Had a great dinner last Friday at recently opened Passio - Keittiö ja Baari. This was also the opening for our new series of #tyylit - ravintolakierros we’ll be having at tyylit.fi. The food and service were both first class, a nice way to start the summer weekend.

Usually I try and keep this blog pretty much clothing related but this time I’m making a little exception as couple of weeks ago I got a chance to take part at very nice champagne-tasting hosted by Cuvée club, a company founded by a young Finnish couple who decided to follow their passion and moved to Champagne, Reims in 2013.

Well, who wouldn’t like good company and (free) champagne…
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.

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.

This is one my all-time favorite photos (from Pitti Uomo, by The Sartorialist). Capturing most of my own essentials for this spring. Blue blazer Well, it doesn’t really matter what season are we talking about - this one belongs to every list. It’s only a matter of construction and materials. For spring I personally favor lightweight wools or a bit “washed look” cotton. In the pictured jacket by Boglioli there’s 2% of elastane which makes it a bit more “soft” and easier to deal with for example...
The update rate of the blog has recently been pretty slow. And there’s a reason for that. As many people know I’ve been working with a project called #tyylit.fi for quite a while now. First we launched a forum in the beginning of 2013 and since that we’ve also been working with the idea of a new site that would fill the empty space we think there has been in the #menswear-scene in Finland. And finally last Friday we got it launched. There’s still a lot of work to do when it comes to the layout and little details but still I couldn’t be happier with the result we’ve so far come up with. However it has taken a big...
