Are You Kidding Me?

I feel that if I were going to create a version of The Sartorialist for Seattle, I would have to call it "Are You Kidding Me?" Which was my entire internal monologue when I saw a guy during my walk to work wearing a short-sleeved shirt in a nondescript brown plaid and a tan/brown security-guard-stripe tie. Quite a few would-be Dukes of Windsor running around this town . . . some perhaps on acid. Like the guy we saw at lunch wearing kind of a miniature porkpie hat—too small in all its dimensions, but fitting his head—sloppy-looking pants with the crotch extending to about knee level and spectator loafers. And not sleek spectator loafers but big, clown-like sloppy-guy spectator loafers that probably lingered at Nordstrom Rack for quite some time.

Anyway, this particular blog will not be happening. "Hi, you have an interesting look—can I photograph you for my fashion blog?" "Yes, it's called 'Are You Kidding Me?'".
