It’s cold and we’re ready for spring. So how do we survive the coldest, longest stretch of winter? With style, of course. Here’s the Gotstyle pieces that are keeping our team going through January.

It’s about that time to pack up and go somewhere warm. We don’t have much snow, but we do have freezing cold winds. Thankfully we have great luggage for our guys, like Juma’s pony hair travel bag. It’s big enough for a week long vacation, but still good for a weekend away. Function and style make this bag a winning piece – and a good reason to book a vacation.

Juma pony hair bag $600.

What’s inside your luggage? Bright swim trunks that fit right and a pair of shades are all you really need. You booked a vacation so make sure you look good while doing it. And we all know why guys wear sunglasses, especially to a beach, right?

Zanerobes swim trunks $90, Le Specs sunglasses $60.

For the guys who aren’t flying South, have a drink. British-made Daines & Hathaway are luxury leather experts, and they definitely know a thing or two about sophisticated sipping. Three stainless steel flasks in a suede-lined leather carrying case, with lids that double as cups, and a shoulder strap should keep you feeling warm and stylish all winter.
