Last night outside of DJ Michelle Pesce‘s birthday party at The Dime, I spotted Gerald Gaunty in a G-Star shirt, Ralph Lauren chinos and John Varvatos shoes. If you’re in Los Angeles, you have to hit The Dime on Thursdays and see Hollywood’s hottest DJ do her thing. Does not disappoint.
Those Jonas Brothers sure love their denim. Kevin was seen last month at The Vote pre-grammy party in a Canadian Tuxedo.

It all comes full circle. I started this blog as a celebration of the double denim look, often condemned as a fashion faux pas. The first original image I ever posted was of this baby draped in denim, whom I spotted in the elevator at Target in West Hollywood. Fast forward 10 months, and who do I meet? A couple of guys, both with Levi’s, one of whom is a correspondent for denim blog powerhouse Denimology (!!!), in the very same elevator, rocking Canadian Tuxedos.
On the left is Thomas Rossi, Jr., in Levi’s Made for Craft jeans and Levi’s Vintage Clothing 1955 Sawtooth shirt. To the right is Darrrell Nobrega in a Levi’s Type 1 Trucker jacket and 520 taper jeans.
Thanks, guys! You made my week!
Another hour, another Canadian Tux at Coffee Commissary – a.k.a. Land of Denim. If you think I’m joking, I saw SIX Canadian Tuxedos in less than 2 hours there yesterday. Today, I had the pleasure of meeting Rheese Detrow, drummer in the band Dendelo, which just completed a new, yet-to-be-named album of raw/aggressive rock. Rheese is such a sweetheart; trying to imagine aggressive coming from him … I digress.
Anyway, Rheese is seen here in a vintage flannel-lined Levi’s jacket and LA-based Schaeffer’s Garment Hotel 15 oz. Japanese Denim jeans.
So many Aussies in double denim at Palihouse last weekend! Right after meeting Dion, I ran into Avishai Ungar of Picaholic.com fame in Levi’s jeans and a denim Zara top. Avishai and I had actually met several months before at the VirtualSx event at The Roosevelt. As a result, our conversation got pretty interesting very quickly last Saturday.
Aussie Dion Agius was rocking the double denim last night at Palihouse in West Hollywood. The surfer/photog is seen here in a vintage jacket Globe button up and Globe jeans.
Here is Bill “Smitty” Smith, drummer in the band Truth & Salvage Co., rocking out in a Canadian Tuxedo (Gap jacket and Levi’s jeans) at The Spare Room in the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. Truth & Salvage can be seen at the Troubadour on March 24 at their farewell show before they relocate the band to Nashville. With indie denim powerhouse Imogene + Willie putting out some of the best double denim looks, we think Smitty will feel right at home.
I had the pleasure of seeing the enchanting songstress Rosa Pullman last night at The Spare Room. Loving her spin on the Canadian Tuxedo. Here she is in a girlie cropped Levi’s jacket and Garcia G. jeans. Click here to see a video of her recording “Mud and Rain.”
I’m a terrible blogger! Been sitting on this image for weeks now. Here is my new pal, Brandon Gabriel, draped in denim as we pre-game in Studio City (yeah that’s right – I hit the valley from time -to-time). Brandon is ready to roll in his favorite G-Star Raw from head to toe.
That's one dope ass Canadian Tuxedo
