With the family out for a few days, it's a combo work-from-home day and shopping day. I have been looking at the second-hand market or a fedora for several months. Unable to find anything I wanted to try, I found a good fedora specialist in Santa Monica that focuses on the intro to mid-level cost hats from quality vendors. One of these is shown in today's outfit, so let me know what you think. The high-waisted pants are still a bit unusual in their look to me, without a vest of jacket that is. Saturday Casual Cool-Day Outfit — Home & Shopping • Shirt — HS‑008 (Brisk): A sheer-white cotton-linen hybrid shirt with a band collar, concealed placket, and subtle sharkskin-like weave. The relaxed collar and breathable fabric keep the outfit casual and textured; no collar stays are required. • Undershirt — US‑007 (Pro Club): A chocolate-brown cotton crew-neck undershirt with a comfortable fit. Its warm color remains discreet beneath the white overshirt while supporting the outfit’s brown palette. • Trousers — PN‑012 (Fort Belvedere): Dark chocolate-brown Stancliffe corduroys in substantial cotton, with a classic cut, cuffs, and matte finish. Their rich texture establishes the cool-weather foundation without becoming overly formal. • Belt — B‑015 (W. Kleinberg): A chocolate-brown calf-suede belt with dark-brown stitching and a silver steel buckle. The suede complements both the corduroys and braided shoes, creating a coherent brown leather story. • Footwear — DSh‑019 (Carmina): Dark-brown braided suede slippers on Carmina’s Simpson last, with chiseled toes, full calf lining, leather soles, and Goodyear-welted construction. Their intricate texture adds sophistication while retaining an easy slip-on character for shopping. • Socks — DSo‑083 (Mazarin): Dark-brown over-the-calf cotton-blend dress socks with continuous ribbing and a matte finish. The monochromatic design quietly bridges the trousers and shoes without competing with their textures. • Ring — R‑001 (Ellie’s Jewelry): A platinum-and-diamond wedding ring. It remains the outfit’s personal constant and provides a restrained bright-metal accent.

Spending Saturday with my favorite human!! Some chores, Some Errands, brunch at the local diner, then a BBQ for our younger sons birthday 26 😳 Have a great Saturday everyone!!

Hi all, Because my nose is mostly broken (for smelling - not structurally), I tend to prefer parfum level concentrations on my fragrances. I went to Nordstrom to get my first exposure to Green Irish Tweed (excellent!) in their only concentration: EDP. I have also had EDP of Wild Vetiver. Does anyone known if either of these come as parfum concentrations vs. EDP? If so, are the smells similar but just stronger or something rather different? Thank you!
