I always wear either Plain Black suit or a charcoal grey with chalk stripe suite, i always wear double cuff shirts, with a cut away collar, never wear a tie and always wear brogues.
I have worked in the square mile since 1994.Last edited by aceboy; 19 April 2010, 11:39.Comment

Not that I have to bother much with a suit anymore.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
