DUSTIN OFF WINTER

We are off by a week. We thought T Magazine was next weekend...oy.

We are like long lost lovers that reunite every six months.

We're all wound up, anxiously padding around. We extract a note pad for the wish list and start dreaming for the must- haves.

We're talking about the Men's Style issue of The New York Times, T Magazine.

Dustin Hoffman covers the Spring 2012 issue:

The men’s spring fashion issue of T is filled with actors of every stripe. Our cover star Dustin Hoffman dissects his career with Giles Foden, Paul Dano brings morning into midday with a pajama shirt, and Willem Dafoe talks about his distinctive features with Joan Juliet Buck. There’s also a behind-the-scenes look at “Of Men and Mavericks,”the Curtis Hanson-directed film about surfing, starring Gerard Butler. Inside you will find cocktail-inspired grooming products, a primer on how to pack smarter and our must-haves: Italian suits, canvas kicks and weekend watches. When you’re done shopping, read the essay by the photojournalist Trevor Snapp about his assignments around the globe, Suzy Menkes on the runway’s military moment and Will Self on the hip-hop starAzealia Banks. And don’t forget our fashion portfolios: “Freshly Pressed,” with the likes of Martin Amis and Richard Ford, showing off the season’s stand out shirts, and “Riffraff Revisited,” in which the art collective Still House cleans up cool.

Oh NYT, keep the fashion foreplay talk going... it has us all excited.

The sharp, hard-edged cut of the new Tom Ford suit. Yes. Keep talking.....

The fresh new Polo Ralph Lauren ads. Oh.... we're edging!!

Those beautiful models in the editorials. Yeah, you are IN, keep a rhythm, baby. Keep givin it to us... we like it Jean-Paul Gaultier rough.

The squareness and elongated look of the new Prada loafer. Oy, we came!!!

T, you sure know how to give good fashion. **as we light a ciggie**
