The Donegal Tweed by J Press goes with anything
Even this old jokeSo this Irishman is lost in the desert. Stumbling around and very near death when he kicks up an old brass lamp outta the sand. He yanks the top off and a genie appears. "Master, I've been trapped in that lamp for 300 years and you've set me free. You have three wishes." The Irishman looks up at the genie and through a cracked voice he utters, "Well, I've been roaming around this desert lost for weeks and I'm a bit parched - - How about a pint of Guinness?"
The genie roars with laughter and says, "Your wish is my command." And poof, there's a pint of Guinness in the Irishman's hand. No sooner does he drink it down than it magically refills to the top. The Irishman looks at the pint in astonishment and the genie says, "A little something I threw in for you, master. A never ending pint of Guinness. Now what can I give you for your other two wishes?" The Irishman smiles and holds up the pint glass, "I'll take two more of these!"

Is it me, or has Press had fewer Tweed jackets available in recent years, notably Harris Tweed? And Happy St. Patrick's day. I'm listening to the soundtrack from Veronica Guerin in its honour, and doubting you need an excuse to drink Irish beer, Tin.
I always stay in on St Patricks. Too many skangers out there. I'll watch Barry Lyndon tonight.
I always stay in on St. Patrick's and on New Year's Eve. Same reason. BUT I am watching my favorite movie tonight, The Quiet Man. I'll raise a Guiness to the Trad!!!

That tie... suspiciously similar to my college tie... where is it from?

Your stripe should run the other way if you're in the UK. Hey, catchy first verse of a tune...Anyway, it's a very simple Navy with gold stripe tie. I checked and it's Brooks. Probably from the early 90s I think.
I spent the best part of an hour just now trying to find this post. I knew I'd seen a Donegal Tweed jacket somewhere in your blog and thought it was one of the earlier years' posts, but it turned up more recent - anyway... I'm going to New Haven to see my sister and other rellies soon, and hope to get this tweed you've got posted here. I imagine wearing it with some faithful military kakis, cordovan tassle slip-ons. I've looked around here (in FL) and can't find anything like it. Thanks for the post - its all good stuff!!
