From Belisi: How to dress like a celebrity
From Sean Combs to style guru Jay Manuel, stars are hitting the red carpet with a surprising accessory—the pocket square. Once very popular among Hollywood’s elite, the pocket square disappeared for the most part. The good news is that this elegant trend has returned. Another way male stars stand out at award shows and other public events is with a sharp looking suit and a luxury silk scarf. At Belisi, we understand that a quality tie is the denouement of a well-put together star look.
When Founder and President Peter set out to design the perfect silk tie, he sought the best fabrics and manufacturing techniques. He chose the finest Italian silk he could find, and didn’t stop until he’d perfected the right technique for creating each tie with more silk per inch than standard ties, resulting in a wide-knot tie preferred by the hottest male celebrities.
From the shape of sunglasses to the amount of starch used on a wide-collar dress shirt, every detail counts. Peter Belisi understands this about his customers, celebrity or civilian. Before starting his own company, he worked in finance and then as a bartender in star-studded Palm Beach, so he’s mastered the art of translating the celebrity look to the average male, without looking like he’s trying too hard.
“Other than wearing a high quality tie or pocket square, I can’t stress enough the importance of a crisp, clean button-down,” says Peter. “French cuffs with a set of simply stated cuff links looks like a million bucks. And of course, a nice watch, pressed pants or a trendy pair of premium denim like MEK—which are very affordable—finished off with scuff-free leather shoes sends the right message regardless of how much money is in your bank account.”

Hi,
I really like your blog design. I was something as simple and attractive as this one. Could you tell me who designed your blog and if it's not too impertinent, how much they charged.
Thanks.
