OK, this cracked me up.

Jim is not given to dressing well but we found he was fine with almost any sort of shirt, sweater or nice T paired with khakis (dockers in his case) and a navy blazer which he wanted in any case because he's often cold. Trainers on his feet, no problem. We did not have tea at the Ritz but the costume worked for tea at the Savoy.

Then, too, maybe it was my imperious glare daring a challenge.

Meanwhile, I am mostly rumpled linen tops, pants, jacket with scarfs and perfect aplomb.
