i won't spoil it but the man has attempted some layering i have never seen before and it is not working

CDG half skirt(ed?) trousers

If anybody sees these around in a S / XS hit me up. I currently have the full-length CdG skirt from this same season (pleated front / plain back) and I wear it all the time - I find it works if I either wear it with my Ervell stuff and keep it really clean or I'll throw on my Lad leather and that makes it pretty aggressive looking.

I am alive and a-okay!

My girlfriend told me yesterday, "I know you think I'm crazy but in reality, I'm not. I'm not crazy. I'm just crazy for you."

I think it was her attempt to be romantic or something.

You know those religious people who speak in tongues? Like those evangelicals who go crazy and say gibberish to people because of the power of god or some shit? She thinks that's real. She told me she once spent half an hour 'channeling god' once. I am not sure what that means so I asked her. She said it was like she was on PCP and DMT at the same time, could see the entire universe, and could touch people's souls.

I am not sure if she was trying to be funny, if she was serious, or if she's just insane.

killing time before i step out reading this thread and just wanted to note that i know somebody who literally starts to speak in tongues (it's a language that only she understands but she speaks at you as if other people can understand it and it really sounds like it means something, it's not just random sounds) when she gets stressed / drunk

it does make for awkward situations when people are around who don't know about it / haven't seen it before but at this point i usually either just talk gibberish back or leave

ehh i deleted this earlier but fuck it. my hair is crazy right now, just thought i'd put this up for laughs before i cut it again. might do the rick 'back of the head' cut for a few days before i start over.

gonna have to resell some old ervell stuff in a minute here to pick up this shirt i bet

snagged the navy mock-neck with the trim details on sale in a small at ny opening ceremony, had one or two in other sizes jump on it if you're interested, probably my favorite piece of the season

gets compliments like crazy

very comme somehow

who remembers the equinox ad is it okay to say that it was fucking horrible by now yet?

i want to share this moment of history again with you

Might have some spare passes / be able to get some - 0% guarantees and won't know pretty much until day of but it's possible. Definitely down for a SuFu comic-con lunch or something at the very least - what's good downtown that won't be just insanely packed? Most of the places that I go to are on the other side of downtown and really aren't a bad walk, you can get over to little italy / that area in about 15 minutes and it probably won't be as packed. I usually just end up at like Neighborhood or Basic Pizza if I'm even near the gas lamp but I imagine they'll be busy as hell the whole time.

bump!

bump4theshoes

this meetup will never happen.

that said, i'll be around for comic con and will be back for most of the summer if we get something going. las cuatro milpas meetup?

recent haircut/dye it's a bit more silvery/white than shows up in these photos under my really warm lighting

Lad Musician is all about the tailoring from everything I see from them - it's one of the few brands where the stuff is cut just as clean and aggressively in person as it looks on the models so I think this is a perfect collection for them. These slightly 'odd' / dated proportions with their flawless cutting is going to be a great collection in person I imagine. Lad Musician to me is always more creative than they're given credit for in my opinion but it shows up in the construction and overall approach more so than in their presentations online / in photos - I liken them more to Acne and Patrick Ervell who I think both deserve respect for being 'just slightly off' in an inexplicable yet understated and contemporary way.

edit: to be more specific i think lad musician is not dissimilar from other japanese 'repro' style companies who fetishize past subcultures / garments but instead of slavish imitation from the denim oriented brands or junya's deconstruction it's more of a re-orientation. It's like they point the past in a different direction and see what happens if, say, teddy boys moved to wearing home-made clothing inspired by raf simons rather than dissolving into other 'american' groups.

next, hedi goes to raf and raf to dior homme

Anybody know the context of this image? Fabric on this suit looks fantastic. Could use a heavier weight one than my Lad Musician.

sounds like seven is probably going under so I imagine there's going to be a lot of people not getting paid

heads up

pls dnt shop @ seven ny they dont pay their designers owe me for 3 seasons sevennewyork.com pls rt

nobody fucks with carri

I've got some friends who work at Craft and Commerce, I'm there all the time when I'm in San Diego.

Last time I was back I tried out a few places on Convoy (been meaning to expand from Tofu House and Dumpling Inn since they're getting harder and harder to get into, not that it hasn't already been for the past several years). Went by wa dining okan for lunch - good lunch special, very small but I came at a slightly off time so no wait. Really good, friendly wait staff. Sapporo on draft. Will have to go back for dinner sometime. Also hit up yokohama yakitori for dinner with some friends - struck me as a slightly above average yakitori place for san diego - asahi on draft, give you a shot of milk before you get anything to drink. If you like slightly more unusual parts they have some great specials - the chicken heart was my favorite of the bunch.

My ideal version is the one without arm or shoulder zippers - just the front zipper and pockets, ribbed arms, neck and hem. Will look at others, though, from the last season or two in the poplin or cotton fabrics.

General idea, though, is jackets with these sort of characteristics:

Thanks!
