"I'm looking California but feeling Minnesota" -Chris Cornell, "Outshined"





I'm really happy with these shorts, Finnistre or something. They're apparently a British brand but made in Portugal. I sometimes worry Portugal is the sweatshop of Europe, but the price would indicate otherwise. I got them on clearance, thinking it was the normal, reasonable price, and then I saw they are actually way more expensive. Cool. They are long enough that they sometimes even cover my embarrassing knees. And they are kind of dressy and kind of stretchy. Do Not Tumble Dry. Fancy.

I wore my surf shirt today from Wellen Surf Co and a pink American Giant San Francisco shirt (I wanted to make the Cali kids feel comfy)

Went for brown shoes (San Antonio Shoemakers) and brown belt (RPMWest, RIP), blue purple and grey socks because I don't have much variety to choose from in short socks (Pact fair trade organic cotton socks grown/made in India) and don't know where to get any more

It blows my mind every time that you can wear shorts to work. ^_^

It blows my mind that we're even here during the summer! We don't have an actual dress code, so it's just kind of like... do what you want until someone says otherwise... But I think I could wear a tutu and no one would say anything. Also, I think the fact that it's 90% women here sort of relaxes the rules, like basically as long as there isn't a bunch of boob and thigh showing, everyone is like, do whatever!

I suddenly want to go to work in a tutu. ^_^

I'm diggin' the shirt. Like the stripey pockets and sleeves.

Thanks! It's so darn comfy! I'm really happy how it fits, at least over a t-shirt. I got it during the winter on clearance and had only worn it under sweatshirts with the collar sticking out (works well for that, too). It's great! Can be worn under stuff, over stuff, with a long-sleeve, with a short-sleeve... It's meant to be worn just by itself, I'm sure, after surfing along with some chino shorts or whatever the california dudes do, but I wasn't too far off (well, except for the surfing part)

I like that song! I like Chris Cornell from STP, Stone Temple Pilots. But I figured Sound Garden and Stone Temple Pilots sort of resemble in either appearance in the music or the dudes similar. & I don't know why I'm not able to see the images.

Yeah I love STP too!
