Everyone's looking great this Friday afternoon. Wearing my Stetson Nutria conversion...flu bug hitting me pretty hard. Not a good picture.

Beautiful hat.

Sorry that you are getting beaten by the bug. Feel better ASAP.

Thanks Bob.

As for the camellias... They start blooming every January and continue into early April. It was definitely a nice and unexpected winter surprise when we first moved in a few years ago. It's quite a treat to see a beautiful, vibrant blossom with snow on it. Who'd 'f thunk it??? From what I understand, they are a hardier Japanese cultivar.

You are rockin' that Dexter today.

Enjoy.
Thx Matt. Enjoy yer buds...

Hey all!
A bright beautiful day. The only thing grim about today (besides my selfie grimace) is this Pilgrim.

Man!!!

Great Moe. Your collection has just blossomed over the last year. Always a hoot to see what you are bringing to the show.

Enjoy.

If being sick wasn't bad enough my computer decided to give up the ghost today. So very brief appearance here today.

I'm not capable of writing the long brand name of this cap, suffice it to say the Norwegian cap.

I've been sitting around today in my heavy wool pants, pile lined lambswool sweater and wool melton bomber jacket. And I'm still cold.

And then I can't even find the right forum to post in. Still might not be the right one, this being a cap.

Keep yourself warm and look after yourself, Michael. Hope you feel better soon!

Delightful Celia, I bet you got a lot of compliments wearing it!
Thanks Christina, I usually get more stares than compliments ;) That huge red bow hat of yours is fantastic, such a show stopper! Are you in Amsterdam regularly?

To mess up Chamuco's head... ;)

My favourite ribbon of yours :)

Thanks, Kuki.

That's my real license plate.

Yeah... 2016 seemed so bad that it was absurd. And bad in important "lifey" ways, not political garbage. One of the best ways for me to deal with absurdity is to laugh like hell at it. But I must say that while it was a terrible year in many, many ways... I learned a lot and grew a lot (despite evidence to the contrary [emoji6]). Those are good things.

Here's hoping that neither I, nor anyone else, will feel compelled to get a "17SUCKD" plate at the end of this year.

Enjoy.
Sorry to hear you had a tough year, I hope 2017 brings better things to your life. And great hats of course!

What a gorgeous day in the NE! Borsalino "Bellagio" in navy.

Beautiful borsalino, and perfectly combined with that suit. I love your attention to detail.

Jim, the hat looks great on you! Has the felt "softened up" a bit or is it still a bit stiff? Trying to decide whether to keep mine or pass it on. @Frunobulax

I don't think it's been worn enough to soften noticeably. My BGG is pretty soft. This is stiffer than that but softer than my SBCD. I'll have to give it more wear to see how that goes.

The snow began to fall last night and then all night has alternated with rain.
This morning gray and foggy day, and snarled traffic.
What better way to welcome the snow with a homburg arrived yesterday?

An alternative hat for a very ugly day :)

With better weather I will do more accurate pictures to post in the appropriate threads
Beautiful homburg, you look ready for the snow!

Blue's definitely your colour! Lovely

I wrapped up and braved the snow storm earlier today:

Great picture, and nice to see a man wearing a bow tie informally :)

Really nice, but I can't quite make out the colour. Is it a very dark brown?
