If you had to start from scratch with no clothing, shoes or accessories, what you buy first? You'd probably focus on the items that get the most use, right? Those pieces that you find yourself wearing 2-3 times a week, or more.
That's what this video is all about. I want to go over X items that I've gotten the most wear and enjoyment out of over the past few years. The cool thing is, once you know what these essential pieces are, you can feel good about investing in high-quality versions of each one.
And this is a great strategy to make sure you're spending money intentionally and not just wasting it on stuff you don't need. This will bring your cost per use down, and you'll look and feel better every time you wear them.

This is probably one of the first basic casual wardrobe builder videos I've seen this year that doesn't include a blazer or sport coat, and that's very refreshing. The early 2010s was replete with fashion bloggers pushing the blazer as THE versatile coat for both formal and casual dress, and I'm glad to see that the fervor is dying down and more practical coats like bombers and field jackets are coming back.

You hit a home run with that BR topcoat. At 5’5 it’s hard to find one that hits mid thigh outside of Peter Manning but I’m not fond of the high stance on their version. Found a decent camel topcoat at BR Factory on sale. Shortened the sleeves and length and looks good.

i'm no fan of faux anything (it just means a polyester imitation), but would second moleskin. Very comfortable, durable, looks good, and much less pricey than (decent) suede or leather. The only problem is it's fairly hard, very few brands have it.

Nice video , Would like to ask you Which advice can you give to style a T shirt with some printings or logos , lets say like addidas , nike , GAP and so forth . Lets say One has a brown t shirt with some logo I use to match it with a beige denim jacket and brown chinos and beige penny or tassel loafers , well this outfit could also work with blue colors but what I try is to keep all colors ( denim jacket , pant and t shirt ) in the same pattern blue , beige, grey Would like to hear some advice

@mrkevinhaughey 3 жыл бұрын

So you’re into monochromatic looks it seems? As long as all the colors within the outfit complement each other and don’t clash, you should be fine. That being said, not every outfit has to be all within the same color family. If you’re set on sticking only with monochromatic outfits, make sure there is some differences in textures. This will give the fits more dimension as too much of the same color and texture can end up looking flat. Also, if you’re into wearing loafers, you should probably invest in some more low key t shirts, as athletic wear (adidas, Nike) isn’t always going to mesh well with that type of style. The most important thing is to be yourself and carry yourself with confidence though. If you do those two things, you can basically pull off whatever you want.

Great video, but I do have a nit to pick: Polarized sunglasses aren't about extra protection, but comfort. Even the cheapest junk pair of shades will protect against UV under normal circumstances - in fact you could make your own with clear cellophane and they would still work just fine. For the wool coat, it should have at least 80% wool. And once you get past $200 or so, it should be 100% wool.
