A Mans Hanky Mar 9, 2010


Seems like Spring is here. The sun is bright and the temperature calls for a nice lightweight jacket. A jacket like a Blazer or sport coat that could use a Pocket Square. Although a pocket square is worn as so, with a blazer or sport coat it doesn't mean its the only way to use it as an accessory. Ive mentioned in previous post you can place it in your back pocket. You tuck and pull and let it hang out some. Its a nice extra if you want to inject color or pattern into your outfit. If you prefer to wear with a jacket the tuck and pull works well but I prefer a folded flat pocket square in front. Ive attached a how to illustration for a bit of direction. When selecting a pocket square or when paring with an ensemble remember try not to go on pattern overload. A solid coat with a printed pocket square looks nice or the ever classic white Pocket Square on black or Navy can never steer you wrong. Below are some Handsome selections. Enjoy. Read more...

Favorite Fall 10 Collections Part 6 Mar 7, 2010

Finally we come to the end of the Fall 10 runway favorites and I saved the best for last! The Junya Watanabe Fall 10 collection is well fitted with sharp looking mixed fabric blocking some dandy speckle tweed and an all together tough guy Mod look. Another thing I must mention is the contrast stitching he uses on some of his trousers and blazers. It adds so much especially when that's something you wont really find in suits. The collection is superb. Enjoy.

Favorite Fall 10 Collections Part 5 Mar 4, 2010

You all might be familiar with Comme de Garcons from their heart on T-shirt and other garment series "Play". Here's where we get real runway, and what i mean by that is the clothes are definitely not off the rack but off the wall. I love the creativity you find in Comme de Garcons and as much as I love traditional wears I can appreciate the design that goes into their collections. Their Fall 10 runway was interesting and not for everyone but its creative and has elements one can incorporate in their wardrobe. Below are some of the runway highlights. Cheers.
