Cactus: In Yellow Bloom
Here is something unexpected that was observed yesterday.
At one of my homes, where I haven't been for more than two weeks, a cactus sprang to life and produced this wonderful yellow flower.
The point is this cactus like those keeping it company in the above picture are very cheap cactus mix plants probably from the land of the Dutch that they sell at malls and such and are for this reason known in my household as Dutch mutants.
This one was a small round ball and morphed into some fingered thing.
However all is forgiven now that after over 15 years of non-descript existence, it has managed to give something this pleasing to the eye.
Cellphone pictures are only so good.
The previous time I had one of these Dutch mutants flower was on May Day in 2014, that's 8 years ago.

Experiencing the Seasons
Experiencing the seasons.. and the best way to do just that is maybe at a time of transition, like winter to spring time, for example.
Blue skies, white snows, green (artificial) grass on a soccer pitch, what more does one need?
The 501® Jean: Stories of an Original | Full Documentary
I have had and still have about 5 or 6 501s but usually went for looser cuts like 616, 618, 752 (or something) because my muscle bound legs did get into 501 that easy.

Today's Outing: Still Peacoat Season
Today's outing: the pea coat season is still going on but spring is in the air.
Some bite to eat.
I ate it all!
Although it took quite some time - little by little, pick by pick, you know.
Flied lice was pretty good ).
From the peas back to the pea coat.
The pea coat is a Banana Republic thing, not current, from about two years back, on the tag it says Melton wool, on the label, Fabric by Mario Berlucci for BR, that's all I know.

Urban Cookie Collective - Tales from the Magic Fountain (1995) - Full album
A blast from the past too... nobody probably remembers it as the album failed to chart in the UK.
But I have it in my collection

Tenet Suits
Some suited protagonists in Nolan's movie Tenet, there are lots of suits but I'll just focus on the principal characters.
First, some summer jobs.
The collar is always buttoned for the protagonist when there is no tie.
Nolan seems to have a thing (which shall remain unnamed) for (men in) suits and Tenet is no exception.
This one is a brown suit.
Sir Caine himself.
The tie seems to be nicely coordinated with the color of the lunch the man is having (or pretending to, Shakespeare troupe style).
Yes, the suit is brown (although I could have sworn from the earlier two pictures that it was grey).
Brown in town on a black man in a white man's club, I look confused. In fact, I look confused the entire movie.
No offense but... Brooks Brothers doesn't cut it. May I recommend a tailor? (this is an approximate quote from the movie).
There was also something about the "English monopoly on snobbery" but it's so cringe inducing I won't reproduce it here.
Light grey three piece job.
Wooing the thoroughbred and blue blooded English rose of a lady and succeeding in it too by the look of it; but all the same it is the all powerful Russian oligarch who naturally has the full use of her body even if her heart seems not to be in it.
Nothing like two complementing sets of tailored clothes worn casually to introduce some homoerotic vibes (below).
DB no. 1
Maybe, there will be more.

Vintage Beer Labels Collage
Beer is one of the recurrent topics on this blog being one of my hobbies, so here is a collage of vintage beer bottle labels that I have found in some book.
The one below looks like a runaway favorite.
Old Soviet beer labels.
Actually this type of photography where you photograph some printed material or even a painting is known as copy photography and can sometimes produce great results, given modern highly capable cameras, if done right of course.
For example, if you have one of the top-notch cameras you could go to a museum, photograph a painting by the great master that you like and then quality-print the picture and voila! - you have something to hang on your wall! For free too!

New In: Bogart by Jacques Bogart eau de toilette
Here is something new for today... as in "new in my scent library"... but other than that, pretty old and in fact discontinued... but still widely available but mainly on the Internet.
Bogart by Jacques Bogart eau de toilette
Tried this on today but so far underwhelming.
It's fresh and green yet not enough projection after 6 sprays under clothes.
ETA:
Came home and re-sprayed it some, and, with just home wear on, it smelled stronger and strong enough for me to definitely like it this time - fresh, clean, after a while nice clean soapiness, and I personally like a bit of soapiness at the end.
I think I am going to try more sprays next time I wear it.
