Aberdare_Park_entrance

I’m such a firm believer that designers do not create in a vacuum. They take inspiration from all around them and clothing designers are definitely inspired by other clothing brands. Did Nike sportswear designers have some I.T.’s from the Polo Ralph Lauren Aberdare series?

My favoirite piece in this ‘Fit is the flag which Dirty Jerz gifted me with when he came to NYC a few years back for the Bring Your Own Blogger BBQ.

You can’t really see the tiger camo SB socks in this pic but trust me they are making sure this safari expedition outfit keeps it wild.

The Aberdare series rugby is such a classic that I should have bought two(2) of them when I had the chance.

The Safari Foamposite is covered in 3M dots. When the light hits them you see the pop

I love the Foamposite shoe.

I’m trolling Bloomingdale’s like a muvv right now. They have a few pieces I want to add to the archive and they have a section that is taking 50% OFF the lowest ticket price.

I caught this jacket in that section and I’ve been surprised to see how many remain. The Tim field boots were an eBay steal tho’. Y’all still sleeping on the Timberland field boot. Don’t say I didn’t warn you that its going down this year.

PRL’s Modern Explorer series returned in fall 2013 with a consistent pedigree. It wasn’t too flashy, but it was well made wearable design. These are the pieces that become your weekly staples for years to come.

Macy’s and Modells are two of the classic NYC spots for you to come up on some affordable luxury.

I’m feeling these urban hiker Timberland boots called the Intervale Mids. The shoes are waterproofed and insulated but mostly they are affordable quality. Modells had them for $90 and I kick myself for not copping these from 6pm.com when they were selling them for $65

Macy’s coupon for this weekend is an additional 25% off of regular priced items and clearance pieces. $25 for the kniot and $35 for the zip-neck pullover.
