if you look at men’s fashion online you are going to be a little disconcerted orjust plain freaked out so today we are going to get hot tips for Father’s Daytrends. Welcome to Newport Living and Lifestyles and welcome sartorial expertMarc Streisand from Marc Allen fine Clothier right here on Bellevue. Hey! thanks forhaving me here, thanks for coming to my shop.Welcome! We’re gonna have a lot of fun today I think that we have gifts foreverybody that can possibly want to buy their husbands, fathers,boyfriend’s, parents something and I think that they’re gonna be very veryhappy with what we’ve selected for you. Everything from low range to high range.Yes alright , well where are you located? Tell us a little bit about yourself. Okso my last name is Streisand. Yes I’m related to Barbara, that’s thefirst question that everybody asks me. She is my second cousin, but I can’t singfor anything, so let’s not try that. Not even a smidgen? yeah… nobody nobodywants to hear that. I mean unless you want your viewership to run. so right here inNewport we’re at 142 Bellevue Avenue. We also have locations in Providence RhodeIsland and Boston Massachusetts. I’ve had Marc Allen fine clothiers for the past 15years. We had our 15th anniversary March 5th. Well let’s get to it! What do youhave for us here today? We know how important your relationships are withyour father’s, boyfriends or husbands, so what we did here is we brought in afew kind of key items here very very less expensive less than $30these are from Lemon and Line located here in Newport Rhode Island and they’reobviously a very nautically inspired bracelet as you can see Christon’swearing one as well. We have your classic tie and we broughtsomething again you know bring it to Newport nice and full of coloreverything and all the ties are handmade Italy and you know paint is one of myfavorite colors pink purple those are colors of royalty regal Ness and I’mwealth so don’t be afraid to get that person something that’s going to give alittle bit of pop and Flair here we have a couple of socksnow I’m gonna unroll this one for you so you can actually see what it is this iswhat’s called over the calf sock and you might say to yourself oh my god it’s sobig yes it is right and most people do but the great thing about this sock isthat it’s never going to fall down in a guy’s leg so often guys get frustratedso you know unlike me I’m not wearing any socks today okaytypical New England. right! it’s Newport, it’s the beach and you know we want tohave a little fun and breath a little bit but for the guy that really likes thatcolorful action this sock is never gonna fall down on him so it’s gonna go allthe way up to his calf and it’s gonna stay there and it’s gonna look nice andclean all day long because you know if you look at it the Blues are verysimilar and it goes with your outfit. so I think it’d be really really coolHe is the sartorial expert! and again all their socks, they’re made in ItalyBresciani which is a company right out of Tuscany outside of Tuscany.Marcoliani which is a little bit more of a southern Italy the other real commongift for a guy to get now is the pocket square. It adds a little dish of color or alittle finishing touch, to a guys outfit, so you’ll see here thatI have one air in my pocket and you know with this one we actually make hereright here in the store and we hand crocheted the edges just to give it alittle bit more depth to it this is just from our custom shirt this is someremnant that we have leftover and if I pop it into my breast pocket here youdon’t have to fuss with it, and it just stays in there nice and clean. Now I knowhow they put a pocket square in the pocket. right and there’s so many different ways .I mean weput up on the web right now, a bunch different ways for guys to wearpocket squares. great tutorial. we made sartorial face masksso basically much like the pocket square, we took our custom shirt fabrics and wedeveloped them into a beautifully hand finished, handmade, reusable, washablefacemasks. what we’re doing now is anytime a guy makes a custom shirt we’re makinghim a matching pocket square. I love that idea! Next iscufflinks, this is from a brand called Robin Rotenier out of New YorkCity. again Nautically inspired for Newport. we have an octopus, we have fish, thisis a barracuda so when a guy wants to go fishing, and says this is hisfavorite kind of downtime activity is fishing. next thing is the bathing suit.well you can’t just go with a schlocky old bathing suit that you maybeget from a ten dollar store. what is schlocky? Schlocky isthose , you know cut-offs or the bargain-basement ones that maybeyou’re gonna get at the discount store. okay, all right, schlocky.exactly so vilebrequin is a French brand and they are they have really been knownfor the father-son bathing suit and you can see if you look to your right hand side.you’ll see we have a bunch of different ones. you know have a little bit of fun.and you know there’s a specific way you have to wear the bathing suit, with yourshirt tucked in the back. yes as you can see over here you know it’s all aboutbranding, nobody wants to see this in a bathing suit. That’s why they tuck the back in, not the front.exactly! next thing to me which i think is so so important is the quintessentialt-shirt so this is a t-shirt out of Naples Italy from a company calledMazzarelli, the cotton is extremely soft and it’s so light I mean it feels likeyou’re wearing nothing and I love that. Ettinger is known for their really coolleather goods. One of the things that I like to haveis the flask. Now you’re saying, well why do I want a flask, well I don’t have adrinking problem. however, I like my own spirits. I’m sorry, Newport has a drinkingproblem. Yes and hence the reason why we have these little flasks, so what’s reallycool about this one is it has its own little glasses. Is something in there for us? You know what? I was afraid.because it is only twelve O’Clock, if we started now, we won’t finish tillprobably two o’clock this morning. We will just keep having fun. exactly, so what I loveabout this, is the shape of it, because it’s a little bit different. Imean here’s your classic flask. It’s really cool but I like the sizeof this one and it was just felt really good, it’s a little bit more finished. Ilove the fact that it has a little compartment that you can put yourcups in it right away, so when you unscrew it any periodic, boom. If you are on a boat, it has a good grip. yes exactlyand it’s much more classy than carrying a lot of nips around. This is from alocal designer called Kimberly Pucci and Kimberly does beautiful luxury lifestyleitems, beautiful leathers, all made in Tuscany. This is a dopp kit, what Ilove about this is you can custom make these and you can have them lined withall different colors of leather. okay this is myfavorite thing! I use it all the time! BOOM!wait for it. oh yeah. Do you know what that sound is? Daddy’s little helper.Right here! This is a wine tote. It carries sixbottles of wine. beautiful. beautifully crafted, very very durable handles, greatpockets. Then the other thing, that Kimberly doesn’t know, that I think thisis really great for, I’m just gonna show you real quickly. You can put your shoes in here. Okay and wine! and wine.I have been to several parties around town when you get there they have verylarge silk rugs and they ask you to take off your shoes off.This right here is a very good… HAA okay so this was a gag gift and it has becomereally popular among the men in our circle and it has a whole set.yes! so this is from a company called Ballsy.Let me read you the tagline. “keep the funk off your junk” boom.I don’t get red often people, but I’m red right now.Nut rub. It’s a cologne. Is it? I got nothing. It comes with a whole set.Just a little something for your honey. yeah… yes. And personally, I wouldprobably have a good laugh if I received this. Exactly, That is really what it is all about.Harry shave club. Harry shave club isreally great because it provides you… It originally, just started with shavingcream and a razor and it has really expanded. They’ve gotten a lot more intothe men’s facial facial healthcare, with scrubs, and masks, face wash andagain your razors. The great thing about this is you can just go online andorder it right there and it just comes in the mail, so you don’t have to go buyrazors. Next product. Stay on the boat. Stay on the boat! Don’t worry about it. The nextproduct is something that every man should have. If he doesn’the doesn’t have good friends. The anticipation is killing me.Boom! This is a nose and ear trimmer. oh please yes! it’s terrible when they havelittle things hanging out like that, and then in the ears…You want to take care of this. Something good, get a good one. Out of myresearch, I found Wahl makes the best one. Respect your friends andtrim your hairs. There’s a shop in Newport called Grenon’s and it’s righton Bellevue, right down the street from us. This is a pen fromRome from a company called Zanetti. It’s not inexpensive, but it is really reallybeautiful, it’s all natural stone that its main add up mother-of-pearland you can see here, the color green, it changes. It is Oyster shell-ishIt’s like that oyster shell that you would see, so this pen is $1500 bucks.A lot of money, but a great investment. This is a keep sake,something that you can hand down throughout the years, and to me that’svery very important. I still have my original pen that I got a long time agofrom my parents. She’s always trying to get me to say how old I am.I’m not telling. Next we have a beautiful watch here also from Grenon’s fromAlexander Shorokoff out of Germany. This is a real statement watch.I like this watch. This one here is another beautiful watch out of Europe it’s adiver watch, it’s got a very cool… feel that texture on the top of that band.I love that they stitched the whole band with the orange to give a little more accent. Gives it a pop.Very cool, go on your boat, dive right in, you never have to worry about it. Next watchwe have here is a Speake Marin. This watch is a chronograph.You can see that it has a silicone band, which i think is very very cool.This one here is my favorite. This watch, if you can get a little close up,For anyone who’s a horologist, they’re gonna look at this watchand they’re going to be wowed by it. I’m sorry, a what?A horologist, that is a person who is into horology, which is fine watches and time pieces.Well that explains why I didn’t know what it was.On another subject we have our Newport scenery here.Newports known for our sailing. We’ve had the American Cup here for years and years and years and years.We’re trying to always roll it back, butyou can go down to the wharfs or the even the bay you’ll seehundreds maybe thousands of sailboats so this is a nice gift, it’s notvery very expensive it’s about twenty-five dollars. Get your dadsomething that when he writes you a note back one day saying you’re agreat child. Next thing is a little cutesy item. Thisis from the museum mansion store. What I like about theseThese are coasters but they’re like little flying carpets. Couple items that are a littlebit more random, most men have these thingsalready, but this is a wallet. This is your classic billfold. This ismade from a brand called Tumi. This is from a company out ofFrance called Hermes. It’s got a very cute design to it, so when it isfolded it up, it’s very very slim and sleek. You can carry a creditcard here, credit card here, and you can put a bill rightacross here, this is the width of a bill and you just put a regular bill inthere and just keeps nice and folded. Very very simple & easy. I don’t like tocarry a big wallet. I like something a little bit more small. Well you have a purse!This is a little tablet, you can get a pen that can fit in here.You remember the old composition notepads thatwe used to have as kids. You can keep a log, keep notes, one of those littleeasy things. This is an item that you are really going to love.I am going to love this. I feel like he is saying that I am going to love this.Personally, I get it. yeah now we know what SAXX means. feel this under wear.it’s got it’s got a great hand to it, it’s a beautiful cotton modal, a littlestretch to it. And wicking. oh yes absolutely wicks. What’s greatabout this is it has a little ball sack. A guy out in California about tenyears ago said to me, I’ve got the greatest underwear in the world! I’m likewhatever. he goes it’s a ball sack! I’m like what do you mean it’s a ball sack?well you ride your bike right ? I saw it Facebook. I’m like yeahThis will help you with your riding. So I said send me a pair and I wear itever since. If you don’t want to get yourdad just a little gadget or a bathing suit or something like that, you wantmight want to get him something that’s a little sportier, so this is the samemake manufacturers as the t-shirts from a brand called Mazzarelli. What I likeabout this, is that it’s kind of shirt collar, the next thing that can go withthis, Thank you Vanna White, I like the way it feels.This is a brand called PT-01 out of Torino Italy. This is their rendition ofthe quintessential techno golf trouser now I use the word golf because it’s gota couple features in there that make it a little bit more apropos for golf butstill allows you to wear this with a pair of dress shoes and even the polo.This is from a brand out a Naples Italy called Pescarolo the modern-dayjogger or sweat pant. Now it’s sweat pantmaterial it’s made out of all cotton, it’s made in Italy, it’s got a drawstringand everything, but it unbuttons like a regular trouser. Other items over herevery very important. If you’re on your boat cruising around on your scooterjust out lounging around. Gotta be cool. Gotta be cool.What’s better than your ray-ban sunglasses. I’m actually gonna have youmodel these. now not only are these are the classic aviator style but they have thebrow bar. That is the key piece this year is to have the brow bar. she doesn’tsweat, just so that you know that, beautiful, glistening. It’ll actually, it’ll stop there. This is from somebody that’s near anddear to our hearts. I don’t know who it could possibly be? Chris Cline DesignChris Cline Design. All handmade, hand painted shells, locally. You can use thesefor almost anything you want. For something that’s near and dear toeveryone’s heart is the homemade gift. Don’t ever forget about the homemade gifts.it’s not the gift, it’s the whole feeling about doing something special.What’s says more special than, I love you daddy.Handmade, gorgeous, love it, free! so for the guy who wants something that’s moreindividual he’s gonna maybe want to have a custom-made sport jacket or suit. Weknow many that do. How do you make it special?well we’ve done something that I think is really unique. We have contracted witha couple of different companies and here is all differentlinings that you can put into a jacket. Those are nice. yeah and they’re all made out of bembergand silks and you can get such fun ones in here so this is aclient, on a beautiful estate on Ocean Drive and you’ll see,this is a beautiful mansion on Ocean Drive and you can seethat we have stepped and repeated it, so this whole thing is all made ofsilk, and it’s the exact image that we talk so we hired a photographer to comeout and he took a really beautiful sky shot of this thing.The last thing. The very last thing! Is a lapel pin.I made from another local designer. Chris Cline DesignThis is a beautiful lapel pin star fish.A lapel pin is another way for a guy to have an accessory so that he can wear something that’s individual.and Christon has one on too.now we’re a little twinsy today, which I kind of dig.Marc, thank you so much for making our Father’s Day a special one.Everybody can just reach you or go to your website if they have any questions.and hopefully we will be seeing you on Newport Living and Lifestyles.This featured presentation was brought to you by Randall Poirier a financial plannerand partner with Independence Financial Partners helping individuals andnonprofits navigate to a secure financial future.

Welcome to Newport Living and Lifestyles

Travel Tuesdays

brought to you by B&B Yacht Charters, Inc.

with President and co-host Jennifer Saia.

Hi everyone! Social distancing! Check out my anchors !

Love it!

Today we’re going to feature

Motor Yacht CRU and Captain Nick Kincaid.

We’re so happy to have you on board

This is a 96 foot Westship and she’s been so popular in the Caribbean.

You’re in Florida now and headed to the Chesapeake.

I want you to tell us why we should actually charter with you and your crew this summer.

We are go getters, of course, we like to do a lot of activities keeping the kids busy.

Everyone on the boat has their own special talents.

We take a lot of pride in the crew that’s that’s on the boat, good to be a part of this team.

What are some of the activities and amenities that you guys offer on your boat?

We make sure that they get the best experience.

We tow a 33 foot Intrepid fully rigged for fishing.

It carries inflatable toys, we have wake boards.

Then when we get onto the big vessel CRU, we have two jet ski’s

We have three inflatable islands, we have four paddle boards

We also have a kayak that can seat either two adults or three kids.

Up on the upper deck, it’s a nice patio sun deck area where

you can grill out and lots of room to

congregate and and enjoy barbecue on a sunny day

We put together theme nights that’s a lot of fun!

Yes we love theme nights!

Give us a good story

Our Christmas charter is always a big one for theme night

Everyone dressed up as elves and

I dressed up as Santa and our charter guests were sitting there wake boarding.

We had one of them wearing a Santa costume and they loved it

I’ve seen the Murder Mystery or Pirates of the Caribbean.

Anything you can dream of, we can execute it.

What if there’s an inclement day?

Then you have the amenities inside. Everything you could ask for like Direct TV & internet

Then we also provide some fine dining on the interior with Alex Decara as our chef

The boat can still move and take people to shore in different areas.

We go up to Newport and all New England this season.

As soon as things open up then maybe go through a mansion tour

or fine restaurants that are here

even though we have the best one on board

but people like to get out a little bit.

You take people out to fish. Can they bring it back and eat what you catch?

oh absolutely

That’s how I started my career as a Captain.

I started out on fishing boats.

When we were down in the Caribbean.

We would take the guests fishing.

We’d catch a nice big wahoo or tuna and

I’d fillet it right there in front of them

and then Alex would have it cooked for lunch.

There’s been times where people wanted to eat out and

they had Alex’s cooking day one and

they just canceled all their reservations.

We get preference sheets on what they like to eat.

Alex will cater and change her whole plan

on how she’s going to execute meals.

based on their dietary requirements.

Custom Custom Custom. That’s really the theme of chartering.

What would people need to be prepared to bring for a yacht charter

as opposed to other vacations they may go on.

Everything that they’re really going to need, we have.

You’ve got toiletries, you’ve got blow dryers, you’ve got sunscreens,

Everything, All of that.

You’ve got towels, you’ve got incredible sheets and all your amenities

that you’ll expect at a five-star hotel.

How far can one go and back one a tank of gas (fuel)

On charter the longest leg we’ve done was maybe 100 miles but

we can go on one tank of gas 1200 miles

so people can see a lot!

Generally when we do trips we’ll go about 40 miles

We’d like to have a nice summer up here in Newport and

the islands right off the coast Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard, Block Island

and have clients go between them by private yachts

Actually, I think this season instead of going traveling abroad or

places that you’re going to go with more people

you want to go on a smaller vacation where it’s low risk

It’s almost like one to one.

We’ve got 6 guests & 4 crew

This is an intimate experience.

Not for the masses and it’s still affordable.

What did you do down in St Martin while you were quarantining?

A lot of projects.

We’ve been improving everything,

making sure everything’s perfect.

We put our hearts into this boat.

They can reach you through

Jennifer Saia of B&B Yacht Charters, Inc.

and book anything, put anything together and

customize an amazing trip.

Yes, Absolutely

We are looking forward to the Chesapeake and

the New England itineraries and

then we will head back down south.

We look forward to seeing more of your trips and meeting your crew.

Thanks so much Jennifer for hosting Travel Tuesdays.

Nice to meet you Nick

Nice to meet you as well

We look forward to seeing you

on Newport Living and Lifestyles

Thanks everybody
