I just loved these photos. Been waiting to post them! Hope they scream summer like they do for me!
The interior of a Jacket. That band, so beautiful.. unlined..I feel the breeze blowing through! 
These are unfinished as they are made to measure. I think Seersucker suits typically have just buttons without a marking for a buttonhole. You can opt for a fake button hole, functioning button hole or just a button. I love my classic blue jumpy I purchased from Mark Mcnairy about 5 years ago, trousers have no belt loops and have sidebuttons to adjust for the hot overstuffed summer days. I may have to go into Ascot Chang for my next suit as I cant stop thinking about a DB! Double vents or No vents is the question..
This salmon colored anorak from WWII surprisingly wasn't snatched up by anyone ! 
This is one of the best Brooks Brothers shirts I have ever seen. I already own a few variations of this shirt by them, but thats not why I didnt buy it. I was beaten to it by the boys who were shopping for Ralph Lauren inspiration. I felt better when i saw that it was priced at $145. To make it worse, it was 14.5 (my size) and if all goes as it should, will be seen in a Rugby store near you. We can only hope and pray it wont be embroidered with skulls and flags all over it. These dealers make it way too easy, I cant blame these designers for not bothering to really dig, wether it be on ebay or our nations thrift shops. And by thrift shops, I dont mean WCGA or Stock.. 
I really liked the pockets on this guys pants and sweatshirt. Interesting how its not a full zip. Cant tell whats going on with the bottom of his pants, were they cut short? gathered? dont know, but they look good! His bag was super cool as well, but this is all you're getting.
I like this shot of jewelry designer Phillip Crangi "shopping" in his green cuffed pants and green rod lavers
Dude from 45 RPM shoping.. I love sweatpants, I dont own a pair but have always wanted a pair. I really like how he paired them with rust New Balance, a flannel shirt and down vest !
Here with a trophy purchase ! I was watching forever to see who would become the lucky owner of this stripe painted oar. 
Not sure if you can tell from this photo, but this man here is in all classics- barracuda drizzler, smedley knit, oxford shirt, dungarees and moccasins.
I love a chamois shirt. Have never seen an orange one. Great way to layer in the winter and I find they especially come in handy in the Spring time. Check out his monocle. And as if the orange isnt enough, Check out this turquoise one.
I saw this fella carrying this here horse and asked if I could photograph it, He paid $400 and was "told" it was Pendleton. I didnt see a label anywhere, there was a tag on its tush, didnt say Pendleton or any company, just fabric contents and made in taiwan i believe. I hope it was at least made using Pendleton fabric but Ill never be sure.. Cool piece none the less.
some more color out there in the fields. Below are some personal scores
I love a beret, His bow tie is from The Grolier Club of New York, the oldest book club. http://www.grolierclub.org/
ON THE EVENING OF JANUARY 23, 1884, New York printing press manufacturer and book collector Robert Hoe invited to his home eight fellow bibliophiles to discuss the formation of a club devoted to the book arts. Although the nine men differed in age, occupation and social position, they shared the opinion that the arts of printing and typography in late 19th-century America were in need of reform. Hoe and his associates were all involved in the editing, design, production, sale or acquisition of fine books, and his invitation fired their imaginations. They were also men of action, and before the evening ended, a resolution had been adopted specifying the purpose of the organization, a committee had been appointed to choose a name for the group, and another to draft a constitution. Within two weeks, a suggestion that the fledgling organization call itself after the great French bibliophile Jean Grolier (1489/90-1565) had been passed by acclamation, a constitution duly drawn up, and “The Grolier Club of the City of New-York” was a going concern. The object of the Grolier Club (to quote from its Constitution) is “the literary study and promotion of the arts pertaining to the production of books, including the occasional publication of books designed to illustrate, promote and encourage those arts; and the acquisition, furnishing and maintenance of a suitable club building for the safekeeping of its property, wherein meetings, lectures and exhibitions shall take place from time to time, likewise designed to illustrate, promote and encourage those arts ….” Breaking that description down into its constituent parts, the Grolier Club is, first of all, a fellowship of men and women devoted to books and the graphic arts. The Club currently numbers over 700 members, mostly American, but including a number of English, European, and Asian bibliophiles as well. Membership is by nomination, and recommendations for membership are made on the basis of a candidate’s passion for books, as revealed in his or her activities as a collector, scholar, librarian, printer, or participation in some other bookish pursuit.
He was coming from an old classmates funeral, I was really excited because I have the same hat, same color and pinched just the same (Worth & Worth) only he wears it much better, his 3 pc suit and those frames! but his knot and attitude took the cake.
He said “we could stay here til the tulips come up”
Without any further delay, I take this time to formally introduce Advanced Style; a blog I have been contributing to that features elders who are killing it for 50 years+ on these here streets and Avenues.
