I REALLY LOVE your Shirt! It looks like your party had a great evening! What more could you ask for! Also, the color of that suit is out-standing! Nice heft on it too! Exceptional!
Hi Don! You know, you don't really need special occasions to get at least a bit dressed up, just slowly work it more and more into your daily wardrobe, and before you know it, you'll find that there's always a way to appropriately feel well dressed. Sometimes just for kicking around in, you can sport a nice button down collar shirt with a neck-tie and a sweater, or no necktie, and a point collar, but pull the point collar over the sweater's neck opening, or spruce up your work shirt and jeans with a casual sport coat and brown bluchers or cowboy boots with a (NOT square toe! Hahaaa!), I don't know. Just ideas. Find pieces that speak to you, shirts, simple ties, a sport coat, a nice sweater that you enjoy, build your wardrobe sir! Make the opportunities, and enjoy knowing that you're at least one of the better dressed people in the room, if not necessarily always the best (hey, you might run into a fellow lounger right? Then we'd have to flip a coin, or something), just enjoy it! Thrifting, yeah; it's a Great way to build up a decent wardrobe on a budget! I used to do a lot it, and still, occasionally, do, also Ebay. The J. Press stuff is Always so Nice! Good Hunting and wearing Sir! Have a Blessed day! P.S. Love the Hammet reference.
Everything in that picture is cooler and better looking than anything in my life. I assume he's on his way to pick up 1960's vintage Julie Christie for a date.I wish this is what I was wearing today! Still, I thought a lot of you would get a kick out of this vintage photo, since it ties into several of the threads here.
