It was a pretty cool day in the Bay Area considering how hot it was over the weekend. But still not sure how I feel about these pants, they aren't suit separates but they sure as hell look it to me.

I'm not sure I understand the objection to Alan Bee's video posts. It is shown in-thread as a photo unless you click it. If you don't want to watch the video, don't click it. Also, there is ample precedent in the SW&D forum for video posts.

One can tell one is old when one is old when one's closet is full of "vintage" items, and one was the original purchaser when they were new . . .

This comment struck a chord. I can't say my closet is full of vintage items, but there are one or two things n there that meet this definition. I do seem to say about a number of things these days, "How long have I had that? Oh, not long, really, I think I bought it in '91 or '92", only to realize that was 25 years ago. WTF?

Effortless elegance, classically English. Aspirational.

Also, would be remiss if I didn't mention how emulate-able @Cleav is. I'd say "Well done" but he already knows it is.
So much more easily said than done...
