At that time, I had my blouse buttoned up to the collar and prior to starting work, I was listening to a walkman radio with headphones. For a short while, I had the headphones wrapped around my neck while I wasn't listening and one of the earphones ended up under my collar. When I removed the headphones, it made my collar stick straight up on one side and I spent most of the day at work looking kind of strange with my collar sticking up. I didn't know it until someone said to me, "hey your collar is up." I didn't know what she meant until she fixed it for me. It's always a good idea to check your collar when wearing a suit to make sure the collar isn't twisted up in the back or the front of your collar might stick up.

The collar in makes me tug a day . So out is better. I think the collar in is more jazzy and the collar has point stands out with your suit.

"Oh my goodness...what will happen to my collar if I take my suit off and then have to put my suit back on?" Pleeeease! If you're a good-hearted person who does your job well, you shouldn't be judged on what your collar looks like...just don't be a slob. Case in point, I was at an airport at a rental car counter where a nice young lady was helping me with my car rental and she was wearing a suit and tie as part of the rental car company's uniform. Her tie was crooked and the back of her collar was twisted, making one side of her collar stick upward. She didn't notice this and I pointed it out to her. Since she didn't have a mirror on hand to straighten her tie and fix her collar, I offered to help her. She let me straighten her tie and I fixed her collar by folding the back of her collar down and tucked the side of her collar that was sticking up inside her suit. She thanked me and we chatted for a bit and, since that time, we've become good friends.

I would have guessed <i>in</i>, but if Sandra Day O'Connor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg say <i>out</i>, then "out" is is. I think it follows Angelina's military rules -- if collared jacket, then shirt collar in; if sweater, robe or otherwise non-collared outerwear, then collar out.
