Shirt, chinos, and belt by Ralph Lauren, watch by Daniel Wellington, sunglasses by Prada. _________________________________________________________________ Yes, I got a little inspired by Scream Queens on this one… You have to like attention to wear a vibrant color like yellow. This shirt was hanging in the store and I was immediately drawn to it . Yellow is such a fun, sunny and positive color, it is my favorite color in general, i feel this color needs to be everywhere. This casual shirt from the new Ralph Lauren spring collection is definitely one of my favorite pieces, I pair it with navy chinos and a tan leather belt that looks fantastic with this two pieces, I am very happy with this outfit. Where would I take this look? Brunch, country club, breakfast or lunch with the family… it’s a classic, preppy look… Ivy League-ish if you will. The basic formula always work: colorful bright top and a solid neutral on the bottom or you can do the opposite. I have this flower pants I got last spring, they’re sitting on …

SPRING IS HERE

Published by

Leather Jacket, Polo Shirt, Jeans, shoes, belt by Ralph Lauren, watch by Daniel Wellington, sunglasses by Komono. _________________________________________________________________ For this outfit I picked the brightest polo I found inside the store and then designed the whole outfit around it; I love the orange, I knew I was going to one of the Golf Courses so I kept thinking about the contrast with the green grass will look amazing and it did. I paired this with gray jeans, to “tone” down the orange a bit, the leather jacket was the last addition but it gives a little edge to the outfit, from preppy brunch to a rebel preppy going to brunch, you know what I mean? Leather jackets always give you attitude and they’re classic pieces. By chance the shoes matched the jacket and it looks great, I usually don’t match pieces but this felt right. All these pieces are available at the store located at Renaissance Mall or online. Isaiah Stomp did a wonderful job taking all this pictures, thank you.
