Natty Dresser

A long time ago I worked in Washington D.C. through the summer.  Back then, the men switched from their grey or navy flannel power suits to lightweight suits of white seersucker with thin blue pinstripes around June or so.  From a distance, the seersucker looks light blue.

One brave soul even had his seersucker trousers made into shorts, which was odd but practical.  And funny!  It always made me smile to see that guy with his briefcase and shorts!

Fast forward several decades to this guy.  White button-down shirt, power tie and seersucker shorts.  White with thin blue stripes.  For a distance, they look light blue.  He had a wrapped gift with him, so I can only imagine he was going to a formal pool party.

This guy

Plus ca change, plus ca meme chose!
