Bringing a 70's vibe to a gentleman's look!

Summer of linens! When I visited the village of Portofino, Italy I came across a small shop that sold men's linen shirts and swimwear. Since I already have a plethora of swimwear I was interested in their linen shirts - okay I have a plethora of shirts too but I digress. Immediately, my eyes were drawn to their red linen shirt from Orizzonte Portofino by Xacus. It had a Mandarin collar instead of your normal collar so I knew that I didn't have anything similar already. With i

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

Nautical vibes! @DriftingDCal On my most recent trip to Croatia, I knew I wanted to make my outfits fit with the scenic views of the Adriatic Sea. That meant rocking the blue hues! For this outfit, I wore a blue and white striped button-down shirt from Next. @DriftingDCal One day while shopping I came across these amazing white striped trousers from Zara and I knew I had to have them for the summer. Nothing screams summer styling like white trousers. Most of the time, I like

Kicking spring off in pastels! Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal During April I was in France and although the sun was shining there was a bit of a breeze with a cold chill. But the sunny weather was telling me to wear something colorful so I grabbed my purple bomber jacket and built an outfit around it. Any reason to wear color, right? Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal I put a creme colored jumper underneath the bomber jacket for a bit of extra warmth. It was super windy that da

Time for a lot of black! Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal So I have this black blazer that I really love because it makes me feel like a prince. The cut and the over-embellished buttons give a very "stately" feel. I didn't want my outfit to draw attention away from the blazer so I decided to go with all black tones except for my t-shirt and shoes. Photo courtesy of @DriftingDCal I chose to go with a relaxed fit t-shirt with a lower cut instead of a regular crew neck t-shirt to

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

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

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
