Mocha Salt is an Australian brand that was born out of passion and to bridge the gap between versatile swimwear and smart casuals. Their tailored shorts are cut from premium quick-dry material, crafted with attention to detail and manufactured in Sydney, one pair at a time. Perusing the lookbook, it is easy to forget that these on trend […]

Because, fashun in rain. When it comes to long jackets and coats, we are accustomed to the greys, navys and blacks on guys. There are the occasional checks, greens and reds but rarely the bright colours that guys would avoid for fear of being taken less seriously or attracting too much attention. A vibrant jacket […]

Because, into the blue. Monotone is the style of wearing a singular colour or similar shades in an ensemble (and not the trend of pairing black, white or grey which is monochrome, something that some still get confused with). The idea sounds simple effortless but many are challenged by the prospect of finding pieces that […]

Because, trying hard to be casual. Casual chic is defined as dressing down in a stylish manner but for something that sounds casual and effortless, it is not merely about throwing on a pair of jeans and T-shirt. Achieving a casual chic look is as much about how you wear the clothes as it is […]

Because, tradie chic. Let’s be honest and admit that tradesmen’s workwear can sometimes be our go-to option in terms of sartorial choices. It is not necessarily fashionable or dapper per se but there is a certain edge to the shorts, boots, overall casualness and ruggedness that gives it its own style.

Because, gold pants. (And too close to the edge). Gold trousers are celebratory clothing pieces that you only see on the runway or at festivals but it does not mean you can wear them only when it is time to get ostentatious or exotic. That said there is also a very thin line to looking […]

Because, the birds. With easier accessibility to digital printing, more designers and brands are crafting statement looks by using distinct bold prints. A vibrant printed shirt can make you stand out from the crowd for the right reasons but many still prefer the comfort of a check or stripe casual shirt as the thought of teaming a […]

Because, different shades of red. Monotone is a bold style statement that most people do not think they can pull off. Firstly it is not easy to own items from head to toe in the same colour (and we are not talking about black, because seriously who has time for that). Secondly you need the […]

Because, dressed for the gym but not to the gym. Sport luxe has been on the lips of many journalists, bloggers and fashionistas in the last few seasons and it is the aesthetic of designers such as Kris Van Assche and Neil Barrett. The amalgam is apparent with increasing number of collaborations between sports brands […]

Because, navy pontoon walking. Many articles have been written about the understatement of navy and while more men are choosing this shade over black, there is still a lacking number adorning this easy-to-wear colour. Navy is a neutral colour that exudes more richness than black and comes in light or dark versions. It is easy […]

Because, he on the phone to no one. (More phone posing here). Statement shoes can easily lift an uninspiring outfit as long as they are the only statement piece. Unless it is a specific theme that you are going for, wearing excessive statement pieces in a single look will minimise the potential for individual pieces to […]

Because, green shiny metal. Metallic is without a doubt still a high fashion trend that might take a few seasons to cross over into mainstream menswear or perhaps even never. When Prada and Burberry sent models down the runway for their AW2011 and SS2013 respectively, the fashion world celebrated the metallic intensity but many questioned […]

Because, in front of rocks for no reason except that it’s fashion. Even though men have become more stylish with their sartorial choices, accessorising (specifically hat-wearing) is still an area that seems to lack in numbers. Hats, like bags, have to be a certain style before men would commit to them. Just like backpacks, there […]
