One significant change in retirement is Bob is rarely in formal dress these days- fewer occasions requiring a suit with collar and tie. This has reduced my ironing load [whoopee!] and the few ties he has kept stay unworn in the wardrobe most of the time. He has one shirt which he loves, a blue, cotton twill "Oxford". It is loose, and comfortable. But it is rather old, and the collar has worn right through.

Voila! a casual collarless shirt. Perfect for balmy summer days. No tie required
That was a great idea!

DeleteWhen I was a teen, my mother used to do that with men's shirts which I thought was so cool.
ReplyDeleteI won't ask how long it was since you were a teen!
DeleteThat's a brilliant idea, and very fashionable too!
ReplyDeleteI notice that many retailers call these "Grandad Shirts" - so that makes them very appropriate for Bob now!
DeleteI'll have to try that because some of Dan's shirts are doing the same thing.
ReplyDeleteI have also done the same operation on skye guy's work shirts. Voila - new style!
ReplyDelete~ skye
That's a very clever make-over!
ReplyDeleteGood job! It has turned out well. I have "turned" a collar or two in the past but this is a good idea for the casual ones.
