ARRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!

Labor Day game day, baby! How did you celebrate your 3 day weekend? I went to Milwaukee to catch a Pirates vs. Brewers game. The Buccos won, 5-2. Miller Park is one of those nutzo stadiums with a retractable roof. (and a giant slide and a rock wall) If you’re going to the Brewer’s stadium, don’t…

Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago

I’ve always felt very at home surrounded by stark white walls. Not like an insane asylum but a museum show room. Art museums are like big fancy houses. Beautiful things to look at. Things you’re not allowed to touch. I went to the MCA in Chicago yesterday. Plaid on plaid on black and bows. I…

yippyity-do-day-day it’s Independence Day!

STARS AND STRIPES! What are you wearing to show your American pride today? I kicked it anti-colonial style and stitched this flag together for the back of one of my Carhartt vests. Very patriotic, I must say, paired with my Gap Cami Dress and my Liberty Sky Highs. (Also let it be known that I…

Mr. Roshe goes to Washington

DC sightseeing gets you in the mood for The Fourth of July. So many important buildings and monuments, but half of the fun of sightseeing is people watching. If I see another pair of boat shoes, I think I might throw the offender of his imaginary boat. I was lucky enough to get on a…
