Fall Words and Fall Mens Fashion
Welcome to Fall. The Mets have lost and the leaves have died.
The vibe in New York City changes in the fall. Something about the city cooling down before a rough winter has everyone feeling a little more mellow with more depression than they would like. I'm not sure if that's everywhere or if I am projecting.
I came across a poem I liked that really honed in on my mood and the vibe of the city for the time being.
Autumn Dusk in Central Park by Evelyn Scott
"Featureless people glide with dim motion through a quivering blue silver;
Boats merge with the bronze-gold welters about their keels.
The trees float upward in gray and green flames.
Clouds, swans, boats, trees, all gliding up a hillside
After some gray old women who lift their gaunt forms
From falling shrouds of leaves.
Thin fingered twigs clutch darkly at nothing.
Crackling skeletons shine.
Along the smutted horizon of Fifth Avenue
The hooded houses watch heavily
With oily gold eyes."
Get it? Skeletons, featureless faces, etc. You get it. Fall. Dead.
Anyway...With this vibe comes more interesting fashion choices. We have ditched the khaki shorts and grabbed sweaters. Here are some images from the most recent fall lookbooks that I have been enjoying.
Some vibe music just cause.
