Thug Kitchen
has rekindled my love for vegetables.
I suspect part of my exhaustion is related to being relatively malnourished. I’ve been forgetting to take my multivitamin as of late, too, and that’s usually a decent contingency plan when the only thing I manage to choke down is a salad every 20 hours or so.
I guess I’m going back to being mostly vegetarian with my guns blazing. Maybe I’ll even have the energy to dress better this summer.
I’ve got some shorts that I’m guaranteed to look okay in. Here’s hoping things work out
WIWT: I am learning how to wear shorts. Experimenting with what does and does not look good. For example, I am still attempting to master tucking in my shirt into my shorts without looking like a complete dork.
Seersucker shorts because it was warm and I only had to show up for a final exam today at 10.
I am also on the fence about my skin tone. I am proud of my pale complexion, but on the other hand, my pasty white legs limit how good I can ever possibly look in shorts.
Part of me wishes I’d put on navy shoes today.
What do you think?
I am so tired it’s not even funny anymore. But at least I have nice socks. Only a few more days of this before I go back to buying groceries, cooking for myself, having a sane diet and sleep schedule, and reading at a ridiculous pace (for novels, I can usually tear through ~400 pages or so a day and for academic texts, it varies).
Life tip: don’t do things to be interesting (even though that’s probably the subconscious goal), do things because you’re interested. Your comfort zone is a lot bigger than you think. Oh, and get lots of sleep.
Anyway, what do you think?
Ivory Tower Style: Stylish Punctuation →
You can learn a lot about someone from their punctuation. A lack of periods announces a poorly organized mind. A properly employed semicolon or dash suggests a subtle dignity. But nothing exudes tackiness like the exclamation point.
The exclamation point is the dullard’s last gasping plea for…
#menswear and punctuation. I couldn’t be happier.
Yeah, I’m glad to be out of the house again, lol.
I’d like to avoid experiencing everything I felt last week for as long as possible.
And thanks, I’ve been chasing after it for ages and finally managed to grab it on sale from Polo RL.
A Collected Style Feature:
Alex Maier of SuperDanger
I had a great time this past weekend in Chicago meeting and hanging out with Alex. He’s truly a remarkable and talented guy who is an inspiration to many. Even though we only chilled for a few hours I learned a lot from what he had to say, especially the tips and advice he had on me improving my photography and blogging. It was fun shooting him as well and I hope we can hang again.
Alex, what Inspires you, your blog and style ?
“More than anything i love people.
I love interesting people.
Finding great people and learning what makes them tick.
What drives them, what moves them to make decisions.
What inspires them to create.
My blog is kind of like fishing, like casting a net to reel in amazing people to my social circle and foster relationships with them.
Hopefully become friends with them, and even work with them.
My style, like everyone’s, is always changing.
As of right now I’m trying to minimize everything.
i have too many shirts, and too many pants.
Ideally here are my outfits for the next 5 years.
Casual: leather jacket or waxed jacket, white tee shirt, denim, white sneakers.
Not casual: blue flannel blazer, higher rise single pleat gray slacks with leather braces, white shirt, loafers.
Everyday would be a variation of those basic outfits with the exception of winter. Which would be all black.”

I’ve caught the stomach flu. No WIWTs on account of my weeklong lack of pants.
