Today ended a chapter of my life i started 6 years ago when I signed up to take the LSAT. (It ended up bring the first ever LSAT to be administered remotely due to COVID restrictions). Yesterday I was hooded by one of my favorite professors and today I officially graduated with a Juris Doctorate from the Thurgood Marshall School of Law. While it may not have been fully proper, I left the top few inches of my regalia open showing my tie. The burgundy Oscar de la Renta tie belonged to my father who passed away from lung cancer in Oct 2016. Wearing it through graduation I felt honored his memory and that he would have been proud. I am thus far the first member of my immediate family with a bachelor's degree, and now the first with a professional degree. I was thankful to have the support of my loving wife, two daughters and In-laws throughout this journey who have been motivation and inspiration for one of the longest-path goals of my life. In 87 days, I will take the Texas Bar exam and start the next phase of my life.

I remember a time when I would just grab whatever shirt was close whatever pants that were close, throw them on grab the closet shoes and out the door. No attention to style or detail, I was covered and that is all that mattered. Then as I started this journey, I became more focused, intentional in my clothes and appearance. But now, I have noticed in my choice in shirts have changed. Don’t get me wrong I love to wear a polo shirt when playing golf, and I still have some old t-shirts that I use strictly for workouts and yard work, camping and outdoor activities. But I find myself wanting and liking wearing dress shirts and button down shirts. They for me are so much practical for almost any situation. You can wear them with almost anything even shirts. But you can add a tie, throw a jacket and go from casual to semi casual or business casual in a short time. But I love the look, the feel, and style or wearing them. So gentlemen, my question to you what is your go to shirt? Do you have a particular style polo vs. dress shirts? Do you prefer one over the other? And tells us why you selected this category.
