    Giacomo Trabalza

    He's in Beverly Hills and I'm going to check out his shop. Anyone else been there yet? Makes suits for Arnald and I think they look fantastic. Arnold is comfy and that's what counts. I heard an interview with Trabalza and he specifically mentioned higher cut armholes which shows he is on...

    Show some sleeve

    Too often I see the wool overflowing to the palm of the hand. Show some sleave. I go for an inch though less is what most are asking when they get their jackets tailored. With the vintage suits' it is much easier as when you reach forward your sleeves don't ride up as much. With modern...

    Snap Cufflinks

    Some of the coolest things are the simplest. Better than the bullets you push through the cuff and turn sideways. Easier than using brass brads. The snap together cuff link allows you to slip the shirt off and hang it in the closet without worrying where you put the links... they're...

    The Pocket Phone- Cell Phones

    So I've had trouble with my pocket phones. I went through 5 razors from Motorola... I sweat when i dance and I talk when at clubs so when the keys hit my face it shorts the keys. I liked the razor for the simple fact that I could drop it in my shirt pocket or jacket pocket and the phone created...

    Rebel with a tie on

    There is a famous scene in rebel without a cause where James Dean is sitting in a room with a detective questioning him and his father standing beside, both clad in suits and ties James Dean wearing a white shirt and tie and dress trousers. Many times over in the movie you see James in a white...

    What do you love most about hats?

    It's a mood enhancer. It covers your eyes when you are lost and down and gets pushed back when you are tired. The hat tilts when you have an attitude and comes off when you are around something revered. It's a book end to end at the top what your shoes complete at the bottom. Keeps away the...

    Is youth around the corner?

    http://health.yahoo.com/news/167313 Well who really does want to live forever? I miss those old sci-fi movies with the jaded population waiting for the great exterminator to arrive (Zardoz). Hmmm. Perhaps not longer life though the look of youth for longer is a passion of many. I found my...

    Why bore them to death with navy blue?

    I don't understand. It's one of the most boring and ill matchable color when it comes to suits. They suggest navy blue. http://men.msn.com/articlees.aspx?cp-documentid=808248 If You get one suit. One suit for starting out a wardrobe, let it be grey. Solid grey. It matches with your black...

    ...

    The elipses is the punctuation of the new Millenium. It's something to think about. Used to be seen rarely, now they are everywhere online and on paper. People are trying to write more like people speak and I think it is a offshoot of all the instant communication. What do you think?

    Heimie's Haberdashery

    Where are the women?

    I was watching films on TCM the other day and noticed that the women in the films were real women... no some adolescent mid 20 or 30 year old still trying to get past her high school days, though they were real women. Dre Barrymore still plays girls. Katie Holmes in Batman Begins was a girl not...
