Lit Looks!

With summer coming to a close and school back in session, it’s time to hit the books again. Or perhaps if you’re like me, you never stopped reading. You may have picked up book after book after book, immersed yourself in fantastical worlds, swooned over poetic language and fell head over heels for the courageous protagonists. Perhaps you felt a kindred spirit with your favorite heroine and thought to yourself, “How can I channel this character?” It’s okay, I’ve done it too. The idea of bringing our favorite fictional characters to life is what makes reading so fun. Of course, what better…

NamaSTAY in Bed…

Yep, this was what I used to think at the mention of yoga in my presence – NamaSTAY in bed. I have always HATED working out. I danced throughout my whole childhood (ballet, jazz, acro), but as teenager and adult I was more about the fries and big macs than the jumping jacks. It’s not like I never tried, believe me I have. I tried running and it makes my heart feel like it’s going to jump out of my chest and I also kind of want to kill myself the entire time I’m doing it. I took a Pilates class once…

New From Elini Barokas: The Arena Chronograph

The term arena dates back to the Colosseum of Ancient Rome as the central area of this amphitheater, where gladiators fought rugged duels to their death. The term is derived from the Latin word Harena, meaning for a place of combat, originally a fine and smooth sand used to absorb blood that was shed during the gruesome competitions. An arena is defined today as an enclosed area, either oval or circular in shape, used to hold sporting, musical or theatrical events. It is also defined as a sphere or scene of intense activity. The new Elini Barokas Arena Chronograph debuting…

Modern Times

Pace-setting modern wristwatches for both men and women have been at the fashion forefront since Movado introduced the Museum Watch in 1947. With streamlined Bauhaus inspired styling created by artist Nathan George Hewitt, the Movado Museum watch defined modern timepieces for many decades. The original watch featured an ultra-slim and perfectly round case in polished yellow gold presented on a black lizard strap. The iconic dial featured only two slender gold-tone finished sword hands and a single round dot accent at the 12 o’clock hour on a black background. A sweeping second hand and hour marker indicators were absent on…

Cuff Love…

Watches Fit For Cuffs

Wearing one of today’s uber-thick wristwatches may pose a problem if you’re like most guys who wear long sleeve shirts with cuffs that button at the wrist. The average width of the cuff of a non-bespoke shirt is anywhere from 8 to 11 inches, even if you use the first button on the sleeve cuff, which will allow you a drop more room. You could opt to wear a dress shirt with French cuffs that do require cuff links to close the sleeves and may offer a bit more room on your wrist. However, French cuff shirts with cuff links have…
