The Anthology Knit Tee
A knit tee that looks like it came straight from the 1940’s but is totally wearable today. And all the proceeds even go to charity! What’s better than that?
High Contrast Summer Outfits
It’s long, deal with it.
It’s been a while since we’ve done a post on actual style advice; a lot of the articles have been pretty educational as of late.

Tailored Casual with the Tucked-in Short Sleeve Shirt

For this article, I decided to delve more into into an outfit that is more “casually tailored”, a term frequented by style bloggers like Dan Trepanier. My version looks toward the cool summer/vacation styles of the 1930s-1950s, where tucked in shortsleeves were all the rage. It’s perfect for summer, since you’re probably looking to leave your long-sleeve shirts at home.
