I’m starting to think about Autumn.
My Summer purchases were done early and with the lousy exchange rate and rising cost of living were somewhat curtailed.
But that is no excuse for not looking towards Fall.

There are a number of things on the Wants List already but not from the conventional Ivy sources.
I like the idea of camp Mocs, Bean boots and a fleece lined LL Bean wind breaker.
Some might call this rugged Ivy but is it?
I know the Japanese coined the phrase but is it real or simply a marketing construct.
I suppose it’s East Coast casual.
Paraboot chunky loafers look good too. I know a number of chaps on here say how comfortable they are.

Great clothes are simply just great clothes and the labels attached to them don’t deter me.

I have always thought that in our modern age what passes for Ivy has expanded to cover lots of different bases.
