19. Penney's Hawaii

Penney's Hawaii shirt highlight 100% polyester tight-fitting orange and pink Hawaiian shirt purchased in Hawaii in the 1960s (given to me by my friend Ott from her father's collection of Hawaiian shirts).

While orange isn't my colour (I'm a winter, you understand) I'll wear it out from time to time. Nothing beats the feel of authentic 60s polyester on a hot day. Other than that, it really speaks for itself.
