OUTFITS WITH DCAL - #23

Shades of grey. One of my favorite pieces this year is this coat from Suitsupply. The entire collar/lapel is just big enough to give a dramatic look without being too overly exaggerated. Since I'm a personal fan of "popping" the collar of my coats - this grey peacoat was a necessary purchase. We're in full winter mode so I wore a black roll neck jumper underneath. I didn't want to wear a scarf and detract from the collar of the coat hence a roll neck jumper to keep my neck wa

OUTFITS WITH DCAL - #20

The holiday party season is upon us! December marks the beginning of the endless holiday parties that ensue all the way up to New Year's. So at one of my first holiday parties this year I wanted to make a big splash with some color. Let's not forget that this time of year is known for velvet blazers for men so I decided to combine them both - color and velvet. I knew I was going to wear a velvet tux coat and built the outfit around it. My tux coat straddles in between a pink

OUTFITS WITH DCAL - #17

Simplicity with a dash of personality. Men's looks shouldn't be complicated but at the same time, they shouldn't be boring. I wore another all black number and wanted it to still show some personality and playfulness. I wore a rolled up sleeve black t-shirt with a pair of black cropped trousers - because we all know I love a good cropped trouser. But instead of wearing them with just a clean pair of black shoes I went for this... ...a colorful and snazzy pair of loafers from

Rocking an all-black ensemble in NYC! On my most recent trip to New York, I was running around the city for lunches, meetings, catching up with friends, and trying to take as many pictures as I can. You know - normal guy stuff. One of my favorite looks was this all-black outfit I wore to my dinner at Cleo in The Mondrian on Park Avenue. You shouldn't need me to tell you that an all-black look is an easy way to look classy and sophisticated but if you do - then wearing an all-

Wear linens for epic summer looks! When I was heading off to Croatia for a summer holiday I knew I wanted to have some stand out outfits! I headed to Zara, which depending on the collection, is either really good or just okay. Their summer 2018 collection had me very happy. They had a collection of linen wear that was relaxed and stylish. So naturally, I bought it! Immediately, I fell in love with all their beige tones. First, I came across their beige-striped trouser that wa

Snow and long winter coats. Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal During the days when the temperature was dropping below the negative temperatures and powdery snow was falling it was a great time to step outside to grab some epic winter shots. I wanted to keep to my "gentleman" style while keeping warm - or at least relatively warm! Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal I went with more grey tones to match my turtleneck. My long charcoal coat featured a leather mock collar and I matched

THE TOP WHITE T-SHIRTS FOR ANY BUDGET

Because one is obviously not enough! Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal White t-shirts are a must for any man's wardrobe. Whether worn by themselves or as a layer these versatile pieces are perfect for any style. If you're like me then you always seem to spill something when you wear white. Seriously, it never fails! Thus, it begs the question if you should stock up on cheaper options or spend that money on the more indulgent choices? Here's a selection to help solve your white

A winter outfit perfect for a snow photo shoot! Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal London was hit by a tiny winter storm that ended up covering the city with snow for three days. I've been in London for over five years and this was the first time I saw this much snow. It was nothing crazy but it did lend itself to some amazing images! Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal For this look, I focused on building my outfit around my military-inspired coat. With its dark green color and gol

Busting out the denim! Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal Its been a while since I wore a denim top. But I woke up one day and really wanted to – this is the end result! I wanted something relaxed and hip that I could wear with the new Chelsea boots that I just got from Goodwin Smith! I combined it with a solid white t-shirt underneath and a pair of camel colored trousers. To accessorize the outfit, I added a pair of Aviator style glasses to give off a 70s vibe. Find out how you

WINTER OUTFIT WITH MILITARY ACCENT

Taking inspiration from the military! Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal It gets cold in London during the fall/winter season. You wouldn't even think about going outside without a coat. That's why, or at least it's my excuse, that you should have a range of coats that exude a sense of style since your clothes will mostly be hidden underneath. Which is why this military-style coat became a quick favorite of mine this winter season. See below on how to get this look! Double Breas

SUMMER GENTLEMAN STYLE

SUMMER GENTLEMAN STYLE

Today I want to show you guys a dapper look to keep the gentleman style going even during the warmer seasons. White Button-Down Shirt As summer tends to have the sunshine shining a bit harder I like to keep my button-down to white. By keeping it a white color it reflects the sunlight back and leaves myself cooler than if I were to wear a darker color button-down. This one I found at ZARA and it had the added benefit of containing a bit of stretch in the shirt. The stretch mad
