Steal These Looks For Fall: THE BAND

Thanks to a tweet from ACL a few weeks back, THE BAND has made it onto the STEAL THESE LOOKS list.

THE BAND has to be one of the best American groups of all time and if you watch THE LAST WALTZ, you will find that even after an insane amount of drug and alcohol abuse these guys still played and harmonized with well oiled precision. It boggles the mind.

As for their style they encompass a Fall day in Colorado mixing heavy tweeds with boots, vests, and scarves. They always wore very American gear but in a well fitted, rock and roll style. They looked like the cool substitute English teachers you always got that smoked pot with you after class.

If you have never seen THE LAST WALTZ, cue it here:

A Peacoat For The Fall

This fall if you invest in a new coat, make it the Old Navy Peacoat. I found one at my local O.N. and fell in love with it’s trim cut, warm wool, neck belt, and soft lining. At only $79.50 this is a coat will give you years of wear and way more bang for your buck.

Swatch Goes Automatic

I love watches. I love watches a lot. Even more so I love Automatic watches. Even more than that I love ridiculous Chrono Automatic Watches in the vein of James Bond.

So it is with great pleasure to be one of the first to introduce you guys to the Swatch AutoChrono line. Now, these do cost as much as one Indochino suit but for a chrono with automatic movement that is Swiss made that is a real steal. I mean…it’s a Swatch (not too stuffy), it has self winding movement (nice to drop that in when showing it off), and it’s under $500 (recession friendly).

The reason why I also endorse these watches are because they can go with the suit AND the jeans/t-shirt/leather jacket. This is the pocket knife of watches. An all in one, multifunctional beauty that you never have to buy a battery for or wind up every 8 hours. You’ll never need to by another watch…except maybe a formal one.

These beauties will also make for a great Holiday present. Ladies, if you are out there, get one of these for your man this holiday season. It will make him smile.

The Swatch AutoChrono will be available on October 15th, 2009.
