Unless I'm in a production of My Fair Lady, I doubt that I'll be needing morning trousers. I was actually thinking of wearing them with a dinner jacket. It may be a fashion faux pas but, who knows, I may give it a go. :)
I recently purchased these grey houndstooth tuxedo pants. When can I wear them and with what? Is a cream shawl collar dinner jacket as acceptable as a black shawl collar jacket? Either? Neither?
I've made some of my best buys at estate sales. Particularly those where there are no heirs interested in the deceased person's personal property. I've found an old pipe table, a complete eight place setting of Churchill Blue Willow china, entire stereo systems, kitchen items with bakelite...
CJ, I've been pretty happy with my Stetson Retro
and my Stetson Center Dent.
You might want to see if you can find them on sale this late in the year. The Center Dent will probably set you back over $100.00. The Retro is probably $40-45. They're easy to find online. I believe both can be...
All right already! You're just jealous. :p ;) :)

I eagerly anticipate receiving letters from my mother...
If I had a 7 5/8 bowler, I'd send it to you.
DJ, I definitely feel your pain as do many others on this forum. Tony B is correct. Most sellers on Ebay don't know diddly about hats. Even more frustrating is the fact that most of them don't want to learn and refuse to correct listings even when...
You know, I've been following this discussion and think it's worth mentioning that people of all ages are spending good money for older/vintage items. There are older folks who buy these items for at least two reasons. One is because they've reached a point in life where they can afford things...
Nice hat too
Paddy, I liked this so much that I had to post a larger image. I particularly like the 4 pocket, 6 button vest. Can we see the entire outfit including the shoes sometime?
WOW!
That is stunning. I can certainly see the lighter color but it looks like her hairline was actually shaved/cut back at the temples and sides of her brow. How hard was it to maintain the new hairline?
