  • Working from home in the summer

    Working from home in the summer

    Or working from the coffee shop, a cool bar, the beach, the mountains, with good mobile connectivity the opportunities are nearly limit less.

    Nearly as limitless as your options for spots to work from are your choices for attire.

    If you have a lot of meetings you need to have the camera on, I would suggest wearing some kind of shirt (button down or dressier), if you are only producing information/ content remotely and mainly interacting via mail or chat there is nothing wrong with a good fitting, clean t-shirt.

    If you feel like it, you can always throw a blazer on top or switch the chino/ jeans for slacks (light traveler wool or some linen blend).

    In general I tend to get less sweaty/hot in cotton chinos/ wool slacks compared to wearing jeans.

    Enjoy your day! Have a good one.

  • Monday fun day

    Monday fun day

    Grey suit, blue/white striped shirt, navy tie and light brown accessories. Perfectly dressed for any workplace, destined to catch some funny looks from the colleagues showing up in cycling/ functional clothes made from shredded plastic bottles and Birkenstocks.

    To stand out has some pros and cons to it, but if you own your style and have some good story on your why for dressing well the pros outweigh the negative aspects.

    Keep it fun & don‘t take other people’s opinions to seriously!

  • Grey Suit – watched to much John Wick

    Grey Suit – watched to much John Wick

    ..but not enough to go full charcoal. Suit is from Mango Tailored and I was quite stunned by the quality and the fit. Pants are not as narrow as Massimo Dutti or Hugo Boss and I got the suit with a 30% discount. Only the trousers needed length adjustment, length of the jackets arms is quite good, a bit too much padding in the shoulders, but that’s currently en-vogue I guess.

    Maybe next time I will put it with black derbies, a black shirt and a charcoal tie. For the complete John Wick look I’m then only missing the hair.

  • Too hot for real pants

    Too hot for real pants

    Outfit of the day, shorts, white/blue striped shirt and loafers, plus a warm cardigan for the evening. Off to visit the German museum in Munich – Flugwerft and afterwards some good BBQ and maybe a Glas for wine or two..

  • Suitup – without a shirt

    Suitup – without a shirt

    Today‘s outfit for the chilly morning. Blue cotton suit with a blue turtleneck and loafers. I like this style when it‘s either cold outside or when I run out of freshly ironed shirts and am in a hurry. Or when I don’t feel like closing the buttons, or when I’m overly lazy.

    In the afternoon the fit will be more functional, since we use the last vacation day for a bike tour.

    Enjoy your day, have luck hunting for new perfect additions to your wardrobe!
