If you follow me on Instagram, I hope it’s clear that I don’t take it too seriously. I mean, let’s be honest – it’s an already border-line narcissistic behaviour, and I’ve justified to myself that self-deprecation and mocking the #menswear thing a little bit here and there balances the whole thing out. I do enjoy …
Me, Spier and Mackay Before diving into my Spier and Mackay suit review – I’ll start with an admission: They are the foundation of an awfully big portion of my wardrobe. I’m quite lucky that their clothing fits me pretty well off the rack – all I usually need to do is get the sleeves …
I came across Kent Wang on (where else) Style Forum. They have some really attractive pocket squares at very reasonable prices. In fact, Kent Wang in general offers a number of great products at reasonable prices (grenadine ties, sunglasses, etc.). The Rickshaw Cart I wrote about in a one square, four ways post and it is …
Man, is it already the end of January? Is it already 2018? Damn. Continuing this series of posts, I’ll take a look back at a number of outfits from the past month of my Instagram posts – a few that I like, and one that I didn’t. Yeah, I seek positive reinforcement even from myself. …

After writing the piece reflecting on my early odd jacket purchases (namely that a navy one wasn’t one of them), I thought maybe sharing some inspiration for navy jackets would be appropriate. For this post, I actually checked when I bought this jacket – it was in December 2016. Just over a year ago. I …
Surprisingly, a navy jacket was not one of my first sport coat purchases. It’s an interesting learning curve, if not unique to me. I read all sorts of posts and articles stating that a navy blazer or odd jacket should be the number 1 thing on your list after basic suits. But I didn’t want …
This was a fun activity I’ve done on Instagram a couple of times. One pocket square – four ways. Get it? Squares have four sides. Man, I’m clever. I thought it would be good to do here since I can get into a little more detail on why I like a pocket square in each context. It …
To start off this series of what I wore posts, I think a review of some of the outfits I’ve posted on Instagram last year is as good a way as any. I’ll share some of the thought that went into the combinations, as well as what I liked or didn’t like about each one. …
