Some random Hollywood pictures.

The four ladies are Dorothy Dandridge, Anna Mae Wong, Dolores Del Rio, and Mae West.

There is also a tiny Marilyn Monroe on the very top.

On the off chance anyone may have ever wondered where Jimmy Kimmel films his show.

Thank you for making a city consumed by cars feel "walkable". Post COVID we all need to re-engage with the best of what our cities have to offer.

Also love the madras jacket.

Thank you. Walked around for about five hours today. It was near 90F today, so didn't want to walk around outside for more than six hours. Have always liked going outside and walking around.

After having tea walked down Franklin Avenue to Wattles Park. Despite what it said on their website, neither the house nor the gardens were open.

After that walked down to Hollywood Blvd back to the Hollywood-Highland Center to get back on the Red Line Subway to begin the journey back to where I came from. Always walk up and down the stairs at subway stations.

Here's a picture looking east on Hollywood Blvd. from La Brea Ave. You can see the Hollywood Gateway sculpture in context.

I generally like this, but I think the scale of the shirt stripe is less than ideal paired with the jacket.

You would suggest a wider stripe?

 

[sugarbutch]

You would suggest a wider stripe?

I would lean toward a solid or narrower stripe which resolves to solid from a few feet away. Alternatively, a lower-contrast stripe and ground at the width you have now could work.

I am more of a suit guy, but when donning a sports jacket, I usually incorporate a knit tie just for fun. Maybe a brown shoe would have been better, but we win some, lose some (and yes, the trousers deserve good ironing; it shall be done).
