Haha, yeah, we truly are riding the big waves of what can be done, good thing too!
You beat me to it Richard, just fantastic the Woolster. I have the utmost respect for anyone that has the confidence & balls to post a picture of themselves on here.Woofboxer & the Woolster never fail to inspire and impress me. Bravo guys.
Aye, cool guys the pair of them. Loved that last look Woof. If I didn't know you were a copper I'd say you looked like a copper.
Ville, lovely cardi. Not saying you should (I wouldn't) but if you changed the Purcells for brogues or loafers or boots you could be straying into early skin/peanut/hard mod territory there. The lines between styles can be paper thin. A nice thought that I like to keep close.
Like it Woolster, had to go back to see Woofs, bit to MC Hammer on the trews for me, rest looks good. I'd ditch the copper face though. Someone might start throwing petrol bombs at you.*
*Not me, I have the utmost respect for the police.
Love that shirt H! I saw it on etsy and fancied it. Too big for me... think I linked it to someone (might have been you, dunno) but glad it went to someone on here anyway.
The stripe is really cool.... and the collar! Perfect!

I don't think you sent me a link. If you come across anything similar then please do. I was bait dubious about buying it because the seller said it had iron marks on it, but I can't find them.
Its always nice when you get a seller who lists flaws... and then you can't find them. Much better than the other way around.
I will do H. I'm looking out for similar myself in dark colours so I dare say I'll turn up something. Like wise, if you see anything like it about 19/20 pit to pit let me know.
Candy/awning stripes are it for me just now. I'm also mad for medallion prints right now having found a nice shirt a month or so back.
12BB, where are those trousers from, if you don't mind me asking?
Thnk you Captain. Colin the trousers are from M&S, I had them altered a bit and I'm very happy with the result.

Went to a Singapore government sponsored business and social lunch today so went as Ivy as my wife would let me as I was told not to wear my Golden Fleece suit Lightweight pleated khaki trousers, Brooks Brothers green striped long sleeve shirt, brown patterned slip on shoes with socks, and a slim Seiko watch (Singapore commandos watch of choice in the early 1990s). Dressing Ivy works every time.
Someone needs to show the youngsters in the Singaporean Prime Minister's Department how to dress. No doubt they were 'branded labels', but looked like down market department store. White shirts need to be one-hundred percent cotton and black is unsuitable, except for a dinner suit. A dash of colour goes a long way. I admit to having bought a black suit, but it is an Arrow, and was bought close on a decade ago.
Finally I may have a few size 17/17.5 long sleeve bespoke, Brooks Brothers/Andover Shop/Ralph Lauren US made long sleeve cotton shirts for sale. I have lost weight, and put some muscle bulk back on my neck and shoulders, so they now 'blouse" at the waist. Off to a slim fit.
I'm liking that Adam.
Lots of good stuff from the young lads recently.

I had a lovely lunch in London’s little Portugal, (south Lambeth road) Grilled Sardines Vino etc
A complete stranger came up to me and said i looked like a retired Bank robber.
Or an old football hooligan (really not the look i am going for) so much for a timeless classic style.

South Lambeth Road ? I remember when you used to be able to park all day in Fentiman Road. I knew all the rat runs as far as there. Fine Courage pub in same road popular with MPs as close to Westminster. Remember a Portuguese wine bar down there a bit later - early 80s.
