Note: I apologize for my absense lately. Starting a new job and a computer hard drive crash have been pretty all encompassing recently, but I will try to keep up the frequency from now on.
Last night was the Academy Awards. The night were all of Hollywood asks their stylists to dress them up in [...]

If you’ve read any of my previous posts you know I am not a big proponent of jeans. I’ve already ranted about this before, so I won’t go through it all again, but you can imagine my disappointment with the US Snowboarding teams uniforms.

Designed by Burton, they are relatively plain and straightforward. A plaid [...]

…and most of then aren’t too impressive. But these really struck me as both clever/original and really well illustrated…the art is fantastic. They, and many more, are all available here. I’ve been into the long sleeve T with a graphic T over the top lately…middle school style. It’s a nice way to add some color [...]

If you’re anywhere near the music scene in NY you’re familiar with the absolute explosion of electro-pop bands like MGMT and Passion Pit. I certainly love these bands and while I’m not about to claim that they are ground breaking musicians or song writers, they are catchy and fun to listen and dance to. That [...]

As you could likely guess, I’m not a huge fan of NFL Football. Never been my sport of preference. But alas, Jets fervor has (now, had) taken hold amongst we commoners in NYC. I spent my Sunday over on 19th St. watching the Jets and then the Saints. I’m not here to commentate about the [...]

But most people at least to some degree follow trends, and there’s nothing [...]

There is always something interesting going on in New York City. This past Tuesday I got turned on to the Two Man Gentleman Band, a dandy duo of folksy musicians who happened to be performing at Superfine in DUMBO. These guys are a riot. Not only are they complete Dandies, but they are great musicians [...]

Winter is the season of black and white. Dark nights, snowy mornings, black coats, pasty white skin. All one sees in these dreary months are the extremes, the harsh colors of the winter wardrobe repelling the harsher winds of January. In NYC, it’s even worse. The tall buildings block out what little sun there is [...]

New Years is approaching and so the texts and calls from friends have started to pour in. What color tie should I wear with this shirt? Should I go with the brown or black shoes? Round toe or square? I have been trying to answer all these as they come in, but for those who [...]

I tagged along with a friend who needed to pick up some last minute gifts yesterday and found myself in the newly opened, literally closet sized, NYC outpost of K Chocolatier.

K Chocolatier is the new line of luxury chocolates made by Diane Kron, who has been making chocolate for the stars (Andy Warhol, Jackie [...]
