Velvet slippers

Velvet slippers also known as the Prince Albert slipper, and initially designed as a house shoe for Victorian men hosting formal dinner parties in their homes. There is a very strong trend to get the modern slippers in a modern guy's wardrobe. Brands from Alberto Moretti to Christian Louboutin are pushing these traditional slippers in a fun and twisted way. Most brands allow customers to make personalization's from stitching initials to laser printing one's favorite photograph. It is also very important to state that velvet slippers have replaced patent shoes complimenting tuxedos in a more dapper way.

Barber Wire Midnight Slippers

Great hand made slippers by Matthew Cookson in cotton velvet, with satin quilted lining and leather sole made in England. Should always be worn with short and slim pants or dressy shorts.

Don't let winter stop you from wearing colors

                          

The classical menswear world has come a long way in order to break many boundaries and social taboos regarding image and masculinity. Today we are able to show masculinity by using the bravest colors and combinations. The feminization of men and the masculinization of women in the past decade has contributed a lot to this result. There were certain unwritten rules that everybody went by and wearing white pants with purple socks and bright yellow gloves was not one of this, I can assure you. I think it looks great and shows a lot of personality. I invite everybody to observe and understand before judging.                                     

Jimmy Choo & Alberto Moretti

To beautiful but completely different styles. Jimmy Choo is more of a seasonal fashion statement with an oriental inspiration. One could only wear such a shoe on few selected occasions to make an entrance. However the Alberto Moretti has taken a very classical shape and injected tartan piping and details to make it that much dapper which can be worn anywhere, anytime.

Break the monotony

Even though the frequency is right of the usage of burgundy, I still feel that it is too much and too easy. The body of the contrast collar, the regimental tie, stitching details of the jacket, pocket square, cuff links, the tassels of the fringed loafer are all burgundy. I would have inserted green or purple to break the monotonousness of the burgundy. Also, unless he is wearing jeans or sports pants, the shoes are unacceptable under a suit.
