Can you wear white trousers during fall and winter? Especially in the Nordic countries that can be challenging. In this post I give you one example on how to wear white trousers casually and how to pull them off on cloudy fall weekend.
And this time it would have been too cold to go without socks - even for me.
Finally (just in time before the black Friday and Christmas) it has happened as Sauma just today opened their web shop @ http://shop.vaatturiliikesauma.fi/ The selection of the web store covers most of the items available at the store though there are some exceptions. For example shoes and accessories are excluded at this point. The brand selection includes names (and pieces) that partly are not so commonly and widely found online such and Gran Sasso, Sonrisa and Berwich. In addition there are sport coats by Lardini, overcoat and suits by Tagliatore outerwear by Herno and knits by John Smedley. Congrats to Olli and Tuomo for the launch and congrats for everyone that now are able to get their share from their selection....

Family business since 1924 The original brand called MAN was founded in Madrid...
Taking a look to the recent takes via instagram as I’ve unfortunately been too busy to post more frequently during the last weeks. Will try to do my best to get back on track. As said before, I don't update the IG-feed on a daily basis 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.
