This is David! He is an image consultant and the star of an internet reality show called “Concrete & Cashmere” which is a NYC web–based reality show that follows the lives of 8 aspiring fashion professionals competing for $10,000… Here he is demonstrating how good a man can look on a sweltering summer day. The soft pastel shirt pops, the pocket square compliments the shirt without over doing it, the vest keeps it light, and the brown shoes with black trousers clearly says to all men, you do NOT have to be afraid of a brown shoe. You’d be surprised at how many men are opposed to a brown, or bordeaux, shoe. The most important thing this look highlights is fit. Fit is King! Bravo David…. Bravisimo!

Dobry Den..Good Day..

On a beautiful summer Saturday in New York, I came upon a darling Russian woman. Her white dress caught my eye, what a great vintage piece I thought. She told me it was handmade and she purchased it 30 years ago in the Ukraine (that little country in Eastern Europe that is bordered by Russia). Could you imagine 30 years ago… and it’s in mint condition and she’s still the same size! Moya…that means sweet in Russian.

Jane a darling Upper East Sider is the real Carrie Bradshaw! She was arriving home from a night on the town with a very handsome date, strutting into her white gloved doorman building. And just like that…I quickly snapped a shot of her…

Any Given Sunny Day…

Strolling down 5th ave. on a gorgeous sunny afternoon I came across these two handsome young men who were wearing interesting t-shirts. They had a fresh hip look about them, so I chatted them up… Santo was wearing the white t-shirt that he designed himself and Alberto is wearing the same one in yellow. They actually sell them there on 5th between 81st and 82nd. They also sell these cool NYC subway maps covered in beautiful art work! Santo runs Papa B. Studios in Brooklyn, it’s an artist collective production house where they rent affordable communal studio space for all sorts of local artists, they also have a small shop called Re-Up Brooklyn where art supplies, skateboards, t-shirts and other goodies are sold. I learned all of this just stopping to compliment a t-shirt. On any given sunny day you can find Santo and Alberto on 5th ave. by the Met between 81st and 82nd. If your the neighborhood stop and say hello or hola!
