Re: Ivy League style for today
Good luck F C. You at LBB over easter? If so say hi.
Hoping to get to Mr. Simons gaff this year on Saturday. Last year I made it as far as Euston tube station before throwing up and turning back. Seeing as the hotel was 1 minute away, not very far really.
Just doing a bit of ironing and packing.

Using an Siemens Slider Spaceline Iron. Its the bollox.
Right, back to it...

Re: Ivy League style for today
I think it is interesting what Billax says about the Champions, nearly 100 years old, I mean that is timeless design isn't it? Well if you like them.
More and more I see the root of Ivy, (in my mind, and in its documented proof), was cobbled together on the tennis courts, and rowing clubs of England and America, Ivy is turn of the century sportswear, which makes me laugh, that now 100 years on it is seen as incredibly smart clothing by the masses. But to us it is seen as smart/causal clothing, it is still in the DNA of the clothing to really be clothing for the young and active, and not too stuffy or overly smart.

Re: Ivy League style for today
When you say dartford collage PT, do you mean Dartmouth College?
WM- the lack of fit pics wasn't really a conscious decision. I just took a couple snaps of the clothes I was going to wear where and how I usually lay them out the night before.
I'll see if I can summon the balls soon. I would warn you though I'm not as pretty as you.
Btw, today it's mainly in waterproof clothing and work boots so I will save your mug shot for another day.

Re: Ivy League style for today
I just have to vent -- two deadstock and rare madras Purists in butter yellow university stripe fell victim to the laundry this morning when they accidentally found their way into the dryer's perm press cycle. I'm heartsick fellas, and will be grieving all weekend. R.I.P. to 2 of the best shirts I've known.

Always a shame when nearly irreplaceable items are ruined. It's happened to me a few times. One of the moments when I consider selling off my whole wardrobe and adopting a cheap and simple wardrobe consisting only of white T-shirts, dark Levi's, and PF Flyers sneakers. Things that are obviously classic and readily available. It would take a lot of the guesswork out of picking what to wear.

Liam, it's not about your face, it's about the kit. You could always obscure or omit your face, a la Woolster. It's only the internet. Nothing to be afraid of.

Re: Ivy League style for today
I'm not sure about cherubic moon but hey ho. I say go for it Liam, I'm always a bit disappointed when you can't see the fit from pics people post, it's a major part of whether the clothes look good or not.

Re: Ivy League style for today
I was only pulling your leg WM. What you and the cherub say is perfectly valid and it's been noted for future posts in this thread.
Cheers lads. Guess I'll have to work out how to use the timer now....
