Autumn Reds

That Dapper Chap shows us todays look incorporating Autumnal reds.


While the evenings are getting noticeably cooler, the days are still somewhat warm. Even though we're right at the end of September Autumn hasn't quite made his way into our lives just yet. So, with that in mind I thought I'd wear this unlined red cotton blazer, as it will probably be the last time this year that I get to wear it.


To go with the autumnal red theme I chose a retro print shirt and a knitted tie, both adding interest and texture to the look. The boots are also burgundy and are a resent acquisition and one I am most pleased with.


You'll see under the boots I'm wearing some red and navy polkadot socks which continue the colour story with the blue of the jeans and the retro red and blue print of the shirt.




 



My accessories today were my Daniel Wellington watch with handmade burgundy leather strap, some burgundy and navy beads and my new favorite thing: my 'Dapper Chap' tie bar with was sent to me by instagrams greycardigan. I didn't take pictures of the watch and bracelets as I totally forgot! But I did get a picture of the tie bar.

A Twist Of Lime

I must be getting old! One late night in London for LC:M and I'm tired for two days! What's that about? I have been busy preparing a piece for the blog about my time at the Lutwyche SS15 preview but I'm waiting for photographs from my fellow attendee Viktor Mann of The Man And Glam Blog. So watch this space.



Today's look was entirely created around this tie! It's one of four that I bought while on a trip to Leeds. Instagrams Oneyounggent had one and I liked it so much that I went on a hunt for it, but I didn't expect to find four different designs!



I picked the lime colour out of the tie as an accent for today's look and pulled out a lime coloured bracelet, lapel pin, pocket square, nato band for my watch, socks and even laces for my blue suede brogues.
