The men's dress style thread..

[Profpointy]

So £300 altogether. I trust they were/are in very good condition for that investment?

Essentially as-new but it was a bit of an extravagance given they are really only for occasional posing

Watched first episode last night of Time, the new BBC 1 drama with David Tennant as a prison officer in a young offenders jail.

Really good. Episode 2 tonight.

I had a mixed reaction on showing those photos to folk, asking their opinion on them. Two women said they like them, with one of the two saying she could easily wear them, while getting slightly over excited about them. But the two I showed them to this evening said 'no way, you aren't seriously going to wear them are you'?! 😯 One of the two said those Cuban heels will be too dodgy for me with my mobility and balance problem, adding that quote...Even Freddie Mercury might've passed on them!😲 Heck, I know I said be honest to them, but not honest ffs!!🙄 Anyway, I haven't worn them, in fact I haven't even tried them on so I could send them back to the seller for a refund. However on showing them to a friend today who works in a clothes and shoes shop, she said why not just try them on to see how they look and feel to me. If I'm not keen then I could either send them back, or sell them in a month or so when they've all sold out for more than the £159.95 I paid for them, probably even asking for their original price of £319.95 Mmm, yes I could do, but I'm not into selling stuff online. I don't trust buyers and to be honest I'm not desperate for the money, so I might just keep them for that one day I think to myself that I fancy wearing them. 🤔

Today's footwear update...

 

[Profpointy]

I probably need to rein it in for a bit, but another rather splendid stripey blazer has entered my wardrobe. Brook Taverner, brand, decent enough quality, and brand new presumably end-of-line for fifty quid off the bay

My word. You'll look like Michael Portaloo's Uncle Quentin!

being in possession of a sloane street discount offer, a couple of days ago i strolled along, and in my leather trousers and pointy boots was given the full ogle by a rather lovely lady, unfortunately mrs s was not present to appreciate it

nipped into dead giogio's and treated myself to a warm-ish top with a blue sand ripple/dune design...

...and was unable to resist this rather spiffy ostrich skin card holder...

That is a risk I guess. I do need to remember that just because I'm not quite as poncily dressed as Accy, some of my recent buys are still decidedly on the poncy side! Still, they are good fun for an occasional pose

Seeing as it's about 5 Celsius out there I've been thinking. To go with the 'Soviet' style coat I got from the retro clothing shop I work in the other week I think a 'Soviet' style fur hat would go very well with it!🤔🧐
