Let me take this post to remind you that variety is the spice of life! Different eras, different countries, different ages - post them all!
Is it just me or is this kid seriously cool? 1960s (I think) in Japan...

Thank you very much
jun3machina !
Ladies and gents, you might have already noticed that my pictures are a little guy-heavy. I just personally find some of the fellas clothes a bit more easy adaptable. Like these guys, especially the guy on the left. But there will be more pictures of ladies to come! (Especially if you post them!
)

Sometimes the ladies are bit too formal for me....but this lady? Like the belt, love the attitude (circa 1910s).
