Fall Fashion Finds!

September 23rd 2013 Push those summer clothes to the back of the closet... and don the latest fall fashions. Here are a few tips to ensure you look great as we transition into autumn. FOR THE LADIES Whether you love ‘em or hate ‘em, pastels are making a comeback this fall. Runways have been full of baby blues and pale pinks, but, as with all in vogue looks, there’s a right way to wear them and a wrong way. The trick is to pair pastel colors with traditional fall colors. Oversized coats are also trending. Think menswear-inspired. As for colors, pastels work, as well as more traditional coat hues like gray or olive green. And last but not least on your shopping list for fall fashions is leather, (we love the Fall All Saints Collection) Over-the-knee boots make a strong statement and look as good worn with pants or with a skirt. And speaking of pants, leather pants are a great option this year. Paired with a cashmere sweater, for example, you can’t go wrong. FOR THE GUYS Men, it’s time to re-embrace the classic, clean look of the camel coat. The lighter color will set you apart from all the navy blues (a big color for fall/winter of 2012), grays and blacks. Worn with darker colors, a camel coat really pops. Cotton is always a good choice for fabrics, but it’s fairly common place. To stand out, tweed and wool look to be big this year. Jackets, blazers, coats, suits and sweaters that incorporate tweed, wool or a wool blend (if you don’t want to spend the day itching) will keep you warm and looking good. As for footwear, like the ladies, men should invest in a good pair of boots. Leather boots in brown or black work well dressed up or down, and should keep your feet dry and warm, whatever the weather. And remember, guys and girls, you don’t have to break the bank to look good. A few quick Google searches will give you an eye for what fashions to snag when out shopping, and there are bargains to be found. Know what you’re looking for and hit the stores, geared up to be in style this autumn! — LATEST NEWS & EVENTS — Refer and Win! We love referrals and we love you!

Rock a Tie for New York Fashion Week!

September 4th 2013 It's Fashion Week! Time to don that tie and here's how... If you’re wearing a tie, it will often be one of the first things people notice about your ensemble. It’s critical, then, that you get the basics right. Narrow ties are in right now, so let any broad ties you have take a well deserved break in your closet and stick to skinny ties this year. (The widest point should be between 2 ¼ and 3 inches wide.) Length is important, too. The tip of your tie should fall at your belt. Few things kill the look of an otherwise stylish tie like wearing it too short or too long. THE BOW TIE If you’re looking for a stand-out fashion choice, the bow tie isn’t just for stuffy history teachers any more. Patterned bow ties can be worn with a suit, sweater or even just an oxford, and will give you a unique, stylish look. Just be sure to opt for the tie-it-yourself variety. COLOR AND PATTERN Solid colors are always safe. They give a guy a clean look and are easy to match. The obvious choice here is black or dark blue, though any dark solid color will work. If you prefer a pattern, stripes, bold plaids and paisley are all a good choice, provided the pattern doesn’t clash with your shirt. THE KNOT Finally, you need to know how to tie your tie. The current style is a smaller, neat knot. Don’t worry with the well known half Windsor. Instead, stick to the lesser known four-in-hand knot. You can wear it with a wide variety of collar styles, and it is neither too big nor too small. There you have it. Stick to these tips and you’ll be rocking a tie in no time. — LATEST NEWS & EVENTS — Happy New Year! Shana Tovah! We love you! Happy Hearts for the Jewish new year. Speaking of Holidays?

Easy Ways To Look Hip, Without Being A Hipster..

August 13th 2013 28on27's Easy Ways to look hip without being a hipster.. ..Hipsters. They seem to be everywhere because, well, they are. Or, at least their style is. Of course, the true hipster is about more than mere fashion. It's an attitude that tends to be a little rebellious, place high value on individualism, leans toward liberal politics and is big into indie rock/art. However, you don't have to change your socio-political views to take advantage of hipster style. Here are a few basic tips for looking hip without being a hipster. GUYS & GALS But first, a word about gender. When it comes to hipster fashion, the rules are almost identical for guys and girls. Seriously, there is very little differentiation. In fact, hipster hair styles tend to be intentionally androgynous. Regardless of whether or not you're rocking a Y chromosome, the following tips are equally applicable.. THINK SKINNY We're not talking diet—we're talking cut. As in, skinny jeans, tapered shirts and thin ties. Your entire ensemble doesn't have to be form-fitting, but it's good to have at least one article of clothing that fits slim, and there are lots of options. Rare, novelty/vintage t-shirts are a great option, as are skinny jeans or, for the ladies, leggings. Bonus points if you can work a pair of Converse into your outfit. THINK VINTAGE Vintage is in right now in a big way. The more vintage (meaning older and rare), the better. Not only is it acceptable to hit the thrift stores searching out a unique style, it's advised. And don't forget the option of raiding your parents' (or grandparents') closets. The good news is that you can expand your wardrobe on the cheap. Yes, there are plenty of name-brand labels catering to the hipster style right now, but you can just as easily enhance your look by shopping at your local Goodwill. THINK PERSONAL In many ways, creating an individual look is the essence of hipster style. Whether that means altering your clothes with a personal touch—adding a couple of stylish rips to your jeans, for example—or accenting a jacket with a home-made pin, feel free to make your look yours. Unapologetic, slightly quirky individualism is cool. Above all, have fun. There are few hard rules when it comes to hipster fashion, so embrace a look that is stylish while remaining comfortable and personal. Make it yours. — LATEST NEWS & EVENTS — Cup of Joe anyone?

Shame Free Manscaping this summer...

July 29th 2013 Journo credit Adam Martin How to Manscape shame free this summer! Okay, so you’re tired of folks down at the local pool claiming they’ve seen Big Foot any time you decide to take a dip. Very understandable. In recent years, ‘manscaping’, or body hair trimming and removal for men, has become popular. However, it’s a daunting task and you don’t want to go about it the wrong way. Here are a couple of tips to get you looking good all over for summer. PRIMING First, before you start shaving any body hair (assuming you’re planning to shave), take the time to do some trimming. A pair of clippers comes in handy here. If you are planning to shave, the closer the trim, the better. Just be careful around any loose skin or sensitive areas, like your nipples. You want to clip the hair, not your skin. BACK HAIR Kill it. Kill it all.  You can remove all the hair from your back without a second of hesitation. Our culture is pretty much agreed that backs are better hairless. The problem of back hair is that it can be tough to reach. The most obvious solution is to recruit help—a girlfriend, wife or friend who owes you a great deal of money. If enlisting a shave slave is not an option, there are some clever products out there (like the Razorba) that can help you achieve a hairless back solo. CHEST & STOMACH HAIR Some people like a hairy chest and some would rather go hairless all over. This is more a matter of preference than anything else. If you’re not sure how shorn you want to go, start with just trimming your chest/stomach hair and see how it looks, but don’t get too creative. There’s no need for designs or intricate blending. Just pick a length and trim, trim, trim. If you decide you’d prefer no hair, you can (carefully) trim against the grain with the lowest setting on your clippers, or shave. Shaving against the grain will get you a closer shave, but may also result in some ingrown hairs. UPKEEP Whatever degree of manscaping you decide on, try to maintain your groomed look throughout the summer. Yes, it takes a little time, but the more you do it, the easier and faster it will become. — LATEST NEWS & EVENTS — Fashion Week Fall! It's never too early to think about FW2013!

Thank You New York Fashion Week

February 13th 2013 Thank You New York Fashion Week 2013... It’s been a hectic two weeks for us because of NYC Fashion Week! We're exhausted but inspired! In honor of our favorite season fashion, we've collated 6 quick fashion tips and tid-bits: 1).Did you know that the first New York Fashion Week was held in 1943 with the purpose of distracting from French fashion during World War II?  2). No matter how cool, or how hip a new fashion trend is, if it doesn’t flatter your body type, don’t buy into the trend.  3). It’s always better to be overdressed than underdressed. 4). Don’t go shopping alone. Bring a friend to give you an honest opinion on how something looks. 5). Remember what works for you: If you have a day where you feel you’ve mastered a specific look, take a picture of yourself so you can refer to it on another day.  6). Accessorize! If you’re on a tight budget, buy a statement scarf, a pair of nice shoes, or exotic jewelry to spunk up an older wardrobe.  28on27 salutes New York Fashion week and wishes you happy styling! — LATEST NEWS & EVENTS — 28on27 Living Social Deal!

28on27 Juans Top Spring Fashion Tips!

January 24th 2013

Juan's Top Spring Fashion tips... Although winter is still in full effect, here at 28on27 we’re already reminiscing about sunshine, bright colors, bikinis, and open-toed shoes. Our Events and Studio Manager, Juan, is a connoisseur for all things fashion-related. And he’s especially excited for the 2013 spring and summer season. He has perused and probed multiple fashion magazines and websites to provide us with his favorite up-and-coming trends. It’s time to get in the gym and get ready, because spring will be here before we know it. It’s a good thing too; we’re gettingpretty bored with the brown-boot craze… Here are Juan’s top picks for 2013: Sunglasses: The bigger, the bolder, the better! This season, sunglasses aren’t just for blocking out the sun—they’re for attracting as much attention as possible. Diamond bedazzled, flower adorned, and pearl embellished frames will rock streets across the world. The crazier the frame, the hotter the trend. If you can’t handle all that attention, Juan recommends picking frames with at least a little color. Remember, this season, less is not more.

Shoes: Lately, we’ve cherished the 80’s like they’re never coming back. But the fashion world has thought otherwise. Move over 80’s, because the 90’s are taking over. Leave the platforms and the chunky heels in the closet—The 90’s are about exposing the posh, sleek, ultra-feminine in all of us. Shoes are no exception. Expect killer sky-high stilettos and gladiator-inspired heels. Prepare those toes; you’re going to need more pedicures and massages than ever.

Clothes: Who said April showers bring May flowers? This season, we’re embracing the inner-criminal in all of us. As seen in every major runway, the jailbird is back. Models on numerous runways have flaunted both horizontal and vertical black and white stripes. However, pick your outfit carefully. The jailbird trend won’t work at kids’ sporting events—you don’t want to be mistaken for the referee. Regardless of how your wear them, the inmate-inspired look works on men, children, and pets.

Lace, window dresses, box tops, and ruffles are also expected to be a huge hit this spring and summer season. Don’t let the cold deter you—Juan encourages you to get out and go shopping now!
