Razor and Serene Rose should be reopened on Wednesday

As you can tell, we're taking longer than expected to finish the renovation. We should be reopened on Wednesday, September 15.

DeathHippie, Long Sleeves

We have a new selection of DeathHippie tees. DeathHippie is based out of Brooklyn. Each shirt is hand treated after its printed, so no two shirts are alike!

Totonnos, One of the Best Brooklyn Pizzas, has reopened.

Just wen't to Totonnos for the first time since the fire. It was as perfect as always. The place was as charming as always and Neptune Ave is still the same, a dump.

Totonnos and diFara's are the only two great, old-time Brooklyn pizza places that are still around. (At least that I know about.)

L&B's is still good but doesn't, in my opinion, qualify as great. New places such as Lucali's in Carroll Gardens are excellent too but they lack the history.

I fear that when Dominic at diFara's passes on that diFara's will be no longer. Totonnos is one of the places that should remain for another generation.

For you out-of-towners here's a negative review:

"Like a big tortilla chips with chesse and sauce. More garlic than bread, and more sauce exists in a ketchup pack. If this is the way pizza was made in the good ole' days, destroy the time machines now."

Pizza, at it's best, is a sublime blend of a tasty, chewy AND crispy dough; delicious tomato sauce and mozzeralla. (I like it best with fresh basil.) If one of the three overwhelms the other then the TASTE experience is diminished.

Clip on Bow Ties versus Tie Your Own

I just had a discussion regarding clip-on bow ties and when, if ever, they can be worn. I feel that anytime you are in an formal, elegant setting you should NEVER, NEVER wear clip-on ties. However, if you are matching up a bow tie with a whimsical outfit: cut-off sleeves and suspenders with shorts and boots (for example) and walking around town then a clip-on tie is fine.

Just make certain that Scott Shuman is there to immortalize your look in The Sartorialist.

How to take care of linen

Linen is notorious for wrinkling, and in an odd way, that's part of its charm. Casual linen pieces can be washed at home in the washer and dryer, and is recommended, because the more linen is washed, the softer, more absorbent and more luminous it becomes.

For the most part linen jackets, suits, and dresses should be dry cleaned to keep their inner construction (facings, lining, shoulder pads, etc.) intact. And dry cleaning restores linen's crisp shape and finish.

However before you wash linen be sure to check the label to see if it is mixed with other fibers; always iron linen when it is damp; and finally avoid folding linen as the wrinkles are unsightly and very hard to remove.

Skinny Jeans

We've been getting a lot of questions regarding skinny jeans, namely is this a fashion trend that's going to continue or it fading away?

Skinny jeans are here to stay for quite some time, if by skinny jeans you mean a slim fit as opposed to 1990s baggy jeans. If you have a muscular build you needn't wear jeans that are called skinny. What counts is the fit; the slim profile where there is little extra fabric around the leg.
