a-men for fashion.

mens fashion is a hard thing to pin-point. there is so many different styles different guys try to portray, but i know one thing for sure. if i was a dude i would be dressing like the sexy british and aussies with just a dash of kanye west's swagger. they got their ish together down under.


RULE NUMERO UNO: PLEASE BURN EVERYTHING & ANYTHING ED HARDY HAS EVER CREATED.


i always think people look best when they look like they just rolled out of bed and through something together. a little rough around the edges, maybe doesn't match perfectly, but it totally works. for guys. i think there's a perfect combination somewhere between urban hipster, skater and hip-hop. but thats just me.. just anything beats basketball shorts & a wife-beater. that is NOT hot. or considered an "outfit".



some random men who i think did or currently do have AM-AZING inspirational style?

obviously, pharrell williams. he is just the man. period. homeboy always manages
to put a fun-spin on whatever it is that he's wearing a pair up funky hip-hop street wear with
whatever is currently the hottest fashion trend. and most importantly, he always looks sexy as hell while doing it. i like to think of pharrell as one of the posterboys for revamping the rayban trend. he also jump-started the whole flannel fad and brought it back from lumberjack to being a staple of any fashionisto's closet. mmm mmm mm i love me some pharrell.

another close second is hip-hop mogul kanye west. although he is most prominently known for his talent and work with music; kanye has also made a positive last impression on fashion. perhaps the motive for his influential mark on menswear comes from his undying love for the sexy ladies surrounding the industry. west was once engaged to both model & designer alexis phifer who he credits for helping to create his fierce "pop-lux" style.
"everything about me is pop & luxury," west says.
after splitting from phifer kanye has since moved on to yet another model, who has believe it or not an even more wild, out there personal style.. amber rose!
kanye is currently working as a fashion intern at GAP and is in talks to be creating his own line.



what about some old school legends who have left a lasting impression for their epic signature fashions?

my dad will be happy about this one...
one of his all time favorites: frank sinatra.
talk about a classy guy! rockin' that fedora, skinny tie and blazer.
fashion perfection at its finest.

a synonym for deliciously, sexy style? umm... james dean.
talk about a bonafide badass.
from his raybans, perfectly tasseled hair, leather jackets
to his fitted tees and peacoats, mister dean always looked a-okay in my book.
