COME TO YOUR GRANDADDY!

If a china store is what for an elephant; today, one could easily spot me as the "bear" on the men's floor of the Liberty Store, London. Most of the cool stuff on the hangers are for skinny, or maybe swimmer body types; so I knew none would fit me, just vain to try... The only thing, which (perhaps?) might work for me, was an XL size slim-fit Ralph Lauren shirt; however it was pink and still another X was missing... uhmm... didn't bother myself with that either...

Even if I knew there would be a size problem; while passing by the Folk, Hartford and Haversack collections,  I could not help spending some extra time and enjoyed the look of the handsome "grandad shirts". Nothing fancy, nothing extra, just telling themselves with clean words, they have been my favorite pieces among all. Already having an indigo blue half placket piece since last summer (yeah, with the right size); I quite enjoy the comfortable feel and effortless chic look. And as Folk and Haversack did, if you treat them as an architectural project; the result is certainly great.. 

Some grandad shirts in my wish list:
                                                    
    
Folk
                                              
Haversack

                                                             
Acne (can't get any better than this)

What did I do next, do you reckon? Well, did not buy them, of course... went to the top floor, and rolled over the silk Persian rugs as a free, happy bear....
