HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

[upr_crust]



Goddamn that's a giant noggin'.

Quite, and the giant noggin is covered in the hirsute equivalent of a tropical rainforest, a veritable Amazonian jungle of follicles (possibly with its own branch of Greenpeace to protect it).

(Noted by someone wearing the Sahara as a hairline.)

Pineapple Express Friday

where did you get that jacket? and have you contacted them about their return policy after being shunned on the internet?

I got it from Bloomingdales in NYC, prolly 11 years ago. Coincidentally, it was pouring on that day, too.

It has a nifty snap-in wool lining which can also be worn as a jacket. I'm sorry for you that color makes you feel squirmy inside. I think it's splendid.

how many earrings do you have SB? anyone else with me curious want to see his earring collection?

I hate to disappoint, but you are seeing the entirety of my earring collection. Once I cut off my dreads, I got rid of all the dangly stuff (it looks, to my eye, out of place with a shaved noggin) and wore only these and a pair of studs. The studs were cheaply made and reactive, so I got rid of those, too. And here we are...

Forgive me Forum, for I have sinned.

I wore baggy, wrinkled sweat pants, and a ratty sweatshirt, with Crocs to the hardware store this morning.

I will try to do better.

Say three hail marys and purchase a new sport coat.

Pics or you never had hair.

I'm still confused as of what day of the week is in your neck of the Sherwood; technically, at 14:44 EST there is a Fri and a Sat around the world

As I have explained before. It is Friday in California. Yesterday was Thursday and the day before was Wed. Butttt way I see it everyday in CA is Friday because the sun is shinning all the time. I love LA or at least that is how the song goes

its not silk.
and did i just get a "not bad" from the foo? hot damn that makes my week!

It's not silk? Looks it. Shouldn't be folded in any event. Only linen should be folded. Cotton squares shouldn't even exist, so I don't know how to make rules for them.

I'll just put this here...

I picked this Simonnot-Godard 100% cotton pocket square up yesterday at Barney's on sale. I believe they make the finest cotton pocket squares in the world. The fine weaving of the fabric, its finish, the hand sewn edges and most of all, their delicious colors put them in a pocket square category all their own.


The colors of this are more suitable for spring and summer. So, I will put it away and look forward to enjoying it when the warm weather returns.


By the way, Barney's had a lot of their Simonnot-Godard cotton solid blue or blue or white with simple colored border pocket squares on sale. It is an excellent time to pick up these elegant classics. Cotton isn't quite so formal as silk making it ideal for more casual, expressive dress. I also like to contrast a cotton pocket square with a silk tie for variety.

Holdfast
"great core outfit; really not a fan of the orange (?leather) jacket on top though. "

It's a raincoat, HF, made of rubberized cotton.

Quick question: Are the images broken in this post? http://www.styleforum.net/t/234255/hof-what-are-you-wearing-right-now-part-iii/40600_50#post_5937473

I can see them on my phone, but not on my 'puter. I've reloaded the page, re-inserted the images, and logged out and back in with no change.

i guess i shouldve been more clear on details when i posted to save you some face...but it is a linen burgundy square. which is why its folded.

D, did they style you at all or did you pair everything yourself?

D, did they style you at all or did you pair everything yourself?

all the clothing is mine....she comes to my place and brings her samples. we both go hrough my closet and find things. Its really nice to have an outsider dig through and try different things...she's paired such obvious combos of mine together that i for some reason NEVER realized. she trusts me probably far too much and leaves a lot of it up to me though.

 

[RDiaz]

Like the tie, D.

+1. Ancient madders look great with large patterns IMO.

If I've learned one thing here, it's that you should never question yourself... Leave the questioning to the anal-retentive assholes on the internet.
