New shirt in the mix

Wednesday, January 23, 2008:
Even though this blog isn't about shirts I decided I would talk about the one I wore today, because I'm proud to have seamlessly added it into the rotation, which is harder to do than one my think. So the shirt was a Christmas present from my best friend, Katherine, and it's from Talbot Men's. It is a blue woven check pattern, but has a skillfully placed orange thread to add a little dimension to the shirt. To match it I didn't go straight to my orange ties, but I decided to find something that brought the same kind of detail to the table, so I chose my red square patterned Ike Bahar that I had purchased at the Nordstrom Men's Half Yearly Sale in 2006 with my friend Danny Ly. I thought it was adventurous to buy a red tie, kind of bold, since I was straying from safe blues and greens and oranges and purples and turquoise.

I love that blue, green, orange, purple and turquoise are safe colors, but red is daring! If only politicians would learn from you and mix up the red/blue duopoly!!
