SPRING AND SUMMER'S MUST-HAVES....

The fedora hat is also this season's must. The narrower brim is sexier. It comes in colourful patterns and stripes. Express your personal style with your hats. But remember to remove your hat indoors.
Shades have always been a summer essential to protect ourselves against the sun. But this time they are a lot more sharper and are worn with style. They give you a cool character. Try the wayfarer frames. 
Paisley and polka-dots ties are also very big this year. A better option with striped shirts for those of you who are not comfortable at matching striped ties with striped shirts. You can look like a clown if you don't know what your're doing. Did you know that each time the way you wear a pocket square says something about your mood at that moment. Pocket square is your finishing touch.
Spring scarves are everywhere, they come in silk, cotton or in linen; a must for spring. Wear them with style.

STRIPED SOCKS are also a big hit this year, an expression of personality and attitude.

BOW TIES(coloured and striped ones) are in fashion, they can be worn for a casual, preppy and dressed up look.

Black Velvet Blazer

A black velvet blazer is a must-have.  Can be worn with jeans for a casual look, or with black dress pants for an evening look (formal).

Remember to always button your jacket! An unbuttoned jacket always looks sloppy. If you were to run into Tom Ford on Madison Avenue without your blazer buttoned, he may stop you and button it for you!

Navy Pinstripe Suit

Here you have a shirt and a jacket with stripe, this may be too busy for some of you, but the pink and the blue paisley tie gives it an attitude and makes it look very provocateur.  
Pocket square's very important, always wear one, adds character and puts an outfit together. Its more important when you're not wearing a tie, compliments the shirt and the jacket.
A nice classic bag (briefcase) adds beauty to a tailored suit, makes a businessman like impression. Absolutely necessary for an interview.

Black Pinstripe Suit

A black pinstripe suit, a white collar shirt with pink, black and white stripes. The focus here's the jacket's sleeves length, should never cover the shirt's sleeves. Show the shirt's details.
Again right good sleeve length, not too short or too long.
Try a double (full) knot tie with a Dimple. It makes women smile. 

Blue Suit Mixed With Taste

A mixture of color and stripes with a plain blue suit. Pocket square's crucial guys. you have to wear it.
Pocket square again guys; just image women without make up!
Cuffs length, on a trim trouser, should barely touch your shoes. Brown shoes are very important, wear them with anything except black outfit. (Classic look).
Stripes socks! I love them. An expression of personality, add attitude to the look (Richard James and Paul Smith are my favor ones).

Introduction

I believe in men's fashion.  I have created this fashion blog as a place for discussions, a place where every fashion loving person can have their say and share their thoughts with myself and other people around the globe. This is about having fun, because fashion is an art, its fun. I see that North America men are more and more aware of their surroundings, they want to look good.  That's a very good sign.  With all my experience in fashion, i've decided to build this blog to share my knowledge and my observations, and of course, to also learn from others. Fashion's like anything, we always learn something new. This blog is to educate North American men about how suit should be worn, how it should fit and how men can look both professional and elegant.  I hope that I can be a help to you all.  Enjoy!
