What $1k gets you these days.

Like a Viking in a foreign village, I come to your websites to plunder your designer clothing selections and steal all your best...um, pictures of pretty clothes. Yarrr. (No, that's pirates. What the hell do Vikings say?) Today it's Tobi.com. Unfortunately for the pyromaniacally inclined I failed to burn anything down in my plundering, but here is roughly a thousand dollars worth of prettiness for you to look at.


You might look at this Rag & Bone tailcoat and wonder where you can wear it, but my question is, where can't you wear a coat this fabulous? Because I never want to visit there. The cut! The shape! The whole fact of it being a tailcoat! Finally, utilitarianism and Victorian gentleman chic have been combined. That collar!


Oh wow: my yearning for Diesel jeans is never going to go away, ever. As soon as a large sum of money falls unexpectedly into my lap I'm going to buy these Diesel Ronhar jeans, and then you know what's going to happen? Me neither, but I suspect it will involve my quality of life increasing by 65% or more.


And then sometimes simple is best, like with this cleverly pleated mod dress by Saint Grace. There's not a lot going on, but everything happening here is right. Let's hear it for simplicity done absolutely perfectly.


Tokidoki, my sin, my soul. I don't need another hoodie, but if I did, say, if I had any money left over from that unexpected windfall, I'd probably buy this Tokidoki hoodie and wear it with the Diesel jeans and feel fabulous and cool.
