I see a lot of classic style coming back and I feel s.p.a.t.s are due for one. I bought a pair that are too small for me off e-bay to go over my Beatle Boots but will find some other use for them. They would look great with fitted jeans or a suit and are extremely protective. Now I am on a mission to find a pair that actually fit.
Bring them back, please.
I love vintage American Tourister bags. The quality of the leather is incredibly durable. Below are just a few on sale courtesy of Flea Bay:
$5.50
$24.99

It dawned on me this year to start buying clothes off season. Not only are they cheaper, but the tailor can really take their time with a piece. Going off many tips from my fellow blog in arms MANSHION (www.manshion.net) I ventured to OVERSTOCK.COM to look for a light suit to get me through Spring and Summer. I was really amazed at the prices but the selection is VERY slim. I was able to find a decent looking unlined oyster colored Poplin suit for just $84.94 after shipping. It will have to be tailored judging by the photos. Here is a look at the stock image:
Spring/Summer Poplin Suit - $84.94
I always wanted a suit like this for summer and pair it with some driving mocs, pink or green polo, or a white linen shirt and tie.
I will have a follow up post about the quality of the suit, the size accuracy, and the service at overstock.com should I need to return it.

Clooney looks like Tom Selleck a bit.
We currently live in a divided nation. Not just on issues of race, economy, and politics but also on a serious issue in men’s grooming trends.
The Moustache.
Yesterday I decided to shave off my well kept facial hair in favor of a smooth face and waited to get to my upper lip last. Before my razor met the folicles, I took a look at myself and thought, “Wow. That’s really not bad looking.”
Today at work I have had a mixed bag of reactions. I’ve been called everything from Sigmund Freud, a pedophile, a porn star, even an English Lord. I’ve found that most of the negative comments are coming from women who all seem to think it is representative of a creep.
Gentlemen, I say this to you: If you think something works for you, keep it. The important thing is to do it with taste and elegance.
Let me know what you think and please, be gentle. I’m a sensitive human being! =)

Yes We Did
Tuesday will be historical because, aside from the obvious reasons, we finally have a man in the White House who doesn’t wear cowboy boots and knows how to get his suits tailored.
