Lapel Pin

Lanvin Lapel Pin $99

I came across this a while back and wasn't crazy about it, but the other night I was watching Sports Center and D. Wade was doing a post-game interview and was sporting this carnation lapel pin from Lanvin and it looked really good. He wore it with a white dress shirt and a solid black button up cardigan. It was the perfect amount of detail to a simple and very well put together outfit.

Collar Stays

A vary small but important accessory that is essential in your wardrobe is the collar stays. I hate it when I wear a dress shirt and the collar falls flat. To prevent this from happening, invest in some collar stays. There are two kinds: the metal ones and the plastic ones. Personally, I don't like the metal ones because they are too obvious. The plastic ones keep your collar nice and stiff and are not noticeable. Pick up a set soon, but remember to take them out of your shirts before your dry clean.

Luggage

Now that we are fast on our way to summer, its time to bust out your luggage for those warm weather vacations. If you don't have any quality pieces, your in luck. Tumi is running a 40% special. I picked this piece up a few months back and I love it. It is very light, but still very durable. Also, it has four wheels, so you can easily push/pull it. Travel in style.

Cedar

containerstore.com $9.99

Many people do not realize that insects destroy clothes. The best way to stop this from happening is investing in cedar hangers. Cedar wood repels insects that eat away at clothing, as well as making your closet look very organized and clean. No more metal or plastic hangers. They not only ruin your clothes but they don't stop bugs from doing it either. Protect your investment.

Hotel Costes

Available on iTune $10.99

This CD comes from a boutique hotel in Paris, the Costes, and they put out a CD every year. My uncle turned me onto it and ever since I can not stop listening. They have 14 CDs so far, but avoid the 'best of' CDs because they don't flow very well.
