Letting Go


A favorite shirt is hard to let go, especially when you paid $20 for it at Paul Fredrick on wild clearance, and you have such good memories together.  But when, as here, the cuff's edges start to show minor signs of wear, it's best to rip the bandage off and donate the shirt.  Otherwise, you risk holding on for too long and showing up shabby.  The line between thrifty and threadbare can sneak up on you if you're not careful.

  1. Post on past posts, I was under the impression that you only wore French cuffs.

  2. I mostly do, but when PF has a shirt in my size and trim fit for $20, I usually buy it if it's not hideous.
