Camo Shorts
The thing with camo is that pulling it off is not as easy as it seems: besides the wide array of pattern and color variations, you still need to incorporate it in an intelligent fashion to make it sophisticated. Apart from the obvious choice of garment or accessory, which bears a huge impact when it comes to scale, you should consider the types of camo available (woodland, digital, etc) and see which works best for you.
These woodland camo shorts are a nice twist on traditional Summery alternatives and I love breaking the whole military theme by adding more classic items, such as a dress shirt, sports jacket and tasseled loafers. In the end, this eclectic mix is what makes the whole look visual appealing…

Spring Tweed
Although tweed is, in its essence, a wintery fabric, its amazing texture and feel shouldn’t be restricted to one season alone. During transition periods as the one we’re currently experiencing, you’ll be facing colder days when the comfort and panache of a tweed blazer is unmatched. I found this vintage double breasted version at Broadway Market, London, for €30,00 and fell in love with instantly, plus no alterations were needed. Thrown over a shirt and a lightweight cardigan is the perfect alternative for colder days. Worn out slim fitting jeans, black cap toe oxfords and a cashmere scarf make for the rest of the look.
