Scrolling through my eBay listings, "How the **** does this tie have 500+ views?" It was featured in the PTO Friday round up and I didn't even notice.

From my Saks Blazer. Wtf, did he want them to be silver or is he protecting the buttons.

Buttons say Waterbury Co USA, any info?

Could be fresh from the cleaners. My cleaners does the same thing to my buttons. Also, those are the same buttons I have on my BB mainline navy SC.

First stop of the day, had eight Edgar Pomeroy suits in my cart, completely handmade / bespoke, working cuffs, ticket pockets, hand-sewn buttonholes...put them back one by one due to bits of damage. Rest of the day sucked as well save for a snakeskin belt.

So this happened

Maybe he was trying to keep them from being controlled by aliens.

Today was a rather irritating day. Rolling through the suits at one of my regular stops I come across a crazy recent Zegna suit coat. Their current label. This is the first of that label that I've found. $8.99 too, which means the pants were base price as well. I go crazy throughout the store tearing through the men's, women's, kids and sweatpants racks looking for the pants. No sign of them anywhere. I ask one store worker if she could peek in the back and see if the pants were on a rack back there waiting to come out. She comes back and tells me "The pricer said this came out on Saturday and did have the pants with them. This weekend was crazy so if they're not with the jacket, I don't know what to tell you". So some doorknob bought a pair of striped suit pants for $4.99 or $6.99 that just happened to belong to this crazy nice Zegna. Couldn't he have taken the Botany 500 or Stafford suit pants? Gah. Just irritates me that Goodwill stores around here price everything separately. Why not keep the suit a suit? I realize they likely make more money pricing stuff separately but boy is it annoying. Anyway, here it is. I couldn't leave it.

Some other stuff. All available.

Helmut Lang polo. No size but is really small. XS or S probably.

There's something I actually like about this, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

Ah, that makes more sense. And also makes me quite sad. Thanks

The older lady ahead of me in line was trying to buy a case for her phone, but she was .10 short. I paid it and when it was my turn, the cashier let me have this for free.
