On the Street……Sharp Cut Coat, NYC
When the temps drop below 70 I start looking for my scarf. However, this young man looks so chic with his shirt and tie sans scarf.

Worlds Collide
Marc Jacobs
Donna KaranSo what did you think of the Marc Jacobs show?
It was great to see that Marc’s collection was full of color and optimism, I’m a little surprised that so many collections have been so dour.
So it makes me think, should a designer’s collection be a reflection the times or an escape?

On the Street……In the Mix, NYC
I love this look.
Tweedy herringbone, navy dots, leather, a touch of fur and a shock of color.
I love that she uses so many elements of design: color, pattern, texture, proportion.
I also love that a man can be just as inspired by this as a woman.

On the Street……Outerwear/Jacket Hybrid, Florence
When I was in Florence for Pitti Uomo I kept seeing this outerwear/jacket hybrid. Cut small like a sportcoat and maybe just slightly shorter than the actual sportcoat, this combo has the potential to creates a great visual mix of patterns and textures.

On the Street….Sartorialist Mix, Paris
I love this mix of old-school Italian (pants and shoes) and a Number 9 coat. To me this conceptually is such a cool mix. Imagine Dries with Kiton, Jil paired with Boglioli, or Lanvin and Borrelli.
