New Feature: Look of the Week

Wow, I've really been neglecting my blog!  Well, I've decided to do a 'Look of the Week' feature as I'm already the go-to guy between my friends on what they should wear for their night out/wedding/birthday party/bbq/etc! So I might as well put a look of the week for all you lot too!

I've gone for a military theme as I picked up a similar pair of trousers in United Colours Of Benetton whilst over in Barcelona; they're a pair of dark green skinny cargo trousers and I think they're a great look over the summer and will definitely transfer to the autumn/winter looks.

Ok, so here we have a pair of Slowear Incotex slim fit cargo trousers, a Neil Barrett herringbone blazer with contrast leather sleeves, a pair of Stubbs & Wootton velvet slippers, a Valentino slim fit studded white shirt, Brioni knitted tie and a Mulberry woven leather belt (all found on Mr.Porter)

It's a statement look without being too in your face as the colour palette is very subtle.  If you think this is too brave of a look then ease yourself in by swapping the cargo trousers for chinos of a similar colour or lose the blazer and tie.  Alternatively, if you want to make it stand out even more change the tie for a bright orange (green and orange work great together) or a loud pocket square.  Also, if you're not a fan of the slippers swap them for the new Valentino sneakers or a pair of Jack Purcell's which will look great as a daytime look too.

I'd love to hear some feedback from this look - maybe you've tried a similar outfit (send me photos!) and I'd be happy to answer any style questions you have!

Enjoy!
