PICK OF THE WEEK

Nothing beats great music and style. We get particularly excited when we come across both. (Do we even need to mention The Beatles? That's pretty much a given) Our pick is Raphael Saadiq - someone who's been playing in our iPod for quite some time now. He delivers on both counts, and we could not be happier. 
If you enjoyed that, might we also suggest another well-dressed band: Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings. Can't go wrong.
Who are some of your favourite bands with iconic style?

ARM PARTY 2.0

The last time we talked about arm parties, we were talking about the ones of the female variety, as popularized by The Manrepeller.

However, the arm party isn't just for the ladies anymore. Men everywhere have been getting the party started on their limbs as well. Here's our version:

Our arm party may look more like a small gathering, but sometimes, less is more.

PICK OF THE WEEK: DID YOU KNOW?

We found this gem of photo: Michael Jordan in (what is arguably) a strange, sartorial choice. Although to be fair, he did wear this in the 90's, where everyone's sartorial choices were questionable. 

Micheal Jordan, wearing a jacket from the Jordan Beyond collection, in a 1991 appearance on SNL.

Then we discovered this quote, from a story in GQ: “At one point I pushed for a less sporty sub-brand called Jordan Beyond. When Michael did SNL in ’91, he wore a Jordan beyond quilted green jacket. But I couldn’t make it happen. I’ve still got some samples, including a basketball shoe that was perforated like a wingtip.” - Nike's Tinker Hatfield

A basketball shoe that was perforated like a wingtip. Interesting.

For the sake of a good debate, general curiosity, and last week's 'pick of the week,' we'd like to know what you think of sports brands like Nike, trying to cross over into less athletic, more dressy/casual attire. Also, if they brought back the 'Jordan Beyond' sub-brand, would it sell?
