EVENTS
Aside from being known for our clothes, we’d like to think that we know a thing or two about throwing some awesome parties. So, when we announced that we were ready to celebrate the grand opening of Gotstyle Distillery, having a celebration only seemed fitting. With over 7000 square foot retail space our new The Distillery District location was the perfect venue. As for the theme, we went pantone! In celebration of spring, latest fashion trends and our sheer love of colour, going pantone was the only logical choice.  
And we all know, no fashion party is complete without some great food, music, alcohol, and fashion show! We had cocktails by Martini Club sponsored by Belvedere, Moet, Hennessy and Glenmorangie. Food was catered by Treeline, who incorporated our theme into their fresh and colourful hors d’oeuvres menue which included chilled shrimp, seared tuna, gazpacho, white chocolate dipped strawberries and french macaroons. Music was provided by DJ Matt Bryce from House Of Class, and our Spring fashion show featured both mens and womens spring looks available at Gotstyle. 
With over 400 guests in attendance from top clients, key members of the media, tastemakers, and bloggers, this party not only featured some of the best dressed people in the city but as one guest put it served as “the official start of Spring”.

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.

Coat: Strellson $348, Blazer: Gsus $305, T-Shirt: Gsus $65, Trousers: Gsus $159

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.

Coat: Strellson $348, T-Shirt: Zanerobe $60, Chino: Vito $98

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.

Trench Coat: Strellson $298, Shirt: Stone Rose $158, Chino: Vito $88

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!


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.
