This was for work on Thursday. The Homburg doesn't make many appearances on work days but it has been getting cold. It was also the first time I've worn a bow tie (apart from with a dinner suit) for at least ten years.

There's that handsome face! Well done

Great to see someone wearing a homburg. I love mine and I try and wear one every couple of weeks.

Interesting buttons on that waistcoat too, can you provide more detail?

Cheers. The buttons are just a strange sort of grey, with an almost mother-of-pearl effect. The odd thing is that when the waistcoat is photographed some of the buttons completely disappear due to reflecting the flash and blending in with the fabric.

I have two homburgs: the one in the photo is by Christys, the other is from Bates. That was rather more expensive and tends to be saved for special occasions.

Beyond what everyone else has said...love that scarf.

If you look over my shoulder in the picture you'll see a hanger full of good old British scarves. I started a thread called 'Show us your scarves' which you should find in the 'General Attire & Accoutrements' area. That has lots of nice close ups.

Off to the 'Bay.

Ok, I believe that by now you are heading towards the knit-tolerance-limit (I am not, but then I'm an addict) - so I'll quickly show you the last one before I disappear to look up more yarns
3 piece ensemble , of which 2 shown, of mid 30's inspiration. The piece missing is a short sleeve sporty blouse.

I have to say I am very happy with this and very grateful for my mother's hard and wonderful work which is now bearing the right sort of fruit.

Your mother is very talented! Darling outfit

Crazy Daisy and Mario... well done as always!

Thank you rue!

I actually felt a bit insecure showing off that jacket as it is one of those 70's-does-the-30's sports coats...

Cassie and I had engagement photos taken 3 weeks ago. There's over 100 pics so here are 4 of my favorites. I'll post a few more up later.

Wonderful photos ... great to see you two so happy!
