This puppy reminded me of you. Not because of the wrinkles or anything…

Dear friend,

Happy birthday! I didn’t get you a gift. I’m sorry. I’m flat broke…I couldn’t even afford the postage to mail you this letter. Even so, I wanted to do something special for you on your birthday. I mean, I don’t usually wish someone a “happy birthday” on Facebook in all caps with at least 27 exclamation points. I save that for very special people, so you should already feel very privileged.

Let’s be honest, we know each other better than this (here’s the sappy part of the letter). You’ve been there for my lowest of lows-

Ode to the white dress shirt

The classic white dress shirt. For me, they bring on a series of unfortunate events. The splatter of red spaghetti sauce, the bursting of a favorite black pen, the exploding of an ice-cold Coca Cola…these things tend to gravitate towards me every time I put on my freshly pressed white dress shirt. Nevertheless, it’s a staple in closets everywhere.

There are certain ways to wear a white dress shirt, depending on your personality and/or social status. For example:

Businesswoman- a pencil skirt and pointy-toed shoes

Businessman- a tailored suit and sharp necktie

“Risky Business” -shirt, boxers, and a pair of long socks (not many can pull off this look)

Future Farmer of America- Wrangler jeans, enormous belt buckle, cowboy/steel-toed boots
