Comments on "On the Street....Gold Buttons, Florence"
has a nautical / navy - like feel.
Is that John Cusack in the first pic? If not, that's his lookalike!
Beautiful "Pea Coat" , the effect of the golds buttons is Great- I want one!
Gold buttons on a rich navy wool? Always a good look as long as the size is right as shown here. i'm intrigued by the third picture - love the buttons high up on the shoulder - i guess they are for fastening a hood? wonder what the front looks like? i loved the Italian posts, how will Paris live up?
I was never a big fan of gold buttons. I think they look gaudy.
love this coat,
I like the third one
absolutely italy!!
loving it
That is a classic piece of wardrobe. I love the buttons around the hood. Any idea about the manufacturer?
oh, pleeeaase give me those coats!!!
I don't especially like this mini-trend. Buttons, I think, should generally first be utilitarian--function before form. When they're fighting to make a statement on their own, they tend to limit one's own freedom to accessorize.
Ooooh...I love the buttons on the hood!
The detail on the last picture is my favorite!
Gold buttons scream for attention. It is a nautical look, one too bold for me to try. The only golden buttons I have came with an old Loro Piana cashmere jacket I found at a thrift store, and on the jacket they stayed, although I would switch them if I knew how to do it. I like the first example, but again it is too strong a statement, and they tend to overwhelm the outfit, IMHO. Jorge from W Palm Beach
Aaaah (sigh) a caban !
I'm a sucker for cabans (and the men in it ...)
I love military-style coats and coats with gold buttons - I don't see enough of them (maybe has something to do to the fact that people don't wear coats in SoFla).
Top jacket is gold.
I know it's not, but it just smells Americana to me.
Good call.
hood buttons are so unusual and interesting
not a fan of gold buttons in general tho...too uniform-like
Makes the coat more playful!
does the guy in the sec pic have white jeans on? whats with all the white jeans....
my kinda bling, old buttons.
I Love gold buttons on jackets myself.. I have a short coat.. pea coat style.. I don't really see anyone else wear it so thanks for the pictures. =)
Hm - the man of the first picture looks great...would love to see more pictures of him...
Nautical in the City. Love it.
I love the last photo! Navy wool coat and gray trousers in the fore flanked by puffer coats, beanies and jeans just out of focus.
And the bare nape of ivory neck and pink, cold ears are just all little boy wonderful. You know he kissed his mum before he left this morning!!
Who is that first man, and when can I marry him?!
nice details....
I'm not crazy about the fit of the coat on the man.. it almost looks too big for him and I don't like the way it bulges when he sits down.
Otherwise it's a good and classic look you can't go wrong with.
Silver buttons look much better on a navy pea coat, check for yourself. But not bad.
he seems the captain of a ship.
AMO os gilden buttons...
Cool Photos!
i dont think silver looks better. in this kind of coats with the navy feel its all about gold and i love the effect. you have to be carefull and be sure to pull it off and not over-do the outfit so that it doesnt look like a fancy dress. but i like it.
hey i got the same it s the duffle coat from Ralph Lauren with the lovely details on front...you should have feature a pic of the front...maybe next time
Since yellow gold jewelry seems to be making a comeback this seems natural...I really like the buttons. They look great against all the navy wool
i love the gold buttons, I believe that it is going to become a big trend.
my idea: buy a usual black or navy or white coat and replace the usual buttons with gold ones.
1st Picture: The jacket looks great, normally the shorter pea coat’s aren't that nice!
Would have worn navy blue leather gloves though, or a lighter brown, of course depending on his shoes.
hehe I have the exact same gloves as the guy on the first pic !
Are there really that many Italian men who wear white pants in January?
wow, I should put some gold buttons on my jacket too!
hmm...those gloves are seriously Pimpin', ready to put the smack down if need be. The coat looks expensive, the gold buttons I like. I wish I could see what is on the button, an eagle? The back of the jacket looks sort of funny, like a fat man in a little jacket. I'm sure its suppose to be that way, I can dig it.
That's the type of coat I'm looking for but in a more girly version :)
Does anyone the brand of the first peacoat? It looks fantastic.
reminds me of David Bowie in THe Man Who Fell To Earth. love it.
I love the first jacket. Looks like it's by Balenciaga. Lovely!
Wonderful caban !
How about some rocker fashion for the hip rocker dad?
-rufus humphrey
yes, it's really me
I love this jacket!!! I`ve seen some jackets like this one in the Fashion Week

Jorge! Please don't tell us you can't sew a button! Please return to the thrift store and find another jacket with buttons you love. Check that they fit through the button holes on your jacket, then just nip off the gold ones and replace them with the new ones.
Then offer the gold ones for sale on here because it sounds like they will be in high demand :)
love buttons on the hood
Now, that's my style. Unfortunatelly i cannot wear something like this in the brazilian heat...
Nice pics.
Can I say OMFG? I love this jacket! The buttons are very cool.
great details those golden button.
I am quite happy: I initite this pea jacket alike from the beginning of this current autumn...
Looks so classy..
These folks look fabulous in their outfits! The gold against the navy blue always looks right & is a classic combination that never goes out of fashion.
Great photos.
Anyone know the maker of the first coat???
