IN THE NEWS - Jeff Lahens/DressCode Boston breaks down 6 of Kevin Garnett’s scarves for Boston Magazine. (Click-through photo)
I had the pleasure of featuring Boston best men’s shops in The Man Issue of The Improper Bostonian.
The looks were inspired by Classic British Gentlemen. The styles range from Smart Casual to Elegant Formal.
My objectives were to show by assembling affordable and high-end pieces that style is not a price tag or a label, and to create the most effortlessly stylish and inspiring looks.

Ways to personalize your look and to add seasonal colors. Now, as the weather is chilling, simply adding a bright scarf or some patterned socks to a look is the easiest way to carry along those warm-weather colors into Fall. The good news too, in this season of layering, you really cannot go overboard, even if it’s only a pair of glasses.
I stopped by The Rhode Show on WPRI12 to discuss Transtional Menswear.
Looks curated in the following order:
Smart Casual;
Transitional Business;
Military-Inspired Business Casual;
Elegant Casual.
Special thanks to Alton Lane, Uniform Boston, Sault New England, Allen Edmonds, Ball and Buck, scott james, and Reiss.
