    Handkerchiefs and Pocket Squares

    Well, I have no idea when they were made, but they sure are cool. I think it would be quite fun to see the various color combinations that would result from different folds.:D

    Plain colored ties

    I tend to prefer more plain looking ties myself (single color, simple stripes, or polka dots), though I only have a couple vintage ties. I am actually very fond of polka dot ties and have noticed that they are showing up in stores a bit more lately. I think that completely plain (i.e...

    Necktie Knots

    I'm gonna give this knot a try. I think the right pattern on a tie would help the layered part of this knot (that was nicely highlighted in the last post) stand out.

    Necktie Knots

    Interesting knot. Seems like a half windsor with a second wrap near the end. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6Ye-oS_Bfk

    Parting Men's Hair: Where Should I Part Mine?

    If you look down at the crown of your head (or have someone else do it for you) you will notice your hair swirls either clockwise or counterclockwise. If your hair is cut really short or is very long you might not be able to tell. Your hair will probably part the best if you work with the...

    Consumer Reports best wrinkle-free shirt: JC Penney Stafford Essentials

    Stafford shirts are excellent and affordable. I have quite a few in my closet and wear them all the time. Glad to hear other FLers like them too.

    Handkerchiefs and Pocket Squares

    I think... If the pictures you reference represent a pocket square as if you were seeing it in someone's pocket that is facing you, I believe Marc is saying the opposite of what you conclude. The creased side on the points, not the "open" side, should be closest to your shoulder. See posts...

    Mystery solved! Bogart's weird suit in "The Big Sleep"

    On the USA television series "The West Wing" Martin Sheen's character (President Bartlett) is always placing his eyeglasses in the outside breast pocket of his suit jacket. Yeah, I know, a TV reference, but the only one I can think of.

    Proper wearing of a belt?

    I think really long suspenders would be a more practical approach for this look.

    The Blues

    I love the blues, especially the pre-war stuff. I had the honor and pleasure of seeing and meeting Honeyboy Edwards in New Orleans last year. He's still touring in his mid-90s!

    Travel Suits (airport and waiting around)

    I am completely on the "dress for comfort" side of this. I always wear a Hawaiian style shirt, hiking shorts (with velcro pockets, or jeans in colder weather), and running shoes. I've found that wearing a shirt with at least one breast pocket always comes in handy. On longer trips I've...

    Rings

    Johnny Depp wore a cool ring in Dillinger. It seemed to have a reddish brown colored stone. I don't have a pic, but I am still looking. Anyone know what kind of ring it was?

    Bogart is my favorite.

    My wife and I just saw Public Enemies last night. We both really enjoyed it.
