Some great suggestions

I just got back home after a couple of meetings (more on that whole issue soon). By the way the outside temp. hit 99 in the car today...It is way too hot to enjoy wearing a suit, which of course I had to do. Much happier now wearing khaki shorts and a old polo oxford with my flip flops.

I was happy to see all of the suggestions on the "must haves" posting. All of the ideas are right up the preppy guy's alley. I think the number one thing for every preppy guy to remember is the preppy dress has most to do with what I like to call "classic comfort". It is not a fad and not some crazy outfit (although I'm sure we all had a few of them in college) and casual does not mean sloppy. Nothing is worse than seeing someone in a sloppy outfit in public...Have some pride.

On a totally different point (or maybe back to the weather) can ANYONE please explain why my (non-preppy) neighbour is mowing her lawn today. It's almost 100 outside and she is wearing jeans and a crappy tee shirt (I think it is one that she got free from buying two cases of Pepsi)

LOL...I'm nice, just hard to understand the need to run out in heavy jeans and mow the lawn...JCL are you in the Northeast? I was driving around hoping to see triple digits...99 was the best I saw....
