The Rest of The World Is Three Drinks Behind

I suppose the best place to venture is into the life of those who influence mine. The epitome of such legends is Humphrey Bogart. The actor that made cynics into heroes and women into lovers lived a fast and vicarious life, his life claimed by the very things he enjoyed most. A VERY heavy drinker and lover of good times, Bogart was one of the lucky few that could stay up until 4am and prepare for work just a few hours later. I am not one of those lucky few. But his legendary wit and sharp mind has left us with amazing stories and iconic images.

he needs to ash that.an iconic image complete with iconic coat, buttons and all.

None could hold the reigns of Bogart except the one Laura Bacall, a fine catch sir, fine indeed.

All Shook Up


Ahoy,

Why is it that in a world of a billion ideas, each of us can become infatuated with but the smallest of attractions? The shadow of a tree, the angle of an architectural piece, the simmer of a warm lamp and the writing on a bottle can all captivate our minds. This blog is here to present some of (what I think) are the most energetic, interesting and stylish designs in our tangible world. I'll be focusing mostly on the trivial; mens clothiers, interior design pieces, object design and of course women. Look to find some eclectic and warm pieces on this site, placed to enhance our sense of physical placement and desire on this earth. I am a lover of many, ranging from the classics of the past to the eccentric of today. Check back often, I promise to do my best to engage you with only the most wonderful of thoughts.

Sincerely,
Thomas LaCroix
