MEN'S CAMEL COATS

Camel Coats are not only trending for women this season, men are also wearing this latest trend. A must have for the Fall/Winter season - from the trench coat to the long blazer this is an essential piece for your wardrobe. The color is neutral so you can match it up with several items: you can dress the camel statement coat in a casual way with some jeans, a white tee and some sneakers, or you can also wear this coat to the office over your suit!

You can find coats like this at your local  Zara, Macy's, H&M, and also asos.com

So fellas grab one of these statement camel coats for the winter and all eyes will be on you!

Acclaimed Chi-Town producer Thelonius Martin doesn't disappoint with his latest release Wünderkid. The album offers 15 tracks with guest verses from Mac Miller, Ab-Soul, Smoke DZA, Curren$y, Domo Genesis, RetcH, and more. Standout of mine is the track "September" which has a very nice Jonwayne sound. Check it out below!

While downtown restauranteurs such as Danny Meyers are still trying to figure out how to enter the Harlem market, uptown's own celebrity chef Marcus Samuelsson has announced that he will open another venture on FDB/8th Avenue within the next few months. This new eatery is described as a kitchenette called Streetbird Rotisserieand will debut within the long vacant corner commercial space at 2149 Frederick Douglass by the 116th Street subway stop. Our first choice for more formal dining in Harlem has always been Red Rooster on Lenox Avenue but having a more affordable regular spot by one of the top chefs in the world is something we will take over Shake Shack any day. More news definitely to come in the following weeks, so stay tuned!
