So any of you diehard fans of collecting the above?
I kinda like Paul Smith socks but they never bring in Asian sizes in their boutiques here. I'm always on the lookout for nice socks and pocket squares (the yellow one below is a Ferragamo one someone gave me)  |

If you are going to show off your PS, show off your suits too.

Sartorial blasphemy!! Get a seperate handkerchief! currently my PS all use to blow nose one... i have a soft spot for argyle socks though... Agreed. Argyle socks deserve more love as plain socks are boring. |

I think the actual function of a tie, cravat is to catch food from spilling onto the shirt. Not a dinner bib. hahaha.

i love argyle socks. i've got a few but always on the lookout for more colourful variants.
i've bought some from robinsons, gap, uniqlo, etc. i also saw some in M&S. anyway i was shopping for some nice PS last weekend. didn't find any colourful printed/textured silk ones at all! ferragamo, canali, gucci, etc zilch! i didn't bother to step into hermes to check though as i know if they had any, it would be over my budget. thomas pink had some plain looking cotton ones going on offer for RM99.
