I have noticed that polo shirts are back in fashion and the preppy/casual look is trending this season! Personally i think polo shirts are always in fashion as it’s a simple clothing item that can be combined with loads of different styles! I bought the polo shirt pictured below and team it up with a nice pair of chinos and some boat shoes which for me is an ideal casual look for this summer!

Fit for a King

It is the classic clothing apparel, the chinos and polo look that has often been labelled dull and old. Wearing classic blue shirts with mens chino trousers is good enough for a future King, then it makes it onto the Is this Fashion list of must-have styles.

Princes William and Prince Harry both make this style work, it is effortless yet alluring, as Kate Middleton would agree! The preppy designers are happy to witness this fashion reinvigorated by the two Princes.

The length of trouser is all important, with many citing the ankle length chino being the ideal style for men. Designer Michael Bastian and his Gant Rugger style emulates this enduring casual trouser fashion.

Kate Middleton is fast becoming a style icon, with her appropriately chosen outfits seamlessly matching every occasion.The girl has set the style columns on fire and has quickly left behind the university lifestyle dresses and is shaping up to the task of being the poster girl for traditional and contemporary dressing.

For her iconic engagement pictures her choice of dress show her beautifully adorned in a classic Reiss women’s dress.

Elle | Michael Bastian for GANT! Too Cool For School

Michael Bastian had delivered once again and he has put an amazing collection together for Gant! I absolutely love the vintage/ preppy/ nautical elements that clearly stand out in this collection and it also reminds of some of the Sartorialist photography in Italy and France. Michael Bastian has been inspired by the European summer flair of 2010 and has put together a really cool clothing line! Too Cool for School!!!!!!!

Knit Tops and Stuff

Katie Waissell has grabbed many headlines during her days as a singing contestant on TV’s reality show, so it as nice to see her grabbing headlines for her fashion sense, snapped wearing a Bench hooded cardigan!

She has appeared in a whole host of outfits, some more garish than fashionable, but this post rehearsal dress down is by far my personal favourite. Her performance on stage of Gwen Stefani’s No Doubt classic Don’t Speak was equally mindblowing.

Thanks to Daily Mirror for the photo.

Day Birger

Have you checked out the new Day Birger online store? If you haven’t i strongly recommend you do that now!!I recently discovered this brand and i absolutely love their new range. The new range had a vintage feel to it, the lace dresses and their silk/velvet range are amazing and are selling out fast! It the kind of brand that would probably dress the likes of Alexa Chung and Zoey Deschannel as both of them go for that formal but at the same time vintage look.

Is he really going to brush up his bad boy image, wearing smarter clothing – obviously you are treated with respect when wearing new smart clothes.

Is denim still in fashion ? Though you won’t always be classed as cool because you wear denims, it remains an enduring classic appearance associated with jeans wearers.

The latest jeans style is always something to behold. It is such a vintage clothing item, that many should expect to see more and more denims on the catwalks. Trousers are symbolic of menswear but nowadays we have boyfriend jeans for girls. It is as though fashion conventions have turned on their head!

The cut of a well worn pair of jeans is something men have to pay close attention to. If they want to impress on a first date, then choosing boot cut, will create the impression that he is in control, and a master of his own fashion identity.

Is the older celebrities wearing jeans uncool? I know I would wear them when I am older. Denim jeans are comfortable, and have survived decades of wear. Coupled with a denim shirt, and you have the double denim classic look.

Denim is fashionable around the world, in colder climates such as Scandinavia, jeans are worn religiously and now appear to have sparked a generation of wearers. Fashion labels such as Day birger, with its Day Denim range. Here is a whole range of Day Birger Shirts that are classic and comfortable.
