Fashionable Friday: CPUs
One of my favorite books is William Gibson’s Pattern Recognition. The main character Cayce Pollard has a very distinct style and her clothing is described in the books as CPUs — Cayce Pollard Units.

There is, of course, a healthy secondary market in selling particularly rare and unusual items like today’s inspiration, the Special Edition Star Wars Half Marathon Satchel from…
