Mens Style

When it comes to styling, I have spent a lot of time talking about my brides and my female clientele but I haven’t said as much about my male clients. I’ve touched on grooming for grooms and the suit versus tuxedo debate but not day-to-day styling. When it comes to men and their clothing, there is no need for an extensive wardrobe but instead a refined and versatile one. So, where do we start?

Inspiration

It was another busy Wedding Season but I am back and I am setting an intention to write and post to my blog a little more often during Fall and Winter. When planning a wedding, it is helpful to have some visuals of what they like to guide the process. It is equally as valuable to me to know what the couple doesn’t like, so if you haven’t found a style that you love but you have seen things you don’t like, or can’t stand, bring that information to me.
