What’s New: Spring Blazers for Every Occasion

February 6, 2013


Blazers are a necessary staple for every mans wardrobe. Yet, very few men know how to really rock a blazer or sport coat. We are here to definitively inform you that wearing your office suit jacket as a sport coat is simply unacceptable and should never be attempted. Now, that we’ve gotten that simple formality out of the way we can talk about some of the great blazers/sport coats we just received for Spring.

Blazer: Howe $199, T-shirt: Plain Jane Homme $65, Chino: Strellson $168

This season offers some great options for every type of guy, from minimalist or the life of the party, we’ve got you covered. Take for example, this grey layered hoodie knit blazer from Howe. The fact that it feels like your favourite sweat shirt but looks like a well tailored jacket makes it the next best thing to your pajama’s. We matched it with a classic tee from Plain Jane Homme and a pair of red chinos from Strellson. A great look for a casual afternoon out on the town.

 

Blazer: Gsus $305, T-Shirt: Gsus $65, Chino: Vito $88

Next up, we have this simple but classic twill blazer from Gsus. The navy blue colour puts you right on trend for Spring and the built in pocket square ads a great touch to your over all look. Paired that with a nice printed tee from Gsus and bold pair of cayenne coloured pants from Vito almost guarantees to garner all the “right” type of attention. You’re welcome!

Blazer: Moods Of Norway $495, Shirt: Gsus $159, Pants: Vito $88

Last but not least, we introduce to you this stunning plaid sportcoat by Moods of Norway. This is definitely for the gentleman of the group. The plaid pattern give this outfit a timeless heritage look, making it great option for evenings and semi formal outings. To keep the outfit young and fresh we matched the sportcoat with this cool shirt from Gsus with contrast collars. With the design of the shirt you really don’t need to worry about wearing a tie or bow tie.

Welcome Martin, as he join the Eligible Magazine’s roster of the city’s most eligible bachelors. You may remember him from our Beach Ball sponsored charity event and an article in Sharp Magazine last year, or the casual fact that he is a former Olympic athlete.

Either way you’ll be happy to know that he is back out on the town and lending his name to another great charity event to raise money for SickKids. For more check out the Eligible Magazine / Sick Kids Auction for ticket details.

As one of the key sponsors for the event we got together with Martin and much like his counterparts dressed him head to toe in apparel from Gotstyle. We created a look that merged the formal aesthetic with an Urban modern twist, ideal for a star athlete turned entrepreneur. We put him in a great John Varvatos black leather blazer, grey double breasted cardigan and grey tweed cargo pant, Ted Baker blue denim shirt and Dibi green camo tie.

Beat your winter blues by taking solace in the fact that the official start to Spring is merely a month away. And with that in mind we’ve worked hard to start stocking our shelves with some great transitional styles and trends. First to arrive are these incredible suits and shirts from Tiger of Sweden and Stenstroms.

One of the hottest colour trends this coming Spring/Summer’13 season is the colour blue. No matter the hue, this classic, timeless colour pallet is back and stronger than ever. These suit options by Tiger of Sweden are a wonderful example of how you can adopt this trend into your Spring wardrobe. The Nedvin suit by Tiger of Sweden is a great silhouette for the modern man. The blazer is made from 100% wool, is tailored through the body, has the classic double ticket pocket and features a slim lapel. The trousers are trim fit and are ideal for men with a slightly slim to athletic build.

To complete these looks we’ve paired each suit with an exceptionally crafted shirt from Stenstroms. Another trend this season are classics, as such we’ve showcased shirts that feature timeless patterns, such as, the grid check and fine herringbone stripes. Match that with a widespread collar and you’ve got an outfit fit for any office/corporate setting.

Runway to Reality: Bradley Cooper

February 4, 2013

Let’s face it: Bradley Cooper has never been know for his style, but since the growing popularity of his Oscar nominated movie Silver Linings Playbook, the actor has stepped up his game. This was him on the red carpet at the 2013 Sag Awards, where he wore a classic navy blue, black shawl collar satin lapel tux by Tom Ford. He paired this with a black bow tie and black patent leather shoes.

Now, we dont know the exact price of this suit, but suffice it to say given that it is Tom Ford you know you’ll be paying upwards of $3,000, for the suit alone! Luckily, you have us and it wouldn’t be runway to reality if we couldn’t offer you something stunningly comparable. Check out this tailored navy blue tux from SAND ($1250), paired with a crisp white Caliban shirt ($175), Dion black bow-tie ($94), and Luca Vero patent leather shoes ($250).
