Re: Ivy League style for today
I saw it Oliver. It was slightly big in the shoulder and the lapels a bit wide for me. Plus I'm poor this month and probably the next.

Re: Ivy League style for today
Thank you for the kind words, Liam. Guess it looks even better in the pics than I thought it looks on me when I looked in the mirror... Shoes you know already, socks are my all time love for stripes and all that stuff. The chambray blazer - although darted and only two button - is one of the more "Ivy" blazers I have due to the natural shoulders, the patch and flap pockets and the chambray. Was a real bargain at € 29,-- at LE's sale 
wears really nicely!

Wow. That's great. I wouldn't wear the socks with it but that's a matter of personal taste.

Re: Ivy League style for today
I'm kinda off the BB trail. The book got less interesting as it went on to be fair. The chapter about the book bags was really hard work. I have enlightened myself toward the early hunting coats and some outdoor clobber. Some of that 30s hunting garb was quite cool. Interesting that Bean was using the term "Wicked" to describe products from the 20s onward. Not a bad read upto the 70s.
Yeah cord, must try and sort one one from some where. Online always ends in tears though.
Matching those blues up is a bit Dandy-you wanna watch that, hipster.

This is sad news Simon. I was looking forward to discussing the best way to keep a Swedish Torch going with you. I guess I'll just have to nearly the set the woods on fire on my own then.
GBN- digging the split toes. I always wish I was man enough for a pair of those. One day, maybe.

Re: Ivy League style for today
Geez, I've been asked for that fellas autograph by two different tellers in separate banks and stopped in the aisles of the Castro theatre by an old guy who had to let me know that his wife and daughter just love me - took a while to figure that one out! I've googled his pictures and I can't see any resemblance whatsoever with that square looking TV character. It's obviously the hair... but even that's not right.

If this were a real life conversation I think an awkward silence would follow that, Simon.
