Fall Back on Tortoise Shell

With October coming to an end and fall gaining its stride it's time put away those summer aviators and bright colored wafarers. Instead you'll want to reach for a more subdued pair of sunglasses like these tortoise shell Ray-bans. Their more neutral color palate will go better with all the plaids, greys, and tweeds that are pulled out of the closet during the pre-winter months. Plus you can forgo the sunglasses and just wear them as regular frames like Rob Lowe in the Ricky Gervais comedy, The Invention of Lying. Ray-Ban Original Wafarer ($139) The Invention of Lying now playing in theaters.

And If you don't feel like spending the 139 bucks there are plenty of less expensive versions like these found at Fred Flare for considerablly less. fredflare.com ($11)

Watch Your Wallet's Weight

For those of you still carrying around a George Costanza sized wallet, it's time to give your right ass cheek a break, and slim down your currency carrier. I know you have important receipts in there jammed next to that condom with the iffy expiration date. Plus you only need one more punch in your frequent buyer card to receive your free hot dog from the mini-mart. But trust me. Once you make the switch to a slim card carrier or sleek money clip, you'll forget all about that delicious four day old frankfurter, and you might even get the chance to use that condom. You'll look better in jeans as well as suits, plus you'll be more comfortable when sitting.

I've been carrying a Coach card case in my front pocket, with my cash folded neatly next to it, for about two years now, and will never switch back. With every one from Prada and D&G to Fossil making card cases they should be fairly easy to find in an array of different price ranges and styles.

Coach ($88), Prada ($155), D&G ($155), Fossil ($25) The card carrier is the little removable tab.
