A Look Inside J.Press York Street
I was in New York City a few weeks back and had a chance to walk inside the new J.Press York Street store located on 304 Bleecker Street. With the Brooks Brothers launch of their "Red Fleece" line, York Street seems to be in competition with a niche market for college themed ivy-esque clothes. You could pay the big bucks to outfit yourself here, or get the real thing (Think an O'Connells blazer with a 3/2 button configuration) at a thrift store for $5. The choice is yours!
Just an interesting point however, Ralph Lauren tried this with their 2004 launch of "Rugby, Ralph Lauren" and decided it simply wasn't profitable enough: all 15 of the Rugby stores closed down in February 2013. Possibly not the best indicator but who knows for sure... That being said, Daddy J.Press is a sweet spot in pretty much every traditionally dressing man's heart, so the new "youthful" York Street branch was worth checking out to see how it compares.

Latest Loot
Hit up a couple thrift stores last week, and came home with some good finds.
Always be on the lookout for off-season apparel. Just because you won't be able to wear it right away doesn't mean it's not a good investment!

Spring Fling
It's just about finals week so I apologize if I don't update as much in the next few days.
In the meantime, I though I'd share a few combinations that have worked well for me recently- mainly consisting of thrifted items!
