What got you poised for menswear innovation?
I grew up around fashion, my family owned a small clothing botique in Kansas City, MO for a number of years. But it wasn’t until I found my true identity sometime in my time in Chicago, IL. I am a bigger guy, but that was not going to hold me back from being innovative with my ever changing style. Clothes don’t make the man, but they sure do help the man.
Why do you think neckwear is so important and give us some examples?
Neckwear is not needed at all times, but when an occasion calls for something more classy a tie or bow tie is the easiest way to get to where you need to be. And I think Life calls for us to be more classy more often times than not!
What gave you the idea of using neckties as bowties?! Tell us about another steezy innovative thing you’re doing with your clothes!
Bowties are awesome, but often times very expensive. I was looking at my necktie collection and thinking to my self there must be a way… It took some time and a lot of effort annnnd a lot of internet searches. Once I figured it out, I knew I had a beautiful addition to my wardrobe. Neckties turn in to beautiful bowties and are double the size of a regular bowtie once tied. The size also brings a great deal of attention to me and my entire outfit form both men and women alike.
What’s your favorite thing this year?
Favorite thing this year is the new trend of glasses actually. Some people need them so they are being more stylish. Some people have perfect vision but want to add a smarter look so they also take up wearing glasses.
What do you think is most important about menswear and why?
Good Jeans. Jeans don’t have to be expensive, but they have to be well made, and stylish, My favorite jeans are made by LRG ($70 bucks) and True Religions ($180 bucks). The best part about Jeans… you can wear them many times before washing them!
What do you splurge on and what items do you thrift and why?
I splurge on on Kicks! I love Shoes! My mom always told me to keep clean shoes that never look too worn. A woman can tell a lot about a man by the shoes he wears. I’m thrifti on clothing… a favorite web site of mine is PKLNDR.COM they have some great prices and there are many elcletic brand names on sale, and they change everyday!

Where do you get your inspiration??
I am inspired by the world around me. I love seeing a plethora of styles and making a hybrid of observed styles. A lot of people tell me that I inspire them, and that motivates me to stay fresh, daper, and for a lock of better words Fly Errr
