Also, I rarely wear wool odd trousers. Chinos are just so much easier to deal with. In fact, I can't remember the last time I wore them.Originally Posted by grimslade
I have and wear wool trousers, but I'm wearing khakis or other machine-washable cotton pants 4/5 days of the week.
Oh - and I love my Rainbow sandals. I wear them quite a bit on the weekends in the summer.Originally Posted by Eustace Tilley
+1--in the SW+D forum, this will get you murdered.
However, the biggest item I wear that I know is "inferior" but that I prefer is Kirkland brand 5-pocket jeans from Costco.Originally Posted by Bradford
I have a couple of kirkland vneck sweaters that are more than serviceable.
I also wear a quartz watch (skagen) as often as a mechanical.
I have several sweaters that don't fit as they should and I don't really care.
My briefcase is a newer model from coach.
On gdl's toggle-back links confession, I don't even own a pair of "real" cufflinks.
I own two leather belts total, and I almost never wear the black one.

my $35 Timex probably gets worn the most
+1 on toggle backs. "real" cufflinks are a pain

Interesting that they put a portait of FDR there. In the Bush years, everything in that room was a landscape or a battle scene.Originally Posted by Manton
How can you even tell what room this is? Eagle-eye Manton

Did they have a two-for-one, like so?
Do you recognize it? The landscape is flat and alluvial, prone to flooding.

That is the first floor West Wing lobby.
The WH can borrow art from the various USG owned art museums in DC. If you are an Assistant to the President (top ranked staff) you have this privilege for your office. You can't take just anything, e.g., the National Gallery's one Leonardo is off limits, but lesser works can be claimed for a time.
