Swamp water
Super Bowl Sunday? More like Target Run Funday. I can’t believe this is how I dressed for chips and Ziploc bags.
In other news: Heavenly Hunks oatmeal and dark chocolate hunks. My new obsession.
The Target Run outfit
Cognomen vest
It’s been a while since I’ve worn this stringy thing. A little kid in the skincare aisle with his mom was staring at the long laces as I waited for an employee to unlock the display case. I don’t blame him for trying to figure me out. (The downtown SF Target is an incredibly depressing place, and I salute those in red for dealing with the unpredictables in the crowd.)
Johnson Leathers chevron jacket
Another day, another chance to break him in.
Anthropologie camo cap
I have a stack of old Anthro catalogs, which I collected for the photography and the over-the-top product descriptions (hey, they worked on me). This was probably never written about in print, but I often wonder how they’d describe the Anthro items I own. “Part camo, part leopard. An oil spill in swamp water to crown your dreamy head on bad hair days.” Beautiful.
Sou Sou number shoes
Practical errand footwear. I wish these had back zip closures instead of the flimsy metal clips - they feel like needle threaders. They never stay fully closed.
Paul Smith purple striped socks
I pick up Paul Smith socks every Christmas to put in my stocking. These are perhaps my most favorite pair (they’re sometimes too colorful for my liking).
Laocoön and his Sons tote
Straight from the Vatican. Laocoön, Antiphantes and Thymbraeus make for a more Hellenistic reusable option than a plastic Target bag. Fits neatly in my . . .
Chanel Boy Reverso bag
A guy’s gotta bring his purse when he goes to Target. This super soft version of the Boy bag is structurally supported at the sides instead of the flap. This allows the chain to run underneath the flap itself, making a cleaner look compared to the standard Boy.
I really love this bag. You can’t tell me it doesn’t look medieval.
