bundling up

Picked up along recent travels in Maine, New Hampshire and upstate New York, these are a few staples for this winter's wardrobe.

Woolrich cable knit sweater with shawl collar and brown leather knot buttons.


I'm always on the look out for good thermals that balance worn-in comfort with a good measure of secondhand neatness. Maybe not the star of the show, but simple finds like this make me happy... an ivory henley, soft and clean with a label faded into anonymity.


Women, you are not forgotten...

UK-manufactured pale peach pointelle long underwear, very delicate and feminine. Size small.



Late '80s/early '90s - made in the US - wool tribal print coat. Hooded and tied at the waist to wrap up for optimal lovability.



Wool plaid shirt that is cut long like a jacket, making it the perfect layering piece.  Better yet, it's equipped with suede elbow patches. Unlabelled, small-ish in size.
