An Affordable Wardrobe in Person: a preview

As I get all my things in order for tomorrow's Menswear Shopping Party at Raspberry Beret, I thought a little teaser might be just the thing:
Summer may be well under way, but it's never too late to pick up a few choice warm weather items to sharpen things up a bit. Plenty of lightweight sports jackets in hopsack, khaki, poplin and plaid to coose from...
... a handful of classically styled dress shirts...

lots of trousers, from khakis and reds, to tropical woll dress slacks, and of course, a little bit of the old "go-to-hell' jobbies. Check out those brown and white gingham checks. Some guy whose smaller than me is so lucky that they don't fit me...


...just like at Top Shelf, I've got a fresh haul of classic neckwear, with a couple of novelties for the more adventurous among you...
Alden, Florsheim and Sperry are just a few of your choices in footwear.

Please pardon this little bit of self promotion, but like they say, if you don't ask you don't get. Stop by with your best gal to shop and chat about clothes. How often can you both do that in the same place, anyway? Afterwards, you can treat yourself to some lunch at Changsho or the Chez Henri. And come early, before the Mimosas run out.
An Affordable Wardrobe

  1. If you ever want to sell some size 7/7.5 shoes, small men's shirts/large kid's shirts/blazers, get in contact with me! Thrifts in Canada lack a good selection of these, and I can't make it to your shop days in Boston!

  5. I'm pretty new to your blog (been following it for a few weeks now) so this might be something you have addressed before, but is there a way to get my hands on your great looking collection without traveling all the way to Massachusetts (I live in Texas)? It's hard to find this sort of a mensware selection around these parts.
