^ I was surprised at the number of Danes that smoke. Is it the same in Finland?
Tobacco cheaper than the UK? It clashes with the health-conscious image we have of Scandinavians.

Lets face it, smoking can look pretty cool on some people. This makes it look very cool. I may well give it a go now.
Nice one heikki. Great style.

Re: Ivy League style for today
I suspected it to be vintage... sleeves with only one button are very 60s!!! I have still have the jacket of an old suit made out of navy coloured Trevira - 1967 or '68 - with two buttons. Not more. Very nice detail nowadays

Re: Ivy League style for today
actually, the one button detail has happened by accident, and, a rather stupid one.
a few moons back i was wearing said jacket with an old balmacaan coat on the top. as it happened, i took the heavy balmacaan off when stepping into my car. i was in a rush and hadn't noticed that the sleeve lining in the old coat was torn and a sleeve button of the jcket got stuck. being busy, i didn't notice, just pulled the coat off and the sleeve button got loose and droped into the nearby sewerhole. i haven't yet found decent horn buttons to replace the old ones so i have reduced the sleeve button amount to one. DIY by accident rare ivy

Some pretty dodgy looking Republicans there Patrick. How do you cope amongst the fleeces and cheap tailoring?

I thought he was pretending to take notes. Probably doodling a pair of loafers.
