Men of Architectural Style

Posted on October 31, 2010 by Amber S.

When one goes to Europe, one takes an instant notice of the architectural grandeur, the intricate designs and details, and the awe-inspiring buildings that are hundreds of years old. In America, our architecture is lacking those ancient intricities and the eye for detail. Our buildings seem to be made for one purpose only: functionality.

European Architecture

One can look the same way at cufflinks. Yes, they are used to enclose the gaps on shirt sleeves and be used in place of a button, but they also represent something aesthetically supreme (like European Architecture). They are not simply worn for functionality, but are used to represent individualism, eccentricities, and character. It always comes down to the details. These Enamel Tracery Cufflinks are reminiscent of the same architectural details we love:

Designed by LOMA, they evoke the detail oriented style that completely brings together an outfit.

Calvin Klein Fall 2010

Walking down the street, people notice the tiny accessories that make up an outfit. Cufflinks are that eye-catching and architectural “wow factor” to an outfit. Designer Italo Zucchelli’s new designs for Calvin Klein exhibited exactly that: crisp, sharp, and detail oriented clothes. Calvin Klein’s new fall 2010 line is representative of the masculine man looking sharply forward in a lusterless world; And similarly, these Orange Enamel Tracery Cufflinks are breaking the lackluster mold:

And to add even more color and texture to your palate, these Black and Red Quilted Cufflinks are yet another great choice for that fashion forward attitude and architectural vibe:

Runway Shows: Stuff We love

Posted on October 8, 2010 by Amber S.

A classic suit should simultaneously borrow the sophistication of the late Victorian period, the glamour of the Parisian 30’s, and the meticulous style of the 60’s.

But there’s always room for a new twist on a classic look.

The Hermes collection for fall 2010 hinted at an urban countryside look, with relaxed fit suits. Here’s a more urban version below, but click on the Hermes link to view the entire collection.

For 2010 it’s all about the texture. Who says you have to weigh yourself down under heavy clothes? For fall 2010, lightweight, textured suits made of breath-able cotton, flannel, and linen are sprouting up everywhere. We especially like the countryside look with an urban flair that is apparent in the tailored silhouettes, which make use of light browns, beige, and soft black.

Granite Cabochon Cufflinks

To make the MOST of this “country boy meets big city” style, pair these textured suits with a natural accessory, like these Granite Cabochon Cufflinks designed by Ike Behar. These designer cufflinks evoke the soft hues of vanilla and caramel, while still maintaining the hot runway themes of nature, stone, and texture. The Granite Cabochon Cufflinks add a touch of elegance and flair to this laid back look.

Blue Floral Cufflinks

Going along the lines of texture, these Blue Floral Banner Cufflinks designed by Robert Graham are a perfect addition to that textured suit. Featuring an authentic shirt fabric that will spice up any tweed, light brown, khaki, or gray material. We love absolutely them.

And what are these “new” fabrics? Well let’s just say they are a modern re-vamping of classic fabrics: Harris Tweed, Pinstripe, Plaid, and Herringbone.

Need ideas for a laid back suit? GQ featured a classic cotton Khaki suit by Michael Bastian that would look great with the Blue Floral Banner Cufflinks. Click on the Michael Bastian link to view the entire collection and our favorite look, the Khaki suit.

Persian Rug Cufflinks

All of these textured looks of the season will look great paired with the Blue Floral Banner cufflinks, the Granite Cabochon cufflinks, the Persian Rug cufflinks, or these Banded African Jade cufflinks.

Blue Cufflinks

Blue is a word derived from the old French word “bleu” which is often used to refer to any shade level between navy blue which is the darkest type of blue and cyan which is the brighter type of blue.

The color blue is used to convey peace, calm, strength of character and reason. People who wear blue are said to be dependable individuals who are trustworthy and committed in everything they do. The use of blue cufflinks is perfect for those who are the voice of reason and handle very stressful situations. When it comes to business this is an excellent color to wear as it can transmit serenity to those who see it. This color is also said to aid intuition, calm and sedate.

Blue and its many shades is quite neutral when it comes to gender, in other words men and women can wear this color according to the shade used.

Interesting facts about the color blue:
- Indigo, a deeper tone of blue symbolizes wisdom, spiritual realization and self-mastery.
- In Greek superstition the color blue is said to ward of the “evil eye” which is sometimes cast unintentionally by those who envy prosperous people, the effects are said to turn any kind of good fortune around. This belief has been passed down from generations and among different cultures which is why wearing something blue is said to protect from envious people.
- In oriental beliefs, blue is said to be the color of the throat Chakra, wearing blue can open the throat Chakra improving clariaudience. Chakras are believed to be our “invisible organs” a way to think about them is by thinking of the many sounds which we don’t hear because our hearing abilities are limited, the many sounds are there but we just can’t perceive them, the same applies to our eyes and the many light wavelengths. Wearing a certain color will open the specific Chakra that color is related to, there are seven Chakras in total.
- In American history, blue was used to represent the northern union during the civil war.
- Studies show that people are more productive in blue rooms.

Rectangular Blue Enamel Cuff Links: These are perfect for business people and professionals who want to transmit assertive energy, balance and strength.

Azure Blue Window Cufflinks: Perfect cufflinks for those who want to keep a simple but elegant look.
