Here’s a interesting way to do some Spring cleaning by Bobella. A great guide to open up your closet, you’ll either HANG IT, TOSS IT OR DONATE IT! TTG
By now I’m sure we’ve engraved in your head the necessary suit colors needed in your closet, well it’s time for a break in order to have a little fun. Get creative with your blazer and select colors that not only go well with your complexion, but also can be matched easily with other clothing and accessories you might have. Noticed we mentioned “blazer” and not an entire suit ensemble, the purpose for that is because having a suit comprised of certain colors might not go too well. You want to be selective about what colors you get for an entire suit, and if you’re not too positive about that, then you can always fall back on the blazer. TTG

Different body shapes call for different fits in jeans. You never want to go too big nor too small, find a balance and make that work for you. Selecting jeans isn’t like bringing your slacks to your tailor, you want to get jeans closest to your fit to not have to deal with the hassle. Take a look at the guide and get to know your body better. TTG
The thing about a great tailored suit is that it can serve you for many different purposes, and although to many they may all seem cookie cutter, they can all look personalized if you learn to put your style to use. It can be as professional as you want or as free as you allow it to be, choose what makes you comfortable. TTG
Many fail to understand that wisdom is gained over time. The older tailored gentleman can offer us knowledge that we cannot find in any book or blog. It is not about following trends or remaining modern to the time period you are in, it is about how you are able to apply your style through generations and still make it look good and unique. TTG
Every stage of your life has purpose, so don’t look or turn back, just enjoy and treasure the next step. TTG
It is possible to lounge around in a suit. Looking and feeling comfortable in what you’re wearing is what others see as confidence. You never want to look like you are trying to hard to pull something off, that’s when you’ll receive looks for the wrong reasons. TTG
In order to be an educated tailored gentleman, one must specialize and take pride in being able to properly name articles of clothing, and in this case, hats. Here are some of the most popular hats throughout gentleman history. Be able to distinguish a Pork Pie from a Campaign hat and you’re one step closer to being a tailored gentleman. TTG
White pants are for the bold and daring, and can be tastefully done if the color isn’t overdone. When dealing with white pants, one must know to keep everything else as minimal as possible, although accessories and bags are a go for the all white treatment. Just beware of the Spring/Summer stains that can occur at your local BBQ’s, but if you do get one, be on the lookout for our post on how to remove the most common stains. TTG
