The Outfit 144: Under the Sun

I haven't touched on dresses in a long while and I have been meaning to work with a couple of them. Both dresses are multicolored and have similar shades yet completely different in design. Both are something you can easily put on and enjoy the entire day in - very comfy when dealing with the summer heat.

Gentlemen's Sartorial 27

White out! It's the color to sport for us, gentlemen. I know some of you are thinking, that's a bit difficult to do. I mean...it's white. Regardless the outfit, it's going to get dirty really quick. Not necessarily. Gentlemen, you must be wise when it comes to dawning a white outfit. Now, I'm not talking about putting on an all white jump suit or even all white semi-formal suit. It can be any article of clothing but making sure the white is the focus of the look.
Even with an all white suit, it is possible to go through the day without having to really dirty it. The thing is, it's summer. You are supposed to look relaxed, the intention is to actually have a few wrinkles. You have to think about where exactly you will be wearing the given outfit. Think about how likely you are going to expose that white to oncoming attack of dirt. Honestly, it's unavoidable but you can lessen the chances. Remember, wrinkling is alright and make it look like it has been worn in. Sprezzatura, make it look effortless. You also have to consider which other color should compliment the white. Wearing an all white suit with a light blue shirt and a darker shade of blue tie is a winner. I've gathered some in style and currently popular styles of white clothing and accessories (minus dress shirts for obvious reasons) for all of you to incorporate into your own looks. Remember, I'm not telling you to purchase these exact items! Take a look at the designs and or cut of each item so that you can sport something similar within your favored price range! The reason I keep with this constant reminder is that this blog is global. Different regions of the world have different access and paths to certain types of clothing.

The Outfit 143: Strawberry Love

I saw this on a model on her off-day and thought how relaxed she looked. Not sure if she was actually on her day off, since there was plenty of 'look at me' chic onto her outfit. Maybe because of how relaxed she looked seemed as if there was no work to do at all that day. Here's a similar look to what she had on.

The Outfit 142: Fun Colored Friday

I've been noticing a lot of bright hues and neon shades on the streets - all over the world - worn by fabulously stylish women. I figured why not incorporate that in today's look. We'll try to keep it as sophisticated as possible without sacrificing a single ounce of fun. For the blouse, unbutton the top two, roll those sleeves up a bit, and you are good to go. (Remember to take it easy on the lip gloss, even though its formula is created to not make the look too heavy)

The Outfit 141: Oh, Charlize

Today's look is from one of the many beautiful images taken by Mr. Schuman a.k.a. The Sartorialist. The entire image is simply gorgeous, except she was on her cigarette break - turn off. But the photo, the look, was simply elegant. From afar, she even looks a bit like Charlize Theron, the posture, short hair, and all.
