The other night at Venice’s new hotspot Barnyard, I ran into pal Jamison Monroe, Jr., CEO and founder of Newport Academy, who excitedly showed off this photo of Jessie Hines and him at work one day, celebrating denim on denim back at the office. Who could blame him?
According to Jamison, “After a bit of a debate about whether denim was going to be an acceptable form of attire for the entire staff, denim won out and the next day we made it [Canadian Tuxedo] Day at Newport Academy.” Love it.
Jamison is pictured above in a Levi’s Vintage1955 Sawtooth Washed-Denim Shirt (I want to steal it) and Won Hundred jeans.
At least the one pictured above does. The Stuff Jewish Girls Like blogger was rocking this look last month on her Jewish Christmas: Forever 21 lace cutout chambray shirt and AG Cigarette Stilt Jeans. To see more Stuff Jewish Girls Like, click here.
Last week Zoe Saldana was spotted running around West Hollywood in a Canadian Tuxedo. The always fashion-forward star was doubled up in a denim Bella Dahl top and AG Adriano Goldschmied jeans, according to Coco Perez – that’s right Perez, we’ll do something you are never kind enough to do: give other bloggers credit where credit’s due.
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.
Reebok kicking off the New Year in style, and the best way we know how: denim on denim. Reebok is taking their Classic Leather sneaks and draping them in denim. These new styles are available now at select Reebok dealers.
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.
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.
