Winterrrrrrr Clearrrrrrrrrrrance!

Friday, January 21st, 2011

“I got an email today from Express about their end of the season sale and when I think fashionable and frugal, I think you…as a curious follower, if you could offer insight into fashion standards or looks that will be safe bets on still being fashionable next winter (let along the rest of this one), it would be perfect for these sort of end of the season sales. Just a thought. Hope all is well (and warmer than here… -9° right now… can’t. get. warm.)” –E.J.

First as always, thanks for reading and thinking we’re frugal; flattery will get you everywhere (including into this blog post). Second, -9?? You need some serious warmth and there are luckily some good winter clearance sales going on right now. We recommend layering–start with a long sleeved shirt or button down, get a sweater or hoodie, grab a blazer over that and top it off with your quintessential winter jacket. If you’re still cold then, you should probably get a job at Columbia or Patagonia and get some free gear… Here are a few affordable collectibles for your long-term winter closet:


All Saints Spark Funnel on sale from $160 to $48!


Levi’s Capital E Navy Quilted Nylon Down Zip Vest on sale from $72 to $48.99


Timberland Earthkeepers Moc Toe Boot on sale from $155 to $99.99


JOHN VARVATOS Hat on sale from $99 to $39


Herring Slim Fit Shirt on sale from $49.50 to $34.65

Remember, these are all sale items and could likely sell out quickly…so pick them up before their gone. If you’re looking for something in particular, e-mail us!

Carhartt and My Dad

Friday, January 14th, 2011

Everyone in the men’s style blogosphere has been recently writing about the new 2011 season of the Carhartt Collection. It has the appearance of a lost era that would make Steve McQueen and James Dean proud. The ads are well done and get the idea across–Carhartt’s will keep you warmer than crap and you’ll look tough too. To me, though, instead of thinking of Carhartt’s being seen in an exclusive fashion LookBook…I remember them growing up on my dad. He’s not Steve McQueen, but he is always warmer than all of us in those Wisconsin winters. So, whoever you are and whatever you need (function or fashion)…consider a new look a Carhartts this year.

If You’re So Famous, Why Aren’t You Dead Yet?

Check out this new UK-based rocker inspired brand: Tuesday Night Band Practice. Although the t-shirts seem a washed out version of Ed Hardy faire, we are totally digging the sweaters and jackets that surely would make Russell Brand blush.
