    Sartorial Objections

    Man, I don't know. I just bought my first pair... ever... out of necessity (for the pool) and I'm pretty sure Hades in entirety froze over as I did. It actually hurt me to buy them. Flip-flops are wrong for *hundereds* of reasons. And at least if you're going to wear them, have the decency to do...

    What's Your Vintage Skill Set?

    By trade I can blind-identify wine by smell and taste. On a really good day I can also tell you the vintage and producer, though I'm not sure this is a dying art, though it is getting much harder with the boom of the wine industry and the trend of "Internationally styled" wines. I can bake...

    Question: Tipping in Restaurants, for Services, ??

    I tip many people. I've been in fine dining for 7 years and think it's only good Karama to tip others well. I tip delivery people (not UPS, but furnture delivery), movers, my haircutrix, all waitstaff of course (if someone not in a direct chain to the money does a great job, like a bus person, I...

    Sexy Beast

    No truer words have been spoken. Pure Shakespeare, updated, dirtier, and at points even more subversive. The most elegant and succint TV I've ever seen made, and the finest characters I've ever seen cross that matter of screen. 'Deadwood' was/is true brilliance and mastery of the medium...

    Show us your hair do's....

    I admit, I'm a tiny bit envious of y'all. Fleur?? Too cute! Everyone is more talented than me when it comes to hair. I'm hair-handicapped, and I just can't justify spending time on my hair. My hair cutrix understands this and it's also handy that I like my hair to be *classic classic classic* in...

    Suggestions Needed!

    I always find the best thing to do is to talk to everyone like a peer. Perhaps not about peer topics, but to relate to their spirit and character versus points of cultural reference. Maybe I'm being too abstract. Hmmm. I guess since so many people I encounter are emotionally immature (not...

    Sartorial Objections

    Hmmm, I can see what you are saying. Some more thoughts: I would find it a tiny bit disturbing if people really thought their opinions were "right" in regards to this. Even though I strongly dislike white gymshoes, I can't for a second believe that anyone who wears them would ever give two...

    Thanks Kim B! I will be sure to check it out. I have yet to find a powder that I can say, "I'll never wear anything else!"

    Sartorial Objections

    for me, the hard-core work out kind that gleam white and are styled much like many mini-vans of today. Chuck Taylors and the kind that Patrick Mcgoohan wore in 'The Prisoner' are not offensive to me in the same way.

    Sartorial Objections

    I agree. And a pet peeve isn't necessarily a judgement. It's like saying "The Godfather was a junk movie." That isn't a slight to everyone who likes the film, it's an opinion. I like and love many people whose fashion sense often confounds me. Fashion simply isn't that important to many, which...
