Outfit of the day that’s meant to have an impact
So here’s a bit of a throwback for you guys, a friend of mine recently acquired a new lens for her camera and she had asked me to be her test subject and to give her some pointers. Since i’m so nice and awesome, I obviously said yes (haha).
Here’s some of the shots! Enjoy!

Summer’s here and it’s looking to be a real hot one! For the past few weeks the weather has been consistently hitting over 20 degrees and i’m loving it! This past May 22, I had to go for a friend’s Convocation and help take photos of her family as she celebrates her momentous day. As for me, I didn’t feel like wearing a full suit as i’m going to be taking photos and wanted more comfort and not to get too hot as well. I still wanted to dress up since it is not just a regular event.
So here’s what I did.
My first piece of inspiration was my white V Neck shirt from H&M then I worked my way down to my Club Monaco pants.
Since I have a whole white thing going on already I decided to add my white Ferragamo Shoes and added some other bright colors with my socks. (You know I always have to get funky with my socks).
I just have to praise Ferragamo for this awesome shoe of theirs, I love the logo it’s very simple and it doesn’t scream their brand, it just looks like a very nice emblem on the shoe. Super clean detail!
So while we got the shirt, shoes, socks and pants out of the way it was time to get on the suit, and since I noticed the blue emblem on the shoes, I decided to wear a blue suit to go along with it. This suit was part of a bespoke suit that was made for me by “Be Custom Suited” and the fit is just amazing! With all being said and done, I just added my white Ceramic Citizen Eco Drive watch to complete the whole outfit (I love my Eco Drive also since it runs on any source of light for power, no need for batteries and its not automatic so it’s not pricey also and not as bulky).
So there you go, my outfit for the day when I have to take photos but still want to dress up! haha!
Almost forgot, rockin my awesome pocket square also by Sebastian Cruz Couture!

Most of the people here in Vancouver can relate to this expression on a very regular basis. We don’t have the nickname “Raincouver” for it for a reason. Especially in this time of the year, we can experience a very generous amount of rain coming our way. This doesn’t mean that our sense of style and our rain gear should suffer. I notice that most people here in Vancouver stick to the very safe and simple black umbrella to protect themselves from the rain, but I have a solution for you.
Why just stick to the norms of a black umbrella when you can make someone’s day with a funny yet still stylish and classy one.
The strong wood handle, wood shaft, ferrule, and wooden tips help prevent wind damage. I haven’t tested this guy against strong winds yet but with the feel of its construction I can say it stands a good chance of handling the occasional winds of Vancouver.
Let me just say, it does look good when matched with a pair of tan coloured shoes and brown belt because of the wooden accent on the umbrella. It just gives it a very vintage yet modern feel.
So the next time you buy an umbrella for yourself or even as a gift for someone you might want to consider this umbrella. I got this at Kent Street Apparel which is a Vancouver based online store.

So fall is now here and there’s no escaping it. Cold weather is upon us bit if you are not in the mood to wear a big overcoat just quite yet and want to stick to just wearing your suit jacket, adding a vest usually does the job. It helps with keeping you warm without adding much bulk to your outfit. It doesn’t hurt either that having a 3 piece suit outfit looks classy. When you’re outside you’ll be warm enough and if you’re indoors and find that it’s a bit hot, then you can just take out your jacket and still look styling with your vest. Never forget one of my favourite accessory to any outfit as well, the socks!
This line is often uttered by women “bad hair day” but us guys have it as well. I encounter it more often than not especially when I haven’t gone to the barbers for a while and my curly hair gets way too unruly. Here’s the quickest and most often used trick to compensate for the dreaded bad hair day, wear a hat! If you want to do it in style though, you can’t just wear any snapback or hat, you want to add some flare to it so why not use a fedora?
This whole outfit was inspired by the first fedora I could get my hands on in my room (lazy, I know, but I like to live dangerously). I slowly worked my way down which led me to my trusty black v-neck shirt (you could never go wrong with a plain v-neck). Black leather belt with a nice simple metallic accent from Danier Leather and black pants from Zara. I shortly realized that I was just wearing all black and someone might think i’m going to someone’s funeral or I turned gothic all of a sudden (nothing wrong with goths and nothing wrong with all black, but It’s still sunny and I still want some color also so how do I make up for it? Socks!!! I gotta have some fun and add color to this ensemble so I went with a puzzle patterned sock and partnered it with some classic style Cole-Haans. To tie-up the whole outfit together, I added one of my favorite suit jacket from Sisley. I just love how it adds some “umph” to the simple yet strong ensemble I have put together.
As you can see from the last photo, my hair was a mess, haha, but it’s ok since I have my fedora 😉
Here’s the round up for the items used in this outfit
So always remember, it’s not the end of the day if your hair isn’t cooperating or you’re too lazy to fix your hair, you can always style it up with a fedora.
