Re: Ivy League style for today

^ The Two Fat Ladies.

The show centred on Clarissa Dickson Wright and Jennifer Paterson, travelling the United Kingdom and, for one episode, Ireland, on a Triumph Thunderbird motorcycle driven by Paterson. It sported the registration N88 TFL - for Two Fat Ladies and had a Watsonian GP-700 "doublewide" sidecar which was where Dickson Wright rode.

Very cool.


Too high above the waist was the badge of the hopeless nerd/engineering student.  High waters were also not cool, the right length is the right length and you either grasp it, have the eye, or you don't.

Love the picture quality.

Is that some kind of vintage camera/film, or do you manipulate it through modern means?

Yeah.  My friend Ben took the pic with his phone.  I guess it's an iphone.  I'm ignorant when it comes to personal technology.  I still have an old flip phone.  I can't even text!!

Them pesky iPhones.

As undeniably good as they are, they seem to be giving every other industry a run for their money.

My friends iPhone has an App that can tell you the flight number & destination of an aeroplane if you point it up at the sky.... I kid you not!

Re: Ivy League style for today

Likewise, I'm sure, OCBD. 

My friend has an app that will tell you the price of gas (petrol) in your area so you can find the cheapest.  If you go there and you have to pay more than what the app says, the app will reimburse you the difference with a gas credit.  Now I can get behind that.

Have to say OCBD I like your pics. Basic items but you still have an individual style.

Today in the very minimal uniform which is why summer is not quite as fun as the fall and winter. However, sweater are still needed in my overly air conditioned office.

Worried man, Oliver, and 12 bar blues thanks for the kind comments.

Re: Ivy League style for today

OCBD, I've been keeping a similar Timex in rotation.  Reliable, cheap, and a simple design that I like.  I picked up 4 or 5 different bands in various colors.

Looks a bit small on the collar Leer? Messy knot as well. A shave wouldn't go amiss either, other than that looking good mate!lol

Several mistakes that I made...

1. I WANTED it to look sloppy - failed, looks messy. Collar is big enough, I just fucked it up.
2. Same with the tie, knot looks messy - been in a hurry, and it looks like I'v been in a hurry. Hm.
3. I hate the crumples around the collar. They are there. They weren't there. I guess it has to do with the new placement of the collar buttons. I changed their position to improve the collar roll. Seems that I fucked it up, too.
4. Need a shave. But that's solved quite quickly. wink

Re: Ivy League style for today

I thought something had gone wrong, the buttons are creasing the fabric along the collar bone to the shoulder. Doh! Worth a try though, I like all this experimenting we've clothes even though most of us haven't a clue, I know when I've asked a dumb question cause the tailor at work just raises his eyebrow.
