In continuing the descent from 60 to the improbable snowstorm, today was cold. cold and slow. If hours could last for days, I’ve aged several years today. That being said, at least I did so in comfort and ease in this winterproof layering combination of tweed, corduroy and lambswool. Sweater, Cords, & Socks- J. Crew…
So, as you might know, I have never been the one who’s been prone to the denim side of menswear. Even though I’ve always felt more comfortable in a suit and tie, sometimes curiosity kills the cat and here I am. My friend recently visited, and when we were walking around he said he wanted…
From the craziness of a double on Saturday and a fun night, to the day that never was on Sunday, this weekend never failed to bring the crazies out. However, unlike last weekend where the temperatures experienced a spike from the freezing to the balmy, this weekend the temperatures took a nosedive which made last…
We’ve all been there. We’ve all worn something for maybe an hour and then in the spirit of putting our best foot forward, we blog about it. Yes, today I left the house with a herringbone tweed sport coat and floral bow tie that was in tune with the warmer temperatures. However, within an hour…
With a new month came some slightly warmer temperatures. Change is good. Jacket & Belt- Ernest Alexander // Shirt, Chinos, & Bow Tie- Brooks Brothers // Shoes- Clark’s // Watch- Timex // Rope- Kiel James Patrick // Laces- hook & ALBERT // Socks- G. H. Bass //
Although it seemed like plaid was my go-to in terms of outfitted injection for a bit, I seemed to have fallen off that trend. However, with a recent “snow storm,” I decided to revert back to the plaid of winter, black watch, and go for it in a double dose. Although I’ve been prone to…
With the balmy weather in full effect and Christmas only 3 DAYS AWAY (!?!?), I opted for a simpler outfit. Happy Sunday everyone and be sure to make time for family on this holiday. (Oh, and if you’re like me, today would be a great day to catch up on all that last-minute shopping!) Details:…
With a chill day in NYC came a day to layer. The darker plaid played well with the cable knit and below the color pallette was lighter and more muted with the camel color corduroys and tan suede desert boots. With some walking around the city, came a want for relaxation and so I left…
The weather has finally reached an official fall/winter New England rhythm. Although some days need tweed and heavier sweaters, there are some days where even though you can see your breath, a cardigan and some corduroys is all you need. However, since it’s actually quite balmy, I decided to pull out this cotton-cashmere cardigan. Details: Cardigan-…
Although I don’t normally find myself reaching for solid-colored neckwear, I have come to realize their place in the grand scheme of things. Whether it be in uniformity with other solid colors and pieces to show an air of simplicity, or simply to pair with a patterned shirt, they have their place. For today’s outfit…
Usually when people say it’s freezing outside, it’s hyperbole and even though they are cold, it’s probably not actually freezing. However, when I went outside this morning, I thought, “Man it’s freezing!” Not actually knowing the temperature and proceeding on, I stumbled upon a bucket and it fell over. When I reached for the bucket,…
As much as I like wearing ties and collared shirts, some days in life just feel a little more ordinary. Today was one of those ordinary days. Even though today had the ingredients of nice autumn day, there was an added ingredient that kept it all from happening- the wind. I’m no meteorologist, and to…
The trouble with packing clothes is that it’s really hard to pack based on the weather. As much as we are constantly bombarded with 3, 5, and even 7 day forecasts, do they ever actually know what they’re talking about? I mean I suppose that their guess is 100% closer than mine would be, but…
As the weatherman predicted the Ocean State had its first glimpse of snow today. Even though it was only supposed to cover the morning commute, it ended up covering the majority of the morning and there’s even a dusting still left on the grass. With the early snowfall, it was time to layer again. As…
