New Shirts


We went shirt-shopping this past weekend. It was a success: we came home with two business shirts for my husband - not a small feat considering how particular he is.


While Tim is in the changing room --


salesman: Here's another one. Do you think he'll like it?


me: No, he thinks those kind of shirts look like tea towels.


salesman: oh. 


Salesman walks off and then I notice, he's wearing that very shirt. 


Oops.

  1. Oops, indeed! :)
    I have heard from several people that they saw me on CHEK news, from the Tea Festival. I think that you and I should go halves on someone to help us with spur-of-the-moment responses. I could have done a lot better too!

  4. Hee Hee. Men are so direct and say what they feel when it comes to fashion. Your man know what he likes and he has good taste.

  7. I went shirt shopping as well this weekend and surprised the farmer with a new shirt for the wedding we were attending. He complained the minute he saw it and said it would be too short to tuck in. It was 2 inches longer so off he went looking much more in style. Have a good week Lorrie!

  10. so can I guess tattersall-patterned? Mine is similarly conservative about shirt patterns, but has decided he can go as far as that kind of plaid, as long as it's in neutrals. . . . cute story!
