Last month I took a quick trip down to Khaki’s of Carmel with my good friend (and resurrected blogger) Gus. I’ve visited (and written about) Khakis on several occasions, but all of my previous trips were in the Spring; I took this opportunity to stop in at one of my favorite stores during the transition to […]

Sunny Rooftop Jam Sessions
Yesterday I took advantage of the beautiful San Francisco weather and ran around the city with some good friends. Then Gerald took some photos that make me look cooler than I actually am, which is ideal for blog posts like this one. Blazer – Boglioli | Tie – Breuer c/o Khaki’s of Carmel | Chinos – J. Crew | […]
A Trip to New York City
I’m leaving for NYC tomorrow. I’m counting it as a vacation, but I’ll definitely be doing a lot blog work while there – meeting with vendors, trying on awesome clothes, taking pictures, writing – sounds terrible, doesn’t it? Oh, and since I always get so many questions about where each item comes from in these posts, I’ve […]
A Letter to a Blazer
Dear Boglioli size 36 wool/silk/cashmere K Jacket with Prince of Wales check, I should have known from the start that it wasn’t going to work out. You were miles out of my league, and there were men far richer than I trying to get you. But I’m still a young guy, full of hope and […]
One Year Later: Boglioli Cotton “Coat” Blazer
As I’ve mentioned before, men’s clothing enthusiasts often tout the importance of buying high-quality products, an ideal that I generally agree with. Of course, few of us have the funds to buy the best of the best of everything, so the process of finding and purchasing clothing and accessories becomes more of a decision of when […]
Spring Essentials
I have a feeling that I’ll be wearing some slight variation of this almost every day for the next four months (if the weather continues to cooperate, that is).
WIWY: Dressed for work, not for play
When I got dressed yesterday morning I was planning on attending an important meeting at lunchtime. However, when my coworkers realized the Giants’ World Series Champions parade was happening right outside our office, our plans quickly changed. OCDB – Ratio | Tie – Vintage GANT (ebay) | Blazer – Boglioli | Flannel trousers – Howard […]
What I Wore: Running late
My work attire has been rather dull lately, so I felt like peacocking a bit with this medley of #menswear: OCBD, madras tie, unstructured jacket, NATO strap on an Omega and oxfords sans socks. I wouldn’t wear this to work every day but it’s fun to throw it all in the mix every now and […]
