    I'm in.. 38 as of 3 days ago I'll say near Washington, DC but really its about an 1:30 min. commute (little town called Berryville, VA) Married with 3, soon to be 4 kids - Sorry I can't contribute to the list of single men on this board but I am a big flirt if that counts. -Washington

    Dress shirts are dead.

    I was all set to order one from them last night, until I noticed with shipping it came to near $67 per shirt. I'm glad you seemed pretty pleased with them but I did have one question. In the past I ordered shirts from www.bestcustomshirt.com and they worked with me on all the details and...

    Panama and a suit?

    I definately more comfortable wearing it with casual clothes, but I'm changing jobs next week and will be in a suit everyday.

    The Library

    Finally finished ..well almost. I mentioned I was working on this before. Two years ago I finished building out our basement but my office remained unfinished until now. A quite a bit of planning went into this, especially the secret door but I'm very pleased with the results. Let me know...

    Panama and a suit?

    Thanks Gents.. Its as I suspected, I'm going to need a lighter weight suit. To date all of mine are Fall/Winter and wool (browns, greys, blues and black). -Washington

    Panama and a suit?

    All, Last year I got my first hat, a panama from Bob and blocked by Art. This year I got my first felt, also from Art. The panama arrived near the end of last summer so I didn't have too many opportunities to wear it. As the weather turned and my new felt arrived I began wearing a hat with...

    Did You Dress For Easter?

    Rooster, That's my biggest gripe lately. I was raised to always dress appropriately for church; which meant a suit from the time I was old enough to own one. I was appalled that so few people wore one yesterday and I even saw teenagers wearing untucked shirts and jeans. I'm sure the church...

    What's your favorite martini?

    Speaking of sending it back, some where on here you'll see the story I told about receiving in turn, one with olives, ones with an onion, and then finally one with a quarter of a lemon wedge before giving up and ordering a beer. -Washington

    Did You Dress For Easter?

    We did You look sharp in that, Scot It was the one day I wished I had a homburg. Nothing vintage, I'm afraid and I wish I had a picture, but I wore a blue chalk stripe 2 button suit, the only relatively spring tie I own (though it was 49 here today), white french cuff with basic gold...

    What's your favorite martini?

    Not that its a rare drink, but that happens to be my favorite as well. Still I rarely see anyone else order it with a twist nowadays, and unfortunately if it arrives with olives I must send it back. Here's to you. -Washington

    For those looking for a vintage suit...

    Wow! Count me among the easily fooled. Well done, Jovan.

    Your signature cocktail.

    I've found the older I get (and I'm not that old), the more I prefer getting as close to the 'source' as I can. Every now and then I'll think I want a mixed drink as I stare at my overflowing liquor cabinet, but I quickly realize they're a pain to make and I just don't care for them. If...

    Your favorite Scotch? Your Favorite liquor in general?

    Can you tell me more about these...I've been a dedicated Gin drinker (as evident by the avatar) but I've taken to Kentucky Bourbon as of late and really enjoy Elijah Craig. Have to admit I like the price too, as the State Store seems to always have it on sale. I've tried one or two others but...

    Going to Washington, DC in April - Hat store suggestions?

    For what its worth I visited Hats by Haber about a year ago and left feeling very unimpressed. See here...http://thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?t=7972

    Feel like an enigma?

    I find the same thing at church. I was raised that you wore you're Sunday best to church and for men that meant a suit, but lately its pretty much anything goes; which, I find a bit appalling. Thankfully I live in a pretty small town with a fairly older population who still realize what's...

    Feel like an enigma?

    I have simliar experiences at work. I'm in software sales so people know (or at least expect) that I "dress up" for my clients. But we have a casual work environment and most people are in jeans at the office. Though I have plenty of jeans, and on the weekend you'll find me in them and work...

    How to travel with hats

    I actually travel quite a bit for business.. and the last several times I've flown with my one and only Art Fawcett lid. If I'm lucky there is room in the overhead, but most often I either hold it in my lap or place on top of my briefcase under the seat in front of me. Slightly off...

    Custom Allen Edmonds "Chestnut" Spectator Wingtips

    Ok, I'm late into this thread...but Aren't those bottom pair the McClain's? Either way, I spotted a pair in the AE store in Cincinnati on Monday during a business trip. Mind you those are the first pair of specs I've tried on but D*MN they were sharp. I had on a grey glen plaid suit and...

    Silver Mist Fedora by Art

    Beautiful hat! I'm a big fan of his work and they are worth every penny in my book. Can't wait for my next one. -Washington
