Spring Racing Carnival is in full flight at the moment, which means men in suits and women in over priced hats and fascinators.

One accessory which seems to be missing from many a mans attire is the silk pocket square. For shame. The pocket square has to be one of the most underrated accessory for a suit.

Do it.
