Men's Monday

Ties are in a class all on their own.
They separate the boys from the men.
They turn the boy next door into the suave mystery man at the local café.

Sophisticated, clean, and classy.
Gentlemen, enough said.

A sophisticated spin on an already classic song.

 lift your open hand  

Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance"

Men's Monday

Sh*t non-fashionistos say:
                "Is that a Murse?"

Lately, I've been obsessed with "statement" pieces, every outfit needs at least one.

That one piece that  turns heads and is greeted with the silent stamp of approval from fellow passerbyers.
That one piece that envokes envy from others who wish they could be in your shoes and be enveloped by your confidence. Where am I going with this you ask?

I have noticed that during my most recent shopping trips downtown, bags have wedged their way to the forefront of my attention. From ogling the Tom Buckle Tote bag and Ernest Alexander messenger bag at Club Monaco, to fogging up the windows at Louis Vuitton on Burrard, or drooling over the Pendleton Patterned messenger bag at Urban Outfitters...*sigh*

...need I say more?

 

Only real men can pull off "bubble gum" pink





One day...

The Biker Jacket

Since getting 'Guns N Roses' tattooed across my chest isn't the most practical way to shed the boy next door look, the biker jacket will have to do. We all have a rebellious side and when you're sick of "toeing the line" and want to add a little more kick to your outer persona; nothing says confident, strong, & looking for trouble like this classic piece.

P.S. Motorcycle not included.

 

The bad boy almost always gets the girl.

I don't know why this band is so underrated. They're amazing and this video is so inspiring. Enjoy!

Men's Monday

Pocket full of dreams

It's that time again! Another Monday is upon us and what better way to kick off the week than with another installment of Men's Monday.

Pocket squares, like all other acessories, can be so effective and eye catching when done with the proper colors & patterns. A great way to make your outfits more finished, unique, and more personalized; be more YOU while pushing the envelope of sophistication. 
You can be loud.
             You can be subtle.
                       You can be neat and crisp.
                                Or, you can be untidy and carefree.

The world is yours when it comes to pocket squares.

"It's the little things that make the big things possible. Only close attention to the fine details of any operation makes the operation first class."

From Jeremy with love

The weather outside is frightful!
....but the clothes are sooo delightful!

Jer here!

Living in the North Pole Vancouver during the Winter months aint easy {and we’re only midway through November!} 

When the cold starts to creep in and the trees begin to shed their leaves, we know it’s time to bring our cashmere sweaters, scarves, and pea coats out of hibernation.

Here's what I'm wearing {and loving} this fall/winter to battle the relentless cold....

Sweaters and cardigans for layering 

Loving shawl necklines + rusty reds and burgundy palettes

Jack[ets] of all trades

In my closet you'll find an everyday casual Mackage bomber and a dressy chic slim-fitting “moto” trench from Zara

                     Little extras...
Classic MUST HAVES in any fashionisto's closet!

White V's and skinny jeans 

                                                Murray Mitchell

 [Ed. note: Don't you think Jer would look fantastic in a beanie?! 

I'm trying to persuade him to rock it out!]

Circle scarves, wool scarves, cashmere scarves…scarves, scarves and more scarves! 

The Conveyor Belt

BOOTS! {Hunters for the rain of course...}

And let's not forget the newest addition to my wardrobe and latest obsession….

My genuine leather Steve Madden combat boots!
