Harold Stallworth will always roots for the villain.
This year’s spring has been absurdly slow in arriving to Washington D.C., but better late than polar vortex. Bidding farewell to old man winter is a bittersweet occasion, seeing as how my dearest strains of music and fashion were born out of blistering winds and torrential snowfall. However, with new seasons come new beginnings, and it’s exciting to see the nation’s capital ripe with festivals, sundresses, cherry blossoms, and playoff basketball. Consider this my ode to bearable weather, bookended by the greatest instrumentals of all time, and furnished with gods of style and arbiters of taste. Drink hardy, tip well, and enjoy the spoils of spring.
