There's a full length view in the What Hat thread, but I'm sure that a second photo here for Edward's benefit won't go amissDeal!
" I do however have a very nice grey rayon-linen number from them that will be debuted at this year's July graduation ceremony."
I shall look forward to the graduation ceremony photos with anticipation.

My burgundy blazer is a testament to the tailor who made it. What you don't see from the front is the 1930's style at the back of the jacket. Look at this:
You can see the pleats clearly because it's one solid colour.
The pleats are there, but the only tell-tale sign is the pattern change, so many commented on it.
Tucking my fingers into the pleats allows you to see the tailor's skill.

It's hard to believe that eight weeks ago we were enjoying glorious sunshine. This blazer you have seen before, probably many times, apologies for that, old age and amnesia are bed fellows. It really is an extremely well made jacket, quite obviously made to measure. Tina came across it on a vendors stall at one of the festivals we like to attend.
The countless hours that I have spent trying to find a like for like fabric so that I can get a copy made. Reason is, it's a size too small. The vendor, keen to get a quick sale, let me have it rather cheaply after I had tried it on and reluctantly handed it back, the buttons strained when fastened. He cut the price dramatically and told me to wear it open. I couldn't resist.

Damn fine look lad. Fedora bash right down to Italian calf wing tips.

What a great compliment, much appreciated. We could do with a drop of that sunshine right now, featured in the photo.

57 F and sunny today, but the inevitable, showers later. We used to call that Wimbledon weather, when the Wimbledon tennis tournament, with tennis fans the world over tuning in, would have an exciting match suspended as the rain covers came on. Tina & I have been to Wimbledon, it was a freebie from some company who were courting for business. Fabulous day too.
Tina loves this blazer, she encouraged me to buy it, promising to make the trousers to wear
with it. She did too, taking her cue for the colour from the blazer's stripes. My concern that it
may look like pyjamas soon went. She made my shirt too, I love it.
