Thanks for the comment Frank. To answer your question, the title of the blog came about last summer. I spent way too much money on a pair of tan suede shoes from Cole Haan (pictured in the header banner of this site.) I loved them. They were super lightweight and cool on hot days, and [...]

I’ve been having this thought lately….that I feel like I have no influence on the physical world anymore. I get up, stumble around in my apartment getting ready for the day, walk downstairs and out into the street. I wait for the bus, or I wait for the train, or I walk somewhere. Enter a [...]

Well, the warm weather has begun teasing we New Yorkers about the coming Spring, and with these warm mornings and bright sunny afternoons comes the shedding of winter mentality and layers. I refuse to wear another warm coat. If I freeze so be it, I am willing it to be warm out. Winter is almost [...]

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.

This past summer I had the realization that we are all slaves to trends.

The tall buildings block out what little sun there is [...]

I was surfing around some websites for indoor soccer shoes for the upcoming Zog Winter League, and I came across this new partnership on the PUMA website. I understand and appreciate McQueen’s long history of success and inspirational work in fashion, but I just don’t get this new ‘Crane vs. Tiger’ thing.

The underlying concept [...]

Style is not all about clothes but also about who and what you fill your life with. It’s a full time committment, but something that becomes second nature the more you aware you are of yourself and the world around you.

I’d like to talk about two facets of a stylish life and how the clothes [...]

I was discussing the ‘no-belt’ look with a friend yesterday, and he was skeptical about it. I am 100% pro ‘no-belt.’ As a general rule, I think that just wearing a button down shirt tucked into pants never looks right. On models, they tailor the shirts to be skin tight and can prepare each shot [...]
