Genuine leather jackets are nice to have and invest in but sometimes it’s also ok to go faux leather or what the fashion industry call, “pleather”. They are more affordable and you’re also helping the eco lifestyle. G by GUESS have a few pleather black jackets that are stylish, functional and under $100 each.

This is a Broadway Hooded Jacket that’s only $99.50. It’s a combination of a comfortable hoodie and a jacket. It also features rib knit waist and hem. There are enough lined pockets to keep the hands warm and cozy.

Remember the Tie or Die contest between two friends/co-worker for the whole month of October that I told you about a few weeks ago? Well, the winner has been announced and it is…

…Ryan Brown. Total score was : Jon Fruman won 8 days while Ryan Brown won 14 days.

Ryan Brown was my pick from the beginning. He was more creative in incorporating other items in his outfits with the neckties. Items like blazers, cardigans, vests, hats, and even umbrellas. Not to mention the humorous accessories and poses which made me laughed out loud every time I visited the site.

Merino Wool Cardigan Vest. The contrast trims are nice twists on the classic vest cardigan vest. $59.50

A different take on stripes print on a sweater is like this one Sean John Mondrian Sweater. The way the colorful stripes were distributed on the sweater is pretty impressive.
The stripes are nicely laid out on one side of the shoulders, then the sleeves, and the diagonal placement on half of the shirt. The v-neck has stripes trim as well. The stripes spruced up the gray color of the sweater, no? Oooops, not gray, it’s grape leaf actually. However you call it, the hues of blue, brown and white made a nice accent. Besides argyle print for Fall sweaters, …read more

Mark Ronson and Gucci joined forces to create new series of boat shoes that would just knock your socks off. I’m a fan of Ronson so I’m familiar with his “style” but he impressed me even more with what he created for Gucci. The shoes feature a style of minimalistic, classic yet with a modern vibe which speaks really well of Ronson’s “trademark”. I am just in awe of all the colors. It makes me smile every time I see them.
