So, I've got to get dressed up for tonight and I want to throw in some red so here's the question

I am wearing a black pinstripe suit. Do I go with the flashy, yet gangster-esque, red silk shirt and black tie or the more conservative white dress shirt and red tie?

No no no, not the red silk shirt. Please! That's just a fashion no no.

Go with a red tie.

Really? But I distinctly remember it being cool 5 years ago at my prom. Me and five other guys, each in different colour silk shirts. Ah those were the days.
 
Also, Lav my musical recomendations for the day are the White Stripes and The Hives.
 
I think you just prooved the lady right

That was never cool. If you thought it was you have an odd notion of fashion.

Of course, I'm a bit more conservative. But when I see a bright color silk shirt under a suit, I think.....bad call.

What if it wasn't silk? I'm sure I could just find a regular red dress shirt.

A red shirt under a pin stripe suit is a NO NO!!!!!!!

Please get this through your skull. It's not cool, it's bad taste...pure and simple.

Could I go with a regular, non pinstriped suit then?

Definitely, the white shirt with red tie. Not too much of an overstatement, that way.

If you are going for a "Very Sopranos Valentine" then sure, go with a red shirt. Otherwise, stick with the red tie and white shirt.

If you wear the red shirt, I'm calling you Tony from now on.

Sigh.

That means I have to go to the friggin dry cleaners.

Why can't you just let me look like an idiot?

The things I do to make my girl happy. I wish I'd just bought a dog.
 
ROFLMAO!!!!

Yikes. Found the pictures. Point taken. Where's the dry cleaners again?
 
I would not want to be seen in public with a man wearing a red silk shirt under a pin stripe suit - ack! I'd spend the whole night in the ladies room.

Listen to Lavy. She's never wrong.
 
Red silk shirt?

I shudder to think.

Reconsider immediately and then post an apology here on the BB for making all of us gag.

The fashion police are on the alert for you.
