So years of staring at computers causes me to get a decent amount of eye fatigue at the end of a long day, enough that I think I need reading glasses sometimes in order to read without headaches.

Does anyone have any recommendations for nice looking reading glasses? This feels like a weird request.

So I went and tried that Philip Lin flower jacket today... It fits so nicely and looks amazing.

I didn't get it, as I want to buy a saxophone this year, but I am so damn tempted.

I am conflicted Manshion, do I serve the fashion God's or Saint John Coltrane?

I have been able to buy a few shades from ooutlets at really low prices. All high-end designer items.

I remember one other time when this outlet had a sale on men's products such as cologne and facial items. I saved a few hundred easily.

Are we talking about the leather lim jacket or the non-leather?

I -think- it was this one:

why would we hate outlets when we link to yoox all the time :p

going by the store list, i'd peep the following in your shoes

marc by marc jacobs

barney's new york

calvin klein

marni

sandro

vince

burberry

rag & bone

saks off 5th (good place to pick up button shirts and casual pants.. you might even find some balla ferragamo sneaks for $200 like my friend)

you could also duck into brunello cuccinelli and see what their idea of outlet is. i'm curious how not-expensive-but-expensive it is lol. i doubt you'll find anything in your price range at saint laurent, valentino and co, but could be good window shopping.

speaking of fragrances does anyone want a gently used bottle of terre d'hermes for a low price? i think i'll be side-grading to hermes eau de mandarine ambree or something a little softer and it would be practical for space reasons to let it go.
 
today I'm thinking

bright pink dress shirt, white sweater pull over, fitted black dress pants, pink socks, beige colored shoes.

Sound good? Err colorful without being tacky I mean?

they do know we're heading into summer and not October, right?
Its their F/W preview. Most F/W previews come out around this time, if not several months earlier.

W+H's S/S usually is not very good. Probably because they're a canadian brand and are used to colder weather with outerwear styling.

Rogue Territory/3Sixteen is great stuff but on the low end of 200. Granted, if you're looking for something that can take a beating and last for awhile, those are them.

Don't brands usually debut things about a yearish ahead of time? Like we won't actually see most of the items for sale until Fall actually comes lol...
Yep, a year is the typical fashion industry standard, if not more. I'm already seeing SS15 lookbooks for some brands.

I wore loafers without socks all day for the first time. Man it feels gross. I need to find some lower than ankle socks.

iirc jcrew makes socks for this purpose, and I've heard of an internet company called ninjasocks or something. or if you want to go the easy route, just get some ladiez socks for flats and the like from target.


got my raf seeeminz shadees today. done with shades now.
