Mint Rigging: What I'll Wear This Weekend

That's right, I verbed "rig" for fashion's sake (not to be confused with that sailing apparatus) and to me, rigging is simply the act of styling. Or putting an outfit together. Or just donning a bunch of sweet looking threads together. Either way, I love a solid outfit rig and I try not to think about my own too carefully, but sometimes, I come across a solid piece that will drum up the amateur stylist in me and make me play with ways I can wear it.

One such piece is this man repelling pair of denim from Allsaints.


Perfect boy fit. Perfect drop crotch. Perfect wax coating. Perfectly weird and interesting. 

These are cool enough that the rest of the look can be classic and clean. I guess you could go the whole girly-meets-edgy-meets-masculine route, but I prefer the androgyny-collide-with-classic look. If that makes any sense.

Anyway, I plan on wearing these bad boys with a few items that I wear on the daily. Like a classic men's button down, a beaded belt and a pair of oxfords. 

Shirt: Jack Spade, Belt: Maasai Vintage Beaded Belt, Shoes: Stuart Weitzman



Add a men's inspired watch, and maybe a bangle or two, and we're good to go. I may even toss on a jumper or cardigan for good cold-weather measure. 


So tell me, what the heck will you be donning this weekend post Tofurkey coma?

It's Crazy Warm

It's unseasonably warm here in the Bean. Some loves and I spent this past Sunday out enjoying the mild temps while they're still kicking around.

You know what I say to these Fall like temps?

Rig Deets: madewell jacket, Selima for Jack Spade sunnies, Zara sweater and Kate Spade bag.

Say, whattup to prolonged autumnal rigging, says I.

And here's a little snap of yours truly that my good friend Dan snagged while we were karate-ing in the leaves.

Cheers!
