Character Driven – Mr. Bruce
It’s been ages since I hammered out one of these posts.
In the Character Driven series, a single fashion find is fleshed-out, through its pairing with other items-of-interest, into a full-fledged, fictional figure, complete with a Treasury-issued name, age, and symbolic style signature.
I’ve never quite had the right pipes for pulling off a sleeveless look, but this dirt cheap T from KleinWorld was so pick-up-truck tough it begged to be worn by someone better-stemmed and stylish, even if that someone was entirely imaginary. Introducing well-armed (get it?) handyman, Roscoe Bruce.
Long days of sawing and hauling have left his arms too bulging and self-beloved for any top saddled down with sleeves, although, in these still shivery days of early Spring, such silly skin-flashing has left poor, stubborn Mr. Bruce with a chronic cough helped only by the constant popping of Smith Brothers honey drops.
