Aristotle thought art imitates life.

Oscar Wilde thought life imitates art.

Here's a living person imitating art by wearing trousers the same color as part of the art.

Unless you lived in Los Angeles before 1969 you probably have no idea what that thing behind me is and you probably never had a slice of Helms Olympic Bread.

The fountain is shaped like the Olympic Rings on the Helms Olympic Bread package.

In a few years Helms Coaches will seem as ancient to the living as King Too-Damn-Common or Queen Half-Set-Up and all the other dead Egyptians.

Brooks Brothers corduroy jacket and Madras BD shirt, Burberry Nova Plaid pocket square, Vineyard Vines Nantucket Red trousers, white cotton socks from Marshall's, and Bass white bucks.

Here's the bronze plaque next to it.

Here's what it looks like without me sitting on it.

The former Helms Olympic Bakery is now the Helms Bakery District, a vast collection of restaurants and store selling furniture and related products.

Here's a view between two of the buildings.

A little further on.

Hot day. Somehow as my wardrobe grows, I always find myself reaching for the most familiar and safe pieces.

Really simple combo here - navy merino polo made by Umbria Verde, bespoke trousers from Whitcomb & Shaftesbury in Fox Air cloth, and the trusty old Edward Green Belgravias which seem to go well with pretty much anything.

Happy Tuesday all, it's supposed to reach near 100° F here in the Motor City so short sleeves and linen were a must. I love this polo because it fits near perfect and I think it's a nice, not tooooo loud, shade of pink for a hot Summer's day (if paired with lots of neutral colors).
