I’ve been pretty psyched. While work gets underway over at The Rake In Brief and an up coming revamp of the online edition, I managed to get contact with the press manager for Ariel and Shimon Ovadia– indeed the erstwhile designer brothers of the beautiful (and immensely affordable) collection of classic men’s looks, as it turns out, we’re in talks for an interview with The Rake. In other news, I was nominated for an addictive blog award by Sonya, the gorgeous blogger of Iconically Rare.

Ovadia & Sons Spring Summer 2013

Having just collaborated with J. Press for the Spring Summer sportswear collection of preppy Ivy League looks, the Brothers Ovadia have  returned yet another volley of slick looks that simply take the guesswork out of elegant smart casual combinations and business looks that are anything but staid- imagine Neal Caffrey but with a dash of whimsy. Looks like spring is going to get a little more interesting for the monsieur and if your workplace is of the stuffy, sombre variety, you could do well to incite a little rebellion with your larger than life personality care of Ovadia & Sons.
