a splash of colour

It is not often nowadays that I wear anything beyond the black and white of my everyday uniform, but over the past few months, I have cheated a little by adding a very subtle hint of color into my life.  This is in the form of my pocket square, which is still the architectural flat fold that I favor (the more floral arrangements with elaborate patterns always being tried before the mirror and then thought better of and put away).  The only difference between the usual white and the current one is that it is custom made and the color silkscreen print is entirely unique.

a little color never hurt, or does it?

But, in eager anticipation of the upcoming London trip, I was thinking, wouldn't it be fun to say adieu to the ever present black suit, white shirt and make three new flamboyant (within limits, of course) suits and three quite fun shirts and really brighten up my adventure?  The rest of the time can be the old tried and true black and white.
