Filed under: Accessories, Celebrities with Style, Get the Look

limited edition Quantum of Solace Bond shades by Tom FordJust in time for the welcome arrival of springtime sunshine, and of course, the March 23rd Quantum of Solace DVD release -- you gotta love convenient marketing tie-ins -- the limited edition Tom Ford 007 shades Daniel Craig sported throughout the flick are now on sale. As it goes with most of Bond's attire, if you want to look like a secret agent for spring break, you're going to have to pony up like you've got an MI6 expense account.

Creepy Angelina Jolie doll has lots and lots of company

Filed under: Style in the News


So...remember that creepy but irresistible Angelina Jolie doll that Annie found on eBay? It was a little too lifelike, but also a little too idealized...basically we've been waiting to hear that it came to life and killed the guy (because it was a guy, right?) who bought it for £2,000.

Now the Daily Mail has a story on the artist, Noel Cruz. And guess what? There are more dolls. A lot more.

Sean Connery is the new old face of Louis Vuitton

Filed under: Handbags

When Louis Vuitton first launched their Keith Richards "Core Values" ads, we thought that they might be trying to make a connection between leathery skin and their fine leather luggage. Now, we get it. With age comes retirement, retirees travel -- hence they might want to blow their pension on a piece of LV luggage. That, plus the fact that the latest installment of James Bond films is hitting theaters this fall, must explain why Louis Vuitton picked Sean Connery to be their latest spokesperson.

Just in time to coincide with the premiere of Quantum of Solace, Louis Vuitton will be banking on the original James Bond's old time good looks. Connery was recently voted one of the "50 Sexiest Men Over 50" by the ladies at WowOwoW.com. Hmm, we think he kinda looks like a hairy leprechaun, but he should dress up nice in the LV campaign. Because, according to WWD, Annie Leibovitz was behind the lens, and we all know that she can work some photo magic.

Parke & Ronen: Men's classic swimwear

Filed under: Style in the News, Clothing, Swimwear and Lingerie, Men


Parke & Ronen make stylish swimwear for men that range from classic preppy to classic board short. Of their four basic types of suit, bikini, 4" swim, 8" swim and snap short, respectively, our favorite is the 8" swim. It's not that we don't care for the other options that they carry, we really do, but frankly, if we tried to wear any of the other styles onto the beach we'd most likely be arrested. Or at the very least ridiculed until we wound up under the pier in the fetal position.

They are for the fit. Daniel Craig fit, not second base on the Styledash softball/drinking team fit.

Daily Obsession: Bold prints

Filed under: Celebrities with Style, Daily Obsession


From Cameron Diaz to Fergie to Nicole Richie, celebrities know that the best way to steal the limelight on the red carpet is with this season's hottest style -- brightly colored, boldly patterned dresses.

Seriously, if prints are good enough for James Bond's girlfriend, they're good enough for us. Ever since we saw Daniel Craig's long term girlfriend, Satsuki Mitchell, in her stunning spring flower inspired dress we have been lusting after that style!

James Bond wept

Filed under: Style in the News, Clothing, Celebrities with Style

As a 00 agent, you've got to remain somewhat detached from you work. You can't get on with your everyday business if you're constant forming emotional attachments with people and causes. Tasks like destroying life and property may get easier with time -- but some of the things you're asked to do as a secret agent no man could ever get over.

For Daniel Craig, that unforgivable sin comes in the form of tearing up his beautiful Tom Ford suits. During the filming of the upcoming 007 thriller, Quantum of Solace, Craig had to destroy 40 of his favorite suits in the world -- and apparently it was weighing heavily on his conscience. According to him, it's a royal bummer: "it makes me weep every time... They are great suits."

I knew he was getting a little attached to the high end menswear a few months ago, but these new reports have really opened my eyes to one of the unseen hardships of making secret agent movies. Destroying even one Tom Ford suit has got to be the fashion equivalent to putting down Old Yeller.

James Bond only wears Tom Ford

Filed under: Men, Celebrities with Style

Whether you're an international man of mystery or a world famous actor, money is no object. So when you want a suit to look good, you make damn sure it does -- even if it means dropping $7,500 on something custom tailored by Tom Ford.

That's what Daniel Craig was wearing when he showed up at a recent photo shoot for GQ. He reportedly tried on all the embarrassingly expensive clothing the magazine's fashion department brought along -- but, in the end, decided to stick with the suit he'd chosen for himself.

It was probably a wise decision. Craig probably would have looked good in all the suits the GQ fashion crew picked out for him, but those months he spent wearing custom-made Brioni suits while filming Casino Royale probably made him a little spoiled. I know I would be.

Daniel Craig reveals his Achilles heel

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style

Daniel Craig's blond hair may have caused a whirlwind of controversy for Bond fans this year, but according to the actor, it isn't his hair he worries about -- it's the color of his eyes.

In an interview with People magazine, Craig disclosed that he fears his striking blue eyes are turning grey. He said, "Sometimes I think they are getting bluer, maybe. But maybe in 10 years' time they're going to go buoomph! And just go out, and that'll be it. Old grey eyes is back."

Craig was recently named the world's sexiest man by a Durex poll of 4,000 women. However, after hearing this ridiculous bit of man-vanity straight from the horse's mouth, I'm not quite so convinced he deserves the honor. Clooney, after all, would never have said something like that.

Guys, there are a few things you need

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style

There are always lists floating around as to what fashion staples women need to have. But today, we're going to cover the things that guys just should have around the house.

Apparently, I haven't been listening to the writers of this list (by MSN Lifestyle) though, as I only have half of the 10 items mentioned. Looks like I need to do some serious shopping.

Here are some things I need:
1. White oxford button-down shirt
2. Lightweight cashmere v-neck sweater
3. Sunglasses
4. One set of cedar shoe trees

Take note and you'll always be prepared to be Mr. Stylish (a.k.a. Daniel Craig, Esquire's "Best Dressed Man in the World"). I know I will be -- after my quick trip to the mall, of course.
