Individualism - Making men more stylish

Rag & Bone Hacking Stand Collar Jacket

I don’t usually opt for jackets without traditional collars, reason being that a good collar adds structure and helps frame my lamp post-like neck and prevents me looking like a damn swan!

But every now and then, an item comes along and makes me forget about all those insecurities. This week’s P.O.T.W. is such an item…

This tailored grey checked jacket from Rag & Bone really hits the spot and its subtle check is a little more my style. Possessing beautiful brown buttons, a breast pocket just waiting to be filled with a vibrant pocket square and vents with buttons that…pop!

It’s the perfect item to kick off your Autumn 2010 wardrobe.

Gravity Pope are the stockists this week.

Stay Stylish,

Aaron

The Village Green – Carter Mac

British weather is reliable. Reliable in the fact that you never know what to expect.

That’s why during the months when it’s supposed to be warm, it’s wise to take a jacket with you, something that’s lightweight, that will protect you from the elements but won’t make you sweat out the Thames.

Last week was the beginning of our London Series, using iconic landmarks around the capital as the backdrop for our Product of the Week shoots.

Set against the majestic Tower Bridge, we introduce to you The Carter Mac from London-based brand The Village Green. It’s the perfect summer garment – a beautifully-constructed and stylish  jacket. What more could a Londoner want? (bar sun)

Orri Henrisson Harrington Jacket

This week’s ‘Product of the Week’ is perfect for this time of year. The time between Spring and Summer seems to linger on for ever; it’s as if Mr Sunshine is playing knock down ginger, unwittingly forcing us to come out unprepared for the bitter wind that takes his place the moment you get too far to head back home.

Our answer to this problem is a lightweight Harrington or windbreaker jacket, because as the name suggests, it will keep you warm and fight the winds while not making you sweat bucket loads the moment the bastard sun decides to show its face.

Here at Individualism we always need a slight twist on our week P.O.T.W’s. Take this stylish windbreaker from Orri Henrisson. Dropping in a clean off-white, it’s the perfect solution for your early spring dilemmas. The breast panel is what really caught our four eyes.

It’s not too obvious but again, a nice bit of detailing that lets people know you didn’t just run straight to Gap and pick up the first jacket you saw -it’s something that only comes with a designer garment. Check out the pics to see how we styled this bad boy.
