Ceremonial attire is very specific. At Ben's graduation from George Washington University's School of Political Management, they did not wear caps and gowns. Rather, the requisite attire was described as "business dress." When you think about it, the rules for this type of apparel are equally strange. Why wear stiff-collared shirts with jackets on a warm summer's day and knot dull strips of silk 'round the neck?
My husband Joe likes to dresses in what he picks up at the church thrift store. That way, he has more to give to charity. But for this occasion, he purchased a brand new blazer and Oxford cloth shirt. He even wore a tie for the first time in the past six months.

Oh Dear, I thought I was teaching Joe better than that, A TIE!!!!!!
Did he remember how to tie it? I have just taken innovatory of my present clothing, and yes, most of it is from the thrift store. This must mean I better give some money to charity.
It will be a pleasure.
A tie indeed...well done!
Did you hear about the man who wore a tie and chocked to death? He was tie died!!!!!!
Interesting about the dress code. Steve was never one for 'dressing up' and as soon as he retired all his ties went to the Charity Shop! Enjoy reading about your life in China.

I used to wear neck ties to work. Then I thought about how an inmate my strangle me with it.
to tell you the honest truth, I do think it is so refreshing to see a man dressed in a suit and tie. I walk around my neighborhood and wonder how did you ever come up with that outfit. However, I do understand how you guys feel, I can't remember the last time I wore a dress...lol
