Why is Hermès making me look at "flâneur forever" advertisements in which there are no men.

Frankly I find their lack of faith in my familiarity with French inflection most disturbing.

Also it's not clever to append this slogan to a photo of a woman reclining on something. It's just insulting to my knowledge of fashion history.

Surprised that one doesn't say "flâneuse forever."

What's in the suitcase?

the bag likely contains a multitude of hermes lifestyle items for a typical weekend of leisure travel such as a cotton windbreaker ($3,000), leather notebook ($2,500), scented origami horses ($80, set of four), espadrilles ($530), and of course an hermes scarf ($650).

the bag itself looks like traditional hermes saddle leather (barenia) and I'd guess is probably $10,000 or so.

Without you mac I would be far less prepared to work in most of the offices I work in.

$10,000 just to make a great backpage add. SMH.

If the magazine I saw this in is still at the office I saw it in the next time I'm there I'm going to leave a passive aggressive stick 'em on it that says, "Flâneur? Je ne vois pas un homme dans la photographie."

Left the note. Hermès will be brought to its knees by the end of the week.

Sadly it wasn't an issue of Elle, because we all know I'm taking a massive L on this one.

hemes does have a nice ballcap

http://usa.hermes.com/man/accessories/hats-and-caps/configurable-product-h142047n.html?color_hermes=ANTHRACITE&nuance=1

and also I would recommend a flaneur bike

http://usa.hermes.com/surprise/bicycle/m-flaneur.html

if you would like to save money after these purchases yet still possess the elusive cache of a flaneur, I'd recommend a saint james boatneck tee

The funny thing about the bike is that it's not actually that expensive for a bike.

I know it's a casual bike, but Shimano Alfine is rather pedestrian.

We're going to open a luxury boutique one day and call it Dandies Andy. Brides who put "please R.S.V.P." on their wedding invitations will be shown the door promptly and without grace.

Sure we'll both have to change our surnames to Andy, but at what price beauty.

brides?

WOMEN?

my store will be exclusively for gentlemen of the most refined taste seeking wardrobe accoutrements and haberdashery which embody their capricious sexual orientation and ravenous hunger for sartorial indulgence.

It's funny because you know mac is last in line for the bathroom in his own clan.

So I just completed the guest bathroom.

That color scheme in a 1700's house...accommodating grandma's rails and still pulling off dem good bathroom vibes.

A maillot is a one piece swimsuit in fashion?

On a positive note, I can totes buy a gal a red and white polka dot pattern (a trashy fetish of mine

) swimsuit someday and pass it off as a case of misunderstanding what maillot à pois rouges really meant.
