Holy mother of GOD!

Spoo: Don't you just love Viyella? I think they're great. They never seem to command what they're really worth. Their colorways are always spectacular.

Edit: you guys have me seriously jonesing. With weather, cash flow, etc., I resolved not to go out until I built up my war chest again. But these hauls...

+100 The cotton/wool mix shirts are perfect for days like today. So toasty.

I try to do this with the records. I'm at the point now where I don't need another copy of Led Zeppelin 'IV' or Blue Oyster Cult 'Agents of Fortune'. When I find decent records that I already own, I pile them together at the front of the pile so that the next person who has similar tastes doesn't have to flip through endless Lawrence Welk, Johnny Mathis and weird religious albums. I keep hoping it will catch on, but it hasn't yet.

2nd try! I think the file was too big, I couldn't upload it!
For some reason I always find myself looking in the tie section, even though I rarely have an occasion to wear one:

I have to figure out what I'm going to do with these first, so tentatively n/a.
