Where/how did you get the VAN Heikki? Their stuff looks amazing but i know it can often be very hard to deal with Japanese companies.
p.s. You make the yellow gingham look great, something i'd never really considered before

That RRP didn't half talk some bollocks - and how his words, his narrowness of view, now come back not only to haunt him but bite him on the buttocks.
He is now the proud owner of three pink shirts (two Brooks, one Duck Head) plus a cashmere v-neck sweater (and might consider socks).  He is also the proud owner of a very pale yellow shirt (Brooks) he may well put to good use tomorrow.

What must have come over him? 

By a strange irony (or something) my lady of ten years back was indifferent to pink shirts.

Orange can be tricky.  I used to own a couple - one Ralph Lauren, one Sero.  I think The Weejun might have owned the same Sero ('Mango') - doubtless a few years before I did.  The others, though, in warm weather - why not?  I'm a changed man since rediscovering muted pastel shades.  The white/blue/stripe/check habit is understandable but limiting (I decided).  'Classic' but limited.

My word, speaking of conservative dressing, just check out Bill Evans on that Trio sleeve/cover.  Magnificent - aside from the Don Draper collar.
