Style's more than just fashion. It's more than just clothing, bags and all that other couture clutter. It's the details, the thoughts and the theories that go into the minutiae of our everyday existence.

Style's the painting you picked up at the flea market, technologically-advanced fabrics, an poet's sonnet, young designers, the way you crack a joke, the way you brush your teeth. Over the next few weeks we'll be exploring the ins and outs of what we feel are some of the most "stylish" people, places and things. But, never fear, we will be talking about fashion. You gotta look good, right?

One-half NelSon knows a thing of two about looking good. The New York artist and party promoter has made a career of it. NelSon's look didn't spring from some fashionista caldron. It's a plotted, polished piece of work that stems as much from a creative spirit as a need to communicate.

We wanted to pass his word along, so we asked Interview's Justin Conner to sit down with the one known as NelSon. Of course Conner had no trouble tracking NelSon down - those kids have been vamping it up together for years. And on this particular night, they found themselves at Mr. Black, where NelSon hosts a weekly Thursday party, "Feelings".

Get a feeling for NelSon's fashion philosophy, performative personality and stylish spirit, after the jump. We promise one-half NelSon will have your heart in a strong hold!!

(Oh, c'mon! We couldn't resist. That's our style. And we'll be flashing it tonight at "Feelings". No doubt we want to see yours.)

We're sure Tim Gunn's tickled pink that Bravo has offered him his own show. According to Radar, however, producers aren't entirely convinced Gunn's capable of holding his own:

Sources say that his producers have mounted a furious search for a female cohost for Tim Gunn's Guide to Style, a makeover show that was initially scheduled to air this summer as a replacement for Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. A source who auditioned for the job was told that the show's producers felt Gunn, who will offer up style and make-up advice to schlubby civilians, was a bit "too highbrow" for viewers, and they needed a "more down-to-earth and fun" female presence to balance him out.

Fashion's all about timing. And Refinery29 wants to make sure you're synchronised. As part of their never-ending style quest, the ever-dashing website has teamed up with downtown boutique, BBlessing for an exclusive virtual shop. The sartorially-minded site includes such designers as, Surface to Air, Rag & Bone, Raf by Raf Simons and, yes, BBlessing's eponymous label. Shoppers can also snag some exclusive t-shirts from New York-based artist, Nicholas Kratochvil and two necklaces from Digby & Iona.

Situated down on Orchard Street in lovely NYC, the extant BBlessing aims to take men's shopping in a new direction. Their's is no seasonal style. Owners Sean Shuter and Daniel Jackson - who also designs for Surface to Air - have gone to great lengths to blend fashion with art, music and the literary oddities. Though the fashion calendar may change, they're always down with the forward thinking fashionista. Pop on over to BBlessin'g Refinery29 pop-up shop to get the goods.

But hurry - like so many things in fashion, the site's only available for a limited time. As of this writing, you have: 31 days, 8 hours, 22 minutes and 48 seconds.

• Tyra Banks loves Rosie O'Donnell's ta-tas.

• Friday's 20/20 features a Barbara Walters piece on transgender children and their families. Discussing the experience, Walters tells Dan Avery: "I am astounded by their courage. I think these children have a very hard future to face. In some ways it’s heartbreaking, but in other ways it’s uplifting. I had heard of the diagnosis and knew people went through this, but nothing prepared me for the love and sensitivity these people have for their children. That’s what this is about." If only all journalists were so altruistic.

• Colombia grows more than coca. Gay activists have been pushing for expanded rights. And people are getting hooked...

Style Network star Brini Maxwell is preparing a Christmas show that is playing for one night only this coming Sunday in New York. The performer who has been called “Florence Henderson with a Y chromosome” recently caught up with Bradford Shellhammer, discussing Martha Stewart, Jonathan Adler, and what all gays need this holiday season.

What exactly is A Very Brini Christmas and what can we expect from your upcoming show?

It's a warm, nostalgic look at the holiday season, with gentle humor and delightful music.

What new projects are you working on?

I have a few things up my sleeve, but nothing I can talk about at the moment. You can see the episodes of my second season, now airing on the Style Network on Fridays at 2:30pm and my new book: Brini Maxwell's Guide to Gracious Living is available everywhere - including the show at the Cutting Room.

What are five things every good gay needs to have this holiday season?

Good cheer, good friends, good will, good taste, and good recuperative skills.

More Brini after the jump.

When it comes to interior design, we usually go for an the ultra-modern downtown look, but when we see a designer that can pull off a tailored traditional look and not come across as looking like our grandma's dream home, we're all over him.

Meet Thad Hayes. Mr. Hayes's designs have been featured in just about every damn issue of Architectural Digest, the mag's almost become a walking advertisement for the man. We see why, though: his look is like a fine Armani suit: no matter who you are, or where you're at in life, you're gonna' look good in one. Sophisticated without being stuffy; hip without being pretentious, and subtle while all the while silently screaming to your dinner guests "I am so much richer than you!"

Oh, and we are so moving into the master bedroom of that "fifth avenue residence" under the "portfolio" section as soon Queerty goes public, or the owners forget to lock their doors. Whichever comes first.
