If Maxminimus had a son


Work with me here a minute.

If you don't you should, but I suspect that each of you reads the worthy jottings of eminent grise Maxminumus regarding those items which amuse him, those things he values and his daughter whom he cherishes. It is a must read.

Since you are familiar with the ways of his lovely daughter LFG, imagine what Maxminimus' son would look like. How would he dress?

The Sartorialist has provided the answer, take a gander at this lad. Band collar shirt, just enough shirt cuff showing, braces in place, hand firmly around his wallet, over the calf sox and suede monks to die for. This kid is the bees knees.

Just sayin'.

A DNA test may be warranted. Something you want to tell us ADG?

Swooning for this little guy!

I saw the little guy earlier and thought how cute he was...

However, I have to take exception to the Max. connection. The socks are much too tame for him to be his offspring.

I bet there is a braided bracelet under that cuff.

You know ADG travels quite alot...lonely nights on the road, one too many stoli's, some girl sees the striking image of ADG across the room, he breaks out his copy of "Slow Love Life", and who knows. Although the observation about the socks is spot on, its the monks that give him away.

DNA test, yea--I think so

I was supposed to chuckle at this....but the little fella made me well up a little bit. But that's ok...I cry when the wind blows. I'd love to have had a zillion little young'uns.

This little man is bangin' about a 12 on the pediatric style meter! And regarding the socks...I figure he pitched a tantrum and said..."give me a break daddy...I ain't wearin' them orange socks with balloons on the again today!"

spit the coffee all over the monitor! you owe me.

HEY! I just went back and enlarged the little tyke's picture. His socks ARE fuzzy enough. Are you kidding me? He has little tassel/pom-poms hanging off of his socks. No need for any patterns if you are sporting that kind of hosiery complement.

And finally, the trousers are flat front-side tabbed babies with western/top pockets. If he ain't my young'un, he oughta be.

Flusser pull-ups........and onesies............perfect!

I guess they already make patch madras pull-ups ?

OK. The Monk strap will do.....but with petite Belgique we wouldn't need the DNA
