Double denim at Starbucks on Melrose

While grabbing coffee this morning, I spotted yet another incredible double denim ensemble. Here is Costume Designer Mark Avery looking dapper in a Levi’s Big E denim jacket and Jean Shop jeans.

My Bravo week continues! Tonight I had the extreme pleasure of meeting Brad Goreski’s assistant, Thomas Phillips, in a Canadian Tuxedo at the Tiny Bandit‘s Sample Sale at the Palihouse in West Hollywood.  Thomas was looking super adorbs in a Billy Reid denim shirt, Missoni top and Levi’s jeans. We know how much his Canadian-fashion-God boss loves the double denim, so it was no surprise to see Thomas representing in the most stylish of ways. Brad, if you’re reading this: We love you.


Double Double Denim in West Hollywood

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 Canadian Tuxedo at Coffee Commissary

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.


More Double Denim at Palihouse

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.


More double denim at The Spare Room

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.


Spotted: Rosa Pullman in Canadian Tuxedo at the Roosevelt

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.”

So much double denim at the Levi’s Store on Union Square in San Francisco, I kinda didn’t know what to do.

Double, double denim on Seinfeld

Not one, but TWO Canadian Tuxedo sightings on “The Outing” episode of Seinfeld.  … Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
