Valentine’s Day Gifts for Men

January 27, 2008

Yes Ladies, Valentine’s Day is coming up fast. Most men know that it really is for the Ladies and that they better plan something nice or end up on the porch.  Many women don’t realize that men want to be appreciated as well. Why not? We’re human as well and have feelings. That is where Valentine’s gifts for men come into play. Many people like to wear something red on valentine’s day like a red dress shirt. If you are going out on the town, maybe something flashy like a red zoot suit to match your red valentine’s day dress will fit the bill. A red satin dress shirt is certainly something you can wear to show your support of Valentine’s Day. Just make sure that you still get your Roses Valentine’s Day Card 100_0383.jpgas well.

Church Suit Fashion

January 24, 2008

If you’re a frequent Church Goer, you know you need something proper to wear and look good too. That’s where the Church Suit comes to play. A Church Suit is a suit that is generally more fashionable than your boring old business suit. Church Suits come in all kinds of styles and colors to fit whatever mood you happen to be in that Sunday. These days it is not uncommon to be people fully decked out in a Church Suit with a matching color pair of dress shoes and topped off with a matching dress hat. It fact, it seems that this is the uniform of the modern Church Revival. Some men will Don their Church Suit in a color that matches their wife’s female Church Suit. Just picture a nice couple both wearing matching colors to church on Sunday as everybody admires them. Some people will seem like they never wear the same suit twice due their huge wardrobe. They sure look great. When you have a big Church wardrobe it’s good to be organized with your shoes, dress hats, and dress shirts as well so you can put together your ensemble without too much stress involved. Nothing is worse when you gotta go to Church and you can’t figure out what to wear and where everything is. Right.

Pimp Suits and Pimp Shoes

January 23, 2008

If you are under the age of thirty, chances are that any zoot suit or fashion dress suit you see will immediately be referred to as a pimp suit. I guess the flashyness of a bright color zoot suit or the shininess just makes you think that. Every pimp I ever saw in NYC was way more outrageously dressed than just a pimp suit. The few pimps I saw were dressed just like pimps are in the movies. They had on their zoot suit, tons of bling, outrageous looking hair style, crocodile shoes maybe and a fur coat on top. Even their car which was either a lincoln or cadillac was pimped out with zebra striped or leopard print fur as well. Just wearing a zoot suit doesn’t automatically make it a pimp suit. It’s what you do with the suit. To fully pimp out your zoot suit, it is important to wear matching everything. By matching everything I mean matching crocodile or alligator dress shoes, matching godfather dress hat and a matching satin or french cuff dress shirt with plenty of bling. Pimps and Pimp Suits are an urban slice of Americana. Also make sure you have your pimp cane like Snoop Dogg and a polish it constantly and a bling encrusted pimp cup that looks like it may cut your lip if you drink out of it.

Men’s Casual Linen Shirt and Pants Sets

January 16, 2008

Hey, if you’re going away on a nice tropical vacation to the islands somewhere or hopping on a nice cruise ship, you’re gonna need something to wear at night. Sometimes you can get away with shorts but what you really need to wear is a nice casual linen shirt and pants set. Casual linen sets are absolutely one of the best things to wear in the tropics with the high humidity. Why do you think all the Cubans love their linen Guayavera shirts. Because Linen fabric breathes and is light weight. Linen pant sets are also very classy to wear. They look great with sandels or slides. Don’t worry too much about wrinkles because men’s linen sets will wrinkle and still look great. The tropical sea breezes will cool you off in your linen set as well. When it comes time to washing your linen set just wash on gentle cycle or hand wash with woolite and lay flat or hang dry. Just don’t put your linen set in the dryer. Easy as pie.

If work has got you down add these ingredients to your life.

1. Tropical Vacation of at least one week.

2.Several Casual Linen Walking Suits

3.Your Favorite Tropical Drink(I like Pina coladas)

4.Good Friends

Mens Crocodile Dress Shoes

January 11, 2008

Now it’s no big secret that some of my best selling men’s dress shoes are crocodile print dress shoes. Crocodile shoes seem to be the thing to wear with zoot suits and casual walking suits. It’s no secret why. Exotic looking crocodile dress shoes are stylish and in some colors, flashy. Now I never could figure out the difference between Crocodile skin and Alligator skin when made into shoes. They look pretty much the same to me and give the wearer the same overall look. We have been selling crocodile print shoes which can be made of genuine leather or synthetic materials in many colors to match all of our zoot suits and walking suits. I always make sure if I get a suit in a specific color to try and get a matching color dress shoe. These days I usually get a matching color crocodile print shoe. The best thing about the crocodile print shoe is that they are reasonably priced. I just can’t see the point paying over four hundred dollars for a pair of shoes made of real crocodile. You can’t tell the difference and your feet can’t tell the difference either. Many of the dress shoes we carry will be mostly smooth leather with crocodile print trim. Just goes to show that anything with gator skin is hot. Many of my customers refer to these shoes as gators or gaiters. An abbreviation of alligator skin shoes. I also think it’s wrong to kill an animal just to made into shoes. Now if we eat crocodile or alligator meat that would be one thing. I just don’t like waste. To me it would be a shame to skin an animal and throw away the rest of the carcass. That’s just me. Check out our Crocodile Print Dress Shoes.
