What’s New: Jackets and Pants by STONES
It’s destined to be a colourful spring with these brights from STONES. We know that you’ll never give up your jeans (and we wouldn’t expect you to), but why not give them a much needed break this Spring/Summer. Working in punches of colour is a great way to make a statement without looking like you’re trying too hard. We love these pieces from STONES because they are made from a light cotton and have a little stretch, making them extremely comfortable and breathable. Ideal for those warm Spring and early summer days.
Also, take note of the subtle details on the Stone blazers, such as the lapel pin, floral prints under the collar and the elbow patch. As we often say, it’s all in the details. Enjoy!

Designer Profile: John Varvatos Spring/Summer 2013 x Gotstyle
John Varvatos is the ultimate rock ’n’ roll superstar star! Ironically, the man has never performed, written a song, or even lifted a musical instrument. Instead, for over a decade, John Varvatos has captivated the world with his vision of men’s fashion, one that has been infused and inspired by everything rock ’n’ Roll.
John Varvatos is a designer who draws inspiration from the past and repurposes these ideas into something entirely new. As a line created for guys who appreciate great fabrics, design and details, without being over-the-top, John Varvatos effortlessly fuses new school attitude with old school grace.
“Our philosophy is about reaching back to move forward. We have something different to say with a sensibility that is both old and new.” John Varvatos
Speaking of fusing new school and old school, his latest SS’13 campaign pairs the legendary Jimmy Page, the guitarist of Led Zeppelin with the 28-year-old emerging American music talent Gary Clark Jr., who’s been dubbed by the music industry to be “the next Hendrix”. This campaign merely follows suit of over 17 seasons of collaborations which have aimed to highlight the movers, shakers and style-makers of the rock ‘n’ roll scene. Past collaborators include Paul Weller and Miles Kane, Green Day, Franz Ferdinand, Perry Farrell, Cheap Trick, Alice Cooper, Velvet Revolver, Iggy Pop, Chris Cornell, Joe Perry, Ryan Adams and Slash.
Over the past decade, the John Varvatos brand has grown on several fronts and today represents an entire men’s lifestyle that includes belts, handbags, footwear, eyewear, limited edition watches, luxury skincare and fragrances, as well as the younger, edgier John Varvatos Star USA collection.
We at Gotstyle are a huge supporter of John Varvatos and more specifically the Star USA collection because the collection goes beyond the confines of “trends and truly speaks to an ideal, a lifestyle, a movement.
Check out these great looks from the John Varvatos Star USA Spring/Summer 2013 collection.

What’s New: Transitional Outerwear x Strellson
Warmer days are fast approaching, which means that there are going to be days where wearing a parka is going to be too hot and consequently wearing a sweater or sportcoat isn’t going to be enough. That’s why owning a great tansitional outerwear piece is a necessity. With these options from Strellson, you will be warm and look good at the same time.
Here is a great example of layering. One of the key features of owning a transitional outerwear piece is that you still have the ability to layer for the colder days, and take away layers for those slightly warmer ones. In this look we took this 4 pocket field jacket from Strellson and matched it with a printed Tee, tailored twill blazer and pants from Gsus. Creating a sophisticated look, without all the bulk.
This next outfit is great because it offers all the refinements of a blazer while still allowing you create variations from your existing wardrobe. As we mentioned, you have the options to layer this outfit or as shown, wear it with a nice tee from Zanerobe and classic chino’s by Vito. Keeping it casual isn’t always a bad thing when done right. As we say sometimes less is more.
Looking to add some variation to your casual fridays? Check out this lined trenchcoat by Strellson. It has a great length for those taller guys and comes lined, which is something to consider when purchasing any transitional outerwear piece. Throw in a bold check shirt by Stone Rose and some nice blue twill pants from Vito and you’ll be ready to take on Spring with confidence and style!
