CHESS NUTS BOASTING IN AN OPEN FOYER . . . BLACK TIE FOR THE MEN THIS TIME

In case you're wondering about the title to this post, it was the punchline to our Dad's favorite holiday joke.  Every Christmas, clad in his red tie with embroidered reindeer, white button down shirt, navy jacket, gray wool pants (no pleats, please), and penny loafers (no beef rolls either, please) he would bust out this joke and laugh heartily as if he'd never told it before.  When my Dad laughed, his eyes crinkled and twinkled and he had the most infectious smile.  We couldn't help but laugh too even as we said, "oh brother Dad, not that old chestnut", which, given the context, would crack him up again.  If you want to look as dapper as Dick Noble on Christmas, check out these formal wear options:








Whether you're headed to a party in New York or Newport, we at Chatham Ivy know you'll look dashing!
