The Working Man
Being that this current workwear trend is in full force this Fall, I thought I'd actually do some work instead of just looking the part. Soooo, I've been busy raking leaves, cutting down trees, carving monster pumpkins, and gathering acorns for the winter.
Well, not really on the acorn bit.
This morning, getting dressed for a day at home instead of work, my daughter (4) says to me "Daddy, you really look like a worker man in those jeans and shirt". Wow, I thought, the workwear thing is really reaching all generations now.
Aunty-way, I have some fun splurges to tell you about that I'm quite happy with.
The first is the J Crew Chocolate Brown Suede Wing tips. Prolly not really worth what I paid for them, but I cannot resist brown suede wing tips. See pic in earlier post below.
Second, the J Crew Bowery pant in Regular Fit, color Heather Gray: Scooped this on 20% off sale. Very surprised by the fit, color and feel. All over a winner. Liked em so much that yesterday I ordered them in the Charcoal Gray color. Pic also below.
Today is BR's 30% off sale (if you spend $100). My budget for that took a hit this week thanks to an unexpected speeding ticket (D'OH! $100) and a Dr visit for my daughter that the insurance didn't cover (D'OH! $100). Oh yeah, and my gutters look like they need some repair (D'OH! $???). Ah, but why complain.
Now for some wish list items:
The real Hoboken Kid:
Levi's 1967 505s
For your olfactory pleasure:
