  • I submitted a piece similar to today's post for the publication I work for earlier in the week. It's about Valentine's Day. A day I have never acknowledged because well, it's a bunch of crap to be honest. It's nothing but a marketing scheme and if you really wanted to celebrate 'love', you have 365 days in the year. I'm sure you catch my drift. You can show the person you love, no matter who it is, throughout the year by expressing your affection on any given day.
    Now, onto the real piece. I presented two different looks that a gentleman can pull off for a Valentine's date. I complimented both looks with two different outfits for women. The first look is a bit dressed-up and the second is a little more on the casual side. Regardless the significance of the day, you have to look sharp for the ladies, gentlemen. They deserve a man that puts in the extra effort in style.

    Let's keep things warm shall we, gentlemen? I'll get straight to the point in today's edition of GS. We all need to layer in the colder months, to me, that's just a good time. A darn good time. One of the staples of a man's wardrobe, well, anyone's wardrobe, is the fine fitting sweater. I'm sure you have more than a few in the closet, unless you live in a year-round tropical climate. Even at that climate, I'm sure you've sported a nice light fabric knitted cardigan.
    As much as I love cardigans, today is strictly dedicated to the somewhat traditional well made sweater. I'm not that big of a sweater person, but it's definitely something I'll try out this winter and recommend to those who my feel the same way about it. Quality is key, yet functionality is a priority. We want to keep warm as well as looking sharp. Here's a collection of sweaters that I would recommend. Remember, if not these, find some in similar fashion.

    Well, gentlemen (and ladies), you should already know how much I love this entire week - stretching back to Pitti Uomo from few days ago. It's Milan Fashion Week for menswear Spring/Summer 2013! I absolutely love this period of time in Italy and really only hope to one day take part in the entire process. What is new is on the runway and the usual will be my favorite looks from each show. Just remember, these are only my favorites from each collection. It's also very difficult to choose the favorites from certain collection because I might love the entire show.
    I can no longer hold the excitement so let's get the show started! Here's part 1 of the series.
