Seven Days of Style: Toy Gifts for Your Boy

Filed under: Accessories, Men

toy gifts for your boyDon't do it. Don't put you and your boy through the same torture again this year. Yes, the torture of the Christmas sweater. Hey, you may have better taste than kelly green one with reindeer applique, but still, how many charcoal/merino wool/v-neck/crewneck/cardigan sweaters does he really need?

Right.

So in order to save you both that pain, we've put together a quick list of gifts that you can tolerate and are still toys that the boys will truly love. And by "boys," I mean any male between the ages of 1 and 101.

Sunday - You would love to get him an Enzo, you really would, but unfortunately, you've spent that cool million on some hot shoes. Go with the next best thing to a Ferrari, the Acer Ferrari laptop.

Monday - Babydoll, you've got connections. You know people. Use your juice to score a Playstation 3 for your boy. In my opinion, the PS3's casing is the closest thing you're going to get to your little black dress.

Tuesday - If he's a mature gentleman who enjoys a glass of good whiskey, the Pioneer Pure Malt Speakers are a great gift, without making you an enabler. The speakers are made from recycled 50-year-old white oak whiskey barrels.

Red is the ticket

Filed under: Clothing

Yesterday, I learned that those signs posted above intersections that exclaim "Photo-Enforced" aren't just a joke. And in honor of receiving this mailed-to-your-door citation, we're going to celebrate the color red (which means STOP!). Yes, red can be quite the "Hey, look at me!" color, but with proper taste, it can be worn (and accessorized) with success.

Here's a few ways to porte le rouge and look darn good. This cashmere crewneck sweater from Polo, which, I admit, is beyond the typical budget. But hey, it's slick. (And they say it's "saffron heather," not red. The color is very similar to that red light that I ran, however). And this old-school English tie from J. Crew sure is red, yet still classy.

And finally, this Ferrari-branded laptop computer. It's not completely red, but the mere mention of Ferrari screams red. (Somehow I don't think I've learned my lesson.)

So watch out for those intersection cameras. They even send you a picture of you driving through the intersection, so hopefully you'll now know to be wearing red.

Formula One shoes

Filed under: Accessories, Clothing, Shoes

Nascar may or may not be cool, as I opined in a previous post.

But Formula One? Michael Schumacher? Ferrari? C'mon people -- F1 is totally, totally hot. And especially the shoes, a style I like to think of as "moon boots meet Capezios". You've got velcro straps, a non-slip sole and a mid-ankle height. What more could you want?

Adidas makes a great F1 shoe called the adi Racer. Puma (the shoe of the Mighty Schumacher), in turn, has the Future Cat. Even Nike makes a Formula One shoe.

Will they make you cooler? Definitely. And they'll definitely, definitely help you avoid slipping should any oil leak onto the tarmac.

Spyker goes stylish for bikers

Filed under: Accessories

Swedish automaker Spyker is known for designing cars with exotic, sexy lines and an aggressive stance, but you don't have to be a car buff with a few hundred thousand dollars to blow in order ride in style... if you don't mind breaking a sweat, that is.

Spyker has teamed up with Koga, a company known for its distinctive bicycles, to produce the Aeroblade. The bicycle sports many of the same materials used to produce the ultra-luxury vehicles that serve as the model's namesake --titanium for the frame, aluminum for the front fork and wheels, aluminum-covered carbon composite for the mudgaurds, and Hulshof luxury leather for the handle bar grips and saddle. Even the colors are inspired by those adorning the automaker's endurance race car.

Exclusivity comes at a price of $12,540 with only 50 units produced.

Ferrari notebook offers F1 technology, Ferrari style

Filed under: Accessories

Ferrari is the epitome of the exotic car. It's best known for its high-performing, exotic-looking, ass-kicking supercars -- descriptions Acer is hoping will carry over along with the brand name adorning its new notebooks. The leading notebook producer for EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and sponsor of racing team Scuderia Ferrari have introduced the new Ferrari 5000 and Ferrari 1000 series, two notebooks incorporating the technology usually only found in the world of Formula One racing. A carbon fiber casing encloses an AMD Turion 64 X2 Mobile processor and comes with several options, including a web cam, HD-DVD drive, Acer VoIP Bluetooth phone connectivity, and more. And, most importantly, the laptops are available in black and "Ferrari red."
