Last week’s Watches and Wonders event in Geneva introduced a lot of new watch releases. I wanted to share my thoughts on the ones that stood out to me, and on new releases in general.

Everyone sees value for money differently, but many go cheap on everyday essentials like socks. I talk about the balance between quality and price, why better fabrics matter, and my experience with Pedemeia socks.

When we’re talking about casual style, the answer is much more complex than a simple yes or no. It depends on the number of layers, colors and fabrics you’re wearing.

This article is a continuation of my series about colors and these 5 simple rules should serve as a baseline for using colors in casual outfits.

Many people stick to neutral clothes because they’re unsure which colors work together and are afraid of making mistakes, so they’d rather play it safe.

When it comes to mechanical watches, there is a very wide price range to consider, from as low as 200€ to five or six-digit prices. This is part three of the series.

Why a 1” width has such great appeal is because it doesn’t fill the entire belt loop. This makes it look effortless and elegant. Visually, a narrower belt also doesn’t cut the whole outfit in half. The main reason why regular belt widths (1.5” to 4 cm) are not a good choice, in my opinion, is that they stand out too much and overpower the entire midsection.

What and how much we pack depends on the occasion and season. There are situations where you have to pack more for a two-day trip than you sometimes do for a week.

Military use in the late 19th century brought wristwatches to men, as soldiers found pocket watches impractical during battles. By the early 20th century, wristwatches were being specifically designed for practicality.

No matter what style of dressing you prefer, socks make a difference. Quality socks always stand out and show that you put in the effort and pay attention to details – they send a message that you care.

This article is about independent brands that produce quality suitcases locally in their own factories or workshops, or have production in countries…

The brand was founded in 2012 by Jamie and his partner, Lucy. They craft their acetate frames themselves and release them in small batches about six times a year. They offer both optical glasses and sunglasses, with prescription lenses available for both.
