King of Cool


Essay deadlines, endless lectures, yes, indeed, they're back! We may dread these, but GUYS this should not bring us down. As much as we enjoyed dressing up during summer with our chino shorts, polos and TOM's espadrilles or white Converses, its time to put that period behind us and move on. Especially as the days are shorter and the nights are now longer. Its time to embrace the weekends and make sure we look great - as if we'd settle for anything less. Let's enjoy the crisp breeze and feeling of invincibility that comes with owning the streets, like young heirs to a throne. This season is all about having fun and not coursework. School can wait! This Is The Life Of A Young Socialite. Be a Bad-Boy, be rebellious and bite back at the harsh weather. Many guys only dress for comfort , which is a BIG no no!  Despite that, we must now accept the fact we should also be considering getting some warmth when picking out an outfit. It goes without saying we MUST still add our individual style to the attire we choose to wear. Bear in mind, though, we don't want to be looking like George Clooney, prim and extremely dapper just yet, we are still young! This article is to help you with the transition into winter looks, without losing your swagger altogether. Here Goes…..

Its Maritime
This Autumn/Winter is all about being unpredictable in terms of clothing. This can be associated with the sea, and everything marine. Fishermen are in control of big ships, and are fearless when it comes to facing storms and freezing conditions. In order for us to incorporate this fearless image in our style, we have to ignore the sceptics and nay-sayers and get down to business. We have to think creatively by teaming up clothes that would not necessarily be considered to make a bold statement. Look out for loose fits on slim fits, go wild! If we keep this in mind we can attain that rough, oversized and edgy look, without losing all our debonair. The colours black and navy are in, along with heavy knitted sweaters, worn with fitted bottoms…goes very well together! Here goes, get them clean cut skinny fit jeans paired with heavy jumpers and clean cardigans! Its time to bring out the festive cashmere jumpers we got from our grandparents for Christmas and put it to good use. Items we wear now must also be useful or to be frank there just is no point of wearing them. If the jumper doesn't keep you warm, whats its use?


Get The Look: You’re capable of walking on water once you team a navy parka jacket with a sailor striped granddad top , simple chinos and a chunky ribbed scarf. Finish the look off with a canvas double buckled satchel.








Stay Grounded
Cherish our heritage…we are going back to tradition for inspiration. Fall in love with the basics. Create the country look, using quilted and plaid clothing. This creates a sense of freedom and shows we are in tune with mother earth and nature! Layers and patterns must clash to enhance the rebellious look!
