Our own Dianne Feinstein continues to put her own stamp on Congress' annual "Seersucker Thursday" tribute to Southern style. Not since the last "Jeans Day" at their local Catholic High School has this country seen such a gang of folks giddy about a short-term change in dress expectations, and DiFi keeps the fun rolling with her gift of seersucker suits to her female colleagues in the senate.
She (or more accurately, we suspect, her hapless assistant -- seriously, can you imagine having to do this for your boss?) picked up the suits at Brooks Brothers 2 years ago, for the rock-bottom sale price of $150. We're sure that pricepoint had nothing to do with the fact that seersucker kinda looks like ass unless you're presenting arguments in the Scopes Trial or something.
See our elected seersuckers in action here, and do take a moment to luxuriate in this forever pink shot of Senator Rick Santorum, above, that we found on Princess Sparkle Pony's Photoblog. And, until next year, see ya, suckers!



Hey, OMG, thanks for the plug! I just posted a whole slew more of superexciting Seersucker Thurday shots thoughtfully provided by an undercover Pink Pony agent at CSPAN. Check 'em out, they're crocquet-licious!
Okay, so I bought a seersucker suit because I'm going to a wedding in Charleston in a couple of weeks. Can you blame a brother for wanting to be comfortable in that hellacious humidity?
So I talk to my father and apparently he and I are the only two men planning on wearing suits at all (and he's going to be wearing wool, the poor sucker). So I go down to the tailor to get it altered, and then this hits the blogosphere. Mr. Santorum, I demand satisfaction!
