"Floral shirts should be worn with caution: it's all too easy to take on the appearance of a playboy who's gone to seed or; worse still, a big girl's blouse. The trick to wearing a flowery shirt is to make it look sporty by wearing it unironed and dressed down, with a T-shirt worn underneath, and the sleeves rolled up. I wore mine several times while I was away and on a visit to a winery in the middle of nowhere, the Aussie behind the counter asked me if I was a Pom*: perhaps he had noticed the socks with flip-flops? No, 'it's the Liberty print, mate.'"

*According to Wikipedia, a term describing 'a British person' that may be used as a slur, but is more often mildly affectionate.
