'For your daily fashion project I wanted to show you how I like to incorporate some Italian sprezzatura into my daily attire. I live in Sacramento, CA, and casual has become the standard I try to avoid. I come from an extremely close knit family, and due to my brother-in-law's obligation to the military, my sister and her small family have recently moved to Italy. And with my strong influence from Italian textures, cuts, and versatility, my saying remains truer to this day...if I can't live with them, I'll dress like them.'

'Fashion is a big part of my life and I think that being well dressed and looking good is a big way of how people view you. The style that I enjoy is preppy and rustic.
Times that I have viewed people differently is when I am just in public and I see some one dressed well. I view them as if they care about how they look and I give them more respect. People have viewed me as a much more mature and respectful person because I care what I look like.'

Always Be Imitated but Never Imitate

'My style is easy and accurate. I'm just a simple guy with good taste. I am a business manager but my passion is fashion; going my way around, saludos!!!
My passion for fashion started at an early age, I am the son of Lebanese parents and the holidays here are of great importance. As a good Lebanese at big parties, I learned to crtique and become inventive. Now I am a great fashion critic.
Later came adolescence and all that rebelling. I was young, overweight and could not find clothes to fit. I had to devise my own clothing line. With perseverance I learned to cut and sew it myself!
It was interesting in the beginning. I learned a lot- combinations with belts, shoes and textures of fabrics was fundamental! The city I live in has an orthodox fashion sense, there are no department stores or renowned brands, only people who bring a few custom shirts and pants from the US. I did not want to stay monotonous and boring in my dress which many see as a distraction but I see it as a way of life. As I see a piece of clothing I automatically see which is the perfect combination to have with that piece, without much effort. It's that simple.
Now, after a long time successfully losing weight and getting clothing more easily, (but still in the same town of orthodox and boring clothes, lol) I keep inventing my trusted tailored pieces.
An important point is that as a great lover of fashion I also love the history of fashion. I think having lived in 3 of the most important eras (70's, 80's and 90's) further inspires me with a good base. My style ranges from the suburban to classic, never going through the boring and ordinary people. EVER! '
My motto is "Always be imitated but never imitate."
