So we're just gonna jump right in with the outfits here
and first up is a look to let you know
that it is fine to wear white pants after Labor Day.
Super simple, navy sport coat, white pants
and a blue striped shirt, which is the first of five pieces
that I'm gonna be featuring throughout the video
from Lanieri, who is sponsoring today's video.
Lanieri is an Italian online made-to-measure company.
They have an incredible selection of fabrics.
The ordering process is very simple,
thorough and includes two video consultations.
One as you're going through the process
and then another once you get the garment
to check out the fit and make any necessary adjustments.
I've got a link down below for those of you
who would like to learn more about the brand
and check out what they offer.
Up next, we have a look for those not afraid
of a little bit of pattern.
The jacket is from Lanieri.
It's cut from a silk wool VBC fabric.
I styled it with a notch lapel,
patch pockets to keep it casual, some contrasting buttons.
And since this is meant to be a warm weather sport coat,
the jacket is completely unlined.
Definitely a bit more of a statement making piece
and always remember that the best way to deal
with a statement piece is to keep the rest
of your outfit simple.
You wanna have just one focal point.
That's why I've chosen just a plain white shirt,
navy chinos, simple white pocket square
and some chocolate suede loafers.
Now you know that brown is one of my favorite colors
and I appreciate meeting up with several of you
in New York City about a month ago
who wore brown specifically because I love it.
Love that.
So we've got a textured wool linen blend sport coat
paired with some cream colored cotton trousers
and a brown striped shirt by Lanieri.
You can see here that because I knew I wanted this
to be a more casual shirt
that I chose a button down collar.
I really like how the stripe plays
with the texture of the jacket
and that we're working pretty much here
with the whole outfit in brown tones.
I did include a white pocket square
to add in just a touch of contrast
and then anchoring this look, some more brown,
courtesy of the chocolate suede loafers
you've been seeing all video long.
Although it's definitely still hot out there,
we are getting into that seasonal transition period now
and with this outfit,
I'm really trying to play to both sides of that.
For the summer part, that's with my fabric choices.
Jacket is a wool silk and linen blend.
The shirt by Lanieri is 100% linen
and my cream colored trousers are cotton.
Leaning into the fall aspect of it are the colors.
Really rich and earthy.
The jacket, of course, we've got browns and oranges
and then I absolutely love the olive green of the shirt
with the great linen texture.
Can be a bit difficult to pair a shirt
in a color like this with a sport coat,
but the trick is if you keep things
in the same type of color story
and with colors that complement each other,
you will not have any problem at all.
I'm gonna keep things going with the interesting
and you might say mildly unorthodox
shirt and jacket combinations here
with a look that is mostly monochrome.
Some dark navy cotton trousers
paired with a dark navy Lanieri button up shirt.
One thing I wanna point out about this shirt's fabric
is that it's a cotton jersey fabric,
so it has a little bit more of a casual
and relaxed look and feel to it,
especially with the contrasting buttons,
which I think works really well with this look.
Again, perhaps not the easiest foundation
to pair with a jacket, but here,
I've decided to keep things interesting
with a puppy tooth blazer,
just to hint a pattern to give the overall looks of texture.
Simple white pocket square for some contrast
and also to tie in the buttons.
And then our chocolate suede loafers to finish things off.
One thing I wanna mention with regard to Lanieri
is that the brand is incredibly sustainable.
All their made-to-measure and made-to-order garments
are manufactured with a zero waste approach
and the fact that the brand is digital
means being even more sustainable.
If you're interested in trying out Lanieri for yourself,
got a code for you, HSS100.
That will get new customers $100 off orders of $400 or higher.
