Thanks a lot Fashion We Like for the opportunity!
On Saturday I wrote shortly about the spring and summer collection by The GIGI. Inspired by that came up with a collage featuring an outfit that would be ideal for a warm, casual summer weekend.
The blue Art suit features a little diamond pattern, giving the shirt a nice texture and the Gigir shirt is picked in classic color but with the mao collar it also keeps the outfit fully casual. Slip-on sneakers are a good alternative to bring a little freshness and blue tote bag by Filson keeps the color scheme monochromatic and restrained.

However what usually is underlined are jackets (sport coats & blazers) and trousers.

Time to head back to work and office tomorrow. Before that a set from the past weekend featuring this time a bit more color than usual. Color in celebration of Easter - how to wear purple As said many times - wearing bright colors should not be an end in itself but of course sometimes there are occasions that it is alright to wear some a bit more bold. An Easter could be described as that kind of occasion. As we on Saturday headed for a coffee to the city I decided to test my new G.Abo Napoli sport coat and trousers by Rose&Born which I also got last week from alterations. After some contemplation I decided to combine them...
