Fashion Sense

I could have said, “Internet.” That would’ve made the whole exchange quicker, but I was so… EXCITED!

I digress…

So I park at the Pete’s Fresh (grocery) and I get a text from a friend with a link about ‘Menswear Advice & Style Guide.’ (It lines up because we were just talking about men’s sartorial choices the other day.) I get out of the car, take a selfie and text him right back. ‘I’m wearing my fashion sweater right now!’

I start walking to the store. A car stops the next row over and the driver shouts, “Hey, can I ask where you got that sweater?”

I do a very quick sarcasm check… It’s clean. But I want to make sure.

Steve: Seriously?

Car: Yeah.

Steve: Why?

Car: It’s cool.

Steve: Well, it’s a whole thing…

A woman is driving and there is a guy in the passenger seat. They’re probably in their mid 20s. They are an attractive couple with big friendly smiles. I point to the car behind them trying to back out and direct them over to the open space in front of me. They pull in.

Steve: Ok, I was in New York. We went to the theater. And you know, the thing about theater is you kinda gotta get dressed up a little, right?
