New For Spring - Sage De Cret

SAGE DE CRÊT was launched by the Director Kimitoshi Chida in 2001. The launching of the brand resulted from the desire to create a tasteful creation made in Japan, which includes meticulously selected fabrics and templates and accessories. The brand had its international debut in 2013 SS, and it is being carried at the flagship store of its sister brand, pas de calais. The brand name is a coinage using the two words “sage” and “decrêt” which means “sensible” and “order” respectively in French.

The brand proposes a wardrobe in which the roles of its clothing are well thought-out, from stitching to zipper, lining and form, dying, material, and sewing, details. In addition, the collection states through its clothes that brand’s basic concepts work, military, and traditional are the base of men’s wear. It expresses the refined techniques and the design that pays respect to the history and tradition of fashion but unconstrained by the conventional. It is a wardrobe that lets men have their own style and wear with their own style.

New Looks for Fall

The seasons are changing, and slowly the weather will start to cool down. It's time to put away those summer clothes and pull out the fall and winter gear. New in store are our fall and winter collections from many different brands that you love.

New shirts from Bugatchi are in! 

Light weight, super soft cotton, long sleeve shirt from Agave for those colder nights. Layer up in style -- handcrafted and distressed coloring in dark teal with contrast stitching.

This sweater from Agave has the look of a light wool, but is actually 100% cotton. The dark moss-green color makes it easy to pair with a variety of gear and the ribbing in a sea blue adds a twist of color.

Alberto denim makes any outfit more stylish. These two new washes, in chocolate and inky blue, are meant to be worn with the cuffs rolled up.  

Wine Country Weddings

It's that time of year again, its wedding season! Whether it is a casual or dressy wedding, we are sure to help you get fitted with the right look. Here are two style ideas on how to dress for a wine country wedding -- 

Light colors, silks, and linens give this look an easy and relaxed feel.  This light weight, cream colored blazer from Ibiza has good structure but soft enough to pair with the soft texture of linen. The pants are a silk-cotton blend from Scott Barber that look luxurious, but are still easy to wear. This white linen shirt has great flow and the tones of browns and tans pull the look together. Paired this outfit with a light brown leather boot from Trippen.

For a more formal wedding, this look is perfect. A black and white checkered Paul Betenly blazer, which is a silk cotton blend, and burgundy shirt from Georg Roth make any outfit look dressy. Worn with a pair of Alberto pima cotton black pants, the look is sleek and classic. These Trippen shoes are awesome! A throw back to wing tips the leather is actually painted. It's a complete formal look for your wine country wedding!

GREAT GIFT IDEAS FOR FATHER'S DAY

The time of year has come again when we celebrate and honor our fathers, fatherhood, and all things paternal... It's Father's Day! Looking for the perfect gift for Dad? Here are some ideas to get you started.

The look - CASUAL SPORT
Why settle for the old shorts and t-shirt combination?  Instead, pair shorts with a button down shirt and soft, colorful zip sweatshirt.  Or, this linen vest and lightweight blazer.  Who says shorts have to be boring?

The look - DRESSY CASUAL
Pair a linen blazer with jeans or even linen pants, and button down shirts in bright colors.  Dad will look elegant, but very much at ease.

The look - CLASSIC  
Celebrate Dad with an evening out. We've paired this gorgeous, lightweight summer blazer with a classic flat front slack for a timeless look.   

Finish the look with a pair of Maui Jims! Polarized and color tinted technology means Dad will love wearing them around town and even more on the golf course!

Lots of small items that he'll love... wallets, ties, cufflinks, bow ties, pocket squares, socks and stays!

Happy Father's Day, Dad! 

Pocket squares rule

Gone are the days of blowing your nose or patting an eye with the pocket square. Pocket squares are a luxurious and luscious little detail that, when done right, can take a man from looking good to GQ status. Getting it right, however, isn't as easy as it might seem.  

Recently, GQ put out a great video on the basic how-to's of successfully wearing a pocket square to elevate your look. Here's the basic rules to picking the right pocket square and joining the illustrious roster of sports heroes, rock stars, celebrities, and the generally gorgeous that grace the pages of GQ --

Rule #1 -- Never match your pocket square with your tie or shirt.  Instead, pick out a color that is similar or complementary.

Rule #2 -- Pattern on pattern is not necessarily a no-no.  When dealing with pattern (checks, plaid, polka-dots, etc.) be sure that your pocket square is a different scale and different color value for a successful look.

Rule #3 -- Take an element of casual and give it pizzaz.  The simple and whimsical can completely transform a look when paired with the right jacket, shirt, or tie.  Even something as unsuspecting as a bandana can be elevated when used as a pocket square.
