    New To Fedora's

    Seems like they're on sale every time I go to my Men's store back in the states. If you're on a budget, MSRP is your enemy. Somebody has it for sale somewhere. Worth buying your first from a place that can fit your properly I may add, so I'd avoid the net.

    Movie posters with hats

    Not a movie poster, but Ian McKellen's IMDB profile has a beautiful hat. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005212/

    An old size 7 velour Mallory that I wish could fit my head.

    Was looking for hats and came across this on EBAY. Looks sweet, but much too small for me to buy. http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-MALLORY-Fifth-Avenue-GENUINE-VELOUR-Fedora-HAT-/250751373661?pt=US_Hats&hash=item3a61f2515d

    Public Enemies, Purvis's suit

    Title explicitly calls out the movie. I guess I should have seen the movie actually, since my home in the US is in Crown Point.

    Double-breasted suit with 4 buttons?

    http://www.everythingmiumiu.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/08e86a1198869Web.jpg.jpg Beppe Modenese wears 4 button DB suits all the time. I'm terrified to do it because, unlike Beppe, I'm not ready to embrace my gut just yet.

    What's this hat?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojC0mg2hJCc Looks like some kind of fedora with the brim popped down all the way around, but the material has a kind of fuzziness to it.

    A touch of cinnamon

    Works surprisingly well to garnish a beer too. Local bar here in Seoul has some kind of beer cocktail they make with their own granat and some espresso. They throw some cinnamon on top.

    Kalimotxo!

    I got turned onto Kalimotxo a couple years back. Kalimotxo is a drink that is (I hear) pretty popular in Spain. The recipe is simple. 1 part Coca Cola, 1 part Red Wine. In my experience cheap, not especially sweet but very tanniny wine is the way to go to counteract the inherent sweetness...

    The Most Famous Hat

    Captain Crunch's bicorn is up there. Elmer Fudd you'd know by the silhouette of his hat alone. I guess cartoon is cheating, but there's some pretty iconic hats in cartoons.

    What to wear with a fedora....

    I think there's a lot of things that Paul Newman can pull off that I can't. If you want to keep the Jeans and fedora thing safe, keep the jeans dark.

    Does anyone wear a sharkskin suit anymore?

    Seersucker is great for the derby, not so great for the mortuary. The charming wrinkles would look sloppy to many.

    Please help me with formalwear for my wedding...

    When I get married it's gonna be my excuse to splurge on a sweet tux. Probably copy something similar to this...

    Complete new, 3 piece casual suit to start, help?

    If it fits in the shoulders, a lot of magic can happen to fix the rest of it. If the shoulders don't fit you are $crewed.

    Lapel Altering

    If you went somewhat thin on lapel you could shave the whole boutonniere whole with those giant lapels.
