  What you’ll want to wear when you find yourself at or near a cow pasture on a country road on a lovely spring evening (in South Central while drinking your juice in the hood) are as follows: Unstructured navy cotton blazer and light blue oxford (both JCP), camouflage pants (Dockers Alpha Khaki), double monk wingtips (Cole Haan). That’s my recommendation anyway, take it or leave it or take it or steal it. #copORdrop #cow$

  Hey there, loyal DPT reader: I’m back with a brand new wrap, and by “brand new wrap” I mean I took an accidental week off, my bad. I do hope your forgiveness is in my near future.

  Something I’ve experienced lately is the bipolar weather in the great state of Texas – it is something very popular to complain and make jokes about, so I plan to do neither. What I DO wanna chat about today is the fact that even though it’s May, some forget that it might/on occasion, still be cold. “WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, DPT?!” you might be yelling at your screen. “IT’S MAY AND THAT MEANS PARROT HEAD PARADISE TILL OCTOBER!” While you would normally be right, a recent turn of events in the Texas meteorology category make you o-so-wrong, brother(s).

  This past week, a cold front blew thru D-town and made the weather on all our iPhone screens look like this:

  Summary: It was cold. Probably cold enough to warrant some outerwear. Unfortunately, many of my Dallas brethren were determined to show the world the “Tote$ Spring/Summer” mentality they had already adopted, and none were about to travel back in time to the dreariness of winter. How could they? These tanx are available to buy, right now!As Marie Antoinette once uttered, “Let them wear shorts.” And boy, did they. Shorts, tees, flip flops, naked, all of it.

  So what am I going on about? What’s my point? My point is that Taco Bell now offers Cooler Ranch Dorito tacos, but also, to wear clothes suitable for the weather, not the date on the calendar. The two often don’t match up, especially in odd and ambiguous months like April, May, June, July, August, September, October, and November, as well as the rest of them. Anyhow, this is what I wore today, and yes, I was quite warm, unlike this guy.

  I’d like to shout out to this St. John’s Bay flannel (JCP) and this Band of Outsiders baseball jacket for making me so incredibly #HI/LO this morning.

  J to the C to the P-enney

  Hello and good evening, dear reader.

  I’d like to talk, as everybody and their respective Tumlr will be, about JCPenney (aka JCP, aka JCPhresh, aka “work” if you’re a small town teen) and the recently announced departure of Nickelson Wooster.

  Because blogvourite (that’s “blog” and “favourite”, spelled the bougie way, mashed into one word) Sir Nickelson and I will no longer be sharing a city, I compiled several looks made of JCP wardrobe basics, and then wore said look$ in/around a park.1. Stafford cotton unstructured blazer. The best part is, you can wear the sleeves however you’d like: Rolled, as shown, or unrolled, as not shown, or you can hack the sleeves off and then have a Stafford cotton unstructured sleeveless blazer, it really is entirely up to you.2. jcp French Terry Crew Sweater and Oxford Shirt. For those of you looking to bring up your basic white oxford game, but aren’t necessarily wanting to soar upwards to $41, you’re in luck: This one’s $40. If the country club is more your scene, you’re also in luck, as jcp accommodates champagne tastes as well! Observe that which I refer to:Should you pick up a sweater, and I highly recommend you do, I suggest going up a size, as this little guy shrank some.3. jcp Printed Polka Dot Shirt. This shirt has polka dots on it and can help its wearer bend it like Beckham, as shown here (shout out to Kendall for letting me use her soccer ball).The Wooster revolution at JCP brought several very good things to the #BallerOnABudget, chief among them being simple wardrobe staples that fit properly. Even though Mr. Wooster is now gone from JCP, his impact will be felt well into the fall, where he has already promised the presence of some of dat heavy tweed game. But no need to cry, Dear Reader. Chill (the fuck) out and rest assured that for at least six more months, you’ll be able to cop Wooster-era goods at the JCP.Special thanks to the great and powerful Madison for agreeing to photograph me for this post.

  NEW ACQUISITION ALERT

  It’s Friday night, y’all. Do you know where your children are? If you’re my mother, and only one of you are, then you can rest assured that your son is safe and sound in his apartment watching Breaking Bad, occasionally taking breaks to eat and blawg. If you aren’t my mother, then I have no idea what to tell you.

  As I was saying, it’s Friday night, and I recently received a UPS package. Inside the package was the following: Before you start asking, yes, I do my all own stunts, and yes, that is a hooded raincoat/pullover thing from Band of Outsiders. The pullover (hereafter solely referred to as The P.O.) has a few details worth noting, most notably the kangaroo-like pocket at front and center, which is perfect for storing your wallet, keys, mineral water, or iPhone. I’ve demonstrated one of these things here:The P.O.’s white hardware (zipper, for those in my readership who identify as “farmers”) is big and chunky, something that lends to the whack-a-doodle-doo quality of the overall piece.

  Additionally, the lining is quite lovely. All in all, I’m definitely prepared to say that I like love The P.O. (4 sho).
