We headed South this past weekend to visit friends and explore the annual Palo Alto Festival of the Arts. Our base of operations was the local Four Seasons, the chain that is as close to a home away from home as a man could ever want. I am always impressed by the service, from the staff addressing each guest by name to the complimentary car and driver that dropped us at the far end of the Festival so we could see the participating artists during a leisurely walk back to the hotel.
The local weather has been sunny but cooler once again, and ideal for a linen crewneck. It combined with my Cleverley slipons, a pair of Salvatore Ambrosi's fresco trousers, a silk neckerchief and a linen cap from the ASW store, and I needed little more than an odd jacket for dinner and a change of shirt and trousers for the next day.

Dashing! The rakish angle of the beret perfectly sets off that coquettish flare of neckerchief.
The man used dashing, rakish and coquettish in a single paragraph. Scary. :-)
Will,
How many ways can you tie a neckerchief, can you demostate for your readers
Palo Alto? You look as if you're about to go bull running in Pamplona Will.
Not in those shoes I don't.
I think white cotton shirt and trousers and red neckerchief are worn for the running. Fresco may snag on a horn too easily :P
"Not in those shoes I don't."
Yes, the bulls would probably have the edge. And it wouldn't do the fresco trousers much good either.
