BRAIN BLEACH !

Don't fasten the top button unless you have curly, grey, chest hair sticking out through the gap. :-(

Love em I'm forever nicking my partners to wear. To answer the question if you are wearing with a suit or smart cas then do the top button up and if you're wearing with capris or shorts don't and don't have em baggy, make sure they fit but not slim fit. Get a man bun, some cool shades, killer facial hair and bingo you're a hipster x

Cheesecloth !...I remember cheesecloth in the late 60's, and my mum said that shirts were almost impossible to iron !

Regarding this and the wearing of t-shirts with jackets, as even TV presenters (of the worst kind) sometimes now do;
When I wear collared shirts - as I only do- the collar gets soiled after 2 or 3 days, and goes into the wash. Those wearing shirts without collars must therefore have grubby jacket collars, which really need expensive dry-cleaning, is that not true?

[ChillDoubt]

If you get a man bun as suggested by kvalidir, you'll also need to get a life......

[melv16]

So, it's onwards and upwards to the supermarket with the top button undone. I'll be cutting a dash near the deli counter. BTW, they're T shirts, not formal ones.

[melv16]

The only bun I have is a cream one, chill:-)

[douglas9401]

Each to their own but the thought of wearing the same shirt for two or three days in a row lacks appeal.

[kvalidir]

I must admit if you shower twice per day I don't think you get a dirty collar generally, and change your shirt daily obviously. Certainly we don't seem to dry clean suit jackets every week because they aren't dirty.

[Khandro]

Douglas, I am forced to, you can't can't get the staff any more.

Kvalidir; Two showers a day! you must be very dirty.
