I don't necessarily dislike it, but the lapel tether always amuses me.

I dislike them. It looks like a #menswear bracelet escaped up a sleeve and tried to escape up through the lapel.

I don't see it as being much different than the silver watch chain hanging into the breast pocket. That was a look worn for many years by some gentleman.

But, this is a pocket square thread and P Johnson is an excellent example to look to for inspiration on how to wear one.

Speaking of, his whimsical squares are very cool. I like the watermelon one.

Can't hang with Spoo or Vox (or Gus, probably), but I think things are coming along nicely

Thanks!

1) Yes. It's one of the Muji squares. I got the Tokyo and New York versions as well. Gave Tokyo to a buddy and haven't opened New York... :embar:
2) Not really. They're hanging from long drawer/door handles repurposed as mini-closet rods. Just behind is the real closet rod with my shirts.

The bars are repurposed cabinet door handles, and the clips are the ones Kent Wang sells with his pocket-square rack.
Aha, smart move. Looks very nice, I wanna buy that pocketsquare rack but $64 shipment to EU more then the whole rack :D
