Blue Industry is a British brand that caters to guys who want a more relaxed fit while still fitting slim. This summer, colour is hot and Blue Industry shirts offer fun colour and great details. For comfort, the interior cuffs and neck are lined with jersey.
Danish fashion house SAND continues to combine tailored fits with European charm for their Spring 2012 collection. Definitely not for the wallflower kinda guy, this collection is full of bright, contrasting colours and patterns.

Orange gingham shirt $195 with a Tiger of Sweden tuxedo jacket. Plaid shirt $225.

Like the SAND Creative Director says, “These are pieces that are easy to live with and hard to get rid of.”

Color is the hot trend for Spring. Look for orange and green to be the new fashion colors for guys (easier to relate to then the pinks and purples of the past seasons).
For spring weight blazers, we just got in two stunners! A light blue cotton blazer with satin taping, perfect for summer weddings and social events for $750. This navy blue pin textured blazer is perfect for red carpet worthy events or when you want to impress on date nights. $795
Gotstyle Private Label Shirts $165 each.
There’s not much needed to be said about our Private Label shirts. They’ve got a modern fit, great patterns and if you’re a Gotstyle customer you probably have a few of them in your closet already. Whether you wear them to work, out after work or on weekends with jeans, these are such great shirts and the patterns for fall are awesome.
Guys, there’s nothing worse to woman than a man in ill-fitting clothes. If you’re not borrowing your father’s clothes, why look like it? A slim fitting shirt goes a long way, so stock up now!
British cut Ted Baker has arrived for fall, including some fantastic shirts and blazer. If slim fit Italian isn’t your thing, this is your next best bet. Complete with a striped lapel, this Ted Baker blazer is priced at $565.
Four new styles of shirts are available, ranging from $195 to $265. Whether it’s solid, plaid, striped or patterned, Ted has you covered.
MELISSA SAYS: If you are looking for a collection that is modern classic with just enough of a twist, Ted is for you. It doesn’t have to shout, but his detailing will get you noticed. My favorite item for the season is his blazer with the detailing on the lapel (above) – it’s what every smart dressed man should be wearing out on a Saturday night.
If you’re into trim cut shirts, sweaters, suits, and blazers (because you should be), look no further than SAND. For that modern man, it’s tailored for the guy who has interest in European styling.
Straight from the lion’s mouth:
A focused collection where every piece, every colour, every fabric, and every detail has been capsuled to the essential, to the modern.
Shirts are still with details, this season in calm, interesting exclusive harmony.
Elbow patches – GO FOR IT. On both blazers and knit, and why not try a suit and a coat? The elbow patches theme is still upcoming in the shops and has not yet reached the peak.
Two tone fabric, two tone colours, a tendency where SAND is specialized in blazer, suits, shirts, knit, and even jeans.
There’s a wide selection of shirts to choose from: solids to floral, plaid to striped. Prices range from $225 to $250.
SAND’s fashion forward collection of blazers for fall 2011 are better than ever. Built for the fashion conscious, these four new blazers this season are sure to stand out. Prices range from $695 to $850.
MELISSA SAYS: We have been carrying SAND since it launched in Canada. For fall, I love the red carpet looks that are perfect for any TIFF party and whenever you want to stand out in a sea of penguins. They are on trend with the new micro prints and still offer the best coloured striped and checks. Don’t forget to layer their fine gauge sweaters over your shirts, to give them a fresh new look. My favorite item of the season is the navy tuxedo with the black satin shawl collar, perfect for the guy who likes it stirred, not shaken.
