Happy Birthday Boss!
I'm not writing an epistle about him but it's his birthday and so I thought to use this opportunity to tell him he's so much an inspiration to me and his zest and style just makes me wanna keep doing fashion no matter how hard it seems to get to the top.... There's hope and I'll be there!
Happy birthday Boss... May this year be amazing for you, your family and business. God bless you real good... Cheers

The Suit Bible Every Gent Must Read
This is for my stylish male folks and those who want to be stylish too... Lol
Read carefully....
Men’s fashion, like that of the women, keeps evolving each day. Unlike in the past when the fit and size didn’t matter, men are now particular about what they wear, how they combine the ensemble, how to match those colours and finally, adding the finishing touches with accessories.
Centering on the men’s suit, these set of apparels are made from the same cloth, usually consisting of at least a jacket and trouser.
Suits are often worn, with a collared shirt, necktie and the lapel pin. Suits also come with different numbers of pieces: a two-piece suit has a jacket and the trousers; a three piece adds a waistcoat; further pieces might include a flat cap made from the same cloth.
Suits are sold in roughly four ways:
We have put together some suit commandment that every gent should follow. Check them out below:
When buying a ready-to-wear suit, the first thing to check is how the shoulders fit. Shoulder pads should end at the shoulders. The shoulders are the hardest to tailor, so make sure they don’t stick out or stick up.
If you want to wear a pocket square make sure it doesn’t appear as too immense. A pocket square only adds an extra level of polish, but make sure it doesn’t match your tie in either pattern or fabric choice.
Always unbutton your suit before sitting down, or you just might risk ruining it.
The top button of a two-button (or the middle button of a three-button) should fall at or above the navel.
Sleeve cuffs should be exposed about half an inch.
If you’re wearing a vest also known as a waistcoat or innerjacket, always keep the bottom button unbuttoned.
It’s very okay to accessorise with a lapel pin, but ensure it matches with at least a piece of your outfit. And always fit the lapel pin in the buttonhole of your left lapel collar.
The vest is best worn with single-breasted suits so it’s actually visible. It also adds a formal touch to your suit.
Often go for a charcoal or grey suit over black, dark grey is more versatile and goes with more colors.
For a more casual, trendy look, opt for a single-button peak-lapel jacket. If you’re going for more formal business attire, opt for a double-button, notched lapel jacket.
Make sure that your socks are long enough that there’s no exposed leg when sitting down.
Your tie should always be darker than your dress shirt. It should also reach the waistband of your trousers, or be slightly shorter.
The suit jacket should be just long enough to cover your pants zipper and butt.
For a more fashion-forward look, the pant hem should hit right at the top of your shoe. For a more conservative look, the pants should cover the top of the shoe and parts of the laces.

Suits are sold in roughly four ways:
- Bespoke, in which the garment is custom-made by a tailor from a pattern created entirely from the customer’s measurements, giving the best fit and free choice of fabric;
- made to measure, in which a pre-made pattern is modified to fit the customer, and a limited selection of options and fabrics is available;
- ready-to-wear or off-the-peg, which is sold ready to be tailored or finally as is;
- suit separates where jacket and trousers are sold separately, allowing a customer to choose the size that is best for them and limit the amount of alterations needed
