Shop till you drop...
Folks,
with the german summer seemingly being a twin of autumn (rain all day long, winds blowing, etc.), i already started preparing my textile cabinet for the upcoming fall season. I have ever been a fan of Polo Ralph Lauren´s youthful sub-brand "Rugby", but refrained from buying stuff so far because of their rather sophisticated prices...until today. I just couldn´t hold myself back when i saw those two beauties:
And a pair of burgundy tassle loafers....to really bring it to the edge:
There might be more to come...we´ll see.Those beauties, probably...both by french company Markowski.
Or yet another pair...like this one:
Anyway, i have been wearing clothes today...daredevil that i am. Here you go:
And now: off for the weekend...

Merciless heat
Folks,
it has been brutally warm today, so going sans sock was most appropriate (while making sure one still would look fly :-))...
To all of my followers: sorry i couldn´t keep up the speed posting lately...i´ll resume to it after the office mess has been cleaned, i´ll promise!

Enough summer now?
Folks,
after a tremendous friday´s party night at the Comet and a saturday full of sun, good wine and great chatter with my love´s colleagues, i had to get up early this morning for yet another client meeting. Was pretty warm, so blues, whites and reds were justified.
The comments:
@Mike: yeah, i guess she was, kind of at least. Trou are made from italian linen (at least the lable reads like that)
@superpeanut: i´m glad you start to accept them as a part of our relationship :-)

A bavarian mix and match
Folks,
i usually dress to satisfy my own satorial likes, nevertheless i find it quite amusing to receive comments on my everyday get-up, may they be criticizing me or praising my style...today´s shirt-tie combo provoked my fellow colleagues to call it "bavarian from head to toe". Well, the shirt certainly could be used with Lederhosen, alas it has french cuffs...
The "mix and match" as indicated in the title above grounds on the fact that i matched the shirt to the shoes (red-red), the socks to the ps (green-green) and the tie to the jeans (blue-blue). Well, i am trying hard ;-)
Anyway, here´s what the guys named "bavarian":
@Scott: i´d be more than happy to give it to you, if you like it. It´s by Luciano Barbera :)

Fooled by conditions
Folks,
i totally got fooled by conditions today: i thought it to be warm and sunny, albeit it had been freezing and chilly to the bones...wasn´t the best idea to go sockles...
Anyway, i liked today´s colourwork.

La Crie de la soie
Folks,
the style-savy amongst you know what the title refers to, but for all the peeps who are not familiar with this expression, i´ll explain it: this term refers to the "scream" a silk knit tie lets out when you squeeze it tightly...that sound is a sign of good quality, so if you ever see someone squeezing silk knit ties in your preferred local men´s wear shop, you know what the guys´s doing there :)
Best part of it: i only paid 10 bucks for this lovely burgundy knit one...awesome!
Some more foolery with accessoires today...a golden collar pin (watch out, Marco!), a golden tie clip with a rider on it and a flowery pocket square.
Spring justifies it all, i guess...
By the way: a new addition to the shop has been made...a linen jacket by H&M, size 36/46...check it out!

Spring is in town
Folks,
yet another sunny day in DüDo. Spent some time outdoors, went to Oxfam to donate a suit and a jacket and afterwards had a quick step into P&C. Guess what, another tie blow out :)...seized the opportunity and bought two ties for 10€ (yeah!) and linen pocket square. Pretty cool design, nay?
Went with a blue cord suit today, a woolen knit tie and a double-breasted vest. No, not Julian´s, this one´s going to be seen in here next week :)
