I was at Tuxedo Junction today getting fitted for a shirt and pants. They’re my tux shop of choice simply because they have the most unique styles and accessories. I own two tuxedoes, and purchased them both there. Why do I own two tuxedos, you ask? Well, you never know when you’re going to be invited to a black-tie event, and as frequently as I’m invited, I can’t have people seeing me in the same tux two nights in a row, right?
Actually, the last time I rented one, it was something like $50 more to buy than to rent, so I bought it figuring I’d save money in the long run, which I have.
I couldn’t decide which of these two tuxedos I liked better, so I included them both for your viewing pleasure. The truth is, I really only like the 7-button jacket on the one on the right. Pair that with a black vest, black shirt, copper tie and handkerchief and I’m in heaven.
By the way, the title isn’t misspelled – that’s how Franck says it!

I think we are due for another black tie event don’t you? Call the troops. Let’s do Ruth’s Chris and dance with Jordan all night!
