Sunglasses Under…$800??

Wednesday, November 24th, 2010

Esquire, per usual, is recommending beautiful items…but mostly only affordable by beautiful, rich people. Recently they touted Leisure Society sunglasses around the $600-800 price point. For the rest of us normal folk, here are some similar designs for much, much, much, much less:

Usher: DJ Got Us Fallin’ In Love…with those glasses

Thursday, September 16th, 2010

From VEVO

OK, so you might not have the fancy feet that Usher does, but you can dress like him and stand in the corner looking mysterious instead. OR, actually get out there and freaking dance. In any case, here’s an affordable way to do either the next time you’re out on the town:

Nerd Alert: Black Frame Glasses

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

Dear CG:

Thanks for your in-”sights” (haaaaaaa)…below are a few black frame glasses with no prescription so you can look the part but without a-stigma(tism). The chunky rectangle frames are warping into a more retro look lately (e.g. every newscaster from the 50′s and 60′s). These are a couple that are stylish and dignified and not trendy enough that you’ll pitch them in a year:

Affordable Fall Alternatives for Details Magazine

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

If you’re not pouring over men’s magazines, particularly men’s fashion magazines, I can’t blame you. First, most of the looks are absolutely ridiculous, over-the-top, non-real-people outfits AND/OR out of real-people price ranges. (If you can pull off ridiculous outfits and have lots of money…call me or go to Details Magazine…if not, keep reading and know you are normal, average, probably not taking naked pictures with hot models, and that we still love you).

Details Magazine September issue provided a “10 Ways to Modernize Your Wardrobe” spread with some actual decent suggestions, with the exception that they’re all very expensive for an average joe. Here are suggestions very similar to their article but that might fit into your budget this year. Treat yourself to a few new necessity items if your old ones are wearing thin.  ***LKc Style budget: $369.22, Details Magazine Budget: $10,500.00***
