I just picked up this surprisingly nice yarn dyed indigo Denim & Supply shirt from The Bay here in Toronto. It was 30% off with an additional 15% off because I used my Bay credit card so in total I paid $65 with taxes. It fits slimmer than my other Denim & Supply shirts so I sized up one. I think this may be my new favorite shirt. It comes in 2 different colors of hickory stripe as well. I may have to head back to grab those ones too.

It was never on The Bay's website for some reason. I was in there about a week ago and they didnt have these shirts and now they have them out and all on sale. I cant understand that stores methods at all but Im not complaining.

This is the same shirt on the D&S site.

They also have these really cool discharge printed denim shirts that I was very tempted to buy but they fit a bit different than the one I got today so I held off for now.

It looks pretty awesome but the pattern is just a bit too busy for me.

Are the shirts slim fit? I always size up one on that case.

The striped ones definitely fit slimmer. I have a small in a Denim & Supply chambray that fits well but I couldnt even button up the small in the striped one. I tried on the medium in the discharge shirt and it was a lot roomier.

We went to the opening day of Louisville's Nordstrom Rack store it's near our house. I picked up three shirts had to try them on as I don't trust any "designer"shirt brand. One shirt even in a XXL was too small under the arm thou it fit across the chest. Also picked up a bunch of pocket squares and Bresciani socks at 7.99

Bresciani socks at 7.99? That's a steal!

Yes my wife was buying all the ones she wanted for me. Today I stopped by my local Haberdasher to look at pocket squares he carries Drakes and the like a weakness I have. But when I entered an asked where John was his co worker said he had died this past Tuesday of a blood infection. He was a year younger than me. Always live everyday as it is your last.
