Waistcoat etiquette


Found an absolutely stunning herringbone waistcoat at the thrift store. One that fits perfectly as well! Gonna wear it loud and proud.

Cut collective


Let us not turn into pessimists.

Bean bags


Mazagran Espresso, Dunedin.

Beans from the coffee deities. One step away from reaching its full potential.

Stun gun


Women and clothes that are clearly too large for them.

Men's shirts. Boyfriend jeans. Pullover sweaters. And this girl right here.

All heartbreakers.

Motherland steez


"...the first Chinese aviation watch (chronograph) for the Air Force of the People's Liberation Army. The code of the assignment was 304."

To acquire in the near future.

Floral


Pocket squares so fresh.

Bradley Dive Watch


"Limited to 50 units, the FSC edition of The Bradley is based on the first 2 dive watches ever commissioned by the US Navy, the 1958 Bulova and the 1961 Blancpain."

Fierce.

Socialist


Swede NATO.

Life on replay


This is what life should be about, I reckon. Long hours in the presence of warm company. Women dressed gorgeously. Fine looking men. A few drinks. Endless conversations filled with smiles and laughter.

It's not that complicated. And it shouldn't be.

P.S. Men, make every occasion an excuse to wear your tie.

Question


Answer without hesitance.

The chase


Make, drink and live Coffea. That's what I want. But who and where do I seek to learn the ways of pulling a perfect shot of caffè crema?

Nigel Cabourn Ofiicers Naval Jacket


Badass-ery for $835.00.

Not mutually exclusive


"Andrew and Adam Mariani working in their vineyard..."

I think this exemplifies quite nicely that you can get down and dirty with a whole lotta swagger. Time to get some gum boots.

Knife ninja


Which are you? Wenger or Victorinox?

I admit. I have a slight man-crush.

Gypsy Cab Co.


I wrote a suicide note.
You did?
Yeah, right after I regained consciousness.


It's a tie between Darjeeling and the Tenenbaums.

Boteh jegheh


"Paisley is a droplet-shaped vegetable motif of Indian and Persian origin." Who knew?

This would make a pretty kickass feature wall.

Bear gifts in mind


I was only going to bring a bottle of wine to a warm house dinner invitation tomorrow. Flowers now seem like a gorgeous companion as well!

Stacks and stacks

Hey kiddo


"An Afghan refugee girl stands with others in an alley of a slum on the outskirts of Islamabad."

And still she has the capacity to flash an amazingly gorgeous smile...

Dance. You know you want to.

Who knows, who cares

Les conneries


What a slick looking sleezebag. It's the damn knit ties and tie bars I tell ya. ;)

Aging handsomely


Always wood. Never synthetic.

"...used in Germany as a plate, especially for breakfast, or as a small serving dish. This board fits a sandwich perfectly..." Spot on. I use mine for fresh sandwiches too!

Dear Frankie


Start shipping internationally, damnit!

Pretty crew


Yowzah.

Fiesty


An oldie but a goodie. The dorky dancing is icing on the cake.

Clothing ordeal


An old Valet article. "Shop Talk: An Insider's Tour of Gant's New Rugger Store"

Two tone tie


"The beautiful vintage floral is dated from the late 1960's and found through a friend out in California."
 
Prominent chambray tie with a peek of deadstock floral fabric. I am in love.

T minus


Nineteen days remaining. Nineteen cups? Probably not.

Saddle stitching

For rainy days

Ms MacGyver


Now, how do I get you to use that pencil to write me your number?

Monochrome tablet


Hot damn! I will keep an eye on these fellas for a notebook-sized version that would fit in my back pocket.

Eureka!

Coffee, books, bulbs and ladders

-Jean-Baptiste Sinniger (République Saint-Ambroise, Paris)

To the girl I know who dreams of roaming the streets of Paris (Yeah, you!). Find this place and tell me if it truly exists!

Compatissant


Sometimes a peck on the forehead seems to say so much more, doesn't it? ;)

Kitchen triangle absent


Chunky wooden kitchen island and deep ceramic sink. Feels like home.

Timeless


The whole reason why I started doing this.

Three more weeks to take in all the caffeine goodness here in Dunedin.
