Taron Egerton plays sexy and stylish British secret service agent Gary “Eggsy” Unwin in both Kingsman: The Secret Service, and the sequel, Kingsman: The Golden Circle. In the first Kingsman movie, he is transformed from a scruffy thug into a true gentleman who wears bespoke suits, thanks to his mentor, Harry Hart, played by the charming British actor, Colin Firth. After watching the sequel this past weekend, I knew that I needed to name Taron Egerton as this month’s “Man of Style”. “I’m naturally quite a scruffy bugger, so it was lovely to have a jaunt into the world of […]
Man of Style: Dwayne Johnson
Some people may question why I named Dwayne Johnson as this month’s “Man of Style”, but have you seen him in HBO’s “Ballers”? Just like his character Spencer Strasmore, Dwayne Johnson has some serious style! Men and women alike knew that when they heard the phrase — “Do you smell what The Rock is cookin’?” — that there were two things you could count on: (1) you knew that “The People’s Champion” was somewhere near the “wrastlin’ ring”, and (2) you knew that he was about “lay a smackdown” on somebody’s candy ass. But who knew that Dwayne Johnson would […]
Man of Style: Jason Momoa
Jason Momoa has a style all his own. It’s a little steampunk mixed with a dash of biker-goth and splash of cool surfer guy. I don’t think that there is any other man who could pull off this style with such panache. “I don’t think a lot of people are calling me to play doctors and lawyers, which is fine with me,” Jason said during an interview with Esquire. “I can put a suit on, but I don’t really like to.” There have been a few times that he “dressed up”, but he still puts his own spin on the […]
Man of Style: Daniel Day-Lewis
London-born thespian and Oscar winner, Daniel Day-Lewis, has a unique style all his own. I recently read an interview with him where the interviewer said that he brought a duffel bag full of his own clothes because he refuses to be “dressed” and is uncomfortable having his photo taken. Day-Lewis’ style is low-key, eclectic, and carefully chosen, and the movie roles he takes on are equally as stylish, eclectic and carefully chosen. The first movie I saw him in was A Room with a View. He then starred in a series of wonderful movies, like My Left Foot, The Last […]
Man of Style: Henry Cavill
You have to admit, Henry Cavill looks good in a suit — whether that suit is for a movie premiere, for the Red Carpet, or for his role as Clark Kent/Superman. His rugged good looks and well-maintained physique is why I named this English actor this month’s “Man of Style”. When Henry took on the role of the “Man of Steel” in 2013, he realized that it was “important to do the role justice. There are a lot of people relying on me to do this well. I gladly accept that responsibility, and it’s a great one to have because […]
