Paying close attention here, because I just got a pair of white/cream wingtips, thought a nice pair of light-colored linen pants would be all that was needed, but now I see that I am wrong. Stand by for a new hat...

Here I am, being suave on the hammock, sporting my new Panama hat. Except for my chicken legs, I look excellent!

It might be a bit Fedora Lounge cosplay when dressed up (something I’m definitely guilt of), but it’s also a practical hat for sitting outside in polo and shorts drinking beer or sitting at the pool.

I think I’m ordering this one today;

The Capa’s Bogart arrived today. Holland Hats are amazing! Unfortunately my five year old insists it looks better on her:

Missing Guayabera shirt ! ...LoL

I had to look up what that is. I think I have something like that I picked up in Tahiti over a decade ago. Thanks for reminding me, it would go great with the hat and these shoes! (Being a little more suave on the hammock in this pic)

Look great with black trouser and capped shoes as well. It actually formal/business attire in the summer in most South American countries.
