There comes a time...

There always comes a time in every man's life when you are going to have to dress up from some special occasion. I have found some pictures to help you spruce up your wardrobe and add some individual items to make it your own.

First off is the tried and try Johnny Depp. He takes a classic pinstripe vest, but with the open white shirt and layered necklaces, he definitely gives it his own unique spin.

Next up is a little bit more classic approach to the typical suit. A simple black suit with a white shirt, you can never go wrong! Add a subtle funky print tie and pocket square and your good to go. It's all about fitment here, most men are afraid to buy suits that actually fit them. A good tailor can make a $50 suite look like a million bucks.

Don't forget the shoes! Don't be afraid to add a unique spin to your shoes or stay tailored with the classic oxfords from YSL.

Stackables!



I just came across these awesome skull bracelets on Etsy from Em Kal. Available in in all sorts of semi precious stones, I think these will make a great addition to any wardrobe. Stack two or three of these bad boys up and your ready to rock the day. Check them out here: Skull Bracelets

To rust or not to rust?



Check out this insanely bad Honda CB750 Cafe Racer. I love the rustic brown and black out rims! Would you be willing to rust out your body work?

If the shoe fits



Lets talk shoes! Here is a pair of vintage gray suede oxford shoes on Etsy. What do you think of wearing vintage shoes? I just think you can find some amazing styles that you don't see any more, and for $38.00 you can't beat the style value it gives you.
Here is a picture of Mitchell Binder, the designer of King Baby Studio. I have to admit I am really digging his style. Nothing like a solid silver skull on top of a cane to make your day. The layered bracelets I would sport all day every day. What do you think?
So I am about to share my all time favorite mens brand. King Baby Studio! You will probably start to see a lot of their merchandise on here as time goes on. I thought this was a great picture to start with so you can get the feel for the brand. Trust me you won't be disappointed in anything that these guys do! Check them out here:

 Are you feeling lucky today, punk? The .44 magnum is the most powerful handgun in the world, capable of blowing your head clean off – and now it’s the manliest ring in the world. This ring makes a great gift for guns enthusiasts, and Dirty Harry impressionists.
