This ones for the Boys...
(COMPLETLEY forgot today was Friday!! Sorry everyone!! Where did my day's go?!)
This week I was inspired by sexy Men. That's right, I said SEXY MEN! So, while we all have our different tastes in Men, and what makes them sexy, this is one that I find particularly yummy. Add a little scruff and a subtle cologne, and YUM!!! (OK, drooling over here!)
So, normally my Friday's Find's are for women because, well, I am a woman, but this week I thought I would switch it up a bit. Men need some great Fashion too, and I really had some fun with this one. I found an awesome shop that makes BEAUTIFUL suits, some fun and funny Tee's, these AWSOME shoes by a very talented artist, a recycled and very cool belt buckle (I have a thing for guys with cool belt buckles), one of the few, OK, actually literally the ONLY pair of handmade jeans I like and the only jeans PERIOD I liked on Etsy, and a sexy Fedora. (Can I just say by the way how much I love the fact that the Fedora has made a comeback?! Really, LOVE it!)
I'm a total fan of the 1920's through 1940's styles, both Men and Women's. I miss the overcoats and the hats Men used to wear. I miss when people used to put thought into their clothes. It meant something to look nice. Now, I grew up a child of Grunge, and still love it, but I really love the way the Modern man has learned to combine certain elements. I've always loved the Chucks or Van's with a suit, and the Tee with a Sport Coat or Blazer. I've combined all those elements here in a fun, grown up, sexy way. So, all you boys still waiting to turn into Men, take a peek! You don't have to lose ALL your boyish charm to be a Man!

From Left to Right:
Whodini Denim from Whodini Handmade: "We are all on the search for those custom jeans that whisper, "I am one of a kind."
Now you can have them with all the bells and whistles.
All seams are sewn with industrial machines and high quality threads.
Pockets (front and back) can be made to order.
Dark Blue Japanese denim can be over dyed to give a tie dye look. All denim is pre-laundered and pre-shrunk.
Metal zipper closure with denim style button at waist band."
I have said it before, and I will say it again, finding good jeans on Etsy is next to impossible! These were literally the only Men's ones that I found that I liked. Luckily I actually really liked them! I love that these are great jeans that are handmade!

Tattoo Inspired and Custom Designed Shoes from Inkwear 99: "These are custom fit (your size) and custom designed shoes. Tell us what kind of design you want and we will make them especially for you. They are tattoo inspired. They are made out of a canvas upper and manmade balance. Each pair of shoes is designed for you and what you want. They are designed with a techno pen and cleared for more durability. These are definitely fair weathered shoes. The design will last as long as you take care of them. No puddle jumpers, no snow. They do have a protective clear over the design, but again no puddle jumping. No Boundaries is the manufacturer. Prices may vary depending on the design."
These shoes are incredible, and even better is that this is a family run Business in which the whole family participates! I LOVE that!! Kudos to Inkwear 99 for an awesome and original family business!

Falcon from Cha Chas House: "Charcoal, Felt, Stingy Fedora with Plaid Ribbon Trim. This style was made for Justin Timberlake on his "Bringing Sexy Back" Tour."
I love this Fedora, it's absolutely beautiful! Cha Chas House has a couple more that I was really taken with too!

LICENSE PLATE BUCKLE VINTAGE METAL MOSAIC from Randi Tan: "Modern art to wear.
These recycled-metal belt buckles are my original design. All of the small pieces are cut from old, retired and vintage license plates with heavy metal shears and clamps.
This colorful mosaic-like silver belt buckle is inlaid with 'tiles' of recycled license plate metal. The metal pieces are measured, cut, hammered, and filed to create a unique, and distressed style buckle. Each bit of license plate edge is filed and sanded before being artfully arranged, and cemented into place on the buckle.
I am all about the beauty and textures of aged and painted metal so I would never cover that up with a plastic lacquer coating. You will be able to feel the actual ridges and bumps impressed on the metal, but I have eliminated all sharp edges. As a final step the buckles are hand waxed, and buffed, multiple times, to preserve their beauty. Will take a 1.5" - 1.75" snap-on belt (not included, but available in my shop).
This listing is for the buckle pictured. Each of my buckles is different. Some have reflective pieces. Some have numbers or letters. All are a mix of colors. I have sold these buckles to men and to women."
Randi makes some awesome belt buckles!! I have a thing for belt buckles and I loved this one! I actually want it for myself! :) Even more, I love the fact that recycled license plates are used, that is AWSOME!!

Tailored Blazer--Custom Made for Your Secret Identity from Machete-N-Sons: "Here is an example of a custom blazer that we made for a customer.
The lining is shocking. Conceal or reveal your inner colors.
You will be able to choose from dozens of suiting's from quality wool to hip and techy poly. We will send you SWATCH CARDS with 25-30 possible lining fabrics from desert mesas to exploding palm trees.
