Shorts
The summer is in full effect and, though I’ve never been one for wearing shorts (unless you count jorts), I bought a pair last weekend and am pretty happy with.
Simple solid colors are always a safe bet but I went with the plaid.

The Ritual Triple S
Okay, I was going to feature Ritual on my show for the next cycle of hookups, but it doesn’t look like there will be a next cycle at this point. The product I was the most excited about was “Nature Calls.” The following is the explanation given at Ritual’s website: “Stick to the ritual. Just two drops of Nature Calls in your toilet prior to doing your business...

ITSNONAME Element Rings
What more could you ask for than a ring that’s branded by the periodic symbol that it is made from. The brands name is ITSNONAME, which is awesome in itself, and the only bit of information about the company comes from their very discrete “about INN” button on the webpage. “ITSNONAME is the office of Brooklyn-based (by way of Minneapolis) husband-and-wife, aspiring...

All Dressed Up & No Place To Go.
AllDressedUp has only been around since 2005, but founder Tina Tan-Leo has a seasoned past having worked in the fashion industry for over 30 years. Her experience definitely shows in this new venture and I will certainly be keeping my eye on alldressedup’s future collections. The Spring/Summer line is inspired by the Silk Route, which is a series of ancient trade routes connecting East...
YSL Sneaks

Summer Dreamin
If you’re looking for a complete summer look that can be pulled off for super cheap, here are my picks. First you get a single tee shirt or v neck, preferably white but any solid color would work fine. Then you get that perfect pair of jeans you’ve had for years but have a stain on the leg or a hole in the knee, and you cut them off just above the knee, this is called the Jort..or...

I Heart Guy Baxter
If you were to picture a beautiful couple, sitting in their studio, listening to vinyl, and designing clothes together, you’d be picturing Turya & Braxton Nations. Before falling in love with Guy Baxter, I’d always admired Turya’s personal style. We met while she was sourcing fabric for Baxter’s very first line and I’ve been a fan ever since. The designs...
Boat Shoes
I know it’s raining in Seattle and snowing in Chicago, but in Los Angeles it’s as sunny as it gets, and whenever the hot days of Spring & Summer roll around that means it’s time to break out the boat shoes and hit the High Seas. I always have a pair of my favorite Sperry Mocs on hand, but this year I think I’ll be wearing a simple lace up boat sneaker. Sperry...

Grumpy Young Men
For many years I’ve been under torment regarding my “old man style,” but it seems that all that might be changing… Or at least there will be a lot more people who get told they dress like Mr. Rogers. It seems as though Cardigans are coming at the world in an explosive way, so head over to your grand-pops house and sneak away with some of his old suede vested cardigans...
Hot House Florals
Stella McCartney’s bold, water color inspired florals are a bright contrast to Falls’ muted color pallette, and I think I’m in love. Many designers are featuring florals for spring, but I’ve yet to see a designer who’s Hot House prints capture the image and inspiration of the season in the way that these pieces do.

GET SOME.....GET SOME!
The other day I purchased a new favorite jacket. It’s an old army green military jacket with all the zippers and pockets. It quickly became my new favorite piece of clothing. It works perfectly over plain tee shirts or button downs. Then last night Lauren and I stopped at the newsstand after our bike ride and were looking through the magazines, and sure enough it looks as though these are...

Gladiators are back from the past...again.
Gladiator sandals are my newest must have piece of footwear for Spring. A few years ago they very briefly showed up, only to be swept under the rug and replaced by something else (probably those cheesy Chinese Beaded Mesh Slippers). The shoes seem to be catching on amongst the stylish and fashionable, even though we’ve seen them in past seasons. I think they are a perfect accessory for...
Liberty Of London Scarves
Liberty Of London is a line founded by a man named Arthur Liberty in 1876. Every time I visit their site or see the line somewhere I’m drawn to their colorful and almost lifelike prints. The scarves by Liberty Of London are heaven sent. I was going to write something surrounding the history of the brand but decided to quote the company’s website because I think they put it perfectly:...

You Must Create
YMC created a spring/summer collection inspired by an early 70s british subculture. They were called Suedeheads and are said to be an offshoot of the skinheads of the United States. Some of our favorite pieces include the sleeveless cardigan, the hat, and the shoes. Besides having some stellar clothes, the You Must Create website is one of the most badness sites I’ve seen in a long time....

Designed by Muccia Prada, Miu Miu is a truly incredible label and it’s too bad that they will no longer be making menswear, because seriously look at the shorts, the boots, and the socks with sandals!

Folk & Shofolk
About a year ago I found a shoemaking company called Shofolk that made some of the most origianl and lovely footwear for Men & Women. After looking into the brand I found out that they also have a Men’s apparel line that is equally awesome. After starting a sales agency with his sister (Maggie) Cathal McAteer branched out to make Folk. The Company’s existence is based on the idea...
