Fall is one of the best seasons for menswear, in my opinion, because of fabrics like flannel and tweed, layering, scarves, and of course, outerwear.

Filled with plenty of popular names, such as Ring Jacket, Ascot Chang, Liverano & Liverano, and Drakes, the Armoury has been sourcing special items from all over the world as well as creating their own distinct products. From their cognac colored suede jackets to the the wide collection of Meermin and Carmina footwear, I found myself drawn to a few of their jackets. Made from a mix of cashmere and wool, it’s got all the details that I’m looking for in a sport coat; gun-club pattern, 3-2 roll lapel and unpadded shoulders.

During the last several years, I’ve gathered a collection of classic pieces to combat the years of tank tops and t-shirts that I’ve reluctantly collected. On the contrary, I’ve found that when wearing a camp collar shirt with some airy linen pants and espadrilles, it can actually look quite refined and perfect for a night dining al fresco. A great camp collar shirt can be a little flamboyant as long as the rest of your look is toned down. While it’s a personal preference, to me, the espadrille is the perfect footwear for any beach vacation.
