Today’s look is a glimpse into Spring of 2012. It’s been a warm winter but I’m ready for some real sun. This is what I’d wear on a lunch date or maybe a happy hour or maybe on vacation in Miami. I saw these slippers up close a few weeks ago at Capsule. I have a pair in black velvet and they look great on me. (FYI: they run small so size up.) The staff at Del Toro is young but they’re focused and friendly. I’ll always show support for them and their products. I’d cop these in a heartbeat if I didn’t have other items on my list ahead of them. Since the shoes are the statement piece it makes sense to keep the rest of the outfit clean and simple with a few complimentary accessories. You can never go wrong with a crispy white button down. The secret wash shirts from J. Crew are super comfortable so I’ll start there. Light denim doesn’t get much play nowadays with everyone still sporting dark raw denim. If you’re gonna go light, get a broken in washed look. You don’t want to have the “dad jeans” look going. The key pieces are set now time to throw in a few accessories. I’m playing off the camo colors with the military watch and green watch band along with the classic green aviator frames. Keeping my man jewelry nice and understated I’ll go with a singular tiger’s eye beaded bracelet. No precious metals or rocks this time around. Bonus: If it gets a bit chilly throw on a black v-neck to beat the breeze.
