I'm at a restaurant for dinner the other night and at a corner table I see Lefkowitz, this guy I know from LA. He's got a certain look down cold which I guess we'll have to call the "LA in NY" look. It consists mostly of a suit and an open-collared shirt.
I hasten to add this is the "Executive LA in NY look" because Internet entrepreneurs and actors from the left coast don't sport this particular fashion package. They are more the black t-shirt, black slacks with butch belt and unstructured sport coat look, with possibly a pair of $800 prescription sun glasses on a neck cord or chain.
The really successful right-brain types actually do without the sport coat entirely and just show up in what they had lying around on the floor from last night. You have to be in the eight figures to be able to do that bi-coastally.
At any rate, Lefkowitz was in the aforementioned executive garb looking cool and dreamy with his slightly rumpled silk shirt under a perfectly natty suit that never saw a rack. Somewhere between the appetizer and the main course I figure what the hey, I'll go over and say hi to the guy. I don't know him very well, but we occasionally are on the same e-mail chain together. Why not log a minute of face time?
