With the upturn in crime in Colombia, I've been scouring PBH for advice on how to blend in with this the locals. Since all seem to agree that proper attire is crucial, I've settled on the following ensemble:
- Dale Jr. NASCAR cap
- mirrored silver sunglasses
- jeweled Rolex with gold band
- tasteful Hawian shirt
- booty shorts (to accentuate my boyish figure)
- sandals with socks.
Two things have me stumped:
Black dress socks with tan sandals, or white tube socks with black sandals?
For evening wear, would some amber shooting glasses with camo frames be better than the mirrored shades?
