Friday's with Mr. Milk - What THE MAN Will Wear


I never thought I'd be discussing what suit to wear this soon, but Chocolate Lover has been keeping me busy looking at a gazzilion bridesmaid dresses over the past two weekends so this way I'll have a chance to balance things out a little bit. 


I always wanted a Boss suit but never found the courage to spend that kind of cash for a work suit. I have custom tailored suits from China, I bought Zara, Mexx, and other brands unknown even to the company itself, but I've never owned a brand name suit before. See, the worst thing a man can do is try on a Boss suit when his budget is destined for Zara. It's like driving a BMW and buying a Mitsubishi. Good luck being happy after that!

But this is my wedding, emmm I mean OUR wedding. I hate wasting a perfectly good suit for a single ocassion so what I would like to do is make sure I buy a suit that will be elegant enought to be worn on my wedding day, and toned down enough to be worn at a formal dinner without making others feel that royalty is expected to arrive any moment now.

Boss. Bose. BMW.

Those are my favourite brands. In the quest to acquire all B's, September 25th will be my excuse for the first one. I already have a Bose system. BMW.... hmmm, what excuse can I think of to work on that one?

Until next Friday, this is Mr. Milk signing off.

LOL, I love the "BMW and buying a Mitsubishi" phrase! That's how girls feel when they try on Christian Louboutin heels, but only have enough money to buy Payless Shoe Source shoes!

I hate to say it, but I'm all about Payless. I have a hard time justifying $300 for a pair of shoes. Mr. Milk, you have set a great task ahead of you and I can't wait to see what you come up with. :) Practical - love it!

This is definitely the time to splurge. YOU should also feel handsome and sexy on your day and what better way than to buy a suit you've always wanted! Plus, you CAN wear it again :)

Mrs T said...

Happy suit hunting. At least you get to wear your wedding day attire again - definitely worth the splurge.

I think it's a great idea to buy a suit and then you can wear it again someday. That's the hardest part about spending lots of money on a dress you only get to wear once.
