Man Morsel Monday - Mission (San Francisco)

noreply@blogger.com (JT Paradox) — Mon, 21 May 2012 20:59:00 +0000

People often ask where the term "morsel" or "man-morsel" came from. Look no further. This man--Victor Solomon, once questioned me on my motives for using the word "morsel" when describing some of the lovely female subjects I photographed. He pointed out how the usage could obviously be perceived as sexist and rude. That was not my intention at all, because I have always used the term affectionately.

So, I rebutted: "Men can be morsels too."
Victor: "Well let's see some Man-Morsels on your blog."
(Up to this point, there really weren't many men posted on SFS)

...and the rest is history. So you have Victor to thank for our beloved tradition of stylish and scrumptious men posted on mondays (whenever possible).

Mothers' Day - Mom as a Stewardess in the Sixties

noreply@blogger.com (JT Paradox) — Mon, 14 May 2012 21:06:00 +0000

This is my mother as an air hostess during the 1960s.
When she saw that recent television show--PAN AM, she said: "Let me show you what the fashion REALLY looked like back then!"
I spent the entire day yesterday with my mother, and I've written a post in honor of her on my own blog: (With many more photos of my mother's epic life). www.MuchBloggery.com
I hope all of you had a wonderful Mothers' Day.

4 YEARS OF STREET FASHION STYLE!

noreply@blogger.com (JT Paradox) — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 21:06:00 +0000

Faithful SFS readers. Today is my birthday, and this month also marks the 4th year for our street style fashion blog! Dyanna and I will continue to work at bringing you the most inspirational street fashion, without fail. Work is also in progress for a SFS book--and if all goes as planned, it should hit shelves next year. None of this would be possible without loyal followers like you. Thank you sincerely for the support.

I also have a new side project--a personal blog of considerable depth and complexity. I have a lot of stories and inspirations I will be sharing, and I now have the time to compose it all for you. So if you enjoy my musings and daft antics, I've got a new personal blog. MUCH BLOGGERY is afoot. --JT

Catie of Cuffington and Dronning Vintage - San Francisco, Fillmore Street

noreply@blogger.com (JT Paradox) — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 21:58:00 +0000

This is Catie, a very dear friend and one of my favorite SFS alums (with many appearances, including her debut). She has an outstanding blog of her own--Cuffington. One can see her whimsical designer style there, and purchase vintage goods from her own lovingly curated etsy shop--Dronning Vintage. She's living the dream, as any morsel should.

Suspenders + Spring Color + Interesting Proportions - Downtown San Francisco

noreply@blogger.com (JT Paradox) — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 20:42:00 +0000

Scouring the city for morsels can often be like an evening in a casino. Some days you walk for hours and find nothing--and some days you hit that jackpot! When I crossed paths with this lovely maiden, it was rather evident by our interaction that she was clearly not a local, and that is sometimes the best street fashion style find. Morsels from elsewhere can often introduce a different perspective with their outfits, and I adore her version of "overalls". The components of her outfit are all very refreshing to me: leather suspenders, scarf, the proportions of her trousers--are all a clever twist on some familiar staples.
