Berg&Berg just started their annual online outlet with great savings on previous collections and samples. Until the 8th of June the store will be filled with ties, knitted ties, bow ties, scarves, pocket squares, knitwear, leather goods, belts and socks from previous summer and winter collections, offering 50-70% savings on a wide range of items. Some real bargains out there, especially in terms of the leather goods, cashmere goodies and ties. Took a quick tour and picked some goods that are definitely worth to check out. Prince of Wales wool tie It’s summer but the fall will come eventually.. This one goes can easily be combined as well with suits and sport coats. Subtle choice for “casual business” occasions. Melange silk...
Every Sunday we try to do an inspirational round-up via tyylit.fi-tumblr - based on the pics that I’ve come across during the week or by digging some nice stuff from the archives. This time I decided to pick few things from there to highlight things I find inspirational at the moment. Lightweight sport coat… Wrote a while ago about sport coats for the spring and summer (find it from here). I’m really a fond of double-breasted jackets and this one by G.Abo Napoli (available via Spiga3, which just also started their summer sale today) is one of the nicest I’ve seen for this season. Light colored, soft shapes and featuring bold but still low-key windowpane pattern. White shirts… White shirt is...
Last Wednesday Vaatturiliike Sauma hosted a nice cocktail party, celebrating their 10-year anniversary. What would be better than have few drinks, enjoy good food and be around like-minded people with the same passion and interest. One more time congrats to Olli and Tuomo, not just extremely talented tailors, but most of all great guys and friends who have done a huge job to bring further the #menswear-scene and men’s clothing in Finland. And be sure there’s more to come, so stay tuned and keep an eye on these fellows. My focus was more on enjoying the party than playing with my camera but anyway, here’s few shots and details from Wednesday-evening. And one last shot via instagram. Wearing (if someone...
A while ago, after Pitti Uomo 85 I wrote about THE GIGI, a “newcomer” on the market. The GIGI is a project by Mario and Pierluigi Boglioli who with this new label want to experiment, research and to create new innovations in terms of materials, processing techniques and finishes. Recently I just got a glimpse of their upcoming look book which - even though it’s almost summer - I wanted to share. The pictures seen below really nicely showcase the collection that’s build on softness, maximum comfort, rough textures and sporty feelings without making any compromises in terms of quality. The softness and treatments of fabrics used along with the high degree of handwork invested in each piece results in a...
No meetings means denim (and naturally no socks) in the office. No surprises, playing with simple and solid colors.
As mentioned yesterday, white cotton slacks are one my personal summer staples in terms of any even little more dressed-up occasions. But when it comes to those more casual set ups, four out of five times my choice is a classic field jacket and light colored denim. The rest depends on the day, this time ended up with a lightweight merino-wool crew neck sweater, white button-up to keep the balance and finally spice it up a little with those Buttero tanino-sneakers.
