Don't pack the chunky knits and extra large scarves in just yet...

With the persistence of the cold weather I guess we would have to hold on a little bit longer before we can begin to put away the heavy clothing...until then stay fly as such, brighten up the gloom with some navajo neck warmers.

INDIVIDUALISE your Rolex go BLAKEN.

  •  "Diamond-Like-Carbon-Coating" - DLC-coating - which is patented, and Blaken is the only company to apply it in this form anywhere in the world.
  • + 16 days for a Blaken to undergo all the refining procedure processes.
  • Procedures only possible in Germany.
  • The result: A perfect jewel-like surface with a shine and toughness that is scarcely matched anywhere in science and technology.
  • The DLCC-technology: developed as protective wear in motorsport and for aeronautical & aerospace technology, and also in medecine.

The Blaken Refinement:
  • Up to eight times harder than Rolex watchsteel
  • Virtually scratchproof and corrosion-resistant
  • Chemical resistant
  • Can be worn next to skin (no allergenic materials)
  • Blaken Logo on the face

BLACK will always be the 'new' BLACK...regardless of the season.

Put that all black on blast, add some gold, camel/tan, black patent, animal print or anything to use the black as a canvas.

SPRINGing...

Fits for a beautiful saturday late spring afternoon. This is how your linen double breasted jacket should fit, how crisp your white shirt should be, how the base of your pants should be sitting just on your ankles and those are the sort of shades that should be protecting your eyes from the sun.

SUIT SUPPLY S/S '14...the gift that keeps giving.

 This light brown pure linen double breasted coat is spring perfect, versatile and classic. Beautiful is the one word that sums it up. The linen blend army body warmer is equally as versatile, worn underneath a coat or by itself its still stylish and functional, throw it in the mix with some tailored jeans and either of the braided or suede tassle loafers and you are good to go and turn a few heads. Spring needs to hurry up.

The Double Breasted winter coat.

The DB coat is the sort of body amour that can successfully keep one warm in this unfriendly weather. Invest in one or two if you haven't already. I suggest Tan and Navy for colour. Keep warm stay fly.

This particular style with the short sleeve BUBA (top) and the top hat has seen a big come back with the new generation. Picture source, Marc Riboud.

That LANVIN coat!

Not the biggest Lanvin fan but this fur lined coat is super nice. The price tag is far from pretty though, tagged at $5,536 guess I will be admiring from a long distance.

WIWT: What I Wore Today.

To build a well rounded wardrobe in my opinion will always be a work in progress, it is never really done till you can't shop anymore. Over the years you will hold on to certain things while you discard others. Sometimes a new scarf and jumper might bring an old pair of trainers back to life and they all compliment one another perfectly. As one gets older you realise less quantity and more quality is very important. Timeless key pieces keeps your wardrobe more alive and less cluttered.
