Is that a popped collar or are you just happy to see me?

Ah, this little combo made me almost nostalgic. Sounds almost Frosty-Mellorish, but there's something about this person's sensibility and their distinctive linguistic syntax which I think reveals their identity...

Re: Ivy league style for today (part 2)
Whilst poking around a Salvation Army shop, saw Italian made merino v-neck (wrong size and colour: purple, a no-no), nice mustard-coloured M&S lambswool crew-neck (I used to wear their v-neck or RL a lot when working in a school), a Korean-made Towncraft half-sleeve, an Italian-made Cecil Gee sweater. Nothing priced above £4. What would you have done?

Re: Ivy league style for today (part 2)
I would have bought the lot and never worn any of it. But then I’m an addict pissing away the little money I have. Which is unfortunate.
I am though looking forward to wearing a camel coloured Shetland crew neck with a gingham BD when the weather turns.
I’m Nelly by the way. I haven’t posted for some time and it’s nice to see the site back.

I'm truly glad someone thinks so. I've been described as 'Psychotic' In Another Place. But I'm only trying to keep 'TI' ticking over. Good to see you.

Blue today. BB half-sleeve as it's a nice day. Navy BB v-neck cashmere. Made in Scotland and quite pricey a few years back. Navy cords, too. Then the BB raincoat (a touch of Cary Grant) and the trusty Florsheim with the polished-up conker toecaps for quiet contrast.

Re: Ivy league style for today (part 2)
White Makers button-down - buttons unbuttoned a la some people we know...
Cream McGeorge cashmere v-neck - came from one of our American friends way back when...
No-name blue cords - decent enough rise...
The 'grubby olive' (copyright Woofboxer) Dhobi raincoat...
A rather nice 346 cashmere scarf in some unknown (to me anyway) tartan...
Falke socks...
Florsheim smooths...
£85 well spent on shoe repairs, now busily scratching the soles...

Re: Ivy league style for today (part 2)
Florsheim smooths - the greatest shoe ever made? Technically speaking: obviously not, although the quality is superb. Aesthetically speaking: I believe so.
