This is an increasingly bizarre thread, but I will add that my favorite dress shirts for years have been various shades of pink, and that few colors look better under ties and with black or dark navy blazers... Few gentlemen with sartorial sense fail to have pink shirts in their chemise lineup.

The three carry the top branded hats, but Mrs. Dewson (San Fran) makes custom for men and women.. Most notably for S.F. mayor Willie Brown.

My friend Anne Sawyer of Lexington, who is the official Ladies Hat maker of Derby, does custom hats. Very nice. She was at Saratoga for 5-6 years but wasn't here last year due to a bit of a contract dispute...

How was it different back in the day? Better?


They had this one 'retro' day at Keeneland it was pretty cool. You have to love anytime the fedoras come out, of course the only time i was able to sport that was as an extra in Seabiscuit but I loved it.


P.S. how do you do multiple quotes in one post? lol

Dude look, too each his own. I guess when you are talking about summer attire you are right. I had a pink polo short sleeved that I used to wear. But when you are talking about pink hats and pants, no thanks, I'll pass.

Where does a guy go to find white pants these days. I mean I don't want chicks like that one in your picture I know it was a joke but still.


Sometimes i pop my collar for frat parties but otherwise I feel like a ginormous tool because the classy older ladies really seem to despise the look.

Flip flops are a way of life for me. I would wear them to work if I could. I wear them as late in the year as I can and start as early as I can. Only time I dont have them on my feet is when I am at work.

OH GOD!!!!! Men's feet should never be shown. Women's only if they keep their toes nice!

Kev you are making me nauseous...

Mens feet should never been shown????? You would never make here on the Outer Banks. Flip flops are considered proper footwear. We had a party at the club last Saturday night and 50% of the men there were in golf shirts, khaki pants and flip flops. Its the laid back beach lifestyle.

Shirt and pants are fine. BUT I WOULD GO CRAZY TRYING NOT TO LOOK AT THE FEET! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

I like the Australian farm look. Shirt, khaki shorts, socks and boots. :p

I wouldn't say anything about his physical qualities if it's not nice. JMO. If you're going to tease someone, it should be about their character.

He can call me fat a$$ if he wants. He is probably one of the only people on the board who knows what I actually look like. I PMed him to apologize because now you have me thinking that I hurt his feelings. I hope I didn't.

It's not about hurting his feelings... the point is, why would you keep on teasing someone about something they have no control over? There are plenty of people who date men that are built like Kevin and have no problem with it. Kevin would never call you a fatass because he doesn't insult someone based upon their looks (and I try not to either.) There are so many other things you could tease him about. :p :D

Honestly, I was only making a response to his post about wearing a pink polo. I thought he was joking around so I did. If my best friend wasn't married I would have hooked him up with her. She likes skinnier men. Her husband was a good friend of mine. I hooked them up with one another. Just teased kev because that was the topic "men wearing pink". Honestly, I think men wearing pink is girlie. Every man on this thread who wears pink, I would call girlie if I saw them wearing it.

But what do I know? I am an old married women who lives in the boon-docks and doesn't know that gay men don't hang out in South Beach.
