    Indy or the Hat

    Personally, it was The Third Man that did it for me. Different kind of cool I guess. It could be worth noting that the above varieties of hat are considerably more formal, and have strong links with other things- top hats with toffery and ascot, bowlers with morning suits and clockwork...

    Rounded collars?

    Also, the Vintage Shirt Company are UK based, have a fairly wide variety of shirts, detachable and attached (including some nice 20's/30's style spearpoint collared shirts and other bits and pieces). All their double rounded collars are seperate. Pricing is fairly reasonable. However, I...

    Back in the late 30's early 40's, the legendary King of Swing Cab Calloway compiled "The Hepsters Dictionary: The Language of Jive", all that jive talk those swinging hepcats were spoutin' back in the day. A fantastic resource! Found a transcript of it online and I figured it may well be...

    1930s Fashion Slaughterhouse

    Sorry, you take me a little too literally there... I guess I'm just a sucker for adverbs.:eusa_doh: on a side note, I notice nobody sites the scarab studs as cruel... but I guess they're not cute or furry enough to qualify for compassion?

    1930s Fashion Slaughterhouse

    Well, when I was younger I found one of these, yep, a real Armadillo. Nicely hollowed out into a basket. Don't know what ever happened to it now, I think my mother threw it out- she's not quite so keen on that sort of thing. [huh] Those shirt studs are AMAZING!! I'm thinking...

    Your signature cocktail.

    That's a killer combo alright- a great cocktail! As a barman by (part-time) trade, I have a lot of time to play around mixing drinks. Current favourite is a combination I never thought would work, but was extremely impressed with the result. Simplest mix of amaretto and cranberry juice-...

    What Are You Reading

    Decided to read through a list of books made into films. I've just finished 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?' by Philip K. Dick (which became Blade Runner), now moving on to Elmore Leonards 'Hombre'(Paul Newman flick). I've got quite a few to work through, but anyone else got any good...

    Amy Winehouse

    Shame... I think a Winehouse Bond theme would have been a grand idea. Well if this does ring true I will be very interested in comparing the two. Thanks for the heads up on this one!

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Ah, I also missed this one on first joining. I'm fairly shy I'm afraid, hence the lack of posts in the first few months (has it been that long already?), but hopefully, I'll start posting more now... It's fantastic to find a base of people with the same interests and passions as I! I...
