It's nice that you appreciate feedback. I also suggested to widen the leg opening on your trousers time ago, but you seem to stick to your usual narrow one. I understand that you wear what you have, but I would still give a try. Pretty sure you won't regret.

And yes, Italian tailors and fashion brands are mainly responsible for the skinny trousers. Not a reason to follow though.

EDIT: I love wide leg trousers, but if it's not your preference, you could still try something in between.

Just got my thrifted trousers back from the tailor. He put a 2in cuff on them like I asked him. Mind you these aren’t high waisted trousers. But I have to work with what I can afford right now. I think he did a good job. What do you guys think?

For some reason I can't quite figure out, something in the garden at the USC Pacific Asia Museum in Pasadena CA made me think of an old joke.

A dog stood on the railroad track.

Woo Woo (or in this case Foo Foo).

Doggone.

Although National Cream Tea Day isn't until June 28th, had a cream tea at the Tea Rose Garden in Pasadena CA on the way to the USC Pacific Asia Museum which is around five blocks east of the Tea Rose Garden.

Unlike some, never have to deal with the which goes first, jam or clotted cream quandary since I only use clotted cream.

Ahem… you realize it isn’t Dorian Green on the picture ? Just wondering…

Great pictures as usual @Roycru !

Your style didn’t change much for 10 years @An Acute Style
Whoops… my bad 🤣 Great suit nonetheless.

Speaking of which, I was just re-visiting Vox’s old pics and I have to say, his Steed Bespoke suits were as close to perfection as one could get. Whatever one’s thoughts about the guy, he had style in spades.

For those who have no idea what I’m talking about, google Vox Sartoria + Steed Bespoke. Enjoy…
