Have you heard about the "Tweed Ride?" I find it fascinating that people of all ages will ride donning their tweediest fashions.
I can imagine wearing a tweed jacket or vest and some sort of pant with a bit of lycra and perhaps even a tweed bike helmet! I love herringbones and houndstooths and tweeds for Fall.
What would you wear to the tweed ride?

That coat if it were mine! Sounds like a fun time...Janell
Good morning, PVE,
...a subtle but complimentary stripe shirt, turtleneck sweater,
a great scarf, boots and a hat--
you can dress that coat up or down.
It's a houndstooth???
Have a fashionable Monday,

(saw your pic on The Vamp's blog,
gotta get the magazine)
I love the McL tweed jacket. I'd wear a Harris Tweed Jacket, may be a tweed cap too!
Janell -
I can just see you sitting pretty on a bike that you have perhaps painted with "chalkboard paint" and sporting some fabulous tweeds!

Barbara,
Yes, that coat is a houndstooth...I found a houndstooth sheath dress for fall! I love fall tweeds, donegal, harris, and all the rest.
Thanks for popping over to the vamp - she is an amazing lady - it was great to meet so many other wonderful bloggers and guests of Eddie & Jaithans.
happy monday -

2 hippos,
Would you have a little hand whipped edge...in a pop of color? I can see you sporting something quilted...

Maybe a warm scarf around my neck. Have a golden day! xo
I don't know what I would wear but shopping for it would be so much fun! New boot for sure to go with my found tweed maybe.
Love it...certainly a black turtleneck and fun scarf! Happy Monday!
That sounds like such a fun event. I have a few great options but would need a bike to participate. I would want an old school teal Vespa to play off my tomato red tweed skirt, a chocolate cord jacket with elbow patches and would need to hunt for a perfect scarf to fly off in the wind. I'd want a Snoopy vs. the Red Baron type of hat and goggles. Hee hee! Love brainstorming on your blog!
Sounds like the tweed version of Breaking Away. I just LOVE tweed, herringbone, houndstooth and all versions of classic fall fashion. Hopefully it would be cool enough to wear a turtleneck, jacket and either cords or jeans. What a great event.
Since this is all fantasy, I would find on auction something that jackie O wore while riding!!! hehe. then buy it. but of course, it wouldn't fit me at all, but that's part of the fantasy, no?
The coat is lovely. I would wear it when a wonderfully lime green or red trousers, but I'm quirky;-)
Maybe the whole English tweed thing would be fun....such a concept....I would love to be on the sidelines with my camera most of all....xv
Oh yes- turtlenecks and thick loopy wool jackets, tall boots and cashmere scarves. This is my favorite season for dressing.
Let's dress and go to lunch~
The jacket you illustrated or the one you have pictured- very nice. Especially like the bit of fringe edging.
I'd love the j mclaughlin jacket with black skinny pants, riding boots, a great scarf...I can see you now - you'll look fabulous!
I have no idea what this is, but it looks and sounds adorable regardless!
Tweed would look so great on you!!
How great is that! The poster is so witty! I would wear a mid-thigh autumn colored jacket with a long plain skirt and a ruffled slip under it with a great pair of boots, and don't forget the scarf!!!
Tweed = autumn for me.
i love pairing tweed with vintage denim and leather. so rl.
