Soccer Watch

Its Friday!!! Very exciting.

Anyways, I bought my friend this watch for his birthday a while back.  I think its great.



I bought it on Ebay, and it arrived a few weeks before the big day.  It sat on my desk, staring at me, constantly teasing me.  I wanted it for myself.  I wanted to rip open the box, and feel the smooth rubber against my wrist.  I wanted to blog about my new treasure. I wanted the hipster glory, it was all but mine... 

Unfortunately, I had already told his stupid girlfriend about it, so I couldn't give in to temptation.  Probably for the best I guess.  For my friend that is, not me.  :(

That was several months ago, but every time I see that World Cup logo on his wrist, I grow green with envy.  So I recently went snooping around the web to see if I could find a similar item for myself. And well, I actually found a slight variation that I may like even better.  




It would still be kind of lame to buy it, but no friendship can truly trump a great watch.  I'll have to think about it.

Enjoy the weekend,

Monday Madness

As my boy Kanye sort of once said:

I've always had a passion for fashion, before I buy it,
I close my eyes and imagine...

And I imagine that I may have to buy this sweatshirt soon.

Vintage ACC Tournament Sweatshirt $26


The picture isn't great, so make sure to click the link for a few more angles.  It's so cool.  The "bros" will love it.

But OK so if I were wearing this, I might pair it with this vintage tissot.

Vintage Tissot $145


And now lets pretend I'm in a cool urban basketball league, and I'm walking to the game, wearing my watch, and my sweatshirt. But where do I put my gym clothes?  Gotta find a bag.

Vintage Purple Nike Gym Bag $75 or Best Offer


I think I'd offer $40.  75 is way too much.  But just to complete the look, I think these shoes would do.

Clae Gregory $100


But no pants, I'm not wearing pants.

Happy Monday,

Shoes

My Dad once told me that I was the only person he knew who had more shoes than my Mother. But unlike her, no peep-toe pumps, no sparkling flats.

Straight dunks.

In high school I was all Nike. My old high school sweetheart (miss you girl <3 ) used to say that I had ten pairs of the same kind of shoe. She was kind of right.  But also, very wrong.

I've moved on since then, branched out shoe-wise, became a man, etc, etc.  But anyways the point is, I like sneakers. So naturally, I kind of want this print.

Sneaker Print $32



I call it, "Shart"  Shoe art.

Socks and Stuff

Needsupply just added some new socks to their site.  Similar to the Stance socks I posted way-back when, these are my favorite of the bunch.

Socks in Black $24


Love it! Ok anyways, check out my well-dressed friend.



"Don't put this on your fu*king blog"

Whoops....  Ok now that I've pissed him off, check out this sweet L.L. Bean pullover I splurged on last night.


Call me cray, but I love it.  And it was only $15 dollars!  Lets hope it fits.  Some of these things can get pretty expensive though, so maybe this is just a good investment as opposed to another waste of money.  Take this pricey piece for example.



Purple swag.  OK I think I'm done here, but in the spirit of vintage shopping, I give you, my role model...

Shirts

If the Yankees play like they did in Game 2, I'll probably post a few more times tonight. If they don't, then... Hooray! that will be fun.

Anyways, I found a great seller on Etsy for vintage shirts. Here are a few of my faves.



Soccer!!! Cool shirt. OK on to the next one.



Maine!!! I like shirts with elk, moose, deer, etc. But lets keep this marathon going. Get ready for a segue tour!! No not the weird scooter, transitionary phrases!  

Incredibly, I think this shirt was already purchased:


Would have been the first addition to my novelty maternity line!!! I probably shouldn't have posted that, kind of stupid, oh well bear with me I have some gems coming.

But not yet, first we have...



I feel like Saved by The Bell threw up on that shirt. Gross.  Now on to the three shirts I actually really want.  



MJ swag. Always classic. Retro sports is usually an easy sell for me. Take this next one for example.



That one is pretty cool, but this last one is definitely my favorite.



Amazing right? In other news the Yankees are still hitless...
