Tranquil-Stripe Yoga Mat from J. Crew

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

Tranquil-Stripe Yoga Mat

Here’s something I never thought I would find in the Jcrew catalog. Yoga is a fun activity that not only works the body, but also is very relaxing and enjoyable for all those that conquer it. You could easily practice your yoga without a mat, but it’s always recommended that with the proper workout, comes the proper equipment. Jcrew has stepped up its yoga game and now offers yoga mats! The Tranquil-stripe yoga mat provides a stable, nonslip surface for floor exercises-and it’s lightweight enough for travel. If you are going to break a sweat, you might as well do it in style!

Upgrade Your Swim Trunks, Now!

Friday, July 18th, 2008

With the sun beating down on you and the heat seemingly melting your skin away, those summer time pool and beach party invites couldn’t have come at a better time. The only problem is, what do you wear to such an event. While those old swim trunks with the netting have served you for many years it’s about time you upgraded to something a little more, this season. Men tend to usually not like updating their swim wear and sadly it shows. Those bland trunks your ex-girlfriend told you not to buy, but you did anyway, need to be retired.

We’ve taken the hassle out of you having to shop around and collected some of this seasons best offering in Men’s swimwear. Now all you have to do is decide which pair suits your style.

If you have issues with the length of some swim shorts, then a Bermuda type swimsuit will perfectly match your style. These Red Bermuda-map boardshorts ($59.50) from Jcrew have a 9′ inseam and hit at the knee to give you the length you desire. They also have cargo pockets with a logo label on the left and back Velcro-flap pockets which give you the option to store your wallet, keys and even small electronics like your iPod full of summer tunes. They are made from a quick drying cotton/nylon and have a Velcro® fly with drawstring at waist, so if you have a little extra around the waistline, these will work with you.

If you’ve spent your winter putting in hours at the gym, you might want to go with something a little more fitted, and why not, you worked for it. The appropriately named Yeeha boardies from AussiBum ($58.27) give a more form fitting look with a shorter short and bolder coloring. They are 100% Polyester and have a snap button closure on the waist

Since you won’t be in the water all the time, you might want to opt for something more versatile giving you the option to be stylish on land and functional once in the water. O’Neill, a legend in boardshorts, gives you a bunch of different options to choose from. The Grizzley Boardshort ($52.00 ) features a plaid print with a superfly closure, a side welt pocket and embroidered and screened logo. They are also made out of 100% Ultrasuede Nylon which not only makes them dry super fast, but also gives them a soft feel. This makes them perfect for an easy transition from beach party to bar after party, but only if worn right. *

When it comes to Boardshorts, don’t be afraid to go a little over the top with the pattern. Nine times out of ten, the shorts will be the only thing you have on, so it’s OK if you go a little crazy. Step out of your solid color comfort zone and go with a super bold print like these Quiksilver Thunderland Boardshorts ($52.00). These island-style printed trunks scream bold with their floral and stripes pattern, giving a tropical feel no matter were you are. They are 100% polyester with a neoprene fly with velcro and tie closure.

If any of these shorts are not your style, or maybe now you want to venture out on your own and check out some of the many options in boardshorts and swim trunks, head on over to Swell, Aussie Bum and Jcrew to find more options that we are sure you will like.

*Go commando. There is no need to have soggy underwear or stop the party to change out of them.

Cameron Printed Espadrilles From J. Crew

Cameron Printed Espadrilles From J. Crew

Open-toed shoes are popping up everywhere. And while the weather, and your toes, might not be ready for them, there is no reason you can’t get started now on enhancing your spring and summer shoe collection. If you don’t have a pair of espadrilles in your closet I would encourage you to consider that as an addition for the upcoming warm weather seasons. These new Cameron Printed Espadrilles From J. Crew are definitely on my wish list. They have a number of print options from animal print, to polka dots, to just bright designs on cotton or linen. They have the classic espadrille heel with a peep toe opening. What makes these extra sexy is the ankle strap with the buckle enclosure. These will look cute with just about anything from jeans, to capris, to a dress. The only problem I seem to be having is that I can’t decide which print or color I want.

Panama Bag In Printed Canvas From J.Crew

Panama Bag In Printed Canvas From J.CrewPanama Bag In Printed Canvas From J.Crew

One of the things I look forward to in the New Year is all the new clothing lines that emerge at your favorite retailers as they get rid of all their winter pieces to make room for the spring collection. I got the new J.Crew catalogue in the mail and it was full of all clothes for the upcoming change in season. And, from what I have seen, it seems like the theme running throughout is bright colors. I am already thinking about all the new clothes I need to add to my wardrobe for the warm weather and you can’t of course forget about bags to fit with the new color palettes and design. The Panama Bag in Printed Canvas from J.Crew is the perfect bag to prepare for the spring. It comes in 3 color designs on sturdy cotton canvas with a wood frame handle to finish the look. It would work with jeans or even a flirty dress.

Shawl-Collar Fleece Popover

Shawl-Collar Fleece Popover

I keep getting J.Crew fall catalogues in the mail and every time I see it, I know it is not going to be good for my budget. And sure enough, each time I open it I see at least 5 new things to obsess over before finally succumbing and purchasing them. One of the new things that I saw and really liked is this Shawl-Collar Fleece Popover sweater. It comes in a variety of color options and is made out of fleece cotton, which is a perfect addition to your winter wardrobe. It’’s a fitted pullover with three quarter length sleeves and a large front pocket. It has an oversized folded collar forming a v-neck so you can definitely layer another shirt under this.

How To Wear A Vest

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

Jcrew Vest

When I was younger and against wearing blazers because I thought they were “uncool” and stuffy, I used to always go for a vest when a formal event popped up. I always thought it was stylish and great alternative and a good way to make you standout in a crowd full of coated men while still looking formal. I haven’t worn a vest in years because I’d gotten over my fear of looking uncool and started wearing blazers. I’ve never thought about going back to vest but Details has a good guide on How To Wear A Vest and gives you five stylish ways to pull of the vest as a stand along piece. Here are a few options to consider from a few of our favorite brands.
