• On Haight Street: Camouflage 2.0

    I guess the whole let’s-walk-around-town-with-a-small-dog thing is a bit passé. But an iguana as a replacement – really? In short, yes. Really. This is the twenty-first century. No judgement here. I mean one minute you’re walking down Haight St. browsing Wasteland (where I scored a vintage Versace blazer, just FYI), the next minute you’re practically confronted …

  • A Time to Reflect – A Time to Predict

    I know, I know – it’s definitely spring. But sometimes it’s good to take a moment to think about what you just did, right? You know, reflect on all the choices you made during the those cold and gloomy winter months (the good, the bad, even the ugly). Besides, reflecting helps us think about what …

  • Hermès Ulysse Leather Notebook

    I think we can agree that anything Hermès is worth writing about. I mean luxury is always worth writing about, non? But let’s contextualize. At this stage I’d say it’s best to re-cap how Hermès effortlessly evokes feelings escapism and endless travel. Voyages of the imagination – remember how much you loved riding a bike on Lake Como? …

  • Yago Partal’s Zoo Portraits

    It’s Friday – meaning life is good. But things could always be slightly better. The suggestion? Yago Partal’s Zoo Portraits. By now I’ve made my views known re: the whole let’s-play-dress-up-with-animals thing, I think? If not, well hello! I’m kind-of a big fan (remember William Wegman for Acne Studios and Takkoda’s Famous Faces?). And if further justification is really needed, …

  • Scouts Honour: A Guidebook

    Whether we’re talking fashion, work or relationships, sometimes we can use a little guidance – and I found just the thing. One very chilly and brief stint at an obscure NYC flea-market left me admiring a copy 1965’s Boy Scout Handbook. So ok, while this guide is entirely geared towards the great outdoors (think the whole …

  • Jeremy Deller, Fantastic Man

    It’s officially Spring, which now means it’s always Pimms-o’clock. It also means the latest issue of Fantastic Man is out! I know, I’m beyond excited (can you tell?). Don’t get me wrong, the selection of regular monthly mens fashion magazines is fine. But there is something extra-special about a semi-annual publication, like Fantastic Man – because it always …

  • Famous Faces: The Canine Diaries

    It’s Monday and you’ve found yourself staring at some dogs dressed as celebrities. See, Monday’s aren’t that bad – right? If anything these incredible images should transport you back to a time when you and your dog (I’m guessing unwillingly – although Giggy Vanderpump might disagree) played dress-up. Because let’s be real, we’ve all done …
