Someone needs to call Miss Lawrence and Derek J, because this Pageant Queen needs some fashion advice. STAT.
Tonight on one of my guilty pleasures – the Real Housewives of Atlanta, we met the pageant director above, who showed up to a meeting in that not-so-dope Canadian Tux.
Thank God for Lawrence, who appeared later in the episode to show the world how to rock the double denim – with heels. Work.
It’s no secret that Angelenos love their coffee and their denim, so it’s not a surprise I always spot a great Canadian Tux when I hit the Coffee Commissary on Fairfax. Of the four I saw there today, photographer Dan Collopy was definitely rocking the best one. Pictured above, outside of Lindy & Grundy, Dan is in a denim shirt and waxed jeans, both by H&M.
Madonna’s Material Girl, Lourdes Leon, was spotted at JFK in some 90s-inspired double denim, complete with Dr. Martens high tops.
Just minutes before entering a place more bizarre than that bar in Star Wars, the set of Let’s Make A Deal (don’t ask), I quickly spotted the only other Canadian Tux through a sea of middle-aged lunatics dressed as babies, clowns and jail birds. To my left is musician Cody Digerolamo head to toe in Levi’s. I’m in 7 For All Mankind jeggings, an Arnold Zimberg shirt, Stetson hat and Wet Western.
Seriously, kids. Don’t do drugs: just go on this show. It’s much better.
UPDATE: I did not make a deal.
Last week, I had the pleasure of checking out Adler Integrated‘s new digs on Sunset at their Holiday Office Open House. Of course I wasn’t surprised to see a stylish Canadian Tuxedo in such a cool office space. Seen here is Jonny Kaufman Levi’s vest and H&M jeans. You can follow Jonny on Instagram here.
Like father like sons! David Beckham recently sat court side with his adorable boys, two of whom were draped in denim. His younger boys Cruz and Romeo looked super stylish in their Canadian Tuxedos, perhaps channeling their dad from a few years back …
After an amazing dinner at SUGARFISH, my friend, Nick, and I decided to grab a nightcap and happened upon Bar Toscana across the street in Brentwood. I knew it was going to be a great night when we snagged the last two seats at the bar next to this guy draped in denim. After a couple of incredible cocktails, handcrafted by some charming Italian mixologist, my new friend still wouldn’t let me post his name, but he did allow me to snap this photo of him in a Hurley denim shirt and Guess jeans.
Last week, while out celebrating Obama’s reelection, I met Amira Day at my favorite watering hole, The Dime on Fairfax in Los Angeles. Amira is seen here in a Zara jacket, Marc Jacobs tank and H&M jeans.
Reese Witherspoon is no stranger to the Canadian Tuxedo, and she was seen in yet another double denim ensemble while out last week with her newborn son, Tennessee Toth.

On Tuesday night I had the pleasure of meeting another Columbus ex-pat at Footsie’s in Los Angeles. I’ve written several items about how much people from Columbus, Ohio love their Canadian Tuxedos (one fan has even proposed we change the name to “Columbuxedo“). So, it was no surprise, when multi-instrumentalist Brad Caulkins strolled in rocking the double denim. Brad is seen above in a vintage Big E Levi’s jacket, a family heirloom from the early 50s which once belonged to his cousin, who died wearing it in motorcycle accident. Brad’s also wearing A.P.C. jeans.
That's one dope ass Canadian Tuxedo
