My boyfriend and I were going to a Mardi Gras ball and he had to wear a tux. A couple days before, I started thinking of how to accessorize him and definitely wanted a white pocket square. This was perfect. It wasn't like satin, which I think looks a tadddd bit tacky. This was perfect. Silk but not glossy like satin where you find in the stores everywhere. Also, it's not cheap like a cotton hanky. It was just perfect and came the next day since I had prime and chose 1 day shipping!
