I haven't had a chance to post in a while, and this was a good opportunity. The guy taking the photo asks me, "Are you in a men's fashion group or something?" ha ha. Merry Christmas everyone!

I found this while out of town at a Dillard's. It's 100% goat suede, in my size, at 40% off, and fits like this. They have only one in my size and it isn't available online (that I could find). Would you buy it and, most importantly, wear it?

With a 35 degree day I grabbed a Pendleton light wool Board shirt I picked up on sale in the spring of this year. Had to cut the tags. Layered it over a CT linen blue shirt and an orange tartan tie I picked up in Italy over 25 years ago. Picked up the weathered navy in the shirt with some deep navy RL cords. Donned a new for Christmas pair of Pendleton socks and to fit the 80 plus year old shirt design grabbed my 1940s Ernest Burrell watch, 1982 Cole Haan Waxhides, a wool raglan shoulder car coat and my Dobbs wool fedora. Now if I can just get those geese outta my yard.
