The last weekend of summer was sunny and cool on the Northern California coast. We stopped at a roadhouse for a late lunch and a photo.
Café Saint Rose, the place that provided the backdrop for the photo, is a fairly typical California country restaurant serving very good rustic food on a side road between two small towns.
Saddle shoes, lightweight natural corduroy trousers (also in yesterday's post as they emerged from the out of season closet), ecru silk shirt, dark red ascot, brown flannel overshirt and a green fedora. I could as easily have been wearing shorts and a tee shirt if I were so inclined. Or a parka. It was one of those days when you saw both and the wearers looked comfortable either way.

Great to see that shirt finished, Will. I was wishing I had one last weekend.
You seem to have pulled off the ascot in a way that no stylist working for television ever has.. and with the fedora and the overshirt, you remind me of some stylish character from a period adventure film.
Very nice. Is the overshirt the same thing as a shirt jacket?
The overshirt is a shirt jacket, yes. Sorry to be confusing.
I have just found you! I'm so pleased. I love this sort of conversation. Your blog is beautiful and extremely informative for a blooming designer of men's fashion.
Thank you, thank you!
