Up Too Early

Streetview fashion critique from Fifth and Congress

Sartorial Streetview: Fifth and Congress
Sartorial Streetview: Fifth and Congress

Yes, it’s too early in the goddamned morning, but not too early to rock this sweet beige suit with highwater trousers, Hush Puppies, and Robert Duvall Apocalypse Now aviators on the corner of Fifth and Congress. This is a look that says, “I slept with a transvestite hooker last night and had to walk back to my car at the Capitol parking garage.”

Even still, this player is keeping it on the DL … with the small exception of that index finger he has tucked into his belt line, fishing for crabs.

LuvDoc fashion index rating: 7.5 (.5 extra for the My Name Is Earl sideburns).
