I received two independent identical messages within the last 24 hours, one from my boss and one from my company president. Both told me about this weekend’s 40% off Brooks Brother’s sale.
Ouch.
I guess this means either:
1. my current fashion is weak
2. my current fashions don’t match my upcoming responsibilities.
Let’s hope it’s number 2. Either way, it looks like I’ll be spending some non-trivial coin this weekend to update my professional wardrobe.
Speaking of professional responsibilities. It’s looking like Korea is almost completely definite. Hopefully I can get my new suit(s) tailored in time for that trip.
or option 3, they both know you’re cheap.
There is no such thing as cheap at BB!
Blech, Brooks Brothers. I never find clothes there that fit my slim and trim frame. I hope you have better luck than me.
Good luck on your trip. Hopefully you won’t be stuck in some barren industrial wasteland and the jet lag fairy will be kind to you.
Why not buy yourself one suit here. leave a few days early and swing through Vietnam or Thailand. If Top Gear has taught me anything, it’s that you can get a hand made tailored suit out of any material in 24 hours for about $50.
