Dress like Dr. Jones

Posted May 20th 2008 at 4:00PM by Josh Loposer

Good news for those of us who like to dress like a loose-cannon archaeologist who just got back from a trek through the African Savannah: the safari look is back. Ok, maybe it never quite left, but with the latest installment of the Indiana Jones movies hitting the big screen, safari fashion is roaring back into full force.

Designers are turning out all kinds of safari-inspired designs, decked out with all the unnecessary pockets, straps, and belt loops for the safari gadgets that you probably won't ever carry. Still, the look is rugged, military and functional -- 3 things that make you feel like a badass who can get through any kind of dangerous, life or death situation. Shouldn't fashion inspire confidence? Plus, we like any style that allows us to successfully incorporate a bull whip.

Harrison Ford blames earring on Jimmy Buffet, alcohol

Posted Feb 22nd 2008 at 5:24PM by Jonathon Morgan

Filed under: Celebrities with Style

Remember when Harrison Ford started sporting an earring about a decade after they were cool, and you sat there, staring at his photo, screaming: "YOU PLAYED HAN SOLO AND INDIANA JONES! Now this? Why, Harrison, WHY?"

It was a hard time for all of us. But maybe the unfortunate ear adornment wasn't entirely his fault -- apparently Ford only got it 'cause he was drunk.

Or at least, that's what he's telling Barbara Walters. As part of the actor's publicity bash for the new Indiana Jones movie, he's interviewed on the Barbara Walters Oscar Special this Sunday. He tells Barb that:
"after a somewhat indulgent lunchtime in celebration of either Jimmy Buffet or Ed Bradley's birthday. ...We shared a bottle of wine and I got enthusiastic about Jimmy and Ed's earrings and went out and got one right after lunch."
So there you go. Blame Jimmy Buffet. Blame the booze. Because getting an earring is lame -- but doing it on a dare because you were tanked is just the sort of behavior you'd expect out of an action hero. Rock on, Harrison -- you're A-OK in my book.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Sex Toys

Posted Feb 19th 2008 at 2:02PM by Whit Honea

Filed under: Haute Home, Accessories, Style in the News, Men, Celebrities with Style, Red Carpet Trends

With the Oscars upon us a young man's fancy turns to cinema. So does mine, and I'm guessing yours too. We can't help it. It lures us with its pretty people and its big screen magic.

Perhaps the hottest movie of the moment is one that won't be featured on Sunday, but rather this summer in the form of the latest Indiana Jones installment: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (trailer).

It's only natural that blockbuster movies make their way into everyday situations, be they language or fashion, and while you probably won't see the hat rocked as much as it should be, there is one movie tie-in that is sure to thrill everyone.

The Indiana Jones Sound FX Whip ($19.99) is intended for ages 6 and up. I'm going to guess the market will be somewhere in the "up" range. You see, while a whip that plays the theme from Raiders of the Lost Ark and makes authentic "whip sounds" has a certain appeal to six-year-olds, the real money is surely to come from a more adult crowd, one that crosses the lines of fanboy and S&M enthusiast.

I don't know that I'd buy my kids another weapon toy built to terrorize each other, but I'm not above pretending to buy my kids another weapon toy and taking it home to channel my inner-professor. You know, for fanboy purposes.

I have no love for nude hose

Posted Jul 30th 2006 at 9:54AM by Anne Metz

Filed under: Swimwear and Lingerie

It's a dilemma that plagues womankind: Is it better to go bare-legged or to wear hose?

The answer unfortunately depends on the circumstances. For instance, if you have a important business meeting to attend, nude hose are probably the way to go. But if it's something a little more casual -- like a cocktail party in the winter or a wedding on a chilly day, you're better off going bare-legged than subjecting other to the shiny-sausage casing abomination we know as nude hose.

Why do I say this? Well, the main reason is that I believe that nude hose look truly awful. Don't believe me? Well, how about:

1. Tess Megill in Working Girl

Good movie, Hunky Harrison Ford, but unforgivably bad 80s business fashions.

2. Jane Fonda's workout videos

Love her or hate her, no one can defend her work-out wear.


3. Sophia Petrillo from The Golden Girls

Don't get me wrong, I love The Golden Girls, but emulating retired-Floridan fashions is not something I can condone.
