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.
Oops, indeed! :)
ReplyDeleteI 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!
Oh that is funny. I'm trying to think if I've ever seen those tea towel shirts! LOL...
ReplyDeletefunny story! I would do the same. The shirts look nice though!
ReplyDeleteHee 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.

oops...too cute..have a good week...
ReplyDeleteDid you try to put the other foot in your mouth?
ReplyDeleteI 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!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Poor salesman...he'll be looking for a new shirt. But what's wrong with a tea towel...LOL!

I think we've all had similar moments at some point or other!
ReplyDeleteso 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!
ReplyDeleteToo funny Lorrie! We leave to California on Sunday, so we were clothes shopping for hubby last week! He actually found some things yeahhhh! Now to get packing...I think I may need a suitcase just for shoes and boots :)
ReplyDeleteBeen there before . . . I'm sure he will get over it.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Thanks for the laugh! My husband doesn't like tea towel shirts, either.
