Happy Toking and remember to dress is human, to smoke divine.

1. Quit this: Birkenstocks A mandal by any other name would look as bad.

Hit this: Espadrilles An Hermès espadrille may not be ideal for Ultimate Frisbee in the quad, but it's more than appropriate for quick munchie runs.

2. Quit this: Tie-Dye Psychedelia  gave us many things, none of them as enduring or as tacky as tie-dye.

Hit this: Bold prints Pucci prints are as trippy as they come so you can easily get lost staring into them for hours on end.

3. Quit this: Hemp A durable and versatile fabric, there are more chic ways to green your wardrobe, especially without using your green.

Hit this: Organic fabrics If you're all about sustainability and that crap, H&M's Conscious Collection is easy on the environment and on your wallet.

4. Quit this: Puka shell necklaces Ah, the puka shell necklace, or as I like to think of it, shorthand for letting everyone know you're a complete tool.

Hit this: Statement jewelry A statement necklace says something completely different, like "I'm high as a kite right now and I'm going to dress like it."

5. Quit this: Ponchos If you've been indulging a little too much in the late night Taco Bell, then by all means, drape an unflattering carpet over yourself.

Hit this: Capes However, a cape like this Alexander McQueen number is a fashionable alternative to the poncho but on the other hand, so is anything else.

6. Quit this: Board shorts Board shorts are appropriate on only one occasion, and that is on a surf board. Any other time is just an insult to surfers everywhere.

Hit this: Suit shorts Tom Ford doesn't think men should wear shorts at all, but Thom Browne doesn't expect you to play hacky sack in a full-on pant during those hot summer months.

7. Quit this: Hawaiian shirts Hawaiian shirts are appropriate on only one occasion, and that is on Charlie Sheen. Any other time is just an insult to Charlie Sheen...which is kind of all right.

Hit this: Paisley shirts Odds are you won't need much to cheer you up this 420, but paisley, like this Michael Kors top, can add a dash of curlicued sunshine to anyone's day.

8. Quit this: Baggy jeans "So okay, I don't want to be a traitor to my generation and all but I don't get how guys dress today. I mean, come on, it looks like they just fell out of bed and put on some baggy pants and take their greasy hair - ew - and cover it up with a backwards cap and like, we're expected to swoon? I don't think so." -- Cher Horowitz

Hit this: Harem pants A harem pant gives you the same freeballin' feeling as a pair of slouchy Levi's hanging off your upper thighs and -- bonus points -- the drop-crotch acts as a great weed table if nothing else is around.

9. Quit this: American Eagle For most of us, middle school is over and so is the Eagle.

Hit this: American Apparel Going from the Eagle to the Apparel, though, is not so much a show of growth so much as a show of wanting to get laid. But even stoners need to slut it up sometimes.

10. Quit this: Beanies A beanie is like the stoner equivalent of the little black dress. And though I would deign to ask any pothead worth his or her reefer to abandon their LBD...

Hit this: Newsboys A newsboy cap adds a certain air of jauntiness and charm. I mean, who would you rather get high with, beanie boy or Brad Pitt? Though the beanie guy looks baked as all get out.

If you have any questions/comments about this post, the knock off Jil Sander shorts I’m wearing or anything mens style: tweet me @mcarthurjoseph

The Hamptons is going to be swarming with the rich and fabulous. It is important that you always look posh and put together even if you’re getting plastered in the middle of the day. I recommend this Ben Minkoff weekender. It’s simple, durable, and can hold a champagne bottle or two. (And yes I know from experience.) One of your essentials should include a Ralph Lauren polo. (The staple of the prep wardrobe) An Orlebar Brown bathing suit is the way to go shorts wise. (Even if you’re not swimming you can wear these as shorts all day and look stylish.) Finally you’ll need a pair of  Sperry boat shoes. (Duh!) Don’t forget to bring a blazer just in case and daddy’s credit card.

The Jersey Shore is always a hot spot during the summer months and Memorial Day weekend is probably one of the craziest times it gets. As a Jersey native I have to say that  people were going to down the shore (As we Jerseyans put it) before Snooki and The Situation took over with a camera crew. That being said a Quiksilver duffle is what you want to pack. It can take a beating and be fulled to over capacity with all your weekend needs. While you’re at the beach or walking on the boardwalk these American Eagle shorts have both fashion and function without calling negative attention to whoever is wearing them. Speaking of the boardwalk you can stroll comfortably down it in these Ugg sandals. Lastly you’ll need something nice to impress at the club and an Armani Exchange dress shirt will do the trick. Just make sure you’re tan and party ready.

Fire Island is a major gay destination on the East Coast if you didn’t know. The island is known for it’s nonstop parties and debauchery. If you go this Rag & Bone bag says “I’m here, I’m queer, & I have taste: Get Used To It!”  I recommend packing light since it seems that many of the people running around are not in that much clothes. That’s why this Baskit trunk is totally appropriate. There are a lot of outdoor activities so go for a pack of American Apparel tanks so you have something light and simple that can transition from day to night. Finally I recommend these GAP flip flops:they’re inexpensive, versatile and perfect for a beach day. Remember to leave your heavy layers and inhibitions behind.

Beginning yesterday, limited-edition, AE-designed “Help Haiti Heal” T-shirts are being  sold in more than 900 American Eagle Outfitters stores throughout the U.S., and worldwide at www.ae.com/haiti.  The T-shirts were made in Haiti, by Haitians, to mark the first anniversary of the earthquake and raise awareness about the continuing need to help Haiti heal.  The entire purchase price of US $15.50 will be donated to Concern Worldwide’s education program in Haiti, with the potential to raise as much as US $1 million.

The proceeds raised from the sale of the Help Haiti Heal t-shirts will:  rebuild and repair two schools that were destroyed during the earthquake, provide 1,000 earthquake-affected children with access to primary education, equip the two schools with classroom furniture (desks, chairs),  install clean water systems, latrines and sanitation at the two schools and ensure that the most vulnerable children in the communities receive a primary education.

This is a really great cause because Haiti has not fully recovered from the tragedy that happened almost a year ago and it is fantastic that brands like American Eagle are helping to support and raise awareness about Haiti even after most people have forgotten about it.

You can purchase one of these shirts from AE.com

AE will start a great back-to-school promotion to ensure that customers walk away with two college campus essentials: denim and a new cell phone. Beginning July 21st through August 3rd, customers who try on a pair of AE denim will receive a free smartphone after instant discount with a two-year service plan and also receive a $25 AE Money Card, redeemable both in store and online.

The simple boot-cut denim jean is the pair that anyone can feel good about buying. It’s silhouette compliments the tall, short, curvy, and thin– and it’s always in style.

Here are three selections that you can find for a good price if spending big money on a pair of jeans isn’t your style:

American Eagle- www.ae.com – $34.95

The Gap- www.gap.com – $69.50

Charlotte Russe- www.charlotterusse.com -$32.99

Is it surprising to say that I have found myself staring in the face of disappointment once again? MTV has managed to ruin another underground celeb with their latest acqusition of Alexa Chung for the show It’s On With Alexa Chung. I’ve watched the show for the past three days, and while I remained optimistic for the first few episodes out of my pure love for the Brit, I am willing to fess up and say that it really isn’t a good show. While Miss Chung has managed to keep her style top notch, her awkwardness on camera really shines through.

I think the saddest part of the whole thing is that it is quite obvious that no one in the crowd has any idea who she is. There is a constant feeling that is easily relateable to that of an awkward silence. Her whitty English quips and comedy is often beyond the brain capacity of the puberty ridden teens that fill the bleacher style seats in their American Eagle, super boot cut, faded denim and their A&F hoodies.

While I’m on the topic of the jokes she is very poor at delievering, she clealry has the worst writers in television. It’s bad when you can tell that the host of the show doesn’t even think the jokes are funny. The way she painstakingly drudges through each joke is almost unbearable. It’s about time they fire all those lame high school interns and get some quality writing for the show (I think the genius minds behind Fashion Indie could do the trick…and we’re cheap!).

While the daily sight of Alexa Chung’s beauty gives me something to look forward to, and her guests aren’t half bad, I will say they need to do some damage control before this spirals beyond salvation. I recommend she keeps her Topshop name drops on the down low too! Us fashion folks don’t need to be stiff arming MTV douche bags in the store to get to the new collections that Topshop keeps conveniently tucked away in the back corner of the store.
