Oscars Best Dressed List
Everyone, and by everyone I mean EVERYONE, is tuning in to what will be the most talked about event this year, The 84th Academy Awards. The Oscar Red Carpet never fails to deliver the great and the worst fashions, the gossip and unexpected surprises. Many are eager to find out who will take home the golden Oscar, while others are only watching to know who and what are the celebrities wearing? Favorite fashion moments of the night includes The Help's Jessica Chastain wearing Alexander McQueen and Gwyneth Paltrow wearing Tom Ford. And here's something that everyone will be talking about tomorrow, The Dictator's Sasha Baron Cohen purposely spilled faux Kim Jong-il ashes all over Ryan Seacrests Burberry suit. Although Ryan didn't show it, he was upset fuming inside and ready to knock out the accent out of Sasha Baron Cohen, and I don't blame him. Here are my favorite picks of the night!

Warby Parker
I recently took a visit to the optometrist where I discovered I need, not one, but two pairs of glasses. While others would wail and be upset over getting glasses, like the fashion geek that I am, I looked at this as an opportunity and a great way to accessorize. I came across Warby Parker, a vintage inspired eye-wear brand that offers a selection of glasses, exceptional styles and various frames to fit any face shape. These frames are your classic-yet-modern look with a dash of sophistication and are priced at $95, which also includes the prescription lenses.
And check this out, if your super tight schedule prohibits you from visiting their showroom in SOHO, Warby Parker offers Home Try-On service. Meaning you can select up to 5 of your favorite styles to try on at the comfort of your home for FREE, how rad is that? What I admire most about this brand is their generosity and kindness; for every pair you buy they give a pair to a person in need.
Have any particular brand in mind that offers awesome frames? Please share below.

Farewell Fashion Week
As we bid farewell to New York Fashion Week I share my first experience, and most likely not my last, with all of you. The entire journey was exciting to say the least from beginning to end, from receiving invites weeks before to your favorite designer's show to being seated at venues like Lincoln Center and watching the magic come together And of course my personal favorite, the challenge of hailing a cab to be on time to your next show. Although the shows literally lasted for less than two minutes, I can assure you that those two minutes were the most exhilarating and thrilling moments I have ever experienced, better than any roller coaster I've been on. There were selections of music, models, styles that were truly memorable and then there were the not so epic moments including models stumbling on the runway and fashion fails. And not to disregard the freebies and gift bags that were offered, I mean who doesn't love free stuff? More importantly, during this learning experience I discovered I am an excellent cab hailer and next season I'm pulling out the big guns and investing in an entire wardrobe purposely for NYFW. See you all in the Fall!

NYFW: Rag & Bone Fall 2012
Rag & Bone has done it again and this time with a bit more drama and edge. In their latest collection, Rag & Bone have Incorporated elements such as militant, darkness, the daily working man with a twist of urban romanticism into one creation. The colors, fabrics, details, materials, patterns and I can go on all day, just screams bad ass brilliant. I am obsessing over every piece from this collection, whether it's the leather-collared coats, blood colored shearling-collared topcoat, or the herringbone blazer, I want it all. And is that a floral blazer I see?! It is indeed. Rag & Bone has created a collection, which I praise them for, that will make layering easy for us metro men this fall.

Wang
Alexander Wang is one of my favorite designers to date. Although some might critique and question his expansion to the menswear industry, and I may agree that his men’s collection wasn’t his best, however as one of the most creative, inspirational and innovative designers the fashion industry has encountered, I am eager to see his next collection. This chunky black turtleneck sweater with leather elbow patches by Wang might be my favorite buy this winter. Every aspect of this sweater, from fit to fabric, is just simply perfect. What I admire most about Alexander Wang is his ability to make sweatpants look so damn good. So I decided to give the all-black-everything look a shot and styled this chunky sweater with a black nylon vest and black combat boots.

'Tis the Season to Wear Orange
Who would have ever thought in a million years that Orange would be the color of the year? Yeah, neither did I. Well, fortunately for you, I'm here to make sure you look some-what decent in the color orange. Orange chino pants are going to be seen everywhere, if they haven't been seen yet, so go grab a pair. Navy and orange just does it for me. Both colors compliment each other and when wearing them together it just feels, oh so right. Plus, according to the groundhog the spring is near and what better way to celebrate than adding a splash of color to your wardrobe. I encourage you metro men out there the next time you go shopping, if you're anything like me that would most likely be today, try something on with the color orange whether it be a pair of chinos, a bag or a sweater, you'll be amazed.
