On the last Saturday of May we had the pleasure to host our first ever #tyylit-kevätpäivä event. I'm happy that around 60 guys interested of men's style visited the venue and we had the pleasure to host Saman Amel and Italigente, two great Swedish #menswear and footwear-brands for the first time in Helsinki.
Big thanks for everyone who joined us, it was a great pleasure to see some many familiar faces but also to meet new people and gain new friends with the same passion and interest. Stay tuned as there will be new events coming up later this year.
Shots from the event are now up and live. Check the full range of pictures can be found @tyylit.fi.

The jacket is made by Italian Gutteridge. I bought it two years...

Mr. Porter for example already started summer sale on their American website and if everything goes as usual, Europe will follow in a couple of weeks.However, just because the weather keeps getting warm and sun starts shining more and more does not mean you shouldn't wear a jacket. It just means you should swap out your lined, all-weather, dark colored heavy wool and flannel suits and sport coats for something that's a bit more easy and lightweight. That means unlined, unstructured jackets with more casual details such as patch pockets and 3-roll-2 button closure....
One weekend, as well as one more month again gone. Thanks for everyone who made it to the #tyylit-kevätpäivä on Saturday, pictures and report coming up later. Starting the week with monthly review of shots featured at instagram, including some wiwt-lookdowns as well as a few others shots from last month.As some of you have probably notices the update rate on the blog has been a bit slower recently - state of affairs I'll try to fix back on track in the near future. However I try to keep at least my instagram fairly active - so for more wiwt- and other pics - check and follow @dresslikea€‹. And just to remind (and as a little heads-up), in two weeks the feed will...
Last fall we decided to start shooting some seasonal #tyylit-lookbooks and continued the project for this spring and summer.
