Absolutely amazing images. Thank you so much for posting them. I sure wish people still dressed like that. And that HSM still made clothing like that!

I'm looking for a black or dark gray morning coat, approximately size 44 regular. I prefer vintage, 1950s or older. Willing to hear all reasonable prices. Also looking for vintage morning trousers, about size 38 waist and 32 inseam or less.

I almost bid on that one, but I would've needed to drop a few inches off my waist to get it to fit! People back then must have been a lot skinnier. Excellent find. I can't get enough of double-breasted dinner jackets.

I just scored my first pair of Allen Edmonds on Ebay, chile Byrons in size 10. I haven't worn them yet, but I already know they won't be my last pair of AEs.

Same here. My girlfriend asks me all the time, "Why don't you wear a t-shirt and jeans? It would be a nice surprise." Nah, I don't think so. ;)

Heck no! Natasha is a brat. Sonya or Princess Marya seems more to my liking. ;)

It seems like the Russians call each other by their first and middle names. At least that's what it looks like to me. And Bolkonsky is a good man. It would be nice to hang out with him, provided that I didn't have to meet his dad. :p

I'm reading War and Peace right now. I'm at page 700 right now and I think I finally have all the characters' names straight. Only 686 pages to go . . .

Che cosa? So what's the deal with Target? If you'll excuse me, I think I heard something fly over me head . . . :p

And thank you, too! :) There sure are a lot of nice people here!

Ah, shucks. I'm turnin' red, here. Thanks. :D

Hasn't worked, in my case. All the women want to meet the dog, not me. :p

Thanks, Marty and grazie, Johnnysan. ;)

Eh, I hope you're right! I guess need to find somebody to learn with . . . not to mention more guts to try. ;-)

Thank you very much! It's good to feel so welcome.
