Comments on "On The Street......26th St. Flea Market, Chelsea"
Opera pumps are for the opera.
The shoes! The shoes! And are those striped socks?
You usually dont see stubbs and wooten for casual winter wear, good and intresting choice
LIKE: Quilted jacket is cute. Great fall colors all around. Great haircut.
DISLIKE: The shoes are off. They're more suitable for formal or lounge wear and it doesn't jive with his country look. He should've worn brogues or wellington boots instead.
I like the clementine color jacket!
Gosh -- I didn't realize that Chelsea flea market was such a stylin' place to be
great mix of color and pattern and then he goes too far with the cutesy pumps which may be ok in certain zipcodes for mixing 'tinis by the fire but not in the morning unless he's just on his way home from a night at Studio 54.
The shoes: I see this guy in Chelsea almost every weekend and he always has on the same shoes. LOVE the orange jacket though!!
It's engaging trying to figure out people by their look. This man looks like he is very taken with elegance yet, for the flea market, wants to give it his best country-gentleman spin. It doesn't quite work for me but I do like how he's having fun with his style. Good for him!
What's filling the neck area? An ascot? Agree that the shoes are all wrong, but everything else looks great.
I don't see the great thing about this man.
There's a lot of color here! But rather be overcome with it (or shy because of it), he seems comfortable.
Eh, must be the socks.
mltt
Orange is not my color but it works for him.
Let's hear it for layering....and his orange quilted coat; but the embroidered--what to call them?--slip-ons are effete, over-reaching and just plain wrong for cold city streets....
Sheesh, way too much aristo costumery going on here! The only good thing is the color of the hacking jacket.
nice, but i feel as if you've shot so many of this style already.
Ridicules, ces chaussures!
The shoes?!? No, not the shoes,those socks are not striped they are white! yikes!!!
The man is a cuteheart!
I love his confident look, and if those shoes are part of his style statement, so be it!
Love the jacket! Pos-neg is right about a vibrant color accent. And to me, its more "coral" than orange or clementine, don't you think?
Nice picture. The signs next to him are a good backdrop.
Sart, I know you're out on the street, working quickly, so I am continually impressed by the wonderful backdrops you choose for your subjects! They are consistently excellent.
He breaks every rule and I just love it ! Well done !!!
ooooh, persimmon! this fellow knows what he's doing -- he could so easily have crossed the line into caricature here, but this is masterfully assembled and he wears it well.
i love the orange jacket and his country look,i do think that a pair of "Belgian"shoes in brown would have been super with his whole outfit......can one still buy Belgian shoes in NYC?
But i do not see why he can not wear his slippers on the street,if he feels comfortable in them,our feet have to carry us around all day,Bob Geldorf went furthur,and wore a pair of black velvet embroidered slippers,from Trickers in Jermyn Street in London,right across Ethiopia.That elegant style,bearing a monogram,crest or decoration in gold wire,is known as an Albert slipper.The best slippers are made with padded interiors and light leather soles,and they are as loved and cherished by fathers as they are feared by their sons.
It looks like hunting gear in Wisconsin.
he looks like a soap star.
The shoes make me cringe. Not sure why.
HOT!!! A very English look. He must have money to burn to wear those shoes on pavement though!
Knockout....apart from the shoes as many have commented.
Every item by itself is very nice. But, together the look is just too much of an attempt to be a Greenwich antiques dealer. It's too studied to be fun.
"Opera pumps are for the opera"
Indeed if they happened to be opera pumps. Except they are velvet slippers and as was said are not ideal for city streets but at home with your smoking jacket and fireplace. Although its up to him where he chosses to wear them. Just thought i would clarify that.
I wear velvet shoes with high water jeans and a Thom Browne shirt. Call me crazy but it works for a funky night out.... Oh and no socks please.
Is he wearing a Barbour jacket? Didn't we just see that on a stylish gent a week or so ago in black. Orange is a strong commitment. Good for him! I do agreee though about the shoes. Seems brown suede boots or Chestnut suede wingtips would have been great.
So enjoy the blog Sart! Thanks for giving us Style nerds a place to chat! My wife just said, "I think you have found your hobby."
"I like to hunt in class...at flea markets. I've got money (so states my bright safety-orange, I-hunt-quail-at-plantations-jacket), but please antique dealer, give me a bargain on those quaint salt and pepper shakers?"
he's wearing the traditional native dress of my people - the WASPs, who inhabit the eastern seaboard region of North America - so he seems perfectly normal in attire ... except for the footwear.
those slippers strike a jarringly wrong note - it's like wearing a turban with a kimono.
Orange and moss work well together...as for the quilting, with his body type I would avoid it - makes him look heavier than he is.
The shoes are a bit off - but then he might find them the most comfortable on earth to wear outside. Wonder what he wears when it rains.
too dressed, though i love the orange coat. mama never thought you to remove an item after you've dressed up?
Nice colors, but the look appears way contrived to me.

Iconoclast. Love.
Ralph Lauren velvet indoor loafers for outdoor usage. NO NO NO!!!
Sir,
Being English, I have to say im not very fond of the idea of wearing slippers outdoors but, this look is so outrageously vulgar that it's gone round the bend and looks good. If you see what i mean?

ps.he is wearing Church's slippers ds.
Great choice of orange quilted coat, unuaual, but sets off an interesting slightly flung-together look. The green and browns are all good together, but the shoes are silly - a pair of good brogues would have been so much more appropriate.
