I used to look good in a suit. My first 2 were from Sakowitz in Houston. I had a silk Hong Kong suit, light blue. Wore it to court for my divorce and 8 people asked me if I was their lawyer.

This made me laugh out loud for real.

I carry a 7" handkerchief.. It's good for polishing my sunglasses, and the rare but possible event I need to hand it to a crying damsel in distress. :lol:

Folks like them call it a pocket square. Folks like us call it a handkerchief
Pocket squares are a scam, but hankies are disgusting.
Only if they're full :lol:
How do you make a hankie dance?
Put a little boogie in it!

Customers think I am the store manager because I am wearing a necktie, and I tend to move like I own the place. Clerks think I am from corporate come to inspect them. I much prefer the latter, even if, in each situation, I have to say that I am just a regular person like them.

Some people refuse to believe it. They think they are on Candid Camera.
