Airport Fashion – What To Pack For Your Summer Holiday

Airport Fashion

From France to Barcelona to London we are noticing a chic travel trend. I have to say the men were rocking it at each airport. It was nice to see men making a great effort in their travel attire. So what key pieces am I noticing men wearing for 2013? What comfortable travel essentials are men seeking after? First of all what’s the point spending all that cash on clothes. If you can’t show your international counter parts what sense of style you are all about.

Mans Bag

A mans bag is a must now. It’s perfect to keep all your important documents in a safe place, meaning with you. Do you know how many men I see running around at the airport because they have left their passport, phone or wallet some where at the bar? Keep your mansbag small so you then can put it in your hand luggage once your on the plane. Easy to find later.

RIMOWA

These suitcases feel and look great. You can push along so easily, infact running with them as well. But they are so light and you can store so much in them.  I adore the height-adjustable packing dividers. They make it easy to secure items in place and prevent them from getting creased. The hand-luggage has amazing storage and the concept is all about practicality and perfect for any man wanting to step out in travel style.

Jackets

There are immense options now. However for spring summer either a blazer, trench or jean jacket with pockets are so versatile and can be used through out the day till the sun rises. G-star RAW and Diesel Denim have a huge variety of jackets this summer. As for your blazer TOPMAN or ZARA should sort you out here. If you are careful and responsible with your clothes then spend the cash. But don’t if you manage to ruin your jackets or lose it on your travels.

Jeans

Always essential to pack at least three. Go for a dark and light denim. Nice variety for day and night outings. I find sometimes take some old denim trousers and you know how it is when travelling. You get caught up in the buying spirit. So a perfect opportunity to ditch your well worn jeans for a nice updated pair. Your third pair could be perfect when cuffed nice summer look for wherever you are heading.

Shorts

ZARA  have a great choice at the moment. So experiment with what look good on your legs. Some men look good with long short some look better with super short. Go for a linen pair, denim and cotton. So each day is a new refreshing look. Don’t be afraid of floral either. Summer is all about fun, free and a party spirit.

Shirts and T-shirts

I would pack at least five of each. Again once on holiday you may find you will ditch the old shirts for something up beat and new. T-shirts use is only for during the day. Your shorts are great for evening parties. They look good with chinos,jeans and shorts. Have at least one plain shirt. Make sure they match your bottom half.

Shoes

Boat shoes are perfect for summer great with trousers and shorts. Make sure your flip flops are up to trend. You should buy news ones every year. Sandals, it makes my blood boil how many men still wear sock with sandals. DON’T. Common guys sort it out. For night shoes loafers wearing them sock less are so nice and smart.

Parr & Co Watches – Classic Watch For Every Occasion – Kickstarter

Classic Style Watches Are Back

The style of a classic watch is timeless. They seems to play on a completely different level to your standard watch or even the new ‘smart’ watches out there. A classic timepiece always seems to look great with every outfit. Wait, is that completely true? No, its not. One things that most classic-style watches have in common is a permanent strap. This is where Parr & Co Watches are different.

Parr & Co Watches was founded by two lifelong friends from Miami, Florida. After high school, they attended the University of Florida, on the pre-med track. In their senior year of college they decided to delay their plans for Medical School to follow our lifelong dream of starting a collection of watches instead. Fascinated by the trends that expensive Swiss luxury watch brands offered yet being unable to afford them, they set out to create a brand of their own. After endless design thought processes, research, hard work, and hours in the UF architecture lab, they finally established a watch brand, Parr & Co.

Inter-changeable Straps

The issue of having a miss-matched watch strap with your style has all but been eradicated by Parr & Co. With their super easy strap changer it takes no more than 5 seconds to replace your strap. This is something that classic-faced watches were missing. We know that some of the better known ‘Smart Watches’ out there have this facility, but the classic timepieces seem to have been left behind until now. With its complete ease of use, changing the strap on this watch is something you’ll want to do at every opportunity. You’ll always be able to get your complete style right on.

Classic Face

One of the most attractive things about this watch is the overall style and feel. There is such a quietly confident feel about the watch that allows it to be very impressive to the eye. The roman numerals paired with high quality materials add to the feel of a more luxury brand.

Top Poker Players – Signature Styles Worth Millions

Signature Styles

Here’s what we can learn from the signature styles of top poker players. Looking to make an impact at your next poker game? Or perhaps you just want to outsmart the competition? Whatever your motives, we’ve decoded the dress sense of some of the world’s top poker players, so that you can get ahead at your next game.

Phil Ivey –  Casual and Capped

Phil Ivey, a player with millions of dollars to spend on clothing, is a man that is seldom seen without decent threads. Phil is often called the best poker player in the world thanks to his amazing track record, and it’s no wonder he likes to keep himself well presented for each game – he’s in the spotlight and he’s aware that looks count for a lot when it comes to reputation. However, if we take a closer look at Phil’s signature style we can see that it’s not just about wearing the latest fashions. Smart hoodies, shirts and plaid all feature heavily in his wardrobe, and he’s also been known to sport the odd smart jacket too. But there’s one thing which features a lot in his poker attire and that’s his trusty baseball cap. Rather than having one “lucky” cap, he wears different caps, usually with the logo of a big poker name on them. And here’s the secret sauce: he makes the cap look like an effortless part of his outfit, rather than a clever accessory to help his game. You see, lots of poker stars use the humble baseball cap as a tool to shield their eyes from other players. The peak of the cap obscures the face, especially when looking down at one’s cards. It also draws the eye upwards to the logo on the cap, rather than at the player’s face.

Something else Phil’s been spotted with frequently is a large pair of headphones, helping him to focus on his game by blocking out other sounds. The music could also be helping him with concentration, keeping him in just the right state of mind to think about his next move. On a psychological level, the ear phones also help distract other players from watching his facial expressions, as they draw the eye to the periphery of the face instead. They give him a nonchalant look, making him appear relaxed and composed. Something to think about the next time you head off to a poker game.
