Cool, this is the exact occasion I need mine for lol. Thank you to all the others! I have a few Sid Mashburn items, I can try and set up an appointment.

I don't think Mashburn does custom so you wouldn't need an appointment at the Georgetown store. They're closed on Sundays, though.

The weather forecast was questionable for Sunday afternoon in Front Royal so we opted to keep our ride local. There are some fun gravel roads around Sugarloaf. Sky-mass will still happen though.

Got my wedding tux made by Ezra Paul for that price and no regrets. It’s a beautiful tux and was perfect for the wedding. Would do it over again the same way!

What fabric did you choose for your tux?

In Arlington? We're Virginia's Berkeley! Besides, I will never vote for a Republican again as long as I live.

At least the HS students in your state are protesting the mistreatment of their trans classmates. It still doesn't excuse their parents and grandparents voting for your Governor, but it provides limited hope for the future.

I’m sick of the Suburban Mom here in VA pretending education is so key it allows her to vote like her own Mom did with a clear conscience. Southern women are fairly despicable if you ask me. They could cut their men off at the knees (or slightly higher) if they wanted to.

"THIS JACKET COMES UP SMALL. UNLESS YOU LIKE IT TIGHT, YOU WILL NEED TO SIZE UP."

That was the aesthetic from the Craig-Bond years.

The best way to get yourself a nice umbrella in DC is to find the one I lost earlier this year.
