Mint and peas, and a little bit of carrot: the colors Im crushing on are not quite jewel-toned, not quite neon, but are darned delectable.pea green suede New Balance ML574 sneakers (c/o ASOS), mint g...
I like the idea of the smaller-than-A4 portfolio bag, or, dare I say, the clutch, on men. It would look as handsome with a dark suit to lunch as it would be with a tailored coat and sneakers running ...

Ive been pretty lean on the DIY posts as of late, and let me tell you why. One can only cut up and metallicize so many shorts and paint-splatter so many shoes before it just gets old; I cant sew, and...
The perfect black coat did not come to me perfect, and it is highly likely that it wont for you either. Right after it had arrived at my apartment, I wrote down my own fit notes, compared them with w...

Ever the dress-shoe-as-sneakers person, I thought Id turn the tables this holiday season and wear something colorful, skater-esque, and decidedly casual on Christmas day. I dug up a pair of Vans Old ...

Back in Boston for three days, I thought Id revisit old stomping grounds and old sartorial habits. When the temperature drops to the thirties, Fauxji Yamamoto is my go-to look. A long oversize black ...
Im at my uncles in Boston for a quick holiday---the one who lives at the Ritz, acts more like a Gen-Yer than a baby boomer, flies to China for medical missions, the one who happens to have a pair of ...
I paid a visit to Hisham Oumlils studio last weekend and was pleasantly surprised by what I found. Oumlil, who had started his line in the fall of 2006, had been relatively under the radar since, wit...

I have been known to wear dress shoes to just about any occasion, but there is a time and place for sneakers: long walks of food guilt, volunteering for Habitat for Humanity, the morning after. Thoug...
An oldie but goodie, this editorial styled by Nicola Formichetti for the very first issue of Vogue Hommes Japan has always been an inspiration for the way I dress. People underestimate the natural be...
