Splash of Blues ft. Tip Top Tailors

Holding onto the last days of summer. I can’t get enough of Tip Top Tailors' Sportshirts as they are perfect for this weather. Super light and breathable to wear, as it is made from 100% cotton. Feeling fresh in this warm cyan printed whale tail shirt I’m wearing.  I will definitely be taking this printed button up with me on my next vacation. Check out Tip Top Tailors for more men’s looks from casual to sophisticated styles. Have a good week and thanks for stopping by! -Bobby

Pink Summer

This summer it's all about soft pinks and more neutral hues. Especially as warmer weather is around the corner there has been a lot of flamingos popping up everywhere I shop. A pocket flamingo is the cutest settle little detail to an essential summer tee. Styled with a pair of slim stretch dusty rose shorts that I'm looking forward to wearing all summer long. Also inspired by the #plantsonpink aesthetic I threw on a tropical and floral printed hat. Nothing goes better than green and pink! These Zoo York meshed black shoes are like walking on a cloud. I've been mostly wearing them at the gym because they are light and want to keep them in minty. If you are interested in any pieces seen in this blog post (including the ones on my rack) you can shop for my entire outfit over at Bluenotes. Now I can't wait to go to the beach. I better start packing soon because in two weeks I'll be going to Cancun! I just need some tacos & tequila and I'm good. Thanks for stopping by!! Stay fresh and don't forget to wear sunscreen!

COACHELLA DREAMIN' (Vote for me!)

Hello Everyone!

I have a very important message.

I was selected to enter a very special contest: Win a trip to Coachella! If you could please do me a huge favor and VOTE for my photo [HERE] that would be soo greatly appreciated! You can actually vote once a day for this entire week! (11th-18th) so with your support you may really make my dream come true! Thank you so much in advance to all my loyal and genuine readers! I've built such a modest and loyal relationship with you guys and I hope that you can lend me a helping hand, and I will see that good karma will come back your way! 

The concept for this shoot was to create a a look wearing my favourite Big Star USA item and I chose my new straight leg jeans in the Orche colour. I wore a graphic tee from Big Star which perfectly matched the colours on my vintage vest! I wanted to make a Coachella inspired photo shoot but it was next to impossible to avoid the snow in an outdoor shoot last week before the photo submission due date. So I had hiked from the country side all the way to the gorge which is I must mention is really challenging to get to, especially in the snow! This photo shoot is sooo special to me because I'm actually wearing every single one of my favourite accessories! I put a lot of time and effort into putting together the ultimate Coachella and Big Star combination all inspired in one look! I wanted to mention how hard I worked for this shoot because I know that I'd be the perfect person to reprisent Big Star at Coachella because I truly am a big fan of the brand and to be honest, since I got my first pair of jeans they have seriously grown to be my most worn jeans to this date. So for that fact I have more than just 'a photo' to win this contest, I could give you a hundred reasons why I'm deserving of this opportunity. and promise if I go to Coachella I will give you the best and most exciting looks and videos that I've posted to this date! Thank you soo much for reading this and have a wonderful week!

Much love, Bobby
