The (daring) nuggets of the editorial team #68 – Michel

We only have one life, it seems.

So this week, I have selected three items of clothing for you to sink your teeth into.

Are you looking for a strong piece to spice up your wardrobe, stand out from the crowd, or simply have fun? All you have to do is scroll.

Striped shirt - Wax London

two-tone striped shirt

This one is for the beach.

It's also here to shake up summer wardrobes.

To do this, a cocktail of mustard and navy stripes, wide and thin, spaced and tight. A perilous mixture but very well done here.

But to see true success, you have to look closer.

blue yellow striped shirt material

I'll give you two minutes to appreciate all the details of this texture.

That’s it, shall we start again?

I don't know about you, but for me, it reminds me of a towel that would greet me on the sand after a few salty waves. Are you there?

When I told you it was made for the beach.

To wear these stripes, of course, you have to have a taste for adventure. But after all, stylistic progression is one, right?

And if you don't know what to wear it with, start by keeping it simple with white pants. On your feet, light brown moccasins for example, to take it step by step.

Concerning the quality/price checklist, it is in 100% cotton, the buttons are in corozo and it is currently discounted at €70. In my opinion, it is acceptable and sufficiently accessible to attempt the epic without risking too much regret.

I could even have talked about honest prices, if despite the fine words of this London brand, we could find any information on the manufacturing locations.

Colorful workwear jacket - Kestin Hare

orange workwear jacket

This one is for picking mushrooms in the forest. Because if you get lost, you will quickly be spotted.

You get it: if this jacket appears here, it's for its color.

In addition to knowing how to bring an outfit to life, it is unexpected on a workwear piece . And the unexpected is what we want here. is not it ?

Kestin Hare, a Scottish brand that we salute for its creativity, has positioned its cursor very well: the shade is strong enough to captivate but soft enough to combine with others without swearing.

Beige chinos, t-shirt and white sneakers. It's easy and if you're bored, a plaid shirt (well chosen) is a good idea.

The other quality of this jacket is its material.

orange velvet

On a workwear piece, we like to see relief. With this velvet, we are served.

The choice of thin sides allows you to gain in subtlety and for a piece that catches the eye like this, it is not a refusal.

This bias also avoids giving it a “winter” label. It therefore has its place in mid-season and even in summer, as long as the heatwave alert is not given.

Otherwise, it is made in Portugal.

Trousers cut with originality - Olive Clothing

beige wide pants

This one is made for climbing stairs in pairs, practicing splits... In short, it advocates for the freedom of movement of our legs.

No surprising colors or eccentric stripes. Here, we play with volumes.

But not just any old way, observe: the pants are short and worn with a t-shirt tucked in to highlight the waist.

camel beige loose pants

With these precautions, the silhouette is not compacted but structured. The bet is won.

At the front, its two claws are long and deep, which goes well with its assumed rudeness.

camel pants clips

It costs €89, rather reasonable. At this price, you shouldn't expect a feast of fine finishes. But it's a good price to experiment with.
