sock it to organization

I have been pitting holiday break time toward the upstairs bedroom, which currently functions as closet and storage. While it isn’t a new additional to the room’s organization, I consider it a cause for celebration whenever I get our socks paired, rolled, and stowed in their proper home. The home: Pictured above is four units, […]

sock it to me!

Seven hundred and some pairs of socks ago, I had an aversion to licensed characters on my hosiery. I felt they were too much commitment when I only wanted festive socks that supported my clothes. Well, today’s a new day, it would seem… The biggest haul in awhile now. I mean, the Fairly Odd Parents […]

happy anniversary

Life is full, and hectic. and full of projects to make the new home photogenic, including Dressing Room 2.0… December 29 was the first anniversary for me and my Boo. I wanted to get him a small something for the wardrobe he has been gracious enough to allow me to expand for him. I knew […]

runway homo

October 3rd opened up Kansas City Fashion Week. For the second time this fall, I walked for the stunning and talented Andrea Minnette Bledsoe, designer and proprietress of Recrudescence Studio. Andrea has broken new ground, electroplating organic material and adding it to her language of found vintage material. She has also started her journey into […]

eldredge revisited

I give to you a photo I forgot to post awhile back; a more successful capture of the Eldredge knot: I do enjoy this knot, even considering the limitations of its usage. Or perhaps due to such limitations. I do enjoy rules applied to my journey through life… Journey on, my lovelies!

daily occasions – more than a week in review…

My internet attendance is splotchy at best. My desire of late to document clothing choices in a decrepit hallway. Both issues may be addressed soon… Meanwhile, allow me to share the moments I managed to turn on the camera: Can you guess which were from St Patty’s Day? And I have been moving onward in […]

fancy dress occasion

Last night was an opportunity to dress to the nines. Well, these days, any night is a reason for that… I found a great pair of Doc Marten saddle oxfords, and focused on them for the entire ensemble. The jacket is a dark grey wool by Jos A Bank; the trousers a black and white […]

tying the knot anew

A friend posted a link to a how-to over on Facebook. I was curious. It is called the Eldredge knot. It has limits as to the pattern that can be used with it; the smaller, the better. Here’s the how-to, over on black lapel.

pushing past the mood

It may be easy to notice that dapperkink has been light on content recently. A move last year left me in a space in dire need of attention. So much so, that I don’t even have a decent backdrop for photo-shoots. This has been halting me from documenting anything in terms of my evolving personal […]
