HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part II - Page 2356  

I liked the beard more.

It's a good day in WAYWRN when Fred 49 posts!

The glasses frames are about as iconic as I am going to get at present. As for your philosophical question, I no longer qualify for the former, and I don't know if I have qualified for the latter - when I figure it out, I'll call you


If it any comfort, my chin is cold now, in its hairless state, outside, and you are not entirely alone in missing the Van Dyke, though possibly you are in these fora - votes were vociferously in favor of clean-shaven. If only I could dress to that sort of acclaim .

The Conne Man, rookin' good.

That's why you should only listen to objective criticism (e.g. the jacket is ill-fitting).

recently with the Charles Mingus Big Band at the Jazz Standard

I bloody love that horn. Please tell me it's a naked lady.

no. its not a Conn Naked Lady. Its the P. Mauriat "Jason Marshall" model.

I have to say that contributing to this thread is really making me look at what I wear and how I wear it. Which is in turn making me think about both of the above. For example, my pants here have by themselves convinced me I [edit: 1) need to develop a better collection of pants and 2) need to suck it up and learn to iron.] However, barring that, how is the shirt/sweater combo? edit: I removed these because, quite frankly, they suck. In the future, I think I will practice more discretion.

Titsworth, stand back a bit and observe the clothing posted in this thread. Take some time to notice some points on fit, color balance, and overall aesthetics. The cargo pants and hiking boots are completely opposite of the Brooks Brothers-esque top half - it is asymmetrical. I would actually burn the pants (I last wore cargos in high school, I think, and maybe while chopping wood in a forest). The sweater is at least a size large, and I bet the shirt is too. Basically, I would try to start over.

Cool. How is it Lacquered? Low Bb? Doesn't look long enough in the bell for low A. I love the rod layout - it's what made me think of the Conn.

Very cool. Thanks. I have been trying to do just that. When I looked at the whole thing before hand I had exactly the same thought about the pants. However, apart from that, I've seen what seem to be similar combinations elsewhere in the thread. I posted partly because of that, and partly because I want to know what separates what they're doing from what I'm doing. If this was inappropriate, then by all means, I can remove my post. It's difficult to know otherwise though.

totally missed these two comments earlier today. woulda screwed with your heads and not commented; or said looks great!!




very nice Prestosmp. Dont know how i feel about the matching ps and tie, but overall its a nice outfit. i'll DTO it something in the summer ... forewarned.


- you were missed G ... Panta tie? awesome!
- your snow pants need some tapering





no love for teh saturn?




not feeling it. i think the sweater is jarring against the other elements.


clean - nice mix of grays and blues.


i think you have enough pics to enter EBDRM this year


- why TB? i thought it worked with the outfit.
- wish i could say the same about the shirt ... lol


this would be a good candidate for the Trad Challenge Conne.


nice Rob.


hope we get to see some pics of the roof this summer Fred.

Perhaps because it's been a long time, but this is one of the best I've seen you post. Like how the tie very faintly picks up the shirt. Suit fits great. The first time you did this, I let it pass, but now I've got to say something: stop quoting your own picture. It's tacky. PS I like the clean-shaven look. You dropped a few years. Glasses are - no joke - pretty cool. Good choice.

Jan, this really looks amazing. I'd love to try this myself some time! Have fun flying around!

This looks amazing!


I just wish I could dress up more often.
