9tailors

It was so fun the first time, we did it again. A couple of weeks ago I spent a few days with 9tailors exploring downtown and the seaport district. Thank you to Sam, Alex and Austin for making sure everything ran smoothly. And thank you to all the stylish 9tailor clients (including cameos by the […]

Kansas City

Brooke and I took a trip westward last month. We visited our friends Adam and Melissa in Kansas City. They just bought a house and are expecting a baby. I’ve known Adam since he was a teenager. In fact, we partially regress to that age range when we reunite. But look at him all grown […]
