Gourmet…Shoes for the refined taste

Gourmet (pronounced /ɡɔrˈmeɪ/) is a cultural ideal associated with the culinary arts of fine food and drink, or haute cuisine, which is characterised by elaborate preparations and presentations of large meals of small, often quite rich courses…Wikipedia

Following on from that definition, I agree that Gourmet Shoes started in 2005 by Jon T Buscemi, Greg Lucci and Greg Johnsen definitely fits that name. Simply put Gourmet shoes are comfortable and tasty foot gloves that look good and compliment any style perfectly. Best thing, the prices are very reasonable. Hit their website for more tasty pics of their shoes. Fall 2009 collection is simply amazing. Below are some of my fave shoes.

HOW TO ROCK A PLAID SHIRT

Okay, let's pretend it's 7 days later and you've gone to the store and bought a plaid shirt or two, now you're like "okay, what do I do next, how do I wear this"...

Option #1: "The East Village Way": white v-neck tee underneath,skinny jeans or jeans that fit, worn down chucks, skippers, or neutral colored boat shoes, and the shirt should be worn open or buttoned over the tee, oh and don't forget to roll up the sleeves. Optional accessories include a hat (the kind your grandpa wears, lol) and wayfarer shades.

Option #2: "The Benjamin Bixby Way": v-neck sweater, khaki or neutral colored cords (aka corduroy pants), loafers or new pair of neutral colored Converse (the beige ones), and the shirt should be worn underneath the sweater tucked in or out depending on your mood. Optional accessories include a hat, striped scarf, and braided leather bracelet.

Option #3: "The Too Cool For School Way": bright colored jeans (any color jeans that fit really), fitted hat, badAzz sneakers- like pair of Creative Recreation. Optional accessories include glasses- yes, the nerdy kind.

Men’s Fashion Flash : Herds of The Fathers

Today I wanted to introduce you to Herds of the Fathers(www.herdsofthefathers.com), a new leather accessories line pegged for the sophisticated urban gentleman:

Herds of the Fathers was created by Jason Akoi and Tobi Babajide, two New Jersey natives who met while attending Rutgers University. They started the line from scratch in their college dorm room because they said, “We were searching for leather backpacks, but couldn’t find ones that fit our lifestyle. “

So we decided to create our own line of men’s leather goods. We started with backpacks and the mini coin purses, but in the near future, we will add belts, wallets, messenger bags, and many more products.” Their bags are handmade with quality leather and are perfect for school, work, and beyond.

A Herds of the Fathers piece will run you from $60 for a mini backpack to $310 for a Duffle Bag. A small price to pay for durable leather goods that will transcend trends and stand the test of time.
