If you are foregoing a tie during these business casual days, it doesn’t mean that you can’t show a little personality in your clothing. Don’t skimp on accessories. Scarves, pocket squares, gloves, briefcases, good luggage, a sleek wallet, simple watch, perfectly suited glasses, the latest tech, a good pen, and an exotic belt can all lend a very discreet level of sophistication and elegance to any business man’s wardrobe.
Age of Reason has some very witty squares. Click through.
Smythson’s Top Secret notebook is far from ordinary, yet still tasteful.
Dunhill’s Limited Edition Shagreen Fountain Pen.
I’m a sucker for Apple products and the new finishes on the iPhone5S are very elegant.
With it’s eight-day power reserve, this IWC Portofino watch needn’t be hand-wound everyday.
Just a few suggestions that rely more on the style of things rather than the brand. I certainly can’t afford an IWC watch, for example, but I admire their reserve — simple, very elegant. Feel free to add any accessoriesyou find that are elegant, sleek and perfect for the 21st Century Man.
(N.B. It occurs to me that I tend to match my accessories. All black, all tan, etc. . And I probably do that based on my shoes/outerwear. I find that one “colour-story” is sort of like the dark suit, white shirt rule. Never fail.)
