It was about eleven o'clock in the morning,
mid-October, with the sun not shining and a look
of hard wet rain in the clearness of the foothills.
I was wearing my powder-blue suit, with dark blue
shirt, tie and display handkerchief, black brogues,
black wool socks with dark blue clocks on them. I
was neat, clean, shaved and sober, and I didn't
care who knew it.Raymond Chandler, The Big Sleep
