Real Men Never Wear…
On October 5, 2009 at 4:30 am
Sometimes I am sadly reminded of how young and behind the curve America the great is. While bra burnings and domestic rights are current events here in America they are social topics of the past for other countries. While no country is perfect, and all have their own issues to face, I have to wonder when will [...]

The sixth episode of Project Runway Season 6 brought us the season’s first field trip, and I was more excited than a first grader on a crowded bus headed for the zoo! The designers met mentor Tim Gunn at a Hollywood sound stage to receive their challenge: designing a garment for a character in a [...]
Bombs Away!

Yesterday was an awesome chilly day in Manhattan. It allowed everyone to do what we have all been waiting to do, layer! From scarves to sweaters everyone was outfitted in a few of their favorite fall must haves. One particular item caught my eye. The always in style, always in vogue and always in fashion leather bomber [...]
Scarves!
On September 17, 2009 at 9:50 am
As the brisk caress of fall’s crisp kiss approaches many have begun to pull out their pre-fall pieces which for many includes their favorite accessory, the scarf. From double knitted cable scarves to tightly knitted pashmina, scarfs are as important to ones complete, and overall look as any other staple piece.

Ergo Cargo!
On September 16, 2009 at 8:20 am
Cargo pants are to men what leggings are to women. I have always been a fan of a great pair of cargo pants. The more pockets the better I say. From Da-Nang to the Gap I have a huge assortment of cargo pants. They offer at times a much needed break from slacks and jeans; [...]
Ed Hardley!

Someone please send Christian Audigier back to wherever he came from. From Von Dutch to his latest mutation Ed Hardy Christian Audigier has a habit of kicking a dead horse. Enough of the crystals and eccentric design patterns; we saw it, had it and now we are over it. Really!
When Ed Hardy first hit mainstream [...]
No Booties Allowed!
On September 3, 2009 at 12:50 am
Somewhere along the line women and fashion bloggers missed the mark on booties. Somewhere along the line women and fashion bloggers missed the mark on booties.
The polished meets the edgy look seems to be out of play here. Most fashion experts say booties with dresses look like hooves, and that women should cease from pairing [...]
In The Trenches…
On September 1, 2009 at 1:07 am
No other coat is as versatile as the trench coat, and no other coat commands the same respect as the trench coat…According to Wikipedia.
“The trench coat was developed as an alternative to the heavy sergegreatcoats worn by British and French soldiers in the First World War. Invention of the trench coat is claimed by both [...]

Your Fall Jeans
On August 28, 2009 at 8:10 am
So I have decided to please the Gods of Parcbench by doing one feature a week. While I generally do not care for features (because I feel that at some point it becomes less about the work, and more about the endorsement) I have found common ground in doing so. Going forward I will feature [...]
I Like What I Like…
On August 26, 2009 at 12:20 am
Fashion and style are very slippery topics. If you squeeze too tight you run the risk of them slipping our of your hand, and if you don’t hold tight enough the same may happen. At the end of the day both fashion, and style are subjective. What is appealing to one might not be appealing [...]
