Our Legacy S/S 09

I like swedish Our Legacy's new collection, they know how to put a little scandinavian flavor to the classic preppy style.

Their collection is based on colorful, funky shirts and bowties worn with a pair of really short shorts and a crewneck sweater.

There also seems to be a lot of pink (light and hot). 

...And be sure to wear canvas shoes again this summer.

Mr. Luca Rubinacci

This guys knows how to wear patterns and colors, and still look very elegant.

This is that sprezzatura I've been talking about!

Watch and learn guys:

Blue shirt, blue gloves and a blue tie, not to mention the purple scarf matching to the lining of the jacket.

Summer cool

Definitely not an easy look to pull off, but looks great on him.

Seersucker Cool

How to wear a seersucker? 

Wear the jacket and the pants separately, leave the real thing for true southern gentlemen.

And about the colors; the basic black-white striped is cool, but if you want to stand out a bit more, go for a blue-white or a red-white striped one.

Jacket: Marc Jacobs

Shirt: Forzieri

Silk Scarves

I have seen a lot of cool cats rock a silk scarf lately,  I also have one that I wore a few times this fall. 

I think it's time to start wearing it more often. ..
