Tip for pocket squares

[revdpatience]

Great tips, Karl!

I ended up with a nice collection of pocket squares several years ago, following an anterior spinal fusion surgery in my neck (C5-C6-C7 for the cognoscenti).

Because I was in a neck brace 24/7 for eight weeks (and couldn't wear a necktie), but was still traveling for business and making formal presentations, I accessorized with pocket squares instead.

At church it was all right, too -- I just had a much higher white plastic collar than usual to go with my black clerical shirt.
