I bought a hawaiian-themed collared (short-sleeved) shirt last year. I am 32.

I am saddened to report it has ferns and flamingoes but no pineapples.

I did buy a pineapple today however. Perhaps this is close enough.

I had to argue with the clerk about matching online prices from their own online store. Went there solely for this shirt for a hawaiian theme birth party.

After the party my wife said maybe I should wear it more often. I laughed in her face a little. It's truly terrible!

I have several bespoke Hawaiian short sleeve shirts. I started a trend of wearing Hawaiian shirts to work and now I got a few other ppl on board with it.

A bespoke hawaiian shirt is the sort of subtle stunting I can only appreciate. Have you ever considered getting a bespoke wife-beater, pre-stained (pardon me, "distressed")?

Picked up something new style wise.

A local outlet was unloading some NOS PZ Sartoriale suits for 92% off. A lot of them were hard 3 button models, but I did find this:

3 roll 2, and reverse double pleated trousers. The arm holes are very high, which was a pleasant surprise. Looking forward to wearing it.

Came out to $340 USD.

Nice find, othertravel.

I just picked up a somewhat similar-looking sport coat off ebay. It's not even close to the listed measurements. It was too cheap to bother with sending back so I guess it's getting donated. Boo. I hope your adventure goes better.

Yeah. Kombucha. The Mrs drinks that brand. Stuff tastes as lousy as his suit looks.
It was a funny plot point in “Glass Onion.”

I absolutely abhor food waste. I take pride in how little gets wasted at home.

Tried a sip of kombucha. The rest went in the trash. Undrinkable.
