Street Smarts: Portland Fashion Week

Friday, October 15th, 2010

Here’s Jake @ Portland Fashion Week 2010. He’s not trying to hard to be fashion, he’s just trying to be fashionably comfortable…and he’s doing a great job.

Street Smarts: Sunflower Wedding in SW Portland

Thursday, September 9th, 2010

This is Steve. He was in a wedding this weekend. I loved the crispness of the black tux against the bright sunflower. I also dig the shawl lapel.

Don’t forget that LKc Style coordinates men’s wedding attire for grooms and groomsmen all over the US! E-mail laura.knepper@lkcstyle.com if you are looking for a special wedding wardrobe!

Street Smarts: A Belt A Day Keeps The Pants Up Always

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

This is Zachary. He’s such a bad ass with crazy hair to boot. Check out that belt too…

 

Street Smarts: Euro Suit in an Alley

Saturday, April 24th, 2010

This is Scott. He seemed reserved when I met him, but his suit does the talking, I guess. He was in the alley taking a break behind the art gallery when I ran into him. While LKc doesn’t condone smoking, it does condone being in smoking hot suit.

Better Late than never…Vancouver Olympics 2010

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

I am so fortunate to have attended the winter olympics this year in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It’s a beautiful countryside with a unique urban pocket. The highlight was seeing Lindsay Vonn win a gold medal at Whistler Mountain, but only seconded by the style of those weeks: FLAGS!

And some other things of interest:

Street Smarts: Retail

Friday, February 12th, 2010

Here’s a friendly employee at Crate & Barrel looking totally put together. If you work in retail, even if you have to wear a uniform to work, make sure you are clean with your shirt neatly tucked in and ready to help your customers. Especially if you work on commission, your image will affect your bottom line. Poll: if you work in retail would you rather wear a uniform or not and why?

Street Smarts: Townie Bar meets Shiny Shoes

Tuesday, January 5th, 2010

2009.12.20_SamMacon

Rock star turned advertising genius, Sam has really made this ensemble his own style. He courageously put together different patterns and colors. He fits in at this townie bar, but could pop into a downtown lounge in the same night. Most notably, check out how well everything fits–not too big and sloppy, not too tight to see his junk (we love you Sam, but we don’t want to see your junk).

Street Smarts: Northwest + Hats

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

I found myself in the Northwest again recently and noticed the (necessary) love affair with these guys and their hats.  Hats can be an awesome addition to most outfits if appropriately matched. Consider these two Oregonians and their very different but stylish looks with hats:

2009.11.14_BlazeInPortlandBlaze in front of a cozy fire. Great outfit for day or night.

Nice crisp shirt w/ the sleeves rolled up just right.

2009.11.13_DucksGameGearing up for the game in something a little more casual.

But notice how the brown in the hat coordinates with the brown in the shirt.

Street Smarts: Black Layers

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

Here’s RJ bundled up for the Midwest cold in all black except for that awesome V-line of black-and-white-striped hoodie sweatshirt. Stay warm, LKc-ers!
