In the cautious universe of branding, appearance is an expression of discipline, there’s simply too much money riding on a star to make actual stylishness worthwhile. ‘Taking risks is not profitable,’ style journalist Cintra Wilson said. ‘To anyone.’
As we set up plans for our 2nd Annual Shave 2 Save event here is a lil promo video.

MAKE WAY FOR THE NEW MODERN MAN
With spring in the air, you took the dirty task of cleaning out the closet. Where you discovered clothes, shoes amongst other things don’t match up with the type of person you are at this moment. So what’s a Rascal to do?
STAY CALM, we got this.
Here we have MY OLD BOSS Bob Mitchell on Martha Stewart (video link) giving a small tutorial what to look for when you are updating your look. Keep being you but let’s add a little spit and polish into the mix.
Rules for a Properly Fitted Suit
1. Tie width should be proportionate to the lapel width.
2. The shirt should be fitted (not baggy), and be in proportion to the jacket.
3. The jacket should barely hit the top of the thigh.
4. Jacket sleeves should end between the knuckle and thumb.
5. Suit buttons should sit at a man’s belly button. If the buttons are near the belt buckle, the stance is too low.
6. Opt for flat-front pants, which “kiss” the top of the shoe, creating a very small break.
7. Pant cuffs should be a minimum of 1 3/4 or 2 inches, depending on the man’s height. Lighter fabric suits often don’t have a cuff, while wool suits do.
8. Always wear a pocket square in the suit jacket.
So take these tips to heart and let’s show the world or simply your neighborhood that “YOU’RE BACK”

What if next week’s Super Bowl ends up becoming a waste? (The Patriots are big favorites to win.) What then? Upcoming during the first quarter of Super Bowl Sunday will be Audi’s tasteful assault on a decade’s obsession with vampires. It’s especially different from your average car commercial considering the HEADLIGHTS are the star of this show.
There are certain songs that get better at this time of the night, in this type of weather, while on the road viewing the world through muddled colors of water drops on the windshield. Drake’s opening track on “Take Care” is one of those songs.…
The fun part is wondering what they’ll become. The hard part is letting them find that out on their own terms.

I find that the closer HipHop is to the street the more broad it’s emotion—when the music/artist is good, at least. Pictured here are local acts from Connecticut at an event aptly named “Message to HipHop”.
Sometimes when you go looking for something good, you just might get it. (And the Giants won that night, too!)
4 Major Distractions for Men in the Gym.
The following is a conclusion drawn by my experiences enduring the wave of new faces at the gym within the last few days….
1. The Mirror
And the incessant need of some to measure progress….after each set. Last I checked, these things take time.
2. The Well-Built Woman (and she knows it).
She knows you’re watching. And why wouldn’t you? She’s worked hard for that body (or is, at least, grateful to her genetics). Either way, I imagine she’ll have more respect for you if you take yourself seriously first. Finish that set.
3. Your smartphone.
…time flies when you’re texting.
4. What plan?
If you don’t know what you’re doing, it shows. Not everyone can afford a personal trainer, but the Google machine has made life into an open book test. Pick up a fitness magazine and read the material.
