Larsson & Jennings’ bespoke is housed in a portable, interactive custom studio where customers can mix and match cases in polished gold, stainless steel or matte black with the brand’s selection of British and Swedish leather straps in a range of colourways to build a design perfectly suited to their special someone. The LJX personalization service is available exclusively in Larsson & Jennings retail stores including the 335 Bleecker Street New York location.

In addition to the LJX offering, customers can enjoy strap personalization on all new watch purchases. The monogramming is done by hand to ensure initials are applied with the utmost care in order to uphold the quality of the leather and is available online and in store.

Larsson & Jennings manufacturers in Switzerland using precision engineering for the highest quality. Locally sourced leather from Anglo-Swedish tanneries combine with hand-finished metals to deliver premium detailing and durability.

Marquez Distributors for Serico Hair Care

Each of the working directors has an entrepreneurial spirit and commercial acumen as well as their own unique skills which will see to the success of the brand and the company.

Personally, I have tried the Smooth and Repair Conditioner which smells not only amazing but also does immediately to repair and protect the hair and scalp from the rigours of everyday life without the need for harsh and unnecessary chemicals.

And if it’s for your man who doesn’t necessarily use fancy conditioner or shampoo because it makes them feel less manly maybe the Body and Boost Styler is more up their alley.

Hoodedwept

Screen Shot 2017-01-29 at 7.24.20 PM

Hoodedwept was conceived via a single philosophy:  That garmentry is one of the most powerful forms of communication we have. It is a fine-hewn balance of concept, art and functionality, allowing us to convey who we are, through what we wear. We encourage our wearer to approach clothing as a language, an avenue for expression and a medium for storytelling, transcending verbal dialogue.

Drawing from these cornerstone values of expression, freedom and the importance of story,  Hoodedwept works largely within a monochromatic palate placing an emphasis on unisex silhouettes and textural, ethically produced fabrics, providing a space for those who wish to explore their style and ideas beyond the norms of conventional fashion

One of our fave picks from this brand, that can be worn by male or female is the Blake Tiefe Funnel Top but also check out their other stuff.

Mr. Tom Ford

Tom Ford’s breakout role in the fashion world began in 1990 with Gucci, the iconic Italian fashion house. His work reinvented Gucci for a new era, and by 1994, as creative director, he was responsible for the design of everything from fashion to fragrance, advertising and store design. During the ten years that followed, sales increased from 0 million to almost a billion, making Gucci one of the largest and most profitable luxury brands in the world.

In 2004, tom ford left the Gucci group to form his own company and create the Tom Ford brand. Beauty and eyewear collection debuted in 2005, and his first flagship store, devoted to luxury menswear, opened to critical acclaim in new york city in 2006. A strategic and selective global expansion of the Tom Ford brand is in place to create more than 100 freestanding tom ford retail stores worldwide over the next ten years.
