    New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2010: Lacoste

    While Fashion Week's weather has been becoming increasingly blustery, Lacoste's Spring/Summer 2010 show provided a much-needed vacay for its audience, channeling the carefree, sunshine-y vibe of a summer beach day with its boardwalk-inspired runway. With one main focus in mind- simple, sporty chic- the collection managed to be straightforward and effortless while still maintaining the bright and playful energy we've grown to expect from the brand. The models donned updated versions of classic tennis-inspired pieces like mesh sneakers, polo dresses, and cuffed shorts, but also threw in some unexpected twists, like hooded rompers, tailored blazers, and chic summery dresses that added a resort-like relaxed style to the brand's usual polished, prep school flavor. Take a look at the slideshow for a glimpse at some of the looks to come this spring!


    Trends: Saturated colors, pleated skirts, linen shorts, denim, hooded jumpsuits
    Celebrity Sightings: Mischa Barton, Hayden Christensen, Peaches Geldof, Alice Dellal

    UNIQLO's latest campaign, "The Sport of Life," reflects the fact that everyone's constantly on the move these days... hopefully clad in their comfy polos, A-line tee dresses, zip hoodies, pants, and vests made from movement-friendly jersey, stretch cotton, pique cotton, and soft terry in eyeblasting shades of acid-bright pink, blue, orange, and green. Spend 45GBP or more and either save 10% (use code UNIQ10OFF45) or get free shipping through the end of the year (code UNIQDEL45). Prices start around the $10 mark at UNIQLO.

    Behind The Scenes With The New Face of Polo Fragrances: Nacho ...

    I like Ralph Lauren's Polo style for a number of reasons. It's classic, it's comfortable, it's clean. And the main reason to like Ralph Lauren's Polo? The hot-blooded, tightly muscled, gorgeous male models for their Polo fragrances! The latest sexy hunk to join the ranks of handsome male Polo models is Ignacio "Nacho" Figueras. This rugged 25 year old hottie hails from Argentina and is an actual polo player! Nacho Figueras first started playing polo at the age of nine and at the young age of just 17, he began a professional polo career. Now at 25, Figueras has competed in many prestigious polo tournaments and is currently Captain of the Blackwatch Polo Team in New York. He's not just a jock, though! Figueras is also an ambassador for the sport and breeds horses at his Buenos Aires ranch. He also enjoys sailing and traveling. The only downside to this tall, dark and handsome Argentinian? He's happily married with two adorable young children. No worries! You can still see him whenever you want as he is the face of Polo Blue, Polo Black, the new Polo Modern Reserve and the Ralph Lauren fragrance trilogy known as "The World of Polo." Check out what Nacho has to say about life and love in this behind-the-scenes video!

    Lacoste Gives Us A Lesson In Crocodile Mythology

    I remember my very first Lacoste experience. I wore one of their polos to my first day of kindergarten (yes, I was way ahead of my time). I was so proud of the shirt that I went up to my teacher and said with boyish excitement, "Look! I have a crocodile on my shirt!" Fast forward to today and I still get excited when I don one of their polos. I go up to total strangers on the street and say with boyish excitement, "Look! I have a crocodile on my shirt!" In any matter, the crocodile has become synonymous with the savvy sportswear brand since Rene Lacoste started it over 75 years ago. To celebrate Lacoste's chic crocodile, they have created a collection of shoes that cleverly incorporates mythologies associated with crocodiles all around the world. The Ogata India is inspired by Hindu temple motifs and tells the ancient myth of the Hindu philosopher Shankara and his relationship with the Mugger Crocodile. The Tennis Polynesia uses rich brown tones of the New Guinea Crocodile and wood carvings of the Nuga, a half man half crocodile that is associated with the creation of the world. The urban legend of monstrous crocodiles in the sewers of New York City are showcased in the street-chic Revan 3 NYC, and the Rene Lacoste Japan (my personal favorite) tells the story of a blind men who was left to drown by his cruel sons via a gorgeous crocodile skin print upper inspired from traditional Japanese silk kimono. The other styles in the limited collection are created from crocodile mythologies from South Africa, Egypt, West Africa and Brazil. See some pics of the collection in the slideshow, then read more about these crocodile myths at www.lacostecrocmyths.com.

    Looking Dapper in Double-Breasted Blazers

    There always seems to be this mystique about double-breasted blazers. People are constantly wondering if they are still "in style" or if they are an appropriate purchase for the everyday man. My answer is yes and maybe. In terms of whether or not they are in style, double-breasted blazers are a timeless piece of clothing. Gentlemen have been wearing these for years and they have maintained an air of class that will never go out of style. They will just come in and out of the forefront sporadically. As for whether or not they are suitable for the everyday man, that is up to your discretion. Normally, I would say that double-breasted blazers are best for men that are tall and slender (I think Obama should try one out), but nowadays, men are being more adventurous. They are starting to dress like gentlemen again. That said, use your own judgment when filling out a double-breasted suit. If you feel comfortable in it and you look good, wear it with pride. If people look at you funny and you feel like the blazer is wearing you, then you should probably go the single-breasted route. If you do decide to go for the double-breasted, here are some that you can try on for size.
