A Look Ahead At Spring 2010

There is a hint of warmth poking through the air here in New York and local retailers and magazines are starting their Springcentric lines as well.

I started my Spring arsenal with three simple pieces of really nice cloth from Lands’ End.

At this point, I am sure all of you are saying: “This guy must get paid by Indochino, Imparali, and Lands’ End to talk about their clothes” which, as much as I wish it were true, is simply not. I usually just find one or two places I love to shop at and stick with them for a while. I’m a long term relationship kind of guy.

The pocket square is a tricky piece and has to be taken farther than the boring flat white version especially when wearing a solid, light spring time suit.

One of my readers suggested the Lands’ End canvas label to me and I initially freaked out at the price of only $9,50 a piece. Since I bought them online, I thought the clothe would be cheap and thin but man, was I wrong. Lands’ End continues to prove that they are commited to making quality pieces for the financially challenged. So much so that in this month’s GQ magazine in between a bunch of $40-$80 pocket squares lies one magical $9.50 square.

Here are the three I chose for spring/summer:
