    Just got a Mint 1930's Stetson 20 Sovereign

    That hat is awesome! A great find! How much was it at the vintage store? I should search some vintage/Goodwill stores in my area more often.

    Pomade

    I'm going to have to check out the Sweet Georgia Brown products. I live about 20 minutes from where it's produced. A call to them confirmed that I can buy directly from their office in Oak Park, MI, as they have limited distribution in my area. I'm excited to give them a visit!

    New trend in movie fedoras...?

    Here you go... I just rented this movie today, some screencaps for your amusement:<div class="thumbnail"><a href="http://skitch.com/joewozniacki/w4q4/viewer"><img src="http://img.skitch.com/20080901-e8usdd7s8r1b2bxw8h4widx1fb.preview.jpg" alt="Viewer" /></a><br /><span style="font-family...

    A Head for Style

    Interesting article...but it seems to me to provide proof that yet again, we will be associated as Indie-wannabees, following the trend, when in fact we just like the hat by itself. I guess I'd rather be associated with Indiana Jones than a gangsta.

    Johnny Depp as Dillenger in new "Public Enemies" Is anyone excited to hear about the new movie in production, Public Enemies, starring Johnny Depp as John Dillenger? Some locals have caught a few pictures of the production location in Wisconsin: The movie will also star Christian Bale...

    Any other virus protection other than Norton and McAfee?

    I would recommend checking out the reports over at www.av-comparitives.org/ they do independent tests of various Windows Antivirus on a regular basis. This quarter, it seems that TrustPort Antivirus Workstation and Avira Antivr both got the best overall detection rates. My personal preference...

    Slow cooking

    Here's a vegetarian recipe for ya! One of my favorite crock pot recipes is something a little different - overnight oatmeal! It is really easy, and tastes phenomenal! It uses steel cut (aka. Irish oatmeal), which is superior to that instant crap-ola sold at the grocer. Overnight Oatmeal: 1c...

    A question of fashion...

    CharlestonBows, how do you like your W&W Prescott fedora? They seem to be reasonably priced. Is yours regular grey or light grey?

    Changes in formal social events

    Fletch and Martinis, the notion of this forum and its associated gatherings as civilized hobbies whereby we "acquire style, taste, and individuality" and "bond through sharing them [our acquisitions]" is an interesting way of putting it. On the flip side, I do believe that women dress...

    Changes in formal social events

    To get back on topic, I think that Olive Bleu makes a good point. Perhaps one of the reasons for going out to socials and dances was simply a means to socialize. Such rituals probably served a vital function in an era without television (much less the internet). People nowadays also tend to work...

    Changes in formal social events

    Alan, I'm surprised to read what you've posted. I had assumed until now that Europeans had more of a fondness and affinity for dressing well, at least more than their American counterparts. In talking with some European friends, it would seem that they are at least more apt to dress in a...

    What are you wearing today??

    Dork no longer, Ms. Mcgraw! Ms. McGraw, if you don't mind, I took the liberty of doing a little Photoshop-fu, and put a button where there once was none. Dork no longer! RileyDee - love those outfits! If I had you mail me one of those newsboys, how much do they run?

    The I'm-too-good-for-this-job Attitude

    True, but with one caveat: it wasn't founded on industriousness, but it sure as hell runs on it. It's always been a dichotomy of the haves and the have-nots...that's capitalism (for better or for worse). This country does owe its standing from the treatment in the past of certain races - Native...

    The I'm-too-good-for-this-job Attitude

    Wow! This is truly an interesting thread, with lots of good points from many contributors. I'm particularly drawn with what you've said, Paisley. No matter what field, it seems to me that the people who rise to the top have a tendency to keep up with advances in the field, delegate...

    Should tobacco usage scene's be deleted?

    The topic here reminded me of the guns being replaced by walkie-talkies in E.T., as mentioned previously. Absolutely rediculous. As said before, the past is the past. Why the need to rewrite history? All this talk also about cartoon censorship reminds me of a scene in an old Warner Bros...

    Rate My Look

    I'm going to be the dissenting opinion and state that I like the choice of tie knot and collar. As Stanley said, he's going for the British look, which I think he executed nicely. My only criticism is the lack of a dimple in the tie knot, which can be difficult to achieve when trying to do a...

    Could this be a sign as to the Return of the Hat?

    I wouldn't take that picture that originally started this thread as proof. While I don't think that traditional brimmed hats will be de rigeleur as they were 80 years ago, they are appearing as a viable, and once-again socially acceptable alternative to the pervasive baseball cap. While of cheap...
