Pairing neutral's

Pastelling dudes 101












Photographer: Rachel Marie from Jag Lever

Jogunshop white blazer (similar HERE) Armani watch (in brown here) Cottontreats reversible bowtie (HERE) Topman dress shirt (similar here) TigerofSweden trousers (similar here) TommyHilfiger oxford shoes (here))


I'm using pastelling as a verb because It's very, very appropriate in this situation. Why do men steer clear from light, delicate colors such as baby blue, beige and pink? I'll tell you why, it's a blow to their masculinity and they immediately think they're labeling themselves as "Gay". Well news flash DUDES, it's 2013 and it's time to change it up. PLUS tan, summer skin looks great against muted tones such as the ones I'm wearing above. Take some risks, go to H&M and initiate pastelling immediately. I typically like to stay in the light hues during the styling process but I wouldn't be opposed to a pop of bright color such as neon (maybe for socks?)


keep an open mind

  1. I completely agree. I think everyone should embrace and be comfortable in their sexuality. I believe we are all connected and resides in all of us much of the same aspects in spirit. There is a whole spectrum in one's individuality readily open to be explored and would be a shame if it wasn't fully expressed since it wouldn't be the real "you". And I think pink looks attractive on guys, especially with blue eyes with a bit of a tan. If I had them I would totally rock the hell out of pink, lol. Oh and your outfit looks great as always. You somehow made neutrals really stand out (which is a bit of a paradox), only a bit over those dreamcatchers because I'm completely smitten with them and their always pretty badass.

  27. It is so refreshing to see a fashion blog that is written by a man, so thank you for that! Also, I really like your style and your ability to think critically about the fashion trends (or lack thereof) of today. There is no question that I will be coming back to see what else you come up with.
