    Crisis of Conscience and New Year's Resolution

    My resolution is to not shop at all for clothing and non-essential items in 2009, put some of that money in savings, and spend the rest on charity. I am one of those persons who has a good income and a fairly secure job, and I feel like it's time for me to give even more back. I am sharing this...

    An Incredible Sale at Saks!

    Today I snagged a pair of Ferragamo suede motorcycle boots and a pair of A Testoni suede monk strap shoes, $279 for both! Also, added a Brioni sportcoat for $600, 3 Armani sweaters for $280, a Jill Sander sweater for $85, and Etro and Dior shirts for $150. This is not a joke!

    Morgan Freeman's Suits in Wanted

    If anyone here saw Wanted, do you know whose clothes Morgan Freeman wore? If I had to guess, I would say either Isaia or Borrelli based on the cut and fabric. A so-so movie, but gorgeous clothes!

    RL Sale Begins May 15th

    I received my "take an additional 25% off the sale price" card in the mail yesterday and my salesperson informed me last Saturday (when she set a few items aside for me) that the "Grant" (Edward Green) shoe would be on sale at 40% off in case anyone is interested. Based on...

    Ralph Lauren Suits = Corneliani

    This may have been mentioned on this forum before, but I've had two Ralph Lauren "Made to Measure" suits made and, for both, I noticed that the shipment tags indicated that the suits were made by Corneliani. For what it's worth, I am very pleased with the results. I am assuming that...

    What I found in my April subscription to GQ

    Besides a very nice cover picture of Adriana Lima, there was a Lexus "h" pocket square inside for me enclosed in an advertisement for Lexus Hybrids. The pocket square has a white background with what resembles blue "fingerprint" etching throughout with an "h" in...

    Brown Shoes = The New Black

    From the "Sunday Styles" in today's New York Times: BROWN men's shoes, popular with the aristocracy in the 1930s, when they were championed by the Prince of Wales and Hollywood movie royalty, are being revived in Manhattan. After World War II, the conventional black shoe returned, except among...

    Thom Browne Wingtips

    The most recent issue of GQ featured several wingtip styles, including a black pebble-grain by Thom Browne. After unsuccessful telephone calls to NM in San Francisco and Bergdorf Goodman (where, according to GQ, the shoes could be found), I found them at the Thome Browne store on Hudson Street...

    What You Got for Christmas

    My wife really surprised me this year and presented me with a Chanel black ceramic chronograph watch for Christmas. I am so overwhelmed with her gift that I am wondering what surprises others on this Forum may have received. Are/were there any other great surprises like mine?

    Black Fleece - Please explain?

    I went to Brooks Brothers yesterday to purchase a few items for Christmas for my wife and saw a very nice looking, man-style, tuxedo jacket. I liked it enough that I thought to purchase it for my wife until I saw the price - $2800! Even though Brooks has a "special promotion" going...

    Canali in B.H.

    I'm going to be in L.A. for the next 6 days and, while there, one of my stops will be to visit the Canali store in Beverly Hills. I've had a "long distance relationship" with this store for the past year, purchasing 3 suits from them that I liked from Canali's catalog, but this will...

    Kiton Shoes

    What is your opinion on Kiton shoes? Are they worth the price? I'm eyeing a pair of very attractive Kiton wingtips at Neiman Marcus that cost $2200. I'm used to paying that for a suit, but have yet to "cross over" to that realm for a pair of shoes. The salesman is holding them for me and I told...

    Saks D.C. Consolidation Sale

    The consolidation sale at Saks Mens Store at Mazza in D.C. begins this Thursday, August 9th. I believe that the prices of goods will be at 60% off existing sale prices. You never know, but I will try to catch some Isaia and Brioni pieces.

    Finds or Must Haves from 2007 Summer Sales

    Because I shot most of my "fun money" in Rome, I decided to be very circumspect regarding purchases during this season's sales. I found two items, however, that I am rather excited about. One is a Canali suit from Saks (2nd Cut) for $770; and the other is a Kiton Blazer that went to...
