News Years Resolutions
Firstly, we’d like to wish you all a very (Delayed) Happy New Year. The last year has brought about a real change with all the financial hardship but it has also separated the committed; the winners, the champions, the leaders or whatever you prefer to call them.
So as we enter a new decade, let’s really take it seriously. We’ve put together a list of five ways in which you can consistently upgrade your style this year. That will make a lasting change.
1. Find a local tailor
Finding your correct fit is one of the most important aspects when improving your style. Getting a tailor will allow you to wear all those items that have a slight ill-fit and help take them to that perfect, bespoke look.
Tailors are especially useful when it comes to mending or altering vintage garments. Check out your local Yellow Pages or just use the most popular search engine on earth to help you discover your nearest tailor. Read More

Our Legacy Grey Tweedn Waistcoat
Waistcoats are tricky things. There are three main problems with finding a good waistcoat.
1. Like Where’s Wally, they’re pretty difficult to find. Lazy shopping results in granddad style purchases from Marks and Spencers. As good a choice as choosing Soulja Boy on your iPhone playlist.
2. When you do find a place that stocks them, they’re usually found in your basic colours; grey and black, leading onto the second problem. Attempting to look chic yet avoiding that WAITER look.
3. If you have managed to find a decent, non-garcon looking waistcoat, it’s more than likely going to be found in a vintage store. The only problem here is that who ever seemed to be manufacturing the waistcoats in vintage times seemed to have this guy as their model client.
You’d think it would be impossible to find a good-fitting, distinctive-looking, smart waistcoat right? WRONG. This weeks ‘P.O.T.W’. shows that a quick browse online can reveal some absolute gems.
This smart piece from Swedish brand Our Legacy is simply irresistible. Its handsome tweed fabric makes it the perfect winter layering piece. The patch pocket lends itself well for all those pocket square connoisseurs and the icing on the cake is the tasteful shawl collar.
Head over to Glass Boutique now to place your order!
As Always,

Junk De Luxe – Shiny Cotton Waistcoat
This week’s ‘Product of the Week’ comes from asos.com, and for those of you that haven’t heard of this site, I suggest you give up now. Give up on life.
Just messing!
This acclaimed online fashion store stands for ‘As Seen on Screen’ and the site sells garments and sophisticated replicas that have been seen on TV and Film. I’m not sure where they found this waistcoat, but it really has that exclusive, celebrity feel to it.
Here we have a grey, shiny cotton waistcoat by Junk De Luxe; its grey colour falls into the neutral palette, which is great news for the lazy or busy man! It can go with a lot of colours and so less thought can be put into the outfit. As shown above, it works well with white T-shirts underneath and both V-neck and crew necks will do the job.
Unlike average waistcoats, this dime boasts tuxedo lapels and extra pocket detailing, which are responsible for its casual yet dressy feel. Throw a shirt under the waistcoat and you could work it with jeans or even shorts. Pick it up here.
As Always,
Stay Stylish
