Alden’s, RL, J.Press…
I decided to organize my unworn shirts tonight (These are just the ones that haven’t been unwrapped). Profile on addiction take 1.
If you’re going to break your vow, do it with class and style… Said no one ever. Last week laying around the house for a few days recovering from gum surgery, I shot off an email to Mercer, with out much thought and ordered 3 new white OCBD’s. They have my info and CC on file. So it was rather frictionless. I realized after I sent in my order that I shouldn’t be doing this, but I didn’t lift a finger to halt it. So, $380.00 spent on clothes in 2016 as of this date. I’ve sold 1,000’s though, but that wasn’t the point of no new clothes. I’ll blame it on boredom and the pain. Back on the wagon… But looking rather fresh if I may say so.
WIWT: 2/25/16
Alden dirty bucks, Brooks Brothers OCBD (1980’s NOS), BB flag ribbon belt, Polo poplins, and a smile.
It’s been in the 50’s this morning and even though some of you would run around in a speedo at these temps, I’m freezing my butt off. Finally busting out the Shaggy Dog I forgot to bring up north, college days Alden suede tassel Mocs, still looking good since they’ve barely been worn in the last decade. 15+ yr old RL Kermit the Frog green cords, and NOS BB OCBD… Matchie-matchie I know.
Shoulder selfies are the next big thing… Just you wait and see.
Endless summer… J.Press shirt and belt, RL pants, Bean on the feet.

Dorset Greens on Cream Plaid shirt in a Classic tennis collar, paired with a Navy Scottish 3-ply Brooks Brothers Cashmere V-Neck, and Barbour Bedale are helping protect me from the elements of a cold damp day in Upstate NY.
