Oh I see, a hat reference? I don't really get Ozzy when I think of Wraste. VG + Ozzy, well a little more sense I guess.

A local big-box store has linen shirts, color me THRILLED! New shirt, new cane, fave hat, and the silk neck scarf in a style I've not tried yet. Enjoy. (LOL, Just realized how tan I look with a white shirt on! ) And you say you're not steampunk! Looking very dapper, Gabriel |

Very very nice, I must say. I like the fact that the pictures focus is of you and not a busy background. Makes it easier to admire your gun. And I do love that gun. Was it made by yourself or was it purchased? |

Voltin, what exactly is that thing you have stung over your shoulder? I'm almost positive I saw that at the thrift store yesterday. It was heavy and I couldn't figure out what it was. |

It is a Watchmen's Detex clock case. I have the clock for it but installed a plasma light inside. Detex clock's were used buy Security Officer's for over a hundred years. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watchman%27s_clockThanks for all of the compliments everyone. It was alot of fun |

Quite close cousins, I believe- perhaps the black and white bits went to Top Shop, while the white and black bits went to H&M? |

Well i'm fortunate that I just about fit the largest sizes, as their sizes usually go just beyond mine, however they are also the ones that are usually in short supply.

I'm generally a 38", but as this was a 'skinny fit' jacket, I had to get a 42" just so I was comfortable.

I know that feeling. We have H&M here too, and their largest is one size too small for me. Frustrating, as they have some very nice and inexpensive waistcoats I wanted.  I'm a US 46/48, and they only go up to US 44. My shoulders are too big... |

Oh dear, well fortunately the one I picked up was relatively regular, but i'm usually a 42" or a 44" so I normally get away with it. But yes, lets stop derailing this thread with talk of the downfalls of high street shopping. Do you like my attempt at 42nd millenium garb?  |

MrC is a usually a 44, a 42 if its a generous cut. HnM and River Island generally go that high but it is hard. I mean you guys have met MrC, hes not a fatty, he just has huge shoulders and arms! If any girls out there think they have it hard finding clothes, try being a broad shouldered bloke!
