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

Street Smarts: A Belt A Day Keeps The Pants Up Always
Tuesday, April 27th, 2010Street Smarts: Euro Suit in an Alley
Saturday, April 24th, 2010This 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, 2010I 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:
Lindsay Vonn, up close and personal
Street Smarts: Retail
Friday, February 12th, 2010Here’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
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, 2009I 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:
Blaze in front of a cozy fire. Great outfit for day or night.
Nice crisp shirt w/ the sleeves rolled up just right.
Gearing 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, 2009Here’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!
Street Smarts: Wedding Blues (and Grays)
Tuesday, October 6th, 2009Here’s Steven at a wedding I recently attended looking artfully disheveled in blues and grays after a full night of dancing …especially notice how he brought all the colors together in the tie.
Street Smarts: Birthday Suit
Wednesday, September 9th, 2009
Here’s Geyer dressed up for his birthday and about to grab some boots of beer for his birthday @ the Chicago Brauhaus in Lincoln Square. He’s smartly dressed in a hipster-meets-prep uniform. Great use of monochromatics (using different shades of the same color–in this case blue–to create depth) w/ a pop of yellow. The brown shoes make it old school casual and tie in the glasses. This is a great weekday casual event outfit. Happy Birthday Geyer!
