Pocket Squares

President Obama upgraded his formal wear style during a recent state dinner with one piece of white silk, and the first lady... no room for improvement.

Made to Measure at Clusier

Thanks to Pierre, and the rest of the team at Clusier in Montreal, who fitted me for a made-to-measure suit by Samuelsohn earlier this week. I can't (yet) afford going full bespoke, but the MTM experience definitely beats off the rack numbers. More details to come...

Bow Tied and Starry Eyed

What I'm looking at when I don't have time to blog myself: Bow Tied and Starry Eyed. A good place to see what other men's style blogs are up to and some good short editorial content as well.

Take Ivy

The New York Times has a short article about the much sought after Take Ivy that is worth a read: Prep, Forward and Back.

J. Crew

J. Crew is a store that hasn't yet come to Canada, but my lady friend and I were lucky enough to get to shop their summer sales while they were in full swing. One of my best finds was an orange 100% cashmere sweater for...wait for it... $41! My student budget would not allow me to afford the $188 price tag, but the sale that the Rockefeller Centre store has is incredible. If you have the chance to check it out please do, the colours and sizes seem to be going quickly.

Tassel Loafers

On my wish list: Tassel Loafers.
