“More to Come”

Since the whole premise of my blog is based around a fabric pun, it seems appropriate to highlight some clothes that embody that idea in the first post.  I’m interested in textures of textiles, so I always gravitate towards unique materials in outfits.  With that in mind, one of the core elements of today’s outfit is the vintage Patagonia capilene pullover in navy blue.  This shirt has been around the block more than a few times, but has stood the test of time.  Capilene, for those who don’t know what it is (like myself), is a polyester material is reminiscent of a fleece, so it’s warm and it breathes well.  The other element in this outfit is the MyTrail down jacket.  I don’t normally go for a puff jacket, but this one suits me well.  It’s a polyester jacket with a goose down filling, which makes it very lightweight, but also surprisingly warm.  Aside from its material merits, I also am a big fan of its simple black color that is greatly complimented by its light-grey trim.  In these early days of spring where the weather can change on a dime, this outfit keeps it simple and effective.
