IndulGENT Bondi book launch

1.8.15

Two years in the making, IndulGENT was launched at my favourite bar in Bondi with my favourite people on a perfect, sunny Winters day. Thanks to all that made the day so great, my gratitude to you my friends. 

Inside you will find wardrobe essentials to get you started, styling tips and tricks as well as what to wear to important events like date night, business interviews and your wedding day.

Special thanks to the gentlemen I interviewed for IndulGENT, the locations we were able to shoot in as well as the models and friends that helped along the way.

I hope you enjoy IndulGENT as much as did.

Panamania

Bespoke suit maker Rochefort recently held a wee scotch tasting and I decided to roll out a cream cotton cropped single breasted suit. This style is influenced by Panama and the balmy seaside vibes of 'The Rum Diaries'. Vans white canvas sneakers keep the ensemble relaxed and the Panama hat coordinates with the button treatments and finishes off the overall Panamanian style. I love bespoke, the individuality, fit and comfort are well worth the investment.

Tip: having a cropped finish to this suit gives you multiple footwear options. To dress this look up a little, just add brown suede loafers and an open neck button up woven shirt.

Golden State

Gold is a fantastic accent to add to navy or charcoal separates, like these from Rhodes & Beckett. I also love bright red back with the neutral tones, so the chairs are my back up singers for the day. Loake shoes finish off the ensemble and grooming is by Detail for Men.

Tip: taper the hems from the knee down about an inch to finish with a cleaner line than this look. These hems were not adjusted because the kind folks at Rhodes & Beckett allowed me to loan them.

Check the check on check

Don't be afraid to mix up your checks particularly in a monochromatic palette. Rhodes & Beckett ensemble with Country Road convict stripe socks and dark cherry high shine bespoke shoes by G&L Handmade.

Tip: be sure to mix the size of the checks so they are complementary as opposed to competing.

Boho Burgundy

I feel my Byronian roots are on show here, such a blend of cosmopolitan and coastal alternative. The lovely folk at Harrolds have provided this Burgundy and off white Alexander McQueen ensemble and Aquila have provided the camo soled ride. Don this look for your next birthday or the next funky venue or event you attend.

Tip: when there is so much going on with prints it ideal to connect with one of the base colours.
