An Elegant Remedy
It’s allergy season again. The worst part of the year. It’s too hot to cozy up like one wants to when sick, and the sneezes and sniffles put such a damper on picnic revelry.
Going Gingham
The last summer or two I’ve really found myself wanting a gingham dress shirt, but just haven’t been able to find the right one. Often the pattern is too large, looking more like what you’d sit on at a picnic than what you’d wear to one. Or the pattern is simply too small and looks like your run-of-the-mill micro check. Finally though, I snatched up this burgundy number in the Brooks Brothers spring sale.
Hot Feet – Bresciani Novelty Socks
I’m not typically one for so-called “novelty” garb, but as with all rules there are exceptions. A friend of mine was kind enough to think of me and send over the above pair of Bresciani hose, which are certainly a novelty.
Getting a Good Read
Anyone who know anything about me knows that some of the few things I like more than fine clothes and a good drink are books. So when they have to do with dress and drink, all the better. Sadly, unlike the demand for the latest pulp novel, demand for the best menswear tomes often wanes and they don’t get reprinted.
