Wasteland Wandering

Gah! Color! 

I Did A Thing

I went outside wearing color. Not only color but a *hoodie.

And my outfit was themed.

Opting to play a little with layering, I mostly wanted to discover if my new jacket had enough space to have a thicker material under it and still not choke me with sweat.

So?

T plus hoodie plus denim jacket was much more breathable than expected. This felt like a very successful sartorial exploration. But, wow, did I feel weird wearing color out of the house.

Which was good because we went foraging and came home with ~20 pounds of vegetables. O_O Sweaty digging.

WIWT

• UB901 raw denim jacket
• Denizen jeans
• Redwing Blacksmith in burgundy (I was incorrect when saying they were Iron Rangers before)

Theme: Fallout

• Fallout Wasteland Whiskey t-shirt
• Fallout Vault 101 hoodie

It Me!

Black, black, denim, and more black.

So square. 

I got complimented on this look today. That’s two days in a row and three times this week. So to say people are noticing?

As to how this is affecting interactions, I have no observations yet but I feel more confident which will absolutely have an effect.

WIWT

• Old Navy v-neck sweater
• Denizen dark jeans
• Perry Ellis belt (reversible, black side out)
• Kenneth Cole Reaction Lash Out shoes
• Unbranded UB901 selvedge raw denim jacket
• Apple Watch 1 with black sport band

Jacket came yesterday. It’s amazing. The arms, shoulder, and length are perfect. It’s a little tight to button because of my belly but, as I discovered today, I’m down another half shirt size (ish) - medium straight cut from large fitted.

You can also see my necklace in the photo. That is a wampum bear given to me at a Lakota Sundance. I was the support for a friend who was dancing - I brought him water in the evenings, kept him sane. I’ve been wearing the necklace everyday since I was 14. 20 years.

WIMB

• iPad Pro (9.7in) with keyboard case
• Apple Pencil
• Saddleback Leather four card wallet
• Baron Fig Squire pen
• Weird little pull tab from a Prospector’s Cold Press

Mostly the same as before with a few changes. Need more stickers.

What I wore today

Sorta?

My outfits don’t quite differ enough day to day yet to not make this really boring. But every couple of days, sure.

Today was a beautiful day so I went for a run.
