BGOL SARTORIALISTS: A thread

Re: GQing yourself

Lol the pants are atrocious but I only have the Shawl Cardigan, I couldn't find a picture of the Cardigan by itself,,,

What would you rock with the cardigan?

With a cardigan, you can dress it up or dress it down. To keep it dressy casual, pair it with a crisp v-neck tshirt in either white, grey, heather tan, a burgundy, and lighter shade of blue. You can also try a very thin Henley underneath. As for pants, I'd go for fitted jeans, chinos, or casual cords.

For a dressier look, pair it with a crisp dress shirt no tie. Add a tie, and your neck is simple too clustered and tight IMO. The look may work for you, but I tend to remove small things (ties, unbottoned collar or cuffs) to lighten up my outfits.

Re: GQing yourself

Oh, this guy looks like Robert Duvall in the Godfather.I have a hat similiar to that

This guy comes off looking kind of jokey. He needs to get rid of the hat and the pocket square and he would be ok.

It sucks when old men kick your ass in the fashion sense department.

What can I say, he looks great, a dapper gentleman. Seersucker forever!

This old man needs a brighter or darker tie. The tie is too similar to his suit. Wearing a light color suit like this you need a contrasting tie. Plus these days in time wearing a seersucker suit is kind of played. If you plan on wearing seersucker, wear the jacket or pant only. Don't wear them together.

This ...... I agree, shawl collar cardigan = no tie cause it looks too busy. Regular cardigan = you can can rock any neckwear.

If you are in UK then HACKETT is the place for you

I checked out their website. They have some stuff I like. Unfortunately they don't ship to the U.S. from their website because I asked them through email. They did say I could do a mail order type deal so I will probably go that route.

For any of the fam that need a reliable shoe for business, I thought I would pass the following along. I just bought a couple of pairs of Allen-Edmond shoes. It's a good looking shoe, but even better is the service they provide where they will re-craft your old shoes for you and make them look new again. Peep the below video!!!! These shoes are a good investment for any business man who has to dress in business attire:

Re: GQing yourself

BOUGHT THESE LAST YEAR FROM BARKERS..LONDON REGENT ST

I was in London and wandered into a Barker shop. I purchased 3 different styles of the Arthur Barkers. In my opinion, they are very well constructed shoes.

Mine say that they are handmade, have beautiful beveled waists, and great coloration. I think I paid about 300 British Pounds for each pair.

I would rate them on par with Grenson Masterpieces, and suggest that maybe this limited production line was the precursor, and/or made to the same specs as the Barker Black line.

what needs to be revamped? man i'm just pissed off they sold out of the boots I want in my size.

The Brooklyn Circus/BKc story begins in 2006 in a quaint neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York with the aim to strengthen consumers’ appreciation for classic aesthetics and antique motifs whilst upholding the pillars of modern design within a 100 year plan.With time-tested values of classic American craftsmanship, a love for urban tradition, vintage sensibilities, and an endless search for the timeless silhouette,the BKc has produced garments that bring the past forward into the future while extending an ethos of education, empowerment and authenticity. Founded by graphic designer Ouigi Theodore and developed by an arsenal of visionaries fueled by a common purpose, this bustling junction of style and character is always an experience.

Beyond embracing techniques of timeless craftsmanship and sophisticated simplicity, The BKc fosters creative relationships, providing a social sanctuary for open-minded forward-thinkers. Every cuff of trouser, roll of the sleeves, and peaking pocket square is connected to a greater story, as they’ve succeeded at tailoring not only cloth and fabric, but lifestyles. With flagships now in San Francisco, a Pop up in Sweden and talks for a Sydney Australia presence, The BKc’s inspirational clout has solidified its cult following which has grown exponentially and globally.

Re: GQing yourself

MrPorter is a brand new site with some DOPE high quality shit. Only problem is that most of it is expensive as hell.

Click on Wardrobe Manager and go to the "Essentials" section. Nice little write up about the staples you need when building your wardrobe. Remember you can find what you like here and search for a more affordable version elsewhere.

Good luck.

I take it you're also a GQ subscriber.


No way is it a coincidence that you post this site the same week that it appeared in GQ.

Nah...

The site just launched this week. My chick is on the email list of the female version of the site, www.net-a-porter.com. It's been around for a while so she told me when they launched a mens site.

This damn site is dangerous.

That reminds me to f/ with gq though.

Re: GQing yourself

Corter Leather is selling these leather bracelets where all of proceeds go to the relief efforts in Japan. Quality, handmade, American made.

Each one is $20, and 100% of the proceeds will go to the Red Cross towards relief efforts in Japan. The bracelet is a natural 9oz bracelet, with a hand painted red button to show support. Each comes in a nice cloth bag. Out of respect, there is no branding, no fancy packaging- just a reminder to help and remember.

Re: GQing yourself

Now this Brotha has some serious shit...

he is wearing a french-cuff, that is why there is a gentle roll to the cuff edge.

not sure about the watch. I think it is a nice detail. Depending on the watch it is a show of style. As The guy a little further down in black and half torn shoes (typical advertiser or media, or fashion guy) would use his phone or in my opinion a classic black Swatch with white dials.A rolex or Omega to this works well as it does show that class you want to show with wearing this type of suit.

These sisters have both, individualy, put together outfits that are completely coherent, with each part hitting a similar note - but yet they feel no need to look at all like each other, which is the most awesome part about it.Hope NGOL sisters are taking some notes
