Yes, good eye! It seemed like a more colorful version of the “summer tweed” that they had awhile ago, so I got it when it was on sale. The linen trousers are also theirs. The polo and shoes are Yeossal.

I tried to do the same but my size went too quick.

Deep leather chairs that used to belong to our In Laws.

This makes me long for the days I lived much closer to the ocean in Florida. I spent many summers in the Keys with family fishing and snorkeling. One day we will have a place near the ocean again.

Celebrated our 8-year anniversary last night with a robot pose.

Ezra Paul hopsack jacket, Kamakura leno shirt, The Wardrobe linen pants, Baudoin and Lange strides.
Dinner at Rania was great. This was the highlight for me: the shrimp koliwada. Spicy and delicious.

No pictures of my fabulous fit (Portuguese flannel linen shirt)

But a pic of a birthday Negroni

Bloody Mary’s here in the Jersey Shore this time of day. It’s like being in an airport, no real rules on booze here.

Anyone see this so called tornado?

 

[hpreston]

We were under a watch, but it never went to warning…. No reports in the MD area of an actual tornado. At this point, the storm seems to have completely passed.

Was drinking at Fiola when the torrential downpour happened but no tornado.

Am still on Jersey Shore watching storms flash by.

Morning ferry with dolphin escort. Much nicer to skip Mem Day traffic and wait an extra day.

I am jumping into the forum on the DC thread.
I spend a lot of time in the UK and enjoy the traditional Turkish barbering experience. Ted Baker has several locations in London and there are many excellent independent shops in the Southwest were I grew up. I have not found anything similar in DC. Although there are many barbers from Turkey, they do not off traditional services. I tried the Grooming Lounge at Tysons but thought it was disappointing. Does anyone have recommendations?

Presale tomorrow. She is really good.

I went to a barber in Courthouse plaza years ago and they were from Turkey, but I’ve no idea what a traditional Turkish barbering experience is.

I think they do nose hair waxing and the fire thing to burn excess hair.
