5 x Notes for November


To start the weekend and the new month, here’s 5 points to give inspiration and take you through the dark nights based on some pics and points I’ve come up and been inspired myself recently.

1) Play of textures

Fall is maybe the most “giving” and diversed time for playing with different textures, colors and materials especially in terms of accessories.

2) Shades of gray

Remember that grey doesn’t have to be dark and lifeless. The lousy days of November can also be faced with sharp and elegant combinations featuring the color - as done here by Mr. Ignatious Joseph.

3) DB’s, Casentino Wool & Chunky Rollnecks

This is all a man needs. Double-breasted jackets made of casentino and heavy but soft roll neck sweaters are unbeatable option when talking about casual weekend wear.

4) PTBs 

I’ve been lately more and more tempted by the simple and powerful shapes of plain toe bluchers as I’m waiting our #tyylit.fi group mto-order from Meermin to arrive. These Tricker’s Robert in Marron ould maybe need a rubber sole to make in the Finnish weather but otherwise they’re pretty much perfect.

5) Keep it simple

This look by BWS of Drake’s London Clifford Street shop is in it’s simplicity one the most inspirational I’ve personally seen in a while. Nicely balanced colors and materials and as icing on the cake the “pepsi” rolex to crash all the other understatement.
