Boston saw her first real snow fall today, and I for one welcome it with open arms. Of course, nearly every conversation I had was peppered with complaints, as complaining about the weather, no matter what it may be, is something of a New England pastime. I think we've gotten too soft around here with our recent mild Winters, and I remember when I was a child that snow began to fall in November and didn't stop until April. I view today's weather as a reassuring sign that perhaps mankind has yet to ruin everything. Besides, when you have cold weather, you get to wear tweed.

How can you complain about a little snow when the clothes are this good?
Must have that tie...hunter & dog...excellent!
ReplyDeleteI love that tie and the many clothes you feature here. Much of it seems very British in style and if you weren't so far from London I'd be visiting!

It's always a good day when I can break out the Woolrich white/red/yellow/black blanket coat with ridiculous 70s lapel. After last years warm winter I'm ready for some freezing weather!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'll give you last year as a mild winter, but two years ago we got buried. I was shoveling in my bespoke snow suit.
ReplyDeleteOnly thing that matters is the pretentious ascot.
ReplyDeletePlease please please lose the silly ascot.
ReplyDeleteAny chance you might be willing to pre-sell that tie? I'm really diggin' it....
ReplyDeleteLove the blast of colors, winter is the best for dress!
