Weekly Wrap Up

A new feature here at Perfectly Askew! Each week I will post a sort of summary of my week in pictures (though I must admit this post is a little bit more than a week..you'll be okay). It will be a collection of clothes, experiences, and inspirations. If you would like to be featured in the Wrap Up, send me a photo and you just may be featured!

Anchors Away

What better time to pick up sailing than during these beautiful and windy spring days? I recently have rekindled my love for sailing and found this great scan of an old book on picking up sailing in three days. So call the marina, find a first mate, and get out on the water!

Heres the link to the PDF!

Deer in the Spotlight

Discovery

Discovery's electronic beats will have you rolling down your windows to let the spring air inside. My current favorite tracks are Osaka Loop Line, So Insane, and Swing Tree. Good stuff.

Bridging the Gap

Tied Down

Own many. Wear often.

The Top Side of Life

The Sperry Top Sider is a preppy classic that can be worn on or off deck. Created in 1935, Sperry has had a good 75 year run. The herringbone design on the sole allows for maximum traction to keep you stable while the boom is swinging from port to starboard. And please, keep the socks in the drawer.

Skipping Class

Contra

Vampire Weekend's newest album, Contra, is wonderful from start to finish. Their summer sound is the perfect way to beat what's left of the winter cold.

Don't deny the urge to flip up your sport jacket lapel when play is pressed.
