LUISA VIA ROMA Blog Contest

This is a post that I put up for the Luisa Via Roma contest for the best blog entry to win a trip to Pitti Uomo Fashion Week in Italy in June. Please vote for me here adaywith.luisaviaroma.com! Thank you!
Seventies style is back in a major way and what says seventies style more than a beautiful chunky knit sweater jacket with a waist belt which became extremely popular because of the success of the Starsky and Hutch television series. Chunky knit jackets from several different designers are coming out this fall as well from 3.1 Phillip Lim for the ladies to the living legend himself Junya Watanabe for the men in a sportcoat silhouette. My favorite of course comes from Scott Sternberg’s Band of Outsiders in a charcoal grey and cream color combination with a waist belt! Also keep an out for some interesting knit sweaters releasing this fall as well from Michael Bastian’s ongoing collaboration with UK’s Gant. Check out Trussardi’s creative director Milan Vukmirovic showing everyone how it’s done!

POLO RALPH LAUREN Custom Fit Denim Ranger Shirt



This PRL Denim Ranger Shirt looks better than the one on the RalphLauren.com site without those dreadful epaulettes. Pick it up now @ MrPorter.com for $145.

THE NEW BLACKBERRY BOLD 9900


The new Blackberry Bold does look really cool! I have the Torch now and I hate that thing! Blackberry Touchscreen devices are the worst and they are so behind in that category. Everybody that I know that has a Blackberry Touchscreen device hates it. From the Storm to the Storm 2 to the latest Torch device. This new Bold also is going to be a touchscreen device so I am real skeptical of its release this summer. I want to see what Apple is going to do with the new iPhone 5 before I switch my phone but when this hits stores I will check it out because the original Bold was my favorite phone ever.

I need these ASAP!!! I'm going to rock the hell out of these this spring and summer with everything! They are going to retail for $170.
