This week in New York's Look Book, we're treated to a stunning find: the rare and mysterious theater actress. (Oooh, aaah!) Sara Gettelfinger is currently performing Dirty Rotten Scoundrels with John Lithgow and, when she's not singing and dancing her way to Broadway stardom, she's stealing tote bags from her mom's closet. While we don't really fancy our mothers' Brighton bags, who are we to judge? After the jump, Intern Alexis rounds up the masculine trio of Adam Rathe, Tony Herman, and Frank Woodworth for some hard-hitting fashionalysis.
