No worries, I didn't catch it either at first, plus it gave me a reason to try some dye work.

OH ****, bro! Sorry, I didn't even know it had a stain! Wow, now that's using your noggin!!!

Also for future reference, PTO just put this out:
You never want your pocket square and tie to match. Tie + pocket square sets made from the same fabric should never be worn (let alone bought), but you should also not recreate this kind of look with whatever items you have on hand.

Lol, it was my girl who requested suggested hinted liked it (?) that I match my PS and tie. Lol, yeah I need to get a streamer. Ever since I started expanding my wardrobe, I ran out of closet space. Now, I'm resorting to storing my pants folded in a garment bag...

Yeah, if it were my size it'd already be in a box on its way to my house. I wanted to wear it to a Dawgs game. If anyone finds one similar around a 42R drop me a note.

I'm sure Wes will find one in your size soon enough.

I wasn't sure whether to go public with this or not but then I realized it was too big not to share with the thread. Plus, there's a question that needs to be answered at the end of this post.

First, though, I have to apologize to the person for whom I was their secret Santa. :embar:
Dude, I am SO not on the level of most everyone else here and nowhere near what just happened to me this morning!
It's just not fair to you. May you have a much better Secret Santa next year!


So...I went to the Post Office to check my PO Box delivery that wouldn't fit.

It takes a LOT to impress Reese.

It feels hefty. I'll go by whatever you guys say.
Open it now or don't open until Christmas?
