One of the best features of double-breasted blazer is the versatility. I have a couple of blue double-breasted blazers in my rotation and I use them a lot. First of all they can be combined with dressed-up cotton slacks and a tie for more formal occasions. But they are also appropriate to wear even with just a roll neck sweater and sneakers. Last week I wrote about 5 white sneakers to check out for this spring and summer. On Sunday I decided to pick up my old white Superga sneakers and take them out. And I combined them with some denim and blue double-breasted cotton sport coat. Double-breasted blazer - combined casually I bought the pictured double-breasted blazer - made by Suitsupply -...
No new under the sun - that's the first thought in mind when taking a look at the new seasonal look book of Italian Loro Piana. The company has again come up with a collection and seasonal look book that in terms of inspiration and aesthetics does not differ ounce of their high-quality standards. The collection and look book - as usual - underline the ease, elegance and form of Italian style of being dressed-up but still casual and "chic" together with Italian craftsmanship. For upcoming spring and summer the collection shows full range of lightweight garments combining casual and "cosy" gear together with classic elements and style.

February went fast. As usual - a short review of instagram-shots - featuring a few wiwt-lookdowns and a few others. As said earlier I don't update the feed on a daily basis - even though recently I’ve been a bit more active there - but some sneak peeks of what I wear and what I do as well and some other things I find personally interesting can be found from there on more regular pace. So for more wiwt- and other pics - check and follow @dresslikea€‹ On the first week of february I visited Stockholm for business and took the advantage to go and see the new extended shop of Rose&Born, which is now looking better than ever.

I was recently asked (by Mika, the writer of a blog Ohituskaistalla) about job interviews, what to wear for one, to be exact. So for today's inspiration a collage featuring simple and plain outfit that I personally would see suitable to wear for a job interview. And of course this has been done bearing in mind the field - legal services - I work in. But it could also be suitable for consulting, finance or whatever where there is a need to dress up and wear a suit for work. A blue suit, white shirt, black shoes and navy (dotted) tie is a classic combination that I would dare to say fulfill (almost) any dress code there is in terms...
