I also think that he is impeccably tailored -- he looks as if his clothing were an inseparable part of him.Zingiberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13280352710216868683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818519199109196200.post-32657899684351212942013-02-28T17:50:30.308-05:002013-02-28T17:50:30.308-05:00Bubba, not NASCAR, you are sartorially NHRA: doin...Bubba, not NASCAR, you are sartorially NHRA: doin' the 1/4 in 200+<br /><br />NCJacknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818519199109196200.post-89358958416614093312013-02-28T11:23:14.654-05:002013-02-28T11:23:14.654-05:00Flo...I was reading a page from Elegance this morn...Flo...I was reading a page from Elegance this morning where Boyer talks about bending rules and adapting and improvising. The gist of his wisdom was that the people who are good at doing it...your now shopping at Target, friend et al...are people who first know the rules and thus are facile at adopting/improvising/adapting. <br /><br />AnonFlairCuter...it was never a comparative essay or a contest. And anointing me such is kinda like getting an award for being the tallest midget.<br /><br />Squeeze...thanks for the Hymntweet.<br /><br />YoungFogey...and Boyer does it without being high minded or strident.<br /><br />Leopard...thanks. Unfortunately (or fortunately in the eyes of some, for sure) I have no time to write stories frequently anymore.<br /><br />ADGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16612897500610475937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818519199109196200.post-53749547514077540192013-02-28T09:04:52.401-05:002013-02-28T09:04:52.401-05:00Max, this was great.

My mind soon drifted to whether we women have a living spokesperson/model for Elegance in everyday dressing and comportment. It may be in the extremes that such a speciman presents, perhaps it is my friend of many years who, despite her heavily-liened foreclosed house with both cars repossessed, manages to turn herself out elegantly even for a trip to Harris Teeter, simply because she cares. She's shopping at Target these days but she just has a way putting the pieces together, and wearing them with Elegance. I haven't told her so lately, I'll be sure to do that when I see her next.<br /><br />-FloAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818519199109196200.post-11438447239261705862013-02-27T22:51:04.778-05:002013-02-27T22:51:04.778-05:00You have more flair, and you're cuter.You have more flair, and you're cuter.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818519199109196200.post-25587286979023588982013-02-27T22:24:30.568-05:002013-02-27T22:24:30.568-05:00You captured evert nuance of this enchanting gentl...You captured evert nuance of this enchanting gentleman.

ADG, I might add that you are doing a great job carrying on this tradition. Thank you The Leopardnoreply@blogger.com
