Fool-Proof Pieces For Your Guy




So the guy in your life might not look like he was pulled out of the street style pages, but don’t fret, we’ll help you get him dapper in no time.

For Spring 2011, we love clean lines and nautical inspirations for city life and rough and tumble rustic pieces for cottage weekends.

City Dwelling
Keeping the layers to a minimum is key for (literally) breezy summer style. After all, we have to take into consideration that guys tend to sweat a lot! Khaki-coloured shorts and a tailored button-up are a smart combo when offset with quirky sunnies and canvas boat shoes. To top the look off, a vintage watch is an interesting take on modern-day time telling.

Help your guy pick out comfy, stylish basics that he’ll be able to throw into a weekender and look fab wherever he’s headed for the long weekend. Americana classics like jean jackets and moccasins are perfect paired with simple cotton separates and original Ray-Ban Wayfarers.
