Notable Collaboration: Public School x Killspencer’s Sexy Leather Bags
Public School keeps killing it.

What To Get From 2014 CFDA Fashion Award Winners Public School And Tim Coppens
The Oscars of the fashion here in the states, the annual CFDA Fashion Awards went down last night where Rihanna of course was the showstopper for her sheer, custom fishnet dress that was covered in Swarovksi crystals. She shined bright like a diamond (you see what I did there), and was rightfully awarded the Fashion Icon award.
On the designer awards side of things, award winners of the night included Joseph Altuzarra for Altuzarra (Womenswear Designer of the Year), Mary-Kate Olsen & Ashley Olsen for The Row (Accessories Designer of the Year Award), Shane Gabier & Christopher Peters for Creatures of the Wind (Swarovski Award for Womenswear) and Irene Neuwirth (Swarovski Award for Accessory Design).

Street Style: The Wool Factor
In this street style feature for Out magazine, I capture fellow menswear blogger, Freddy Rodriguez of Blue Perk in Washington Square Park. Freddy dons a double turtleneck, with a Uniqlo sweater in his signature color, and tops it with a weather-appropriate wool blazer from American Eagle. His accessories add extra edge to the look: a black and gold hook bracelet from Giles & Brother, an olive tote from do-gooder brand Able Made in collaboration with Public School.
