Those New England Summers
Buying Guide: Chinos for Spring and Summer
Like I mentioned in my “Spring Selections” post, chinos are a great item to have on hand when the weather starts to warm up (and they’re much more affordable than loafers, too). Like many other popular men’s garments, chinos have a military background but have become immensely popular with civilians over the decades. They offer a casual […]
What I Wore Sunday – Casual & Collegiate
There’s something wonderful about spending time on a college campus in the fall, and it’s even more enjoyable without the weight of homework and exams hanging over one’s head. Over the weekend I took a short trip down the peninsula to my local Alma Mater to meet with good friends and spend some time on the […]
Sailing in the Bay
Having friends with access to a sailboat is a great asset when living in the Bay Area. Sailing around the bridge piers and islands and taking in the incredible views is one of the best ways to spend a sunny Saturday.

Coincidentally, I realized that I’m wearing head-to-toe Bonobos right now; all told, this whole outfit cost ~$30 (new of course). Take that as proof that if you play the sale/store credit game, […]
What I Wore: Sailing
I’m on a boat and It’s going fast and I’ve got a sweater that’s made by Michael Bastian The weather was wonderful in San Francisco this weekend and I had the good fortune of spending most of it on a beautiful sailboat with several of my close friends, cruising around the Bay’s bridges and islands. […]
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 […]
