“A Night in Casablanca” at LONO Hollywood
I don’t go out drinking often (if at all), but when I do, it’s with people who like vintage fashion.

Warning: LONG ASS BLOG POST
It’s not everyday that a film takes place in the 1930’s, but when there is, we’ve definitely gotta talk about the fashion!

It’s taken 11 months for the LA weather to hit under 70F, so that means it’s time for actual fall/winter outfits. And what better way to do it than to bring back the Rollneck sweater.
Anyone here want to get more Ethan and Spencer in your lives? Well I’ve got two things you can check out: our Youtube video and the Style & Direction podcast.
The bi-annual weekend event has come again! In this article, I recount my Dapper Day Expo experience (like I did last time) by documenting some of my colleague’s great style and even give you a little sneak peak into the menswear presentation I did with Spencer.
Dapper Day is finally here, and while I do like to write a post each time (to help you get dressed), I thought it would be helpful to compile a list of articles that I think can help you get started with vintage or vintage inspired style!

If you don’t have a desire to wear vintage tailoring but want to achieve a vintage look, don’t worry- it’s as easy as wearing a striped shirt and patterned tie.
Instantly looks old school and displays a mastery over classic style, while still looking easy!
I know we’ve already posted an article for the week, so here’s a little bonus content. I was invited to go to the official launch of The Bloke, LA’s latest haberdashery, and it was a gas. I never get to go to events like this!

Phew. That title is a mouthful, isn’t it?
As I continue to be more intentional in my buying (instead of buying random thrifts for the sake of tailoring), I’ve decided that my money could be better used on obtaining grails, both for wear and use in a bespoke reproduction. One of the first ones was the 1930’s brown SB patch pocket suit (with gorgeous lapels). This jacket was the next one.
