Tattersall Tuesday. . .

Still having fun with my clothes here in Mid-Michigan this morning between entering grades into the ol' learning management system for some of last week's homework in one course and submitting an abstract for a conference at the end of next March.

A little less beyond the sartorial pale today with a shirt from Mercer & Sons beneath a Belvest cotton suit. Probably getting a little on the cool side for the latter at this point, but I really like the mossy green color. By the way, the necktie is Robert Talbot, shoes and belt from Allen Edmonds, and socks from, naturally, Dapper Classics.

As I always suggest, dressing presentably need not require much time or thought. Yes, that is clear based on yesterday's slightly busy ensemble. Just have everything organized, together, and hang, or lay out your clothes for the next day before retiring for the evening. Easy!

The Pleasaures of a Well-trained Dog. . .

A few final photographs from my visit to my sister in Washington, D.C. last week. These include one of 'Mr. Beau,' my sister's meticulously trained and truly wonderful Doberman, another of my sister, second cousin, step-father, and yours truly on the steps of the church outside Lexington, North Carolina just after our late mother's interment service, two of me solo at the National Cathedral, and a final one of my sister and me hamming it up during a long evening walk the day before I returned to Michigan. My sister routinely walks to the cathedral, about three blocks from her place, to enjoy the grounds and gardens. The Bishop's Garden, in particular, is a place she likes to sit for quiet contemplation and internal dialogues with our late maternal grandparents and mother, very much in keeping with the Episcopal side of things. Our grandfather, who was raised Methodist, became an Episcopalian when he married our grandmother. Before you ask, I am not sure tha

Almost Mid-June Sunday Style. . .

A fter two months, Blogger has decided to allow me in the door once again, so I can add a long overdue post documenting my take on classic male style. Since we are almost in the throes of summer, let's go with a warm weather theme this morning. Now, the items above will not be to everyone's taste: Deck shoes without socks, shorts, pleats, skinny pale legs, etc. All invite tisk-tisking and debate in certain online fora, but that's ok. I wouldn't wear attire this to campus Monday through Friday, or to church. But for relaxed, comfortable warm weather-wear around the house during the weekends, with maybe a quick trip down the road for a gallon of milk at the super market, this will do nicely, thank you very much. It's certainly preferable to the wrinkled, torn, stained sloppy alternative we see everywhere in 2022. Neither is it at all far removed from how the various men and boys across three generations of my extended family presented themselves during even
