Thanks, M/M. I kinda like the clean look of the old one but I have to get a better one sometime. That wall in side lighting is really good for photographing.

An excellent pic, Nik.

That moody wall again!  

[Nik]

Thank you, M/M. Shoulder season makes the best lighting conditions.

I'd love to recreate the original Ramones 'against the wall' shot with four guys in SJC tweed....

30s German leather jacket, 20s Spanish corduroy waistcoat, 40s (US) Donegal fleck tweed trousers in greenish-grey, 30s brocade tie, reverse calf oxfords

A beautiful jacket, Nik. Congrats on that one!

[Edward]

Yeah, looks great. I'm loving how it replaces a blazer in that outfit, perfect for early / mid Autumn.

I like your other leatehr jackets better but it's still a fantastic outfit. Not how much is goin on with textures and fabrics: Wool, leather corduroy, shirting, and the silk of the tie. Still it totally works. Well done. Makes me want to own a cord waitscoat btw. LOL

[M/M]

The judicious use of a tiny bit of hot water would sort out those folded over lapels and the creased pocket.

Then, I think, you will have perfection!

[Nik]

I suppose I could, M/M. I kind of like the rumpled leather, though.

Nice little link with the tie and shoes Nik.

Those who follow me on Instagram or are on my Facebook might have seen this already but posting it anyway:



The weather allowed for a suit although now we're back to warm days and I'm stuck with the polos which isn't a bad thing but I want colder days!

A couple more late summer days for the spectators

I love that Palm Beach. There's something gloriously decadent, somehow, about a Summerweight DB....
