Dont reek of alchohol perhaps?? hehe

Quick tip for doing up 3 button suits mate:
Top – always
Middle – sometimes
Bottom – never

Thanks Pants I have often noticed guys walking past with the bottom one open and thought it looked ridiculous and the musn't have realised when in fact they were laughing at me haha oh well.

Anything else I should now before I next go into the store? lol

Haha, tie length to your belt buckle, shoes polished - that's about it mate.

[UrbanSG]

Yeap, tie length to your belt buckle is a big one. I always make sure mine is at that level and it can get annoying doing that first thing in the morning before work. Never wear a tie below or above the belt buckle. Most blokes can't get this right. They either wear it too high or too low. I really don't get the look of wearing your tie half way up your shirt, that is a real WTF Anyway this has turned into a fairly entertaining thread now

Yeh I did know that about ties... surprisingly haha

The ties half way up are for waiters in fine dining I think?

[UrbanSG]

Yeah, it is a pitty that some office and teacher types think that it looks good on them too though :wank:

[Diamond]

Another no-no: don't wear a tie with a short sleeve shirt

[Ho Really]

Another no-no: don't wear a tie with a short sleeve shirt

Like those Mormons.

As part of the Regent arcade redevelopment it looks like a Prada store will be opening fronting the mall.

[Diamond]

Great news Any idea when it's due to open?

[Matt]

Whoa... where did you hear that?

Seems slightly bizarre.

Sportsgirl... Valleygirl... Prada.......
Not sure the mall is quite the right place for 'couture'.

[urban]

The mall probably isn't but Adelaide Arcade has recently been turned around to become a quality arcade with some high quality boutique shops. I imagine that the regent arcade owners are trying to do the same thing.

Went down James Place yesterday for the first time in a couple of months. This lane just keeps getting better. ACC should be congratulated for revamping this previously dodgy laneway. It would be great if they could do the same with the other streets between Rundle mall and Grenfell St. Gawler Pl should be redesigned all the way from North Tce to Wakefield St to really link Rundle mall with the business district of Pirie St.

[Ben]

On the Hoarding around the Regent Arcade entrace there is a render of what it will look like when finsihed. It Has Prada and Gucci on it... I'm still waiting for confirmation that these stores will be opening.

[Matt]

It'd be great if they were.
Hugo Boss was a start... the more high end retailers we can get in Adelaide, the better.

[how_good_is_he]

Bang Olufsen is going in the other store adj. Boss on Grenfell St.
