It's funny how different areas call for different attire. I'm an attorney who wears suits "too often" for my own pleaure. In Colorado, you're "overdressed" if you show up in a rural courthouse in anything more than cowboy boots and jeans....AND THAT'S FOR THE ATTORNEYS!  Nice post.

Hi Rich, Thanks for the link! One really does get use to the finer things in life. I wonder if they have a sister site for lil ole me! I can shop for my hubby. Are you liking Knoxville? What took you there?

Stay in touch, Later in the rain~Deb

it is always a test for men to fine the mid range business to casual dress should it suite  with tie or not

I'm with Deb...What took you there...Knoxville???

I still dress business suit...the first, second and third time I meet a customer...no matter how hot it is in South Florida...

Appearance counts...where-ever...you are....

Even though you think it doesn't...it does...you might get grief...however, the customer does...appreciate your professionalism...

don't let anyone kid you on that end...

Great link and dressing for success is a must and you feel so well for doing it.

LOL...I am with Deb, come back to Atlanta!  I might start requiring that you attend my closings :-)~

Larry - I too find it interesting, in south Florida it is perfectly acceptable to show up for a meeting in casual slacks and boat shoes or a tailored business suit.

Deb - Not sure if they do have a sister site. I really do like Knoxville. I have family here and there is a lot to enjoy.

Eric - It really is difficult to know but I have always tried to dress professionally for my part regardless of what my client was wearing.

Karen - Home America Mortgage, though we did business here has not had a physical presence in Tennessee, so the team I work on elected to take advantage of the opportunity to remedy that. I too opted for dressing professionally though you are right, in south Florida is can get a bit warm but that is why we have air conditioning!

Pam - Sounds like a consensus here!

Brande - Atlanta is my favorite big city and I have lived there many times in my life, so you never know what the future holds! BTW, I like the new tag line; it reflects the new marketing strategy nicely!

Rich,

Thank you for the link, I will be checking it out.  Have to admit, I am a bit into the labels.:-)

Rebecca - In that case you will love it! Great designs and great fabrics! Can you say plush!

Hey Rich,have you purchased anything from that upscalemenswear.com?What type of service did they give?

BLR Guy - I did buy a pair of shoes similar to those pictured here from them just over a year ago so that is all I have experience with. They arrived (I was living in ATL) in 24 hours. I was very happy with the product and prompt shipment. I did familiarize myself with their guarantee and return policy before buying. I do know they do not do refunds, only exchanges. If you do try them out, let me know how you like them!

He gardens - and wears Italian suits - yummy! Those shoes - I sold men's dance shoes very like that in my shop. Out here in the west, business is very casual - only lawyers dress this way here.

Deborah - I can get dirty with the best of them, but I clean up nice too!

Thank you for the link. I will tack a look. My husband had some Spanish gins, so he love to dress well. The great part - he loves to buy great clothes for me too. And I am not a big shopper.

Irina - I hope your husband finds something that suits him. At this time though they only have menswear...

Looking good! Thanks for sharing the site. Have a great week!
