wow, fellas!

I drove some elderly acquaintances into Minneapolis last night for an event with former UN Ambassador John Bolton. Don’t have a chauffeur’s cap, so I wore my Ashland; didn’t want the coat-check folks touching my Nostalgia.

Back to my Nostalgia today though.

There's a time and a place to drop names. This is the time, and this is the place. Looking sharp!

Thanks Randooch. I didn’t see anyone else there with a hat, ruined the evening. In fact I didn’t see anyone in all Minneapolis with anything other than a baseball cap. It was like entering the land of the heathens.

Man, everyone is looking great!

 

[Mr E Train]

Oh man, does the :arated: smilie not work anymore?

 

[B.J. Hedberg]

Old black Borsalino.

Looking good sir. I can't ever seem to get my black hats dust free.

 

[B.J. Hedberg]

Great look GWD, matches perfectly. Clearly I don’t get out enough; I had to look up “Rockabilly” to find out just what it was.

 

[RBH]

You were either born to wear that Campdraft, or that Campdraft was born to be worn by you.

Thank you sir!

I wore my new Stetson Open Road out on the town tonight. My dad told me tonight when he saw it, that his dad , my gramps used to wear the same hat. I never new that. I always remember him wearing the hat ,but that was a long time ago. How cool is that?

 

[mayserwegener]

Dasmoeturhead, Nice story!

BJHedberg, Thanks! The black felts do show the dust.

I decided it would be a good idea to try and do my best for my first entry in the "new" FL... so I took my whiskey VS.

I attempted again a brown-hat-with-grey-suit combo. This whiskey colour is a rich brown with a green cast, which the green ribbon and binding enhances, so I played with browns and greens in the complements to blend it in; browns in the shoes, belt, pocket square accents and tie minor accents (ah, and in the socks! ), green in the tie's ground.

I think the whole works. What do you think?

Torpedo, it worked for gentlemen in the 1940's. I think it still works, but hey, I love all hats.
