It's not what you wear but how you feel
I focus my blog on brands mostly unrivalled in quality. With a strong legacy an exciting and rich history. But what bothers me a bit in the last weeks that from my posts, the psychological effect brought to you by beautiful clothes that hold shape and quality for many years. Because it's not just what you wear but how to wear it as well.
I try to make it short and informative for today, a promise I try to keep, but I truly deliver it a few days. For me, it is exciting to dress nicely, dress to paying respect to the situation and people I meet. They all deserve it. And if you want to live and be surrounded by an exciting environment, the least you can do is contribute to its beauty – with your attire and your behaviour.
Talking tailoring, imagine how many hands needed to touch your made to measure suit before its finish to perfection, including your local's tailor finishing touch. Spalla Camicia shoulders, without lining to survive warm days, every step only challenge tailor more and more. Bespoke is even more exclusive due to its nature that fewer people are working towards better results. That is also why I love the passion used to make my Colhay's shawl collar cardigan, so many pieces of information and knowledge behind one piece in the wardrobe.
I also enjoy the appropriateness, and at the same time, it is the subject that bothers me most. I like to wear Nike dry-fit shirts and trousers with an Under Armour storm jacket on the golf course. But that's it – on the golf course. I probably never understand why I see people in sport dress in a restaurant on Friday evening. If I'd met them on the first tee, I probably said to myself, "Hmm, nice outfit ". However, it's pretty crucial to building a "feeling "of what is appropriate and how it changes when circumstances change.
A rule to live by could be "One can never be overdressed ". I always imagine some decadent sons of a wealthy businessman come up with this saying, although I like it. One must consider it, of course, with common sense. The way I see it, it doesn't mean a black tie in a pub. I think of it as adding a touch of a more formal piece will do no harm. Such as a shawl collar cardigan to shorts and polo shirts. Or while wearing chinos and shirts, adding a tailored jacket will undoubtedly make the whole smarter. By the way, now in the summer, a substitute could be a linen jacket, for example.
So much to less formal outfits. Surely I understand, and if I am mistaken, you have my admiration that you will not likely wear a 3-piece suit just for a walk around the park. I would, but not many others. Still, these are usually reserved for more formal occasions such as wedding or evening plans. So next time at the wedding, try to wear a 3 piece suit with your best tie instead of your 2- piece no tie. You'll see that your mood pops up a bit. And you know, whatever, to dress a bit up in your typical day and as your brain will perceive it as a special occasion, it'll cheer your day up. I bet it will.
Yours Sincerely,
Denis
