Summer looks like Mr. Cary Grant

With the Summer comes the heat, sun-shine and men should opt to lighter colours. Below pictures of Mr. Grant depicts him in a formal Summer attire and a very casual attire. The pictures shows that a gent can still be elegant and timeless even when its hot.

Mr. Grant in a more formal Summer look, light coloured double breasted suit, shirt, tie and a pocket square. Light socks and co-respondent Oxford laced shoes.

A casual Summer look alá Mr. Grant, a tee-shirt, white trousers and loafers. Good looking and timeless, classic.

The Summer look in great colours - 2012

I used the weekend to enjoy (perhaps) the last summer days of this season in the Nordic. As of monday (yesterday) rain was back in action here in the Nordic. But for all of you who live in countries where summer is still showing the best side, so just for inspiration- look at the below depicted gents in real bright colours for the summer attire. Both gents have paired the attire worn with indoor slippers, a trend that popped up three - four years ago. 


I like the pairing of the bright yellow jacket with the dark purple trousers, white shirting and monogrammed indoor slippers. Great look. Not everyone can pull this off.

Inspiration from the Churchwell brothers

The other day I blogged about Dr. Andre Churchwell an American style icon, lucky for Mr. Churchwell that he has brothers that are also style icons. For Summer inspiration I give you the two Churchwell's, Andre and Keith. Very inspiring.

Note the reversed pleated trousers held by braces.

The Churchwell brothers never fail to turn out immaculately. Always very sharp in their dressing.
