HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

[upr_crust]



Fair enough. The only issue I see is the red vest American hunters are required to wear will not go with the full shooting tweed outfit. i suggest you ignore this because you will all stand out enough with the flat cap, plus twos and three piece among a sea of black suits and duck bill shoes.
Maybe you could modify the traditional whistle used to attract ducks to mimic foreign accents? Oh, and you'll need a pointer or labrador to retrieve the prey.
Good hunting, couldn't think of a more worthy cause in one of my favourite cities (even though I am a tourist when I visit, I will dress accordingly so as not to be mistaken for a target).

"Foreign accents" should include those accents from regions of the US due south and west of the Mid-Atlantic States (for myself, I'm just as happy to shoot someone from a red state as from a foreign country).

As for you being mistaken for a "tourist", to the best of my knowledge, you've never presented yourself in oversized, overly long cargo shorts, with a T-shirt and sneakers, and you're certainly not fat enough to be seen as a typical tourist, so I think it will be safe for you to walk the streets of NYC when next you're here - no chance of pot shots being fired at you.

LOL...I agree re the states. Although I was married in Napa my closest friends are in NY and New England is one of the most magnificent parts of the world. Took a lengthy winding drive once, hiring a car in Manhattan and ending up in Toronto where my brother-in-law works....a magnificent experience.

Casual Friday but too simple for the challenge IMO, edit: now that I reflect this is probably TOO casual for this thread, apologies gents.

Banana Republic linen shirt
Banana Republic cashmere sweater, cooler than normal in ME where summah is kind mild anyway, color is much richer irl
LL Bean chinos
Cole Haan suede bucks
"sockless" with loafer socks
