    SF approved/recommended Trad books?

    For ruben: I ordered and just received last week, and have read, "The Privileged Life; Celebrating WASP style" by Susanna Salk (available through Amazon).

    New Oxxford MTM suit - from bad to good

    For a somewhat different perspective; I have 4 Oxxford suits, mostly from Wilkes in SF. All bought on sale, at least 40% off with original prices around $3500 and price paid around $2000. All had a reasonable amount of alterations done by the store's tailors and fit well. (I am a nearly perfect...

    Almost finished-Trad and Not Wardrobe

    During the last year, and the previous two or three, I've added and expanded my wardrobe so it is about where I want it to be; which is fortunate since it now matches my available closet space (I know Patrick06790 believes this is no obstacle but I don't believe my future holds as much more as...

    Bourgogne vs. Bordeaux

    I have about 500 bottles in storage which I dip into from time to time. I've bought them depending on the vintage; for 2000 I bought 20 cases in futures. Now I buy only a case now and again. I think I've tasted enough burgundy and pinot noir as opposed to bordeaux and cabernet to know what I...
