    Brogues And Oxfords Get Flirty And Feminine!

    Taking items that are typically associated with menswear and making them feminine is no novel idea when it comes to modern day fashion. We've seen it in every context from sexy tailored suits on the red carpet to boyfriend blazers on your average night out on the town. However, the latest trend in menswear-gone-girlie is here to serve as a welcome addition to your shoe collection, just in time for fall. Brogues and oxfords, though traditionally men's dress shoes, have certainly been worn by the ladies before... just not nearly as fashionably or with the same feminine edge as the latest styles provide! Studs, cut-outs, and bright colors vamp up the normally conservative-looking shoe, making them far more chic than what you'd stereotypically find worn by a butler. True, the whole idea of open toes and modern embellishments sort of negates the very definition of a brogue, but hey -- with modifications this cute, we won't toss them based on a silly technicality! Check the slideshow for some of my favorite oxford-inspired pairs!

    Amsterdam International Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2010: Ontfront

    Initially started in 2005 as a platform for young designers and artists, Ontfront didn't take long to get swept up by the fashion scene. The line found its niche in a creative and functional fusion of urban streetwear and professionalism known as Sidewalk Tailoring. Nowadays, Ontfront is a statement and huge success within the Amsterdam fashion and club scene. National and international fashion-forward celebrities like Emmy Award nominated DJ Diplo and Musiq Soulchild are dressed in some of their designs. For the Spring/Summer 2010 collection that Ontfront showed at the Amsterdam International Fashion Week, they continued to impress with the theme "Tonight is the Knight," which was evident by their brawny statures and iron gloves. The diverse collection was said to be inspired by the brave medieval knight, with the sophistication of comfortable heroism for the modern-day cavalier. With a collection of fitted tees and polos, button-down shirts and tailored suits, the designs certainly broke the mold of modern menswear with its fresh and edgy details. Check the slideshow for pictures of Ontfront's stylish knight parade!

    The Bowtie Is Back!

    Are bowties ready for a comeback? I sure hope so! No longer reserved for nerds at prom and Bill Nye the Science Guy, bowties have started popping up here and there. But are they prime for a big return or will it just be a flash-in-the-pan trend like the brief resurgence of men's short shorts? From hipster to hip-hop and all the way uptown to"Gossip Girl" territory, there's no denying that the trend is starting to build. Karl Lagerfeld has been spotted wearing a simple black silk bowtie for some time and Kanye West is rocking them in his sneak peak at his new clothing line Pastelle. Forgotten by fashion and relegated to dweeb territory for years, today's bowtie has a nostalgic kitschy feel that's fresh and new. Ready to jump on this trend? Check out the slideshow for some favorites. Not sure how to even tie a bowtie? Click "See Video" to watch Avvi66's YouTube video, "How to Tie a Bowtie" for a step-by-step how-to.

    Kick It Back, Boys, In The Season's Hottest Swimwear

    Beach season doesn't just give girls an excuse to indulge in the hottest swimwear picks; this season, men have got every reason to put some cash down on a closet-ful of summer swim shorts! Bold colors are best, and a print of some kind, be it plaid or flowery, is most flattering if found in design patterns that are a tad more intricate -- the big white hibiscus shapes on the plain-colored-background long board shorts were a hit back in the day, but this summer, that same suit has been brought to a new loudmouthed level. Sure, you may just be hot enough not to need to draw attention to your built bod, but make 'em look twice with the picks in my slideshow!

    Do Dad A Favor This Father's Day With Stress-Free Clothing Gifts

    image
    Alex Gambardella on июн 15, 2009 10:17 AM PDT
    We all know that generally speaking, men hate shopping. Although it would probably be a useful excuse to say that your addictive shopaholic nature comes from fierce bargain-hunting genes from both your parents, realistically your dad would probably rather be watching TV than trying on clothes in the dressing room. So while shopping-savvy gals like you or your mom might be insulted by seemingly obvious or "no-brainer" gifts like dress shirts or tube socks, you might be surprised to find out that when your dad says he needs practical gifts like clothes, he really means it. Forget that expensive newfangled GPS ('cause he'll never even read the directions to assemble it anyway) and think of all the time, boredom, and moaning and groaning you'll spare your dad by going out and doing his clothing shopping for him. By sticking to practical yet stylish gifts like a lightweight zip-up jacket, button-down striped shirts and sleek ties (after all, nothing says Father's Day like ties!), you'll be playing it safe in a good way by sticking to things you know Dad will actually wear and get good use out of. Check the slideshow for some easy-to-buy clothing picks that will keep your dad dressed to impress without him having to set foot in the hellish mall!

    Hot In The Hive: Lush's Daddyo Shampoo

    Alex Gambardella on июн 12, 2009 6:20 AM PDT
    Even if your father isn't exactly the "metro" type, he's still gotta wash his hair, right? And unless he's been blessed with remarkably good time-fighting genes (or he's an ageless vampire, but that's even less likely), chances are your dad is rockin' a salt-and-pepper hued 'do by now, if not a head of full-blown gray hair. Help him make the most of his time-seasoned locks and unleash his inner "silver fox" with Lush's Daddyo Shampoo, a lemon-scented purple lather formulated specifically to restore strength, infuse shine, and eliminate brassy tones for dads with distinguished grays (and other fair hair shades). Even if he's given up all hope on making over his dull-colored coif, Dad will definitely be taken by the fresh lemony (and very manly!) scent.


    Price: $26.75 for a 16.9 oz. bottle
    Who Found It: xgalexy was the first to add Lush's Daddyo Shampoo to the Hive.
