If you are new to this MESH. thing, first let me say welcome.

Second, what took you so long?

Third, Tom Ford is one of my favorite designers (so just keep that in mind as you join the MESH. family)

Check out his new eyewear campaign.

And here he is talking to GQ about the fashion world and the film industry (two loves of mine).

Tom Ford is my favorite designer. The tailoring of his suits are impeccable, the style of his eye-wear is sickening and the refreshingly appropriate sleaze of his ads is intriguing. His designs command sophistication, sex appeal, and attention. Enter the world of Tom Ford.

Here’s a tidbit about my life: Tom Ford is one of my favorite designers.

And now here’s some silk bow ties from his line.

Gentlemen, it should already be apparent how wearing a bow tie effectively can make you look. Above all, it will force others to take you seriously as well as showcase your keen sense of style and elegance.

You want to be taken seriously right?

Summer is known for the birth and death of many trends. One summer trend that’s easy to pick up is through those handy little protectors from the sun, sunglasses. This summer, shades have become just as essential as the outfit they are paired with and this summer, it’s all about shades you can see through. Not literally, but the transparent framework for shades is a definite go for these months of heat and fun. Here are a few looks.

ME! Okay, not really but kinda. 

My favorite designer (Tom Ford) is trying to be a photographer like yours truly. He decided to shoot his recent campaign himself.

“Fashion advertising lately has become very complex in terms of production, and I think that often, in these dense, heavily art directed campaigns, that the clothes seem to get lost a bit,” said Ford. “I wanted to create clean, straightforward shots of a handsome man in beautifully cut clothes. Simple, clear, and fresh.”

Get ‘em Tom!

If life were how it should be. I would be rich. Actually no, money equates to nothing. However, money can get you the essentially non-essential things you want in this lifetime. Things that include suits and glasses designed by Tom Ford, iconic frames designed by Oliver Peoples, boots made by Red Wing Shoe Company, and a sweater by Yigal Azrouel.
Things that [when you glance at the prices] will make you say…Damn! I’ve GOT to get my bread up. and soon.

Tom Ford.
