Some fellow photo majors helped me pick an outfit and song out.
I’m going to buy all of this, of course. Next paycheck.
Just kidding Mom.

Week 4
Short and sweet. Celebrity style, shaving jokes and plenty of videos to entertain you this morning.
- This video made me lol a couple of times. (via Kang)
- Let’s get you ready for the week.
- This is why I think celebrities are a good reference for personal style.
- And I’m a nerd. An excited nerd though.
- How much easier would your day be if you could skateboard?
- Short-sleeve printed shirts are key this summer. I bet you haven’t heard that one before.
- Oliberte throws a couple more on sale.
- My cousin’s blog was talking about protein. And how you don’t need that much of it. Or something.
Remember: Fit matters most.
Hope this helps!

Spring Essentials: The Lightweight Vest
There are days (like today) when it is just to hot for anything other than a t-shirt and some shorts. But real Spring days offer you some great minimal layering, whether it be a trucker jacket, windbreaker or a light vest. While checking out American Living in JCPenny the other day, I found this reversible, easy vest to wear. Definitely the best #jcpfind amongst the other great ones. The brand has a very Ralph Lauren feel to it without the price tag. Make sure you check out more by them in the provided link. I also purchased two button ups and they fit great, though I suggest trying them on first.
Giving you two different perspectives of wear, the vest can be reversed and worn with dark jeans to snap a couple of pictures or out on the boat with some stripes and Tretorns. I’ll most likely wear both, minus the whole boat thing.
Unless you have a boat.
Then let’s talk.
Don’t forget to add your details to any outfit. Like these beads by Kangalex, watch by Timex or bandana from Army/Navy.
Keep those Spring layers light, and your work load even lighter. Enjoy this weather.
Hope this helps!

Loafing.
Dillon and I took a last minute detour in to a small shop and I just so happened to find this orange hoodie(?) by Marshall Artist. What a great brand to find as they are just gaining popularity outside of the UK.
They do not sacrifice detail for anything. And I love it. I’m such a huge fan of small details. Like, the biggest fan.
So many pockets.
So many tags.
So many strings.
I sit in class and continue to find new stuff. It works out super well for my attention span.
You know, sometimes you really like an outfit. No advice, it just works out. Very minimal, simple and colorful.
It’s Thursday, can we just say the week is over?
Enjoy what you wear today, no matter how good or bad your week was.

The other day I was going on about how you should find brands that you like and stick with them. Which is why when my first pair of Scotch & Soda’s jeans had some problems, I never left my apartment again had to find a new pair. But seeing as though I spent a good amount of time in them, I decided to contact the brand and let them know how many adventures these jeans went on and how unexpected the problems were.
Scotch & Soda, an Amsterdam based brand was one of the reasons I started blogging. Finding brands I haven’t heard of before and letting you guys and girls know is the mortar used in finding your own style. And choosing whether or not to support one is how you build. I constantly wonder why people, including myself, choose the items they do. That attraction, or iffy-ness (probably not a word). The want of something whether or not you’re thinking in short or long term. All the choices that make yourself, you.
Whether it’s my denim telling me “today is a very good day”, or the exclusivity that the details make an owner feel, or their practical and sartorial lookbooks, I found the brand so fun. So when I recieved a new pair of jeans and a written letter, I could not have been happier. Some big name companies might forget about the consumers the minute they walk out the door. So being mindful of where you shop is always something you should think about.
And that certainly was not the case for Scotch & Soda. Thanks for the great customer service.
(And if Daniel Craig is about wearing their jeans, count me in.)
Enjoy your week.
