Have a dig around your wardrobe - you may be surprised

Wednesday, 21 December 2011

Once a man reaches a certain age he may have been collecting clothes and accessories for some decades.  This means the he may unwittingly possess some items which have miraculously come back into fashion.  I haven't worn a tie regularly for a few years and, during an overdue sort out of my tierack, I found a few ties which are probably 20 to 30 years old, but could be worn now with little embarrassment.

    Love the tartan ties! They're equal parts prep school and punk rock. And 100% respectable!

    I'm enjoying the blog, btw. Nice to see stylish men out there!

    Many thanks for the comment jeanofalltrades - yes it's amazing what you can find tucked away in a wardrobe or drawer!

    Being a tie guy myself, I love those ties - especially the woven ones. Beautiful shots of colour.

    I believe a man can express his individuality in three ways: his ties, his socks and his underwear. Two of those with varying degrees of publicity, one of them for special eyes only.

    PS Am enjoying your blog, and apologies for the several posts. Playing catch-up when I find myself with a few extra minutes on hand.
