THE IDEAL AMERICAN LOOK

 

The real-life Gary Cooper was just as authentic. He had an ideal American look - unstudied yet refined, natural and playful. There was a charm about him in the way he didn't take himself too seriously. He had that sort of "aw shucks" attitude, plus a look that was all about quality, and a way of dressing that was much his own. This forward was written by Ralph Lauren for a book called "Gary Cooper Enduring Style" This book is filled with stylish pictures of a movie star who lived in the hay days of Hollywood.

In the last picture you see a style which was embraced by the peacocks at the Pitti Uomo.

TODD SNYDER FALL/WINTER 2012

Todd Snyder presented his second Fall/Winter collection during Fashion Week in New York. As GQ says function, form and flair were on display. Todd Snyder creates the ideal wardrobe for a rugged urban adventurer. Slim leather jackets and fur-lined parkas paired with slim cargo pants, wool suits and soft cardigans.

RUGBY LONDON, INSPIRATION

Great inspiration from Rugby, Covent Garden, London.

The Steady Hand: Yes or No- Wearing Shoes in the House

The Steady Hand: Yes or No- Wearing Shoes in the House

'Now my husband on the other hand…will wear his shoes everywhere. From the moment he gets dressed in the morning until he goes to bed, his shoes are on. How is that comfortable? I told him that I do not like him wearing his shoes in the house but that doesn’t go very far. The only fight I have won is that he will not wear his shoes upstairs…ever. No one gets to wear their shoes upstairs…unless you want to clean the carpet on the stairs for me.

Shoes track dirt everywhere! That is why I don’t see any reason why you should wear your shoes in the house (well, at least my house). Yes, I am that much of a clean freak. It didn’t get this bad until after my daughter. Kids are on the floor all the time. Touching it, dropping stuff on it, etc. Especially based on the fact that most of the floors in my house are light-colored so that they show even the smallest amount of dirt. Don’t get me started on carpet stains!'

"STAY PREPPY MY FRIENDS"

Ivy Prepster is just a few years old, the brand has grown to satisfy everything you'll need to complete your collegiate-inspired outfit. The brand is inspired by the resurgence of the tie in the male wardrobe and the modern prep movement, Ivy Prepster neckwear reflects the past, the present and future of knit ties. They reflect classic tie patterns, such as stripes and dots, as well as sweater-like argyle and fair isle motifs. Every Ivy Prepster knit tie is designed in the USA and handmade in Shanghai. Boy, I like that navy tie with anchor. "Stay Preppy my friend" they say at Ivy Prepster.
