SHOP Deadly Ponies: Rectangle Zipper Clutch, $289

Kirby Marzec, Managing Editor — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 18:20:51 +0000

I’ve been in the market for a new bag for a while now, and I think Deadly Ponies may have finally piqued my interest! This 100% leather rectangle zipper clutch can be simply carried by hand or unzipped to fit over one’s shoulder. The leather and gold zippers might make this clutch a trendy piece, but the rectangular shape it takes fitted over the shoulder should be enough reason to click “Buy Now.”

SHOP: Horace Black Lightening Bolt Long Tee; $110

Corey Moran, Mens Editor — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 20:43:52 +0000

Every New Yorker’s favorite boutique, Oak nyc, is carrying this amazing new tee from Horace. We saw a similar design from the brand this past Summer, but they decided to make it a bit more Fall accessible by making it a long tee. I love the cut, design, everything about it!

SHOP: Oak Fall/Winter 2009 Footwear Collection

Corey Moran, Mens Editor — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 18:06:29 +0000

If you don’t have at least one pair of boots for this winter (I think I’m on my fifth pair) here is your chance to make up for lost time. Oak has produced some of the best looking footwear for the Fall/Winter season, and some of the most affordable too. All three of the styles featured here range from $220-$250. Not bad for something you’ll have for a long long time.Did I mention that the entire Oak collection is worth taking a good look at as well? I think some of their in house productions are the best to be honest. I love their denim!

SHOP: Bess x Converse At Aloha Rag

Corey Moran, Mens Editor — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 17:40:15 +0000

Bess is really good at taking your every common day product, adding some well planned out studs, and making it totally badass. I’ve never been a big Converse guy (they really hurt my feet), but I would totally rock these.

SHOP: Levi’s x Obey

Corey Moran, Mens Editor — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 17:25:01 +0000

Shepard Fairey (the man behind Obey), teamed up with Levi’s to do a small capsule collection. I love the jacket above, and unlike a bunch of the ridiculous capsule collections out there, this isn’t way overpriced. The jackets are around $150, tees $30 and the jeans are at $125. Affordable and definitely high quality!

SHOP: Robert Geller x Levi’s at Bloomingdale’s

Corey Moran, Mens Editor — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 16:27:50 +0000

Robert Geller launched his collaboration line with Levi’s at Bloomingdale’s, and while I absolutely love the collection, the price tag is ridiculous. While I can appreciate what Levi’s is trying to do with their brand, you can’t go out and expect people to pay $95 for a Levi’s tee shirt? I’m a bit upset by this in case you can’t tell.

SHOP Oak: Black Fur Panel Sleeveless Wrap, $320

Kirby Marzec, Managing Editor — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 19:00:42 +0000

I’ve been a sucker for vests and fur recently, so it goes without saying that Oak’s black fur panel sleeveless wrap has the best of both worlds. I love how the shearling dresses up this slouchy and tattered cotton wrap, making it an easy staple for both dressy and casual looks.

SHOP Rachel Comey: Fuji Ninja Bootie, $380

Kirby Marzec, Managing Editor — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 20:28:01 +0000

The oxford trend is getting a bit exhausted, but there’s no denying that we’re still on the hunt for an androgynous pair of flat shoes to heighten our wardrobes. These textured leather, Rachel Comey oxford-style shoes are a clever alternative to the preppy dress shoe, catering to the sleeker crowd. I’m not one to appreciate elastic inserts in/on my shoes, but the elastic side detailing is a distinguishable feature and an appreciated one at that!
