American Idol, Scotty McCreery, and Rockin Pants

Wednesday, June 15th, 2011

You wanted to know…so we’re telling you. What are those jeans that American Idol winner Scotty McCreery has been wearing??? They are H.A-67′s. The brand prides itself on having a “unique mix of the old-new fashion spirit. The style details and washes will remind you of the vintage period, while the fit keeps the sexy silhouettes of today.” Well, Rock On Scotty. At $150 a pop, these are jeans you should wear the crap out of, but still a competitve price with a more unique look.

Come Hell…or High Water

Friday, May 13th, 2011

What do you you think of rolling up your pant legs? Do you do it ever? If so when and how? We think this is a difficult look to pull off for most men because it takes a certain kind of pant–so unless you’ve been praying to the Skinny Jeans God lately, my guess is this isn’t something you’re trying yet. But, maybe it’s something you could try to stand out, just a little bit?? Or perhaps you would never be caught dead….

What do you think???

Boy Bands, Nick Carter and Girls Clothes

Monday, August 30th, 2010

A dear friend of LKc’s is still in love with the Backstreet Boys…and we love her for staying true to her heart. BsB member Nick Carter turned 30 this year whilst out on the BsB reunion tour…a great milestone and he looks pretty good and fit for his age. BUT, what’s the deal with these jeans? I think I took this same picture when I was in China a few years ago:

LKc can’t condone wearing of such women’s clothing on (older) men…at least when it’s not supposed to be on purpose (Eddie Izzard, you’re in the clear).

Esquire Magazine Explains How To Wear Corduroy

Monday, August 23rd, 2010

Esquire Magazine handed out a smidge of info on corduroy for this Fall. LKc finds corduroy to be worn best casually, but can sometimes be dressed up if done appropriately. The best things to take away are
1. the finer the ribs (called wales) the dressier the corduroy, and
2. a thin man can wear fatter ribs and a larger man should wear finer ribs–you wouldn’t want to look like a big corduroy clown, now would you? The corduroys featured in Esquire were $220…here are some much more affordable alternatives all under $50:


GAP Straight Fit Corduroy Pants $49.50 (We like “Shark”, but all the colors here are nice)


Mossimo Corduroy Pant $24.99


BDG Corduroy Pant in Navy $39
