Stye Icon: Omari Hardwick (James St. Patrick) "Power"

Today I am looking at 50 Cent's new creation "Power," the new series on Stars, which is very promising. Ok, honestly I saw one episode of "Power" and it was interesting, but previewing other episodes, I know that the series can get a bit raunchy and I want to stay away from that because "you are what you absorb". There are great TV series out there, not including HBO or Stars, but FX (such as the Strain, and Tyrant), but why do great plots have to be raunchy?

Here's the plot. St. Patrick, also known as "Ghost" is a major drug figure  trying to get free from the game, but when he tries to leave the drug world by starting anew with the opening of his popular NYC nightclub. James is caught in a undertow when his two lives collide.

Anyway I want to look at Power's James St. Patrick's fashion. His new life becomes a rip tide when his drug persona clashes with his new way of life. James' fashion includes lots of three piece suits, which are very much in style this Fall/Winter '14. But you can catch him in beautiful shirt and blazer combinations. Of course everything looks better on man that looks like a model and is built like Arnold. I have to ask this question, "does the man make the clothes or doe the clothes make the man???" this is my major fashion universe conundrum. James's cool, calm and strong character complements his well structured suits which say I'M GETTING MY STUFF TOGETHER!





I love this shirt-blazer combination: a beautiful blazer but I wouldn't have thought to pair it with a blue shirt

Check out the shirt collar with the solid color tie

The Skinny



Ok, we love the skinny jeans, the skinny suits, the skinny-fit shirts, but what happened to the more ripped physic!?! Do women really don't care anymore about the "Arnold" abs...the Vin Diesel biceps? Where did all the "man" go? Why are men borderline anorexic? Okay we tried the skinny thing, lets get back to the sexy. Don't know where to go? Ask your girl what she thinks,... by the way "does this suit make me look fat?"

Hit the gym, okay too expensive? You have everything to get ripped at home. Workouts on-demand, treadmills, the  bowflex, dumbbells, jogs. You don't have to go as far as the insanity workout, but come on man!! It's time to let the skinny go/
