    Laundry Problem

    My wife washed some of my shirts yesterday. Unfortunately, a mouse somehow got into the laundry. When my wife pulled my white shirts out of the dryer they were covered in mouse blood. My wife immediately put my shirts in the laundry sink to soak with some spot remover. She then came and told...

    Management vs Front Line

    I work as a social worker and really enjoy working with my clients. I've had 3 different supervisory/management positions in the past but I've never enjoyed any of them. I always liked working with the people who reported to me. However, in each case, I found the politics and (what I...

    Wearing a Sport Coat or Blazer Indoors?

    I have a few nice blazers and sport coats in my closet. I like wearing them but my typical routine is to wear it on the way in to the office and then take it off once I get to my desk. It then stays hanging in my closet for the rest of the day until I go home. I find this to be the most...

    Wallets: How much would you pay?

    I need to buy a new wallet as the one I own is falling apart. How important is a wallet to one's style (ie. the wallet itself; not the amount of money in it). I'm thus wondering if I should shop for a nicer/expensive one or just pick up the cheapest thing I can find. Opinions?

    Golf Pants?

    I've been noticing a lot of pants on ebay and elsewhere that are labelled as "golf pants." At first glance, most of them look like nice cotton dress pants. Would these be appropriate to wear at the office? How would they compare to regular cotton dress pants?

    I'm interested in picking up a Double Breasted 3/4 length Trench Coat and am wondering if anyone can recommend a brand to me. I love the look of the Burberry Trenches.

    Resisting the Hot Sales Girl

    I just bought a pair of Tommy Hilfiger longwings. They are probably not SF approved but I thought they looked kind of cool as they had a purple elastic piece of material joining the eyelets together where the laces go. I like the shoes...however, if it was not for the presence of an extremely...

    Would you wear a vest?

    What do you think of wearing a vest with a sport coat and dress pants? I'm not interested in wearing a vest with a suit as a suit would be overdressed for my workplace. But what about wearing a vest such as this?

    Just wondering if anyone wears collar bars and, if so, whether they are only appropriate with a suit or whether they can be worn less formally with a sport coat. What are others' thoughts?

    I have bought a couple of items from Orvis and have quite liked them. I haven't seen much mention of them on SF though. Thus, I'm curious what SF members think about Orvis products.
