Blazing Blazers

Too striped for me.

 

Ah come on, have a little imagination! That's a perfect 20's styled coat that one could wear on campus. Perfect with some ivory wool pants, a boater and a Ukulele

Twenty Three Skidoo!

 

Nah... I'm a brave guy when it comes to standing out in fashion, but I don't think I could wear that around campus.

 

Mycroft/WildRoot

Could be a nice ensemble for the trip to Oxford Mycroft.

WildRoot, that 23 Skidoo reference reminds me of a song- you know the John Prine one? Jesus, the missing years?

Hummm. It reminds you of that? It reminds me of the 20's.

Any way, I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I would totaly wear that coat!

Ya got to think 1920's! Things were wild in the Jazz age.

You tokkinn a me WR?

Striped blazers and white flannels? sure, that's about as English collegiate as it gets- a boater too- punting on the river? that's classic '20s-'30s Ox-Bridge.

Defently, I could row in that puppy and win in style.

 

When I was a photographer at Butlins (famous British sea-side holiday camps), part of my uniform was a bright blue and yellow striped blazer-that is tame by comparison! I actually quite liked mine.

 

Yea, it is kinda resorty.

 

I like the idea boating in it with a straw hat and in a gondola.

 

See, I knew some of you would catch on! But, that look was also popular over here in the US in those days! The English weren't the only well dressed!

Root.

 

Very true.
