Favorite Five: Billy Reid Fall 2013

 Billy Reid Menswear Fall 2013 Fashion Week New york Runway coach launch premier buy sell purchase models

Billy Reid rocked out a bit with his Fall 2013 collection, revealing that southern charm may also come with elegant rebelliousness. Leather jackets are inside layers, silky fabrics are paired with woolen ones, orange and reds burst around beige and cream. You’ll also notice some sharp looking bags in the hands of the models. It’s ok if they draw your attention—they’re the first glimpses of the Fall 2013 limited edition collaboration between Coach and Billy Reid.

 

Favorite Five

  • BILLY REID Fall/Winter 2013 Men's and Women's Runway Show
    Three parts classic gentleman, One part sporty-nouveau.
  • BILLY REID Fall/Winter 2013 Men's and Women's Runway Show
    The blazer can be dressed up or dressed down,or worn both ways at once, especially with black fringe loafers and a brown croc bag.
  • BILLY REID Fall/Winter 2013 Men's and Women's Runway Show
    It's a cool, streamlined classic look that's made completely hot and today with hints of bright red.
  • BILLY REID Fall/Winter 2013 Men's and Women's Runway Show
    There's texture for miles but we can't stop staring at that bag.
  • BILLY REID Fall/Winter 2013 Men's and Women's Runway Show
    Silky sheen and matte wool might not make obvious bedfellows, but what's fun about being obvious?

Coach Hugo Guinness

Portage: Hugo Guinness for Coach Limited Edition Series Part Two

Coach Hugo Guinness

If you’re not familiar with the whimsical series of bags, wallets, passport holders, ect that London born, Brooklyn based artist Hugo Guinness (and  cousin of one Daphne Guinness) has crafted with Coach, then get so here. The artist, known for his poppy linocut prints, has created a treasure trove of witty leather accessories (rhinos, power cords, paper airplanes, headphones!) that will only be available from now through the holiday season. Perfectly unique for gifting, though also special enough that you may just end up keeping. We won’t judge. Check the collection, and a special behind the scenes video of Hugo Guinness explaining his inspiration after the jump.

17 BAGS OF SUMMER

We like to think of travel bags just as we do cars. Laugh if you will, but just like a car, you’re holding the strap (steering wheel), everyone’s looking at what you’re sporting (and, whether they say it or not, judging you by it), plus it has to fit, comfortably, some precious cargo (your stuff). Selecting the perfect bag takes work and means commitment. With that in mind, we invite you to click through to our selection of weekend warrior bags—bags that should be able to get you through anything from 24 hour jaunt to at least two days time away from your pad. Maybe you’ll find the “one” or maybe you’ll find a “few”. We found 17 that we’d have no problem working into our summer travel regimen.

  • LA PORTEGNA

    LA PORTEGNA

    This small Spanish company that hand-makes all their bags really kills it when it comes to handsome men's bags.

The vegetable dyed leather will age with grace and its got two inside pockets.
