I may have posted this one. I love the way this is put together, with a funky and casual vibe.

What kind of crease do you call the hat on the left? Looks like he punched it. :lol:

I do believe it is called a Maltese Cross pinch.

Cheers!

I love the pic of the lady in the white hat feeding pigeons. Would look nice framed.

Fedoras and leather jackets, but way different from the Indy vibe. Punk or rock style. It was the punk scene that brought me to swing and retro, so I've always loved guys who mix up their "look".

The lead singer of Rancid, Tim Armstrong.

Image
Bruno Mars is one smooth kid. I love that he mashes up doo-wop, modern R&B, and hip-hop. Beautiful voice.

Image
Hate him or love him, Johnny Depp has one great wardrobe and pulls off anything he wears.

Image
I can't help but like Kid Rock. He's unapologetic about where he comes from and is a big supporter of our troops.

Sadly I don't have a bigger picture of this one. Here on this picture the late Major Dick Winters, from the famous Band of Brothers, is wearing a nice dark hat. Don't know what it is but I thought I would share it with you guys. Looks like it's a leather one, not sure. Also on this picture is my dear friend, also from the Band of Brothers, Clancy Lyall.
