WIAWT


I'm beginning to notice my blazers aren't getting enough attention, they've just been hanging in my closet & waiting patiently for their chance to make contact with the outside world.  Today I decided to go for a look that has a more preppy/classic feel and this cotton navy blazer fit the bill perfectly!  I kept my ensemble solid with a white oxford button-up and added a few punches of color with a neon red watch and striped socks.  I hope you guys are diggin' my look...

StreeT ShoTz~

So I was in a rush earlier today when I spotted this dude in the subway station.  I was walking behind him and, even from a distance, I couldn't help but notice two things about him- 1: he was extremely tall (about 6'2") and 2: his style was bold but somehow tamed at the same time.  The weather in Boston is abnormally warm today considering that its January, and it seems that such weather always gives New England's fashionistas & fashionistos a reason to break out their more fashion-forward duds even if its just for one day.  This fella's look is definitely on the high fashion end of the sartorial spectrum, however the different pieces he incorporates into his look can be seperated and worn in many different ways.  Check him out...

                                  
     Younger guys are learning the secret of the leather jacket which their dads & uncles have known for years, and that is: it instantly makes you look cooler and feel invincible (Fonzie-esque walk not necessary)             
                  

       
His skinny jeans automatically give his look a cool, hipster feel


This beaded tribal-inspired necklace with it's bold gold medallion is definitely a statement
                piece which can be worn simply with a plain white tee or graphic tee


His blond high-top fade & bowler hat are channelling early '80s fashion and I'm diggin' it!


Leather spats over combat boots with silver toe?? This dude was pulling out ALL the stops
unapologetically!
