It was a day for socks. Yep, and you know I'm not big on socks, though yo wouldnt think looking into my sock drawer.. See, in true Cape Town style the weather had turned on us and dropped 10deg over night, but it was still fancy friday. I started this outfit with the socks, because … Continue reading Fancy Friday - Grey, green and blue
Deep V and deep purple
How do you stay fancy without sweating all day? It's a real thing. As the weather starts heating up here on the tip of Africa I start finding it more difficult to wear a tie.

Old Tee and new laces

I love … Continue reading Blues and Browns

It's been a while since I've been able to dress up for #FancyFriday. It was also still my first week at work, but it was time to whip out a bow tie. As you can tell, Cape Town is still a little cold, and when I say a little, I mean a lot. Good thing … Continue reading #Fancy Friday - Grey & Checks with coffee

I've been loving denim shirts for a while now, and am moving on from the canadian tuxedo to a … Continue reading Sunday Casuals
