Style Shots—Classic Menswear Fall Edition
Photography by: Swabreen Bakr
I caught up with David P. Lochner over at one of the best vintage shops that caters exclusively to men, Briar Vintage in Old City, Philadelphia. Love the fur detailing on his coat and the textured socks. As always with menswear it’s fun to see what details are emphasized with the color schemes, in this case the yellow pocket square pulling out the yellow in the plaid pants was a great touch.
Style Shots—Beau & Co. Pre-Fall. Chambray Pt. II
Photography & Words by: Swabreen Bakr
Continuing our summer chambray series with Beau & Co. custom clothing. Here is an example of transitioning a Summer look into a Pre-Fall look.
Michael Beaumont says,
The first look is for those hot summer days, spent relaxing in the city with friends, or even at the beach. We paired the chambray shirt with a pair of unlined cotton shorts, reminiscent of the traditional khaki and finished the outfit off with a pair of blue suede loafers and a matching cotton belt. It’s an easy look to dress up or down, just by rolling up the sleeves and tucking in the shirt, you can go from a relaxed coffee shop outfit, to a night at the bar.
The second look is for those late August days when the sun starts waning sooner and early September nights out that call for a jacket to hold off a crisp Fall chill.
Michael adds,
Again using the chambray shirt as the base, we opted for a medium weight faille/bengaline short, in navy, paired with cream full canvas blazer and matching tasseled loafers. Another very versatile outfit that dressy enough to get you into a bar or restaurant at dinner, but also casual enough for wearing throughout the day. The weight of the fabrics used are prefect for that time of year, all are thin, but work really well to trap in a little warmth when layered together.
