Style Jack: Tom Brady

January 8, 2008 04:00 PM

The Patriots ended the year perfectly 16-0 with their QB currently holding the NFL record for most touchdowns in a regular season.

GQ says the American style is “dominating the world of fashion." As proof, the magazine dressed The Chronicles of Narnia actor Ben Barnes in various labels in the classic style. While designer names aren’t in our budget, thankfully the timeless styles are easy to mirror on a budget. One look in particular mixes casual and preppy pieces that carry over from summer to fall.

Orlando Bloom: Style Jack

August 15, 2008 11:00 AM

Since the days of the Lord of the Ring and Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, Orlando Bloom’s has ditched the long hair but kept his cool low-key style. There’s something, oh, carefree about his look, which People magazine once described as “young bohemian.” But here Bloom keeps it simple, with jeans topped off with black on a quick errand in between projects. Works for us. The sunglasses: Black round frames from Fossil, $44. The shirt: Black long-sleeve oxford shirt with …

Barack Obama’s Convention Look: Style Jack

August 29, 2008 01:00 PM

Yep, we were listening to the words when Barack Obama gave his acceptance speech for the presidential nomination at the Democratic National Convention, but we couldn't help but be distracted by his look -- especially the tie. The guy's got class -- his look is modern and pulled together -- but the color of his tie, especially, was a refreshing change from your typical politically correct red or blue. Here's a quick round up some pieces you could use to get …

Dave 1 of Chromeo: Style Jack

September 5, 2008 01:00 PM

Dave 1 (Dave Macklovitch) is the stylish counterpart of the electro-funk duo Chromeo. While his other half is thuggishly chill, we opt for Dave 1’s look because he makes simplicity look cool. See him (left) at the inaugural All Points West Festival in New Jersey where he gives the perfect balance of brown in his outfit. In between, we find sleek white pants paired with a fitted shirt … popped collar, of course along with rolled up sleeves. This style is …

September 12, 2008 01:00 PM

Get ready for another romantic comedy this fall: The Accidental Husband. Alright, so this may not be your favorite genre but at least take a note of Colin Firth’s character, Richard, who is the “accidental” – think comedic twist – fiance to a radio talk-show host (Uma Thurman). Richard keeps it classy, in the pictured scene to the left, with a three-piece suit with the added pocket square for extra color detail. Suits don’t have to break the bank, so check …
