    The most versatile piece in your wardrobe – style the navy blazer

    So if most days you are running around looking like your still stuck in school, with jeans, t-shirt and sneakers just throw a navy blazer over the clean T (preferably without any print) and you will look more sophisticated instantly. Next swap the T-Shirt for a polo and the jeans for a chino and you have a interesting smart casual style. Change the polo for a dress shirt and you are good to go for the office, mostly any office in today‘s world (even bankers stopped wearing suits by now). Pick a light shirt for work, chose a darker one and you have yourself the perfect date night outfit. As for shoes, clean white sneakers can go a long way, but Chelsea or Desertboots will up your game in the causal space. In summer you can go for loafers or boatshoes for a laid-back impression or some sprezzatura. For work I would suggest sticking with derbies, boots or sneakers unless you really plan on sticking out bigtime. Complete and individualize your outfit by adding accessories. A pocket square won‘t hurt, and adding a nice watch or armband is a great idea. Don‘t go crazy with chains or rings please, leave that to the ladies.

    Have a beautiful Sunday, hope you leave this site somewhat inspired.

  • Saturday shopping spree

    Saturday shopping spree

    Not for me, but my better half..

    Pretty classic outfit I think, tan chinos with a navy blazer, really love my Giorgio 1958 driving shoes, very comfy, if walking all day.

    Maybe will lose the blazer later on, depending on how many bags I‘ll need to carry around town.

  • Friday Tieday

    Friday Tieday

    Trying to bring back ties to the workplace, one Friday at a time.

    Navy tie, chino and Blazer, white shirt and sneakers.

    Was able to get off work a bit early today, but Teams and office keep on pinging, made up urgencies and sheer chaos, happy life seems like a distant memory, how did the world work without 24/7 connectivity? Slower, but much more efficient!

    Stay professional, dress like an adult.

  • Back2office blues

    Back2office blues

    Different shades of blue, for another day of video-calls in the office. Could have done everything at home, but more efficient and with the opportunity to enjoy great coffee! Plus at home, if have my own room, at the office I have to share it with 4-6 people, who are also on the phone most of the time.

    Cotton suit still from Massimo Dutti, shirt also, shoes from Giorgio1958, really love their stuff. Tie from Bugatti, inherited it from my dad, who passed away roughly a year ago.

  • Semi-smart Casual

    Semi-smart Casual

    Outfit for today. Usually I don‘t wear jeans to the office, but had to bike there in the morning and streets were still a little wet from the rain. To balance the jeans I added the grey tie, that I inherited from my dad. Navy blazer, most versatile piece in any men‘s wardrobe and loafers / driving shoes to go with the outfit..
