Looking for something to switch up your weekend, or to give you an excuse to relax a little? That’s what the Weekend Reset is for. Each week contributor Tim Johnstone pulls together five things to get your weekend started. Could be something to read or watch, something to eat or listen to, or even something to do. Enjoy the weekend fellas. LISTEN: [Marvin Gaye’s “lost album” is finally available.](  On the heals of his legendary album “What’s Going On,” Marvin Gaye set to work on a follow-up. With recent creative control and a desire to expand his sound, Gaye explored fresh sonics and new collaborations. After working on these recordings for many months, with no explanation offered at the time, Gaye moved on to other projects and never officially released an actual album with these songs. Instead, some were released long after the fact on compilations notwithstanding the release of the title-track single in 1972. Having them all collected here provides a great bit of musical history and a reminder of the power of Gaye’s art. EAT:  [Simple can be all you need when it comes to great pasta.]( [Saveur.com]( A quick and easy pasta dish for weeknights. [This is described as an “elemental Roman dish”]( and it is easy to understand why. There is not much involved besides boiling the noodles, seasoning some pasta water with olive oil and ground pepper and complimenting all of it with some Italian cheese and you are good to go. WATCH: [Oh hell yes!](  I know. I know. Another Jordan Peele recommendation. Two weeks in a row. I can’t help it. I had no idea that CBS would drop the first episode of Peele’s reboot of The Twilight Zone in its entirety on [YouTube]( earlier this week. That is my excuse and its actually a pretty good one. The first two episodes of the series are now available on CBS All Access. Catch the first episode for free. READ: [An essential “how not to” which is relevant today.]( [( William Golding’s [Lord Of The Flies]( is considered one of the most important books of Western literature. A story about shipwrecked children on a deserted island who find their attempts to create order go horribly wrong. Even if you have read this once before, a re-read in this current geo-political climate should bring a new appreciation for Golding’s perspective, writing the novel following the end of World War II. It is exhilarating and frightening. [(photo credit)]( STRETCH: [Make like a tabby and stretch yoself.]( Ever noticed how cats and dogs enjoy a nice, long stretch when they wake up or otherwise get up from a nap? They visibly look like they enjoy it. I have no doubt they do. Because, and you know this if you are a practitioner, it feels really good. Luckily, it is also super good for us and according to fitness experts, [it is as important as exercise and healthy eating.]( And while this is not yoga, it still gives you an opportunity to spend some time in your own headspace. Or…for those of you who can’t bide the thought, there is always a good playlist waiting for you to hit play, that you can stretch out to. Tim Johnstone is [Dappered’s music correspondent]( as well as our resident gatherer of all things interwebs related. He’s currently chasing [his spirit animal.]( He is not a fan of tapioca but he is looking forward to [this](. ff/Dappered?a=4I3Zx4IvqPs:yOtxiskKLoE:yIl2AUoC8zA ff/Dappered?a=4I3Zx4IvqPs:yOtxiskKLoE:qj6IDK7rITs ff/Dappered?a=4I3Zx4IvqPs:yOtxiskKLoE:gIN9vFwOqvQ [Allen Edmonds Anniversary Sale 2019 Top 10](r/Dappered/~3/Kp5MQeLGht0/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email) Posted: 04 Apr 2019 06:36 AM PDT Heads up: Buying via our links may result in us getting a commission. [Here’s why.]( And here’s one: You know that confident feeling you get when wearing your favorite suit? Imagine feeling that way about your finances. [Personal Capital]( tracks your net worth and spending for free, so you know where your savings stand and how your investments are performing. [Get started here.]( [Allen Edmonds Anniversary Sale 2019]( NOTE: Looks like they’ve quietly launched Anniversary Sale pricing one day early. So, it’s on! Allen Edmonds has been around for 97 years. Impressive. And each year they celebrate their birthday with a big fat sale. It’s a “select items” sale. Meaning, some items are on more sale than others. Below you’ll find our picks for the best of the best in terms of price to style ratio. For those who haven’t [signed up for their email list (aka Collector’s Club) yet]( you might be able to stack that first time sign up 15% off code with these savings. Not sure though. Got a tip on something we missed? Send those suggestions into joe@dappered.com. [#1. McAllister Wingtip Oxford – $249]( ($395) All the visual interest of a wingtip, but you still get the conservative toe shape and classy looks of a true oxford. Tons of colors to pick from. Multiple widths to choose from too. All sorts of right. [#2. Cornwallis Dress Oxford – $249]( ($395) Contemporary without being overly flashy. Sexy without being thirsty. The Cornwallis might be one of the best looking shoes Allen Edmonds has ever come out with. Is it as timeless as the McAllister wingtip? Nah. Is it, uh… hawt? Yes it is. Five colors to pick from. 4.5/5 stars after 200+ reviews. Full in person review from us can be found here. [#3. St. John’s Double Monk Strap – $249]( ($395) Wait. These are back? Is it just me or did the St John’s disappear for awhile? Up for the maximum discount during the Anniversary sale. Available in Black, walnut, and the dark chili shown here. Also shown at the top of the post. Full review of these things [can be found right here](. [#4. Fifth Ave. Cap Toe Oxford – $249]( ($395) Conservative, but the quarter-brogue style perforated cap toe spices it up a bit. Like, a little. One of their standards. Can’t go wrong here. [#5. Bartlett Cap Toe Oxford – $355]( ($530) Kinda like the Strand, only upgraded in all the right ways (not that the Strand is any sort of slouch.) From their top of the line Independence collection. Ultra premium leathers, two-tone soles, the works. [#6. Nomad Chukkas – $225]( ($375) Still made in Port Washington, still recraftable, still Goodyear Welted. But the “Nomad” collection is made with comfort in mind. Lightweight shock absorption, removable “lightform” insoles, etc. [#7. Kenilworth Blucher – $249]( ($395) The shoe-iest shoe to ever shoe. And while some might see that essential shoe-ness as boring, others see it as hugely versatile. [Because they are. Review here.]( [#8. Nomad Bucks – $205]( ($345) Bucks are seaonsal. So not as versatile as the rest of the Anniversary Sale picks. But still, you’ll get plenty of wear out of em’ if you commit to living the buck yeah life. [#9. Cordovan Ave. Dress Belt – $185]( ($219) I don’t know who in their right mind spends $185 on a belt. Most of us don’t spend that on shoes. BUT. IF you are that person (and in a right frame of mind,) then this would be the belt I’d recommend. [#10. Dalton Wingtip Dress Boots – $310]( ($445) Out of season! But, around three bills for first quality Daltons isn’t half bad. The Allen Edmonds Anniversary Sale runs clear through April 24th. ff/Dappered?a=Kp5MQeLGht0:G3v-3Ctrly0:yIl2AUoC8zA ff/Dappered?a=Kp5MQeLGht0:G3v-3Ctrly0:qj6IDK7rITs ff/Dappered?a=Kp5MQeLGht0:G3v-3Ctrly0:gIN9vFwOqvQ You are subscribed to email updates from [Dappered Style Mail]().
