NOW YOU KNOW* IT’S JUST DANDY!

August 18, 2011 in NOW YOU KNOW

It looks like menswear is taking a different approach this upcoming season.  With a new focus on decades past Banana Republic and Ralph Lauren’s purple label have both dived into the more tailored look for the fall.   Banana Republic’s new ad campaign for their Mad Men collection (rather affordable pricing might I add) can be seen all over.  I have no complaints about these truly dapper men.

Ralph Lauren’s Purple Label, which is on the more pricier side is channeling The Great Gatsby.

HAUTENESS* ANDROGYNY

“Look at me. Do you hear that? Of course you don’t. Swagger has no sound.” – The Old Spice Guy

I’m seeing it all over the place. Women in suits.  Where’s yours? I’m about to get mine.

For some reason I think it would be perfect wedding attendee attire.  I only question if I can get away with rocking a suit that’s white.  Aren’t only brides suppose to wear white on that day?  Can I get a pass because it’s a pants-suit?

Lemme kno’…

SUIT-UP* OBEY

May 18, 2011 in SUIT UP

I’m not fully sure why I’m drawn to OBEY.  Whenever I see their hats on the street or in stores I become more and more drawn to the brand.  Founded by Shepard Fairey, this hybrid brand combines his passion for music, art and the street skate scene to create laid back gear for both men and women.

Dudes, I think you should try this one out-DK

“Hell nah hoe you know dey Polo” (Trick Daddy voice)

Boys I found these cute sneakers at Marshalls the other day.  Now I know it’s hard to find good deals for men so I figured I’d put you on.  They’re a clean sneaker to rock during the summer.

Enjoy

MILANO THUNDER X D&G

February 28, 2011 in NOW YOU KNOW

Women you can’t escape it…SPORTS

Men you can’t escape it either…FASHION

With Sports Center on fire as of late with all the latest trades Melo signed, Felton being dropped and Bush… well he was just dropped (to open up some more team money) it would only make sense for two of the largest money-making industries to connect.

Designers Domenica Dolce and Stefano Gabbana (Dolce & Gabbana), no strangers to the draw of sports, have designed the uniforms for the AC Milan soccer team and well as a few others.
