Everything!
The Proust Questionaire (Marcellas-style)!
The Proust Questionnaire is a fixture on the back page of Vanity Fair magazine. Who is Proust and what’s with all the questions you may ask? He’s a writer, gossip and legendary raconteur. Simply put, a gay icon. Click here for a more in-depth description of Proust and the start of his questionnaire.
What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Hanging with friends, talking and laughing. Sleeping in my own bed with my bills paid.
Stylish: The Musical!
Music is everywhere. It’s a part of everything we do. It’s blaring from the cars cruising down the street. It’s drifting from the powder room as your boyfriend sings in the shower. It’s the best part of our favorite TV shows like Ugly Betty and Glee (hell yeah I’m a proud Gleek)! These days who isn’t toting around their iPod, computer, MP3 player and even phone while grooving to their fave tunes. As Miss Grace Jones sings we ‘work to the rhythm, live to the rhythm, love to the rhythm‘. We’re all slaves to the rhythm!
Happy Green New Year!
The Holidays are blissfully over. You have eaten and spent too much. Your New Year resolutions probably have something to do with more time in the gym and more money in the bank. Normally I’m a huge proponent of luxe. In 2009 I told you about the newest sports cars, a $15,000 chandelier and of course every gorgeous stitch sewn by Dolce & Gabbana, D Squared, Ralph Lauren, John Varvatos… Well the list is endless! I’m starting the year turning a new leaf (at least for one month). This month I’m going super green and I’m telling you how to clean up your act and give yourself a facial at home! With common ingredients found at your local grocery store no less!
Marcellas Style! Part Deux
I’ve been very good lately. I’m at a great place in the evolution of my wardrobe where I don’t need a thing (other than dropping 10 lbs). I know myself and my personal style very well. No more futzing with silly trends or adopting personae that feel like a costume. I’m a suit and a blazer boy. I like dressing like a man. I like an expensive watch, good shoes by Paul Smith & John Varvatos, pocket squares & bow ties. I like vintage western shirts, Daftbird tees, Earnest Sewn custom made jeans, G Shock & Nixon watches & old school trainers. And I love a trench coat. I like my pants boot cut, blazers double vented and love shirts with tuxedo detailing. See, I know what I like, what suits me and it makes shopping very easy.
So here’s the list of what’s going and coming:
Black Ted Baker “Hake” Calfskin Lace-up (a bargain at $170)
Marcellas Style!
I’m starting a new feature on my blog. I’m documenting my purchases. Maybe this is a way to stop myself from spending every dime I have? Or maybe it’s an opportunity to make smarter choices? Or maybe it’s part of the process of building my wardrobe? Hopefully it will be fun. And not tedious for the reader. It’s also gonna be a wish list: what I want, what I need, what needs to go and of course what’s next.
