Bloggy.

Super blogger outfit today.  Which is ironic, because it’s almost entirely vintage, yet feels very contemporary.

Still not sure how I feel about DB jackets.  I know they’re huge right now, but I have yet to see one that made me go “YES!” (or even “SORT OF COOL!”) but I’m a thrifty blogger and I got a chance to test drive. This one is solid, I got it taken in on the sides, but I might go a bit more. The tailor said the vent was starting to pull open, and you’re supposed to trust them… decisions, decisions…

Wore the horsebits because the gold bit clashed with the silver jacket buttons and the black leather clashed with my brown bag.  You know how I do.

Pro-tip.
When thrifting hungover, slip on shoes, no tie and no overcoat are your best friends.
That screaming kid in the stroller?  He’s not.

So it’s after labor day and I probably shouldn’t be wearing my cream jacket.  But you know what? I really couldn’t care less about the “no white after labor day” rule.  
It’s a beautiful sunny day, I just got a french cuff shirt yesterday, some Church’s horsebit loafers a few days back, a super-high end Italian tie a week before that and you know what? I feel like dressing in a bunch of rich guy stuff today.
I’ll be back to my hipster douchebag wears tomorrow.
