    Phoenicia Association Brings Art And Style To Phoenix

    There's a new kid on the block in Phoenix! Phoenicia Association, a well-cultivated men's store and gallery space, opened earlier this month. Inside the seemingly abandoned brick building holds some of coolest, hard to find duds in the area. Started by friends Jeff Mann and Kyle Simone (both avid street fashion connoisseurs and patrons of the arts) were looking to cultivate a new way of thinking about and looking at art and design in the Phoenix metropolitan area. The shop is split into two sections: one that sells hard to find men's clothing labels April77, Wrath Arcane, Hixsept, and 3Sixteen, and the other that houses a gallery with monthly rotating artists. If you're in the area, make sure not to miss the opening parties for the new gallery shows that feature local artists, musicians and DJs! Check them out at www.wearephoenicia.com.

    Father's Day is pretty much here and if you haven't gotten your dad a gift yet, you better get on it quick! Men in general are notoriously hard to shop for, and fathers are the hardest of the bunch to find a great gift to give. In an effort to solve this dilemma for ourselves, we've researched and written about numerous gift ideas and suggestions. Here is one more attempt to help find you that perfect Father's Day gift that is not a tie and that dad will love! If your father already seems to have everything, then get him something useful but completely superfluous! He probably has a couple of drugstore razors in his medicine cabinet. Why not get him a beautiful silver or wood finish shave set? I'm sure he already has a wallet, or maybe a money-clip, but perhaps a new soft Italian leather wallet will look even nicer! Women feel entitled to numerous pampering procedures, but men deserve the prince(ss) treatment from time to time too! Maybe a spa and massage session will help lift the stress off his shoulders... or perhaps he's a fashionable father and a great piece of statement jewelry is all he needs to add a little pep in his step! And what makes these luxe gifts even better is that they're from you, so check out the slideshow for some more great gift ideas to spoil your dad!

    Grad Gifts For Guys

    That-a-boy. From hitting his first T-ball to learning to drive, the young man in your life has made you proud with every accomplishment he's scored. For the guy grad who's earned his diploma, a gift is certainly in order. It'd be great if the gift prepared him for the adult world, but boys will be boys, and a part of that will live in him forever. Unlike the girls, the memories will stay bottled up inside, so a gentleman graduate's gifts will be more about celebrating than reflecting -- he's on to conquer the world, after all. Sure, he'll always appreciate a card and a check -- well, we all know the card is just a fancy envelope for the check he'll be expecting under the fold -- but a gift with thought will let him know just how much you admire him for sticking it through, as well as how much you believe in him for following his dreams. Equip him well with one of these savvy tributes to your talented scholar's success from a slideshow that'll blow his mind -- and blow off some of the steam that built up in his stint as a hard-working student!

    Who's Your Favorite Funny Guy With A Serious Sense Of Style?

    Alex Gambardella on июн 6, 2009 9:43 AM PDT
    What's sexier than a guy with a great sense of humor? Hmm... OH, I know! I know! A guy with a great sense of humor... who can actually dress himself! Can I get an "amen, sister"? Just kidding, but seriously -- I guess when it comes to most celebs and their hired stylists, we can't exactly give them all the credit for picking out their wardrobe on their own, but still -- a cute, funny guy who also happens to be fashionable is a fine find indeed. While it may be stereotypically safe to assume that most goofy guys have equally laughable closets, it's refreshing to know that some of the younger generation funny fellas, including the likes of John Krasinski and Andy Samberg, know that there's a time and a place for making the crowds chuckle -- and their three-piece suits and tailored shirts are no laughing matter! These guys may not be the next Brad Pitts, but looking at how well they clean up, it's no wonder why their collective dating record reads like a Victoria's Secret catalog! Vote below on who you think is the most stylish snicker-inducer of the bunch.

    Kick Around In A Pair Of Loafers This Summer

    The fail-safe shoes known as the loafers haven't changed much over the past 10 years. They are simple, masculine and may be great for warmer weather, but these classic shoes are appropriate for year-round use. Loafers are one of the most effortless pieces of footwear a man can have in his wardrobe. I mean, all you have to do is slip them on and go. It can't get any easier than that. I am proud of my sole pair of Ferragamo loafers. In fact, they are one of my most coveted items in my closet. I keep them in a fireproof safe in there. They are uncomplicated, black and are beautifully constructed (what pair of Italian shoes aren't?). If Ferragamo isn't your cup of tea, go for the classicism of Gucci horse-bit loafers or the modernized Johnston & Murphy tassle loafer. But if you're one of those guys who want your feet to get attention, opt for the blue Cole Haan penny loafers or the zest of Ted Baker's Aglio loafers. Need something a little more flashy, yet subtle? Bottega Veneta has some basket woven kicks for you. Then there is the whole issue on whether to go sock-less when wearing loafers. There's no crime in showing some ankle, but if you're like me and have an irrational fear of going nude below the ankles, Banana Republic has the perfect remedy: no-show loafer socks. Here are some other loafer ideas to kick around.

    Khaki Suits Keep It Cool In The Spring And Summer

    image
    Dino-Ray Ramos on май 3, 2009 9:16 AM PDT
    A khaki suit is like a refreshing beverage on a warm day. It's crisp. It's light and it suits (no pun intended) the season. As the cooler seasons come to a close, put your black suit on the back burner and go for some lighter fare. A suit within the color palette of khaki can look just as good and sleek as a black suit. Another bonus for the khaki garb is that a lot of them are sold as separates and there's more versatility with the pieces-- but personally, I like to keep them all together. I have a separate black and khaki blazer that I use as my fail-safe separate. With the Ralph Lauren Rugby Newbury Chino suit, you can look like the perfect dandy and with a classic Brooks Brothers two-button poplin suit you can be the refined gentleman you were meant to be. A khaki or tan suit has this "happy-go-lucky" vibe that shines with the sun. With the right shirt, tie and pocket square, a lighter suit is a must for the spring and summer seasons. Check out the slideshow for some of these cool suits that are a lighter shade of brown.
