Re: Ivy League style for today
The stripes have it today.
I'm liking the Gant especially. If I got one in a small it may even come up as a half sleeve on me. Rather tempted.

I read that as pudding. That shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.

Re: Ivy League style for today
Nice casual stuff on offer. Tis the season I guess...
Those stowed in my pocket are my regular specs.
Went to visit my parents today on my day off (Memorial Day). Drove about 60 miles round trip in my '59 Ford Pickup, which is probably about the farthest I've driven it since I've been doing lots of work on it. The old truck ran great the whole way but some lady in her SUV rear ended me at the traffic light. No one was hurt, but my rear bumper's trashed and the lady's SUV was pretty knackered. Did way more damage to her than me. Not to mention, I can just bolt on a new bumper. She'll probably need a week or so in the shop for repairs. Mrs. Worried Man's coffee all over the cab of the truck and my pants, but not a drop on the Gant. : )

Don't forget to fix your bumper above your bookcase ala Chens.

Oh, man. If I can talk boss lady into it, I'm totally going to use it as wall art.

Re: Ivy League style for today
Haha! It looks redneck a-plenty in its current state. It definitely fits into my native Georgia heritage. And, objectively, I see how people think they're really ugly. The comments I get from people are usually "GOD, That thing's so ugly," or "Hey, would you consider selling it?" It's just a stark, utilitarian vehicle. People love it or hate it.
I posted an older pic of it in this thread, along with my former "oldies".

It's a work in progress, but it's getting close to having a fresh coat of paint. I'm going two tone, with a completely stock original farm truck look. No hotrodding or customizing nonsense. Something along the lines of this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/hartog/7564361702/lightbox/

Re: Ivy League style for today
WM - I have been plotting the graph
I'm almost certain your rise on your trousers varies directly with the aud$ to u$a price.
Sadly I think the aud$ is going down compared to u$a.
I'm worried about how you will adjust.*
*NB small word play - "worried" and "adjust" waist.
Thank You

Looks good PT. FXH, I admire your attempt to apply economics to my rise. But funnily enough, when it comes to matters of economy, I usually come up short. HAHA!

Re: Ivy League style for today
some excellent weekend looks going on. As ever I don't post at weekends so catching up now.
Liam, think my missus go one of those bird badges last weekend. Didn't get any shots, but wore a mixture of sta-prest, madras, chinos, denim and mocs.

Re: Ivy League style for today
I sometimes use it to mean tired or "beat" or in this case broken or worn out.
"I was too knackered after work to repair my knackered bumper."
Never heard it used for genitals. That's good.
And welcome, YoungIvy.
