On the Street.....Hard Angles- Soft Edges, Paris




Usually the clothes provide the hard edges and the hair the soft edges. I love how Vika has turned that concept upside down

On the Street.....Checks & Stripes, Milano


I love everything here, the stripe with the check - I'm not sure if it even "goes together" but when it looks this good why even ask.

I also really love the club collar shirt, so often they come off looking costumey but here it looks so natural.

On the Street.....Pleated Pants, Milano


I love seeing pleated pants again , especially when they are worn this elegantly.

On the Street.....That Dress, NYC

On the Street.....Near the Duomo, Milano



I have been up every night till 2 or 3am working on images since I arrived in Milan. As you can imagine I am pretty exhausted but the story that goes with this image is very cute so I will try to write it tonight or on the train to Paris.

On the Street.....Two Cute, NYC

On the Scene.....Mr. Zegna, NYC


I have no idea what type of watch Mr. Zegna is wearing but I think it would be so cool if it was an Ironman running watch.

This is Mr.Zegna first appearance on The Sartorialist but it will hopefully not be his last.

On the Street.....ReMix at Ralph Lauren


I know this photo is over at Men.Style.com but it is easily my favorite look of the season.

I love the formality of the DB with the worn jeans and velvet slippers. The shape of the DB is perfect.

This is a really inspiring image to me, not because I would want to wear the exact same thing - but it makes me think of how I would do it slightly differently and with the clothes I already have in my closet.

I have a navy cashmere single-breasted jacket, similarly worn jeans and brown slip-on loafers - I already own these elements, I just haven't put them together quite this way.

It sounds so simple, but when you have a busy life you often just grab the looks that you already know work for you. Little visual reminders like this help me to mentally reorganize my closet.
