[Did you just call me Coltrane?]

Good grief. The man with whom I traveled to Florence bought a really great suit there, but almost didn't because the salesman was wearing orange cords that were waaay too tight and too short with a yellow cord blazer with sleeves that hit about two inches above his wrist. As the salesman took the measurements, he kept stopping the tape at all the wrong places (wink, wink). We had to explain, repeatedly, that the Italian fashion of having everything just a smidge too small wasn't going to work at home. We refrained from pointing out to the salesman that by the way, this particular fashion worked better on younger, much slimmer men.

Thankfully, the tailoring was perfect.
