1446408 2018-02-18 18:27:00 Why not just wear a full brimmed hat so that the sun is kept off off the neck, eyes and ears at the same time.

That does not work if you also need to wear earmuffs. I have always been concerned with practicalities not making a fashion statement

Why wear a suit or even a tie. Ever .
Surely one of the worst choices in clothing . Totally impractical
White business shirt : just no . Too easily marked or stained . $15 T-shirt instead .
Why do so many spend so much money on shoes ? Why not just $20 shoes from The Warehouse or just jandals instead .
Lets ignore any sort of fashion sillyness , and just wear pyjamas all day.

I do wear a baseball cap, it stops the top of my head getting sunburnt :)

You see some in the local supermarkets dressed exactly like that.

Might be a problem if like me you don't own any pyjamas

apparently, wearing pj's during the day is a Chinese cultural thing .
My chinese neighbors wear pj's at strange times of the day . They see it as a Status thing ? . I see it as a bit weird

Mate of mine, and a cousin wear baseball caps, I think to hide their partial baldness, and grey hair. Me - never wore hats, as i have too much hair to show (off) even now in my mid 50's. Have to carry combs to keep it tidily brushed. Though maybe add a short pony tail...

Yeah had to wear white shirts and ties back in the 80's when visiting or hosting top NZ corporate Managers (likes of Rothmans, Tip Top, Affco, NZ Kiwifruit Board, Montana wines, etc). we had suits hung up in our offices to jump into when necessary. But males were bland, women - would change/apply make-up a few times in one day...trousers to jeans to skirts (er blouse?)...multiple choices.

Most of my daily clothes are unique - I buy online, don't like wearing what others wear. Limited choice in Warehouse. No dress sweaters - just dumb hoodies and printed colorless t shirt, half-style pants, and denim. which I despise. One (bad?) long term habit I picked up from professional work-space - to dress well. We all did.

1446415 2018-02-18 23:59:00 Denim work shorts I buy from Lowe's in Australia (as I can't get them here), polyester/cotton shirts and sandals. That's my summer wear.
Jeans and cheap warm shirts and sneakers in the winter

SWMBO says I am real easy to buy for😁

They might look a bit silly in spats, top-hat and tails?

Dress well? Meaning?
Snobbery that jeans are not dressing well?

As for the Warehouse I have found plenty of jumpers, not hoodies, and real wool dress ones too .

Anyway fashion is uniformity dressed up .

Suits, how the hell did one set of clothes become a requirement for men . . . . not even practical .
