HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

@upr_crust
 is that a pocket watch with compass?! I am jealous (in the good sense). where could i find one please? 

I am sorry that I cannot help you with this. The compass and watch chain were something I found among my late father's effects after his death. The pocket watch was a present from my current husband (an inexpensive mechanical watch, brand name London - worth vastly more as an expression of affection than as a piece of jewelry).

Bravo upr_!  Looking great!

It's good to be back among the ambulatory.

Sir crust, glad to see you posting again. Looking splendid as always. I don't know if I told you this, but I commissioned my suit after seeing your PS windowpane. Before that I did not consider windowpane something to be pursued. Imitation, flattery etc.

I entirely blame Paul Stuart's. The suit was featured prominently in the fall 2013 catalog, and it was bought with my 40th high school class reunion in mind - I wanted to look totally unlike the poor schnook I was in high school. I believe that I succeeded in that regard. I was also married in today's suit, albeit with a different waistcoat.

Ah love your pocket watch! So nice The whole outfit is perfect

If you are referring to me, thank you. If not, my apologies for the presumption.

@Lewis26 are you European?

English to the core.

I thought as much.

I think what he means is, he's not European.

Thank you, Chawk. As for the "how does one do it?" - one lives a very long time, buys a lot of clothes, figures out what works and doesn't work, gets rid of the "doesn't work", and wears the rest. Simple, really - in principle. Less so in practice, and it's a constant learning process, which brings its own pleasures.

Well thank you. I enjoy your post.

Merry Christmas! This is actually fairly SF approved and quite trad. Nantucket Reds, LL Bean long sleeved polo, Brooks Brothers 3/2 roll blazer, Clark's desert boots.

Just superb.

I've been looking for a moss green fedora. That one looks very nice, though I'm not familiar with the brand.
