    Please... never ever polyester. Suits from Brioni, Corneliani, Hickey-Freeman if you will... always wool or other natural fiber, i.e. a nice silk sport coat.

    For more than 40 years I've always worn french cuff shirts when wearing a tie. Over the calf socks for the gentleman, if you will, while wearing business attire. Leave the cutie pie stuff for the club.

    And curse who ever came up with the idea of no socks with business wear.

    OK, I know I'm a fogy, so sue me.

    I'm glad you're doing well at your job!

    I seem to have a niche for matching shirts and pants and ties....I never thought about it until my husband had to dress up for work and would pick out some nasty color combinations for himself, so I took over and hung everything already matched together on one hanger. I have a hard time matching stuff for myself, though, which is why I always wear jeans or tan or black pants.

    I didn't understand the fad of wearing a solid tie the same exact color as the dress shirt...I think that was the Regis Philbin thing a few years back. Has that gone out of style now? I bought my husband some new dress shirts a few weeks ago, but he has a large tie collection thanks to me, so I didn't even look at them.

    Oh, and why do navy blue pants usually look the same color as black ones? Maybe I am just colorblind or something.

    Obviously none of the respondents live near a beach.... My decision in the morning is nudity or or something similarly loose. Ok Ok Going to work requires a little attention but I thank my stars that live in a "hippy" town where just about anything goes...One button or two on suits? Oh dear G A L!

    What is the deal with three buttons on a jacket? I hate that look! I look lopsided wearing such a cut. When did this particular aberration become the norm?
