The more I see those collars the more I like them. Looking very sharp, AlanC!

The club collar is quite rare to see these days. Particularly the contrast club like this one appears to be.

I really like the club collar.

One of these days, when I find a suit to wear it with (I do not yet own a '20s or '30s suit) I will go for a club collar. Young Indiana Jones looked particularly dapper in them.

Demand pictures! Men in uniform look quite smart.

Sunny, you are way too adorable.

Regarding Miss Sunny, ditto what the young gentleman from the Sunshine State just said.

What am I wearing today?

Wrinkles! That's what!

I ironed my shirt this morning and left the house looking all crispy and neat. Between the humidity and my commute I may as well not even bothered--my shirt is one big wrinkle! Ah, Summer--it does wreak havock on the natural fibers. It's a small consolation that everyone else looks wrinkled today too.

PS You look so sharp Alan! The tie adds that extra something to the outfit.

Alan, that club collar is really sharp! I tried the seller you mentioned, but no dice. Anyone know of another source for them? I tried Googling it, but no luck there, either.

AlanC · Jul 10, 2007

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. The problem now is I can't show a picture of me wearing that shirt for a long time because everyone noticed it!

As for finding it, when I checked armyhardhat still had three sizes left, and at a very good price. It's apparently an outlet item now as they're clearing them out. Check your Brooks outlets, I guess, and trawl ebay.

Today I wore my 50's Grecian Urn sun dress. No photo of me in it, but here is the dress.

This is what I wore yesterday. I made this dress from a vintage pattern.

imoldfashioned · Jul 10, 2007

Ooh! That urn dress is adorable Lolita--I'm a sucker for novelty prints.

KittyT · Jul 10, 2007

Today I'm wearing a cute navy w/ white polka dots repro wrap 40s style dress. Add red wedges, red rhinestone star-shaped earrings, a red beaded necklace and bracelet, and a red leather 40s handbag and I have a nice, comfortable, lazy day outfit.

Thanks! That pocket square is turning out to be my new favorite item.

The Brooks Brothers sport coat is at the tailor's and should be ready tomorrow. I'll be wearing that one this weekend.

Since I'm meeting KittyT after work today I have forsaken the modern clothes I usually sport at my place of employment.

I'm wearing a late 1940's forest green dress with horizontal tucks and tiny button accents, brown ankle strap shoes and my vintage Trifari set--earrings and bracelet with green and white rhinestones. Filene's basement willing, I'll have a brown belt on before the day is out as well.

PS AlanC I love your color choices--the tans and blues look great together (the socks are terrific too!)

OOOOH sounds cute! I can't wait to see it!

I usually dress vintage for work, but pulled out a 40s dress today that I haven't worn before. Pale pink with an atomic type print in dark pink, black and teal. Black wedges, a light pink fakelite bracelet with rhinestones, and a pair of cabuchon style pink earrings.

The ladies love a man who OCCASIONALLY wears dirty jeans. Shows he's masculine. (According to my wife, who encourages me to wear jeans sometimes, with rolled-up cuffs, and a white t-shirt!)
