Bonobos: My Favorite Knits Sweaters



   The forecast on Groundhog day was six more weeks of winter. That can be either good or bad news for people. As we head into the coldest month in New York City February. I'm eyeing two sweater options from Bonobos that will keep me warm. Green sweaters are a weakness of mines. The Alpaca Blend Fisherman Crewneck is on sale for $108. The sweater is made from Tonal marled yarn in a fisherman rib stitch,high crew neck raglan sleeve. Offered in marled grey,burgundy and forest green. Turtlenecks are always kept in rotation in my wardrobe. The Donegal Cable Turtleneck is another winner. Very beautiful sweater with Donegal flecks and cable knitting, that will definitely get you compliments.Potentially someone might want to take your photo. A very thick and toasty sweater that is 80% Wool/ 20% Nylon available in navy blue and grey. The sweater is on sale as well for $118.00. Stay crispy and cozy with these awesome sweater options.

Layering with L.L. Bean Norwegian Sweater Crewneck Lattice


LL Bean Heritage Sweater Norwegian Crewneck Lattice Barbour Beaufort Preppy
My Barbour coat has a beautiful patina!
    Anyone that is a true L.L Bean fan have certain staples, which are usually a L.L. Norwegian sweater and a pair of L.L.Bean boots. It's usually the same story every time either they purchased the items five years ago or it was inherited from someone. All true L.L Bean fans own the same stuff. Reason why because these items have stood the test of time.

Freeman x Crescent Down Works Italian Vest

Freeman X Crescent Down Works Italian Vest
$260.00
       Another collaboration between Freeman and Crescent Down Works. I will keep it short because in the previous Crescent Down Works posts I have mentioned how awesome is the brand. Crescent Down Works has been in the outerwear industry for over 40 years. This collaboration features the Italian vest. The exterior shell is 60/40 cotton-nylon blend shell, which makes it water resistant and does pretty well against the wind. It's filled with 5.5 oz. of premium 700-fill European goose down that definitely will keep you warm.

    Sunday's I'm usually with clients, because it's the most productive day to see apartments. New York City has been having very unpredictable weather. One day its cold and rainy, the next day it's spring. I knew I was going to be out for a while from morning to afternoon. I wore my L.L Bean Norwegian Crew neck sweater which is a classic preppy staple. It's a favorite item among die hard L.L.Bean fans.

Gucci Canvas Web Belt Bee Buckle




                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

        Aside from Burberry I don't put a lot designer brands on the blog but I have a weakness for belts especially leather belts with equestrian hardware. I tend to keep leather belts on rotation and my canvas belts in the recent years have been getting less wear time. Lately I keep seeing on magazine advertisements Gucci Canvas Web Belt with the Bee Buckle. This belt is a perfect combination of the uniqueness of the leather equestrian belts that I usually wear with the comfort of a canvas web belt. Signature Web canvas belt with a unfinished faded leather trim and our plaque buckle with embossed bee detail.Green/red/green cotton canvas Web with brown faded leather detail. The belt is made in Italy.The belt looks great when worn with solid colors in my opinion.The belt retails for $395.

L.L Bean Signature Jackman Blucher Moc



L.L Bean Signature Jackman Blucher Moc

   A mocassin that looks great without putting a hole in your bank account is the L.L. Bean Signature Jackman Blucher Moc. I own a pair of Blucher mocs and they are very comfortable from the first day you wear them.I do recommend sizing down half a inch. The mocassins feature full grain leather and a molded sole. I'm seriously considering adding another pair to my shoe collection. They look great regardless if you are wearing corduroys, jeans or khakis.Available now in three color options.
