POOLSIDE: A HAIKU
We love, love the pool Oh, we do, we do, we do (bad curse word) WE’RE FRIED! Clearly, we’re meant to be poet laureates. Dare we say, together, we’re the Dr. Seuss of our generation. But, that point is moot in comparison to the revelation that all too often, more than just being revolutionary poets,…

WHERE TO: SCRIBE WINERY, SONOMA
Once upon a time, a long, long, long time ago, we hated wine. We also hated nature. And now look at us. Loving obsessing over the former, liking tolerating the latter — meaning, we guzzled wine like Bacchus on the hillside of Scribe Winery, looking out over the vineyard all like, “Okay, fine. We guess it’s, like,…

CIRCULAR SUMMER SUNNIES
Consider it our way of appearing to look intellectual while talking about such topics as Katy Perry and Lady Gaga, while also still managing to block harmful UV rays from our little, beady eyes. The more round the frames, the more intellectual (inquisitive, maybe?) we’ll appear to be. That’s a fact. Right? Right?? RIGHT?!?! Okay, maybe not. Just…

WEEKEND WITH US
Let’s make a pact. Kind of like a blood oath. Once you agree, you’re stuck. No turning back. Like, if you fail to comply, you’ll never have pizza again. Ever. Okay, that’s too harsh. But, let’s get to it — let’s make a pact. Let’s start weekending together. At the risk of sounding like an…

Step 1: Wake up. Step 2: Get dressed. Step 3: Wear what you want to wear. Step 4: ANYTHING. Step 5: ANYTHING AT ALL. Step 6: Just so long as it’s not a nude-colored leotard. That still makes us feel a little uncomfortable. Step 7: Look at yourself in the mirror. Step 8: You look…

BROWN BAGS
About two months ago, we were introduced to the beauty that is an ENORMOUS brown leather backpack — this one in particular, vegetable-tanned leather, by Saint Rita Parlor. It’s a feeling of, “Nah, I totally don’t need such a large backpack, I already have so many small backpacks, like I already have twenty Herschel and…

PINK AND BLUES
Around every corner in SF there’s a surprise. Sometimes it’s a cute house. Sometimes it’s human poop. And on rare occasions, you’ll find both at the same time, thus revitalizing your hope in the world that anything is possible. Fortunate for us, we only found a cute house we’d never seen before, and in that…

HOW TO: THRIFT THE PERFECT SHIRT
Step 1: Sift through hundreds upon hundreds of shirts, repeating ‘Ew’ as you go. Step 2: Ew. Step 3: Ew. Ew. Step 4: Ew. Ew. Eww. (Making note of the third ‘ew,’ elongated with an extra ‘w’ to enunciate just how dramatic, “can’t go on, this is the most difficult job in the world” you’re…

REAL MEN WEAR LINEN
Real men wear linen. So much linen. Which is all to say, we’re finding just another way to call ourselves real men, because, we’ve been wearing a lot of linen lately and we’d like to suggest that we’re very manly, so it only seems natural to correlate the two… The simple formula to manliness, solved.…
