Check Out This New Swedish Style Concern. . .

One of the many attractive neckwear offerings from Tie Room.

We here at The Average Guys Guide to Classic Style are always eager to spread the word about worthy new garment and accessory outlets that catch our attention. So, if you are in the market for some good quality neckties, bow ties, or pocket squares at reasonable costs, check out Tie Room. The company began in Sweden, but it has recently opened a U.S. outlet and started offering its products to guys on this side of the Atlantic. Those who are looking to kick up their style a few notches at any rate.

Since my own background is so heavily laden with Scandinavian and Nordic languages, literature, and familial links to southern Sweden, I have a strong desire to see the people behind Tie Room do well. Be sure to have a look around their website and order something that catches your eye. I've got my own on several of Tie Room's subtly patterned wool neckties. "Good stuff!" as Cary Grant used to say.

A photograph (taken by Studio B Portraits ) which appeared in 425 Business Magazine in May 2017. T his post on the problem of business casual dress began as a quick postscript to a previous blog entry last week but quickly grew and grew as additional thoughts occurred, were developed in more detail, and revisions made. So much so, that it seemed, eventually, like a better idea to make the initial P.S. afterthought into its own entry . Are ya ready, Freddy? Then, here we go. . . ------------ U nless you actually plan to sell beach snacks and trinkets on Cozumel, become a serial barista, or greet customers at a fancy nightclub after taking out huge student loans to attend university somewhere for four or five years, plus an MBA afterward, it's really a better idea to err on the side of (somewhat) more formal work at...

Friday on Campus Style. . .

S omewhat atypically, I was on campus for several hours today helping with an interview that is part of a larger documentary project on which a colleague and I are working. Although I am behind the camera (I'm the audio guy in fact), what better reason does one need to dress presentably? Exactly. Everything worn, barring the recently purchased University of Wisconsin socks, a gift from the Grand Duchess, has been in the rotation for a while now. And, of course, there was the Panama hat, which I'll wear until we pass October 1st when the felt fedoras reappear. -- Heinz-Ulrich

Tan Suit Tuesday. . .

W hile it's now after Labor Day here in the U.S,. we still have almost three weeks left of summer according to the calendar. And since today was bright, sunny, and pleasantly warm (though far from hot), it seemed like a perfect opportunity to trot out my tan cotton suit and tan loafers/belt. Slightly disheveled, yes. And the shoes need some Renovateur to moisten 'em up But not a bad overall look if I might be so bold. -- Heinz-Ulrich
