Favorite getaway below the Line:
Palm Beach, Florida. My parents are snowbirds and have made PB their wintertime nest – and since it’s such a quick trip from DC, I visit as often as possible. I love Dixie Highway antique stores, egg BLTs from Green’s Pharmacy, Worth Avenue’s famous shopping, bike rides along the Lake Trail, and grilled artichokes at the Palm Beach Grill. It’s definitely the land of Lilly and Stubbs, so it’s fun to really go wild with bold colors and prints.
Now would ya look at that:
Van of Necessary & Proper. Together, he and Lauren run one of my favorite style blogs.
- Rugby RL jacket.
- Ralph Lauren tie, belt, and shoes.
- Brooks Brothers pants (ankle length).
- Tiffany & Co engine-turned belt buckle.
- Burberry umbrella.

Can someone explain the too-short hem on the pants? I know this is apparently a “look” now, but it takes an otherwise nice outfit and makes it appear (to me) less-than-adult.

I cannot, for the life of me, get behind madras. Certainly not a mark against Van here; he’s got a killer look going. Madras just doesn’t tickle my fancy. That club collar on the other hand, primo.
Great stuff, Van! And well done as always, Caroline.

Van looking dapper as always, love

That’s a great look. I think the madras tie really makes it.
