The Miami Heat BIG THREE Celebrate Championship Victory in comfortable Street Style at Club LIV


The day finally came when LeBron got his ring and with great accomplishments comes great celebration. Miami Heat superstars Dwayne Wade, LeBron James & Chris Bosh better known as "The Big Three" along side their teammates, family and friends all celebrated at popular night sport Club LIV located at Fountain Bleu Hotel on Miami South Beach last night. The stars arrived shortly after 3am with a large entourage including Heat Owner Micky Airson. LeBron was seen drinking out of a 15-liter bottle of Ace of Spades champagne … (good thing he didn't throw it) which usually runs around $75k. During the night LeBron grabbed the mic and rapped along with the music all night in celebration as D. Wade & bunch of his teammates puffed away on cigars. 


For this occasion the popular ballers were not seen in their usual suits, dimpled ties and wingtips. They all kept in cool, calm and collective as they celebrated throughout the night in comfortable street style.  For the socialites and attending fans rumor has it that the price at the door started off at $100 and jumped to $1,000 for entry as the celebration continued till after 6am.


LeBron wore a “vampire t-shirt” made of his face similar to the Givenchy tee made especially for Kanye and Jay-Z on the Watch The Throne tour. 






 He paired the look with trendy frames and splattered camouflage shorts.  




D Wade rocked a Team No Sleep t-shirt.


Wade paired the tee with green chinos.


Showing a little PDA, Chris Bosh wore a Nike "Every Damn Night" t-shirt that retails for $28.00




All and all it looks like The Big Three as well as their teammates had a great time celebrating their well deserved victory. Congrats to the Heats on their 2012 NBA Championship. Check out more party pics below.

[Trend Week] Day 4: Spring Forward in Colored Chinos



"Chinos" or "Khakis" like most clothing items got its origins from the military. During the 1840s, British soldiers fighting in the Punjab realized that their white and scarlet uniforms made them easy targets, so they decided to dye them to blend in with the natural terrain. Nowadays colored chinos are essential to be deemed a "stylish" debonair. Once enjoyed by boat, golf, and polo enthusiasts now the world over can indulge in the trend that never goes out of style.


The pant has appeared on stylish celebrities ranging from Kanye West to Justin Timberlake and continues to grace the cover of men's magazines like GQ and Men's Vogue. 




 Top designers like Michael Bastian and Tom Ford have also incorporated the stylish slack in their collections.

Tip:  If you're shorter in stature you may want to skip cuffing your pants, this causes a break in the line of the legs which can work more against you than for you. If you still want the cuffed look, try a single cuff that meets the top of your shoe.





This classic pant will forever be a part of  American men’s fashion! It's comfortable and simplistically fashionable. Remember no matter your personal style, make your mom proud by keeping it tailored!
