Went Someplace Warmer
A Very Special Place
Always travel in a suit. I need to remind myself each time. I’m still working on the right luggages, bean beaning but totes starting to feel a bit too heavy. Maybe it’s because I got too much innit.. IDK, Just a laptop, caps, kids coat and some eyewear but oy, weighs me down in a non lux way. Travel should feel lux, not shleppish. I’ve never been a wheeled guy for carry-on but also feeling the need to be more hands-free to get them captures. Maybe its a backpack. ugh.
Feb 17 4:03pm Not shvitzing but super beat tired busted from traveling. Your rooms always ready pon landing when you’re looking this smart. My suit is from Monitaly SS15 and while I’d love to find links of similar items so I can make a few dollars off you shopping, I don’t think there are any even close options out there! You can find my new favourite coloured sweater though. Here is one and here’s a second
6:09 pm dinner at the hotel. so glad I traveled in these shoes. This is not a shabby joint
3:52 pm shopping the local straw stands, a break from the beach
Tiny island, tiny hats? FTR I have the smallest adult size head of anyone i’ve ever met. 6 7/8 fitteds are roomy on my precious head…my 6 3/4 bar mitzvah fedora still has paper towel folded in the sweatband and still fits
7:56 pm we visited the woman at the straw shack to pick-up a custom order for Isabella. YAK I had to see myself in this here hat though
.
Now I don’t typically don swim trunks for breakfast but this morning was an exception. Don’t tell em.
4:20 pm I always try and blend in with the locals. this trip was no exception
8:28 pm on walk home from dinner. Angel Ramos made my pink linen trousers and the shirt was last summers fav color if you remember! I spent the whole summer dreaming of faded oranges and found this thrifting as the summer ended!!! This was its debut. Thankful for warm vacations in the winter, spring training!! I say pack true tried tested outfits but I also say FTW go rogue, I didn’t even try on at home pre packing which I often enjoy doing before a trip. Anyhow, as usual I can’t find you my exact flavours but here are the only decent pink trousers I found online.
8:38 am I learned to get dressed for breakfast on this trip. Always wear a collar and proper footwear. (I ran back to the room and switched slides for loafers but the girls were waiting so no pic)
6:34 pm early dinner at the landing
7:58 am saying our goodbyes around the property and around the island. Will have to trade the sandals for shoes, add socks and hit the boat to the airport in a few hours. I’d wear a suit but we’re stopping in Miami and they don’t appreciate a suit there.













Forgive me for a dreadfully dull question, but do have any rules about when you tuck a shirt in vs when you let the shirttails fly?
