Hugo always look like a million bucks. You can tell he regularly updates the look of his bespoke wardrobe.
You're very kind, thank you! Hugo
Sonya too. Always impeccably styled.
They are very elegant in a natural manner (sprezatura)
Also they both take care of themselves, which shines brightly inwards and outwards and is complimented by the Suit.
@@garysmith1477commenting on her style almost seems a waste of words. What could you possibly say? Even the most tasteful sentence would I think be over-egging the pudding.
Bonjour,
I am one your many young french audience member. On top of your many wonderful advices and lessons, i just wanted to tell you that to witness your true love, in the way you talk and listened to each other is truely wonderful. Probably your best influence.
That's so kind of you. Thank you so much, Hugo & Sonya
OMG, love the new camera. The refresh is so smooth.
Another point to add is that odd jackets are easier to buy than a full suit for many people.
Wow, you noticed the new camera set-up (3 BlackMagicDesign 6K) ! You have an expert eye my friend! Cheers, Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS it is instantly noticeable!
I love how you put the glasses ad so effortlessly I wish all the influencers do that
Thank you, Sonya and Hugo, for returning to this format of engaging the themes of bespoke suits and style. I certainly hope to see this kind of show in the future!
Will do my friend! Thanks for your positive words! Hugo & Sonya
I love the Sonya + Hugo duo videos! They are my favourite type.
Many thanks! Hugo
I love seeing you two together! It makes it more dynamic and spontaneous, I also love when you show pictures to exemplify your ideas👏🏻
Well noted Arturo! Best wishes! Sonya & Hugo
How not to look is sometimes as important as how to look. I am a genuine supporter of this channel.
Yes sir! Cheers, Hugo & Sonya
I could not possibly love these two more
That's very kind of you sir. Best wishes, Hugo & Sonya
I heard about The Italian Gentleman recently, which led me to your channel. I LOVE all your videos!
You've both inspired me to travel to Paris from across the pond (UK), I'll be suited and booted! First stop, Septieme Largeur! Then I'll be on the search for an Ulster overcoat.
God bless you for all your videos and teaching the grace of fashion, especially sprezzatura. Thank you Hugo, Sonya and your film team!
💛
Many thanks for your kind words my friend! Hugo
Same thing! I started with Septieme Largeur and was thinking of an Ulster overcoat next!
We must have a similar style!
I love Sonya voice so much. Her voice is a real treasure.
I agree! And I have the luck to listen to this magnificent voice everyday of my life! All my best, Hugo
yes please i love the chemistry both bring, the energy and knowledge.
Merci Leonardo! Hugo
I think you make a wonderful couple and it's really nice to see you both here, I love your honest conversations especially when you sometimes disagree, it's so natural but at the same time comming out of it in a very elegant way.
Many thanks for your feedback! Best wishes, Hugo & Sonya
Great episode! Thank you guys! Of course we want to see more of your shows together, you are such a great team!
Many thanks Nick! Sonya & Hugo
A belated happy new year to you both.🎉🎉🎉 I look forward to watching this video in a couple of hours when I have free time.
Happy new year to you Farid! Cheers, Sonya and Hugo
Great show! I am not much into the man purse!
Having a non-backpack bag mandatory. The perfect size is a laptop bag. This is masculine vs calling it a purse. Bespoke leather to match your shoes is perfection.
Thanks Brian! Cheers, Hugo
Great tips!! Thank you both 👏!
You're very welcome Cesar! Cheers, Hugo
Yes yes yes, a video with Mme Sonya!
I think we all agree! Cheers, Hugo
Happy to hear that many of my habits are seen as stylish. Recycling suit separates, layering different shades, playing with watch strap colors, and carrying a tote are all natural to me as an active father who is always wearing out clothing chasing after my daughter. For a video idea, you should consider exploring children's fashion! Just a suggestion.
Many thanks ! hugo & Sonya
Such excellent suggestions. Thank you .... and yes, together, love it.
Many thanks Simon! Cheers, Hugo
Amazing episode. Yes, let’s see you together… exchanging ideas and thoughts, from both perspectives.
Will do! Many thanks for your kind words. Hugo
I love seeing you two do shows together. Absolutely.
I was a little nervous when you said "How to not look like a 1980's corporate man....". Because when I dressed my brothers for a wedding in the late 1990s, a cousin told us we all looked like bankers. I think that was his vocabulary because he didn't how else to word it. Especially with the ties I chose for my brothers.
Thankfully, I think my look is perfectly current for today's sartorial fashion standards. Maybe always there. But it came from a place of practicality and not style.
My first MTO shoes I bought last year I specified with a double-rubber sole. For a penny loafer. Not only do I love this style loafer, but I walk a lot here in New York City. And it's for casual wear which fits with anything in that genre. And the shoes I'm buying now have somewhat thicker soles because of the walking which have been derby shoes/boots. And the thicker soles look fine on derbies. Maybe perfect.
Separates. Knitwear. Vests. All check-marked. Mostly, because it gets cold in NYC but I don't want to wear an overcoat or maybe in addition to one. Again, very practical. But the first time I saw that was in the 1989 Batman movie. I saw Michael Keaton wearing a suit with a sweater underneath the jacket and thought that looked good.
Lastly... The Man Bag. Gosh, I've had one since the 1990s. I bought it solely for practical reasons: I didn't like the look of a wallet in my back pocket and I just started carrying too many things that I needed. If I had a jacket with half-dozen pocket, that would technically work. But that looks so bad. And having a big wallet in your back pocket can cause back problems. Seriously. It's a known issue.
I took a decent amount of heat for having a man bag in the 1990s. But no so much anymore. My first was an Armani that I had for about 15 years. It was made of nylon and when that finally aged, I got a gorgeous Il Bisonte bag. Looks good with anything I wear it with.
Thanks for the helpful video!
Thank you Ricardo for your interesting and thoughtful comment! All our best, Hugo & Sonya
I think the "banker" look is when it is too uniform. Too much of a suit that once was 3 piece but now is a 2 piece. To not look like a banker is to have your own flare, something that shows your own interests and personality. Not garish, but not a text book workplace dress code.
What a wonderful video, love the two of you together! Yes, more of you together ;) Love the tone on tone look.
Tone on tone is probably my favourite take-away from this episode. Very elegant and discreet. Cheers, Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS Thank you for your reply, Hugo! I look forward to future videos ;}
Great show today. I live it when you are together in the same episode. Very interesting topics. Thank you / Merci
You're very welcome Luc! Cheers, Hugo
Thoughtful list. Phenomenal content.
Thank you sir! Best, Hugo
I love all the items in your video, with the exception of a ball cap. I love turtle neck with a suit, a blazer or a sport coat, which I think creates an artistic look. I don’t wear glasses, so that doesn’t apply to me. One thing you could have added is wearing glasses with a chain around the neck.
Thanks Walter for your feedback. Personally I only wear a cap when I dress casual, but thanks to Sonya I keep an open mind! All my very best, Hugo
Thank you Sonya.................Great looks!
Pleasure! Sonya
Thanks guys!
Pleasure my friend! Hugo
I really enjoyed you guys together in this episode also and the tidbits were great.
Thanks you sir! Hugo & Sonya
Some interesting advice in here!
From the title I expected to hear advice on how to make our suits more current, not what to wear with them to make them look more current, but this is a nice roundup of the current instagram trends I guess.
I never really expected to hear you guys advocating for wearing baseball caps with tailoring, but it's always nice to be surprised 😅
Looking forward to more videos and hope you have a fantastic 2024!
Thanks Theo! Sometimes it's also our duty to keep an open mind! Cheers, Hugo & Sonya
Wow! What a conversation !! I really like and admire (beside, of course, the great tips you mentioned) that the whole conversation is truly not organised or agreed on before between both of you,,it very relaxing and spontaneous discussion. I already do some of your tips , especially tone on tone& the turtle neck with jackets or coats, which I'm obsessed with 😊. Loved to see you together after a long time,,,and my dear Sonya,your jacket is simply beautiful & chic. Thanks & love to both of you from Cairo. ❤
Many thanks Nader for your kind words and your permanent support. Cheers, Sonya & Hugo
Great video!!!! Yes!!!! You make a great team, please do more like this!
Hugo, you are so right. Since 2020, my wardrobe has become so versatile as to blend sartorial style with modern sensibilities. I can blend casual pants and shoes with jackets & shirts, dress oxfords with dainite soles or tennis shoes, jeans with jackets like never before, sweaters and polos with jackets. What a wonderful world! Cheers to you and Sonia, greetings from Colorado!
Always lovely to here your Sartorial vision .Sending you so much good thoughts from Glasgow Scotland 🏴
SLANJ. DAVID 🎉
We love Scotland David! Yours Aye, Hugo & Sonya
Really enjoyed the video!
Thank you sir! Hugo
I'm used to follow Hugo's french channel and it's the first time I'm listening to her, loved the show. You should definitely do more episodes together. Thanks for the recomendations
Thanks my friend! On this channel you can find many episodes with Sonya. All my best, Hugo
I like the linen suits discussion.
Thanks William! Hugo
Thanks for a very interesting list of ideas, Sonya Glynn! Some of them are things I've already tried, some are things I want to try, some are things I probably won't pick up. But always great to have your analysis of what's out there!
I love the shows where the two of you are conversing (the podcasts, too). So you get two thumbs up from me for more shows together!
I also have to thank you for your recommendation of shoe brands- I've now tried Justin Fitzpatrick, Septième Largeur, and CNES after your recommendation of them and have had fantastic experiences with all of them!
Thank you Simon! And congrats for your shoes (3 wonderful brands led by wonderful people). All our best, Sonya & Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS Thank you! I've only met Justin, and he is definitely wonderful. The staff at the Geneva location of 7L I met were also wonderful :)
What a fun, instructive video!! More like this, please. I have always wanted a linen suit. Yes, the wrinkles are part of the charm. You've convinced me to start shopping in time for summer.
That's a great idea David! Cheers, Sonya & Hugo
Great video and fun discussion. My wife and I are like you guys; always together and we love being that way. Thank you for your great content.
We do love being together all the time. It's actually a way of life that is not very popular in the mid 2020's but we love it this way! All our best to you and your wife. Hugo & Sonya
Excellent one. Totally agree apart from the cap with the suit thing.
I can relate to this. For me caps are casual, but I keep an open mind! Best, Hugo
I sweat a lot, sometimes through my trousers, even if I'm sitting in an office chair all day. So it's important to me that I'm wearing cotton trousers that I can wash frequently. As a result, I'm always always wearing odd jackets with odd trousers. I get my cotton trousers made custom with pleats, no back pockets, button fly, suspenders, etc., anything possible to dress them up, but they're still cotton trousers.
I like it a lot - I think it lets you put together nicer color palettes.
Thank you. My favourite polo shirts have a stiffer collar, so that they don't curl up at the edges. Definitely a favourite!
Good point my friend! Cheers, Hugo
I’m reading the Italian Gentleman as we speak. It’s a wonderful, stunning book and I’ve really enjoyed your sartorial talks. It has been incredibly helpful for me in my style journey. Best wishes and hope you two keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for your kind words! All our best, Hugo & Sonya
I love watching your videos. They are so informative. It would be Great if Sonya did more videos on women’s suits.
Excellent video as always, and I would indeed welcome and like to see the two of you do more interesting videos like this, appreciate many of the suggestions and recommendations I have recently been carrying a leather tote (Men's purse) and I really enjoy having it especially when it frees up not having to carry so many objects in my hands thanks again for sharing!
You're very welcome sir. All our best, Hugo & Sonya
Love seeing both of you and the exchange of different opinions and ideas ❤ votre sante
A votre santé chez ami (I don't know if Meursault is your actual name, but it's a fabulous wine). Cheers, Hugo
I'm very glad you mentioned about shoe volume. As a man who has a size 14 US shoe most shoe makers do not know how to properly construct the last . because a shoe heal for a man that has a larger foot should be higher and there is only one shoemaker I. Found that will do that.
Thanks my friend, Cheers, Hugo
Together or alone, you two are always great! 🎩
Many thanks Reginald! Hugo
Separates are so much fun. That's where we can really create.
Yes Sam! All our best, Sonya & Hugo
I was a banker in the 1980's ....or at least a stockbroker .....and would like to see the look return. I did enjoy the suggestions in this video and have started by having Dainite soles installed on my lace-up dress shoes. And as a horseman, have acquired a yellow hunt vest and a tattersall vest to supplement suits. Great idea!
Tattersall vest is so beautiful and versatile! Cheers, Hugo
oh hey, another sartorial talks! thats a pleasant surprise in the morning. I was starting to worry the show was ending/winding down :P
The show is still doing well my friend. We published over 150 episodes so far, and we'll continue for sure! Hugo & Sonya
Very interesting episode. I must say my favourite person wearing a roll neck is the late great Edward Sexton. The contrast of his strong shoulder on his jacket versus the softness of the knit was exquiste to my eye. There are still a few pictures available of him on-line.
You have a great point! We knew Edward and met him several times. A fantastic gentlemen we all miss dearly. Best wishes, Hugo
Add coloured shoelaces to the list. Blue laces go well with brown boots.
Good idea. Hugo
Hi folks. Always lovely to see you. I liked the video, thank you. I use a Cambridge Satchels Batchel. It is a satchel with a handle. Praise the Lord. M
Good morning dear friend! God bless you! Hugo
Thank you so much for this video! Will you do a video on dressing for Baptism!?
We never thought about this. I was baptised in 2016 in a white linen shirt by the way. God bless, Hugo
You are amazing!
Bright and beautiful!
Merci!! Hugo & Sonya
Thank you for this video. I started the process of my last suit by expressing that I wanted something elegant but leaning casual for nice dinners and social events. When the suit was delivered, it looked very rigid and the tailor said, “You look great, like a senator on Capitol Hill!” Ooof!
I believe a lot of suit new comers can relate to your message. Hence this video! All our best, Hugo & Sonya
One way to update the wardrobe is to take existing suits and add new suits, pocket squares, and ties. New ties and pocket squares do miracles for making an older suit stand out. Buying new dress shoes also helps.
Absolutely! Hugo
Cheers from a lawyer from Bulgaria. Youre legends
Thank you sir! Hugo & Sonya
I want to talk about Sonya for a second. She looked amazing from the shirt and jacket to the hair and glasses. She also was a wonderful host with insightful observations, even if I don't want to heed some of them, like the man purse. Yes, she was amazing and we should see more of her!
Fantastic episode this was the most professional I've ever seen you guys, or any of the fashion setups on CZcams. This was like watching a TV production. brilliant advice I love that you're both so authentic makes me very comfortable watching and makes me support you guys and wish you the very best. I only started learning how to dress myself just around 2/3 years ago and your video on the sartorial ladder was my original guideline. And yes more like this together please you too work wonderful together amazing chemistry have a fantastic day whenever you see this❤
Thank you very much for your encouraging message! Best wishes, Hugo & Sonya
Honestly I’m surprised that I do a lot of these already. I mostly wear separates since my job doesn’t require full suits. I wear blue light glasses (and have actually gotten lots of compliments for them) since they reduce my eye strain. I also like doing lots of tan or blue tone on tone outfits. Nice video!
Thank you my friend! Hugo
Good evening mr and mrs Jacomet
Every episode you do are amazing .
Freindly
Sofian
Many thanks Sofian! Hugo & Sonya
Will be in Venezia for Carnevale next week and have one flannel suit and many turtleneck (roll-neck) sweaters with some texture for those times when we aren't in costume. ;)
Lucky man! Cheers, Hugo
Thank you for another interesting discussion, Hugo and Sonya!
Funny that you guys recommend suit separates right off the bat: as a tall, lanky guy that doesn't have to follow a dress code, I haven't had a suit in almost a decade. It's all odd jackets and trousers for me.
Separates are excellent for tall guys indeed! Cheers, Hugo
She wears her jacket with pzazz, rolled up wrists, braces, feminine jewellery and an open shirt. Bravo!
She's great indeed!! Hugo
I absolutely LOVED this Sartorial Talk! It gave me so many ideas to get out of the rut I seem to be in. I love Sonya's precision in ideas but also in language! She's fantastic. And, of course, I had to start following Alberto Córdoba! And, that's when it hit me... it's pronounced COR-do-ba because the accent on the ó tells the reader that the regular rules of pronunciation do not apply here. One must put the accent on the accented syllable...so, Sonya was right! It's pronounced Alberto COR-do-ba. (@Spanish speakers... please correct me if I'm wrong. I speak English and French and only a little Spanish). Wonderful talk Hugo and Sonya!
You're probably right about the pronunciation my friend! Cheers, Hugo
Great tips, thanks for sharing. My last pair of glasses were definitely an upgrade. Not bespoke but a nice natural buffalo horn. One general comment. I believe that today, men who are wearing suits, unless they truly must, such as traditional Swiss banking, are doing so because they want to, not need to. As a result, there are much more interesting looks and many of these tips are being used. By the way, thanks for listing the IG accounts, and keep up the great work! Cheers from Zurich.
Thank you sir for your kind words and for your contribution. Cheers, Hugo
The first step in my sartorial journey happened to be my glasses and to your point, glasses can make a statement or can provide that signature look. I spent a lot of money over the years on various brands, Chrome Hearts, Blinde, Paul Smith and Oliver Peoples to name a few. What I discovered was the less expensive frames today can be just as elegant or striking as you simply have to look diligently to find that diamond in the ruff. Like anything you wear even glasses, a good fit is a priority.
You're perfectly right Phil! Cheers, Hugo
Love the video, I mostly agree with Hugo about a few points.
I personally am 57 and feel the wearing of baseball caps for younger men looks better,and because of my age I would never show my bare ankles 😂😂
I visited Italy a few years ago and picked up the habit of carrying a small leather clutch bag with a wrist strap that looks like an oversized wallet and matches my shoes.
Thank you so much for your content.
You're more than welcome my friend! Hugo
Just discovered your excellent channel. As a lifelong British Mod I have always aspired to elegant dress, if not to your immaculate and rareified level. My daily dress is well cut trousers, Ben Sherman button down shirt, cashmere sweater, and Jeffrey West brogues or boots. For more formal wear I lack the means (I have a classic Jaguar XJ to maintain) for tailor made suits so I have to settle for good quality off the peg, which I choose with care. Keep up the good work.
Many thanks Gareth! Ben Sherman polo shirts are iconic! All my best, Hugo
Very practical. 👍 I’m a leather sole type of guy.
Me too my friend! Hugo
After watching this video, I realized that the one thing I can confidently say I have in common with Hugo is... asthma haha kidding aside, lovely to see you both chat candidly as always!
Asthma used to be complicated to live with when I was a boy. But today, with all the sprays we have, it's much easier of course. All my best, Hugo
I don't agree with the combat sole shoes. It feels more of a fashion trend that will be dated in a few years.
As for the "go to hell trousers", the more outlandish the colour, the wealthier the person is a general rule of thumb in England
Thanks Steven. Actually the rubber soles are on the market for many years. The new thing is to use them with loafers. Best! Sonya & Hugo
I agree on the combat sole. I love my big chunky boots but they completely disrupt the elegance of a suit. Like trying to write a sentence in two different languages.
+1 on the turtleneck though. So chic.
Hi! Great content! May I please ask where Sonya got her blue and white striped baseball cap?
A general comment about the series. I am getting great value from what you both do. The candor is very impressive. Hugo is a Frenchman who seems so comfortable going back and forth from French to American culture. He admits his personal and stylistic prejudices, he will say something to the effect, "I didn't know about that American brand but it appears to be well-made, but style and taste-wise it is not for me." Going to visit Trenton and Heath- great idea. And watching this one and the episode where you each can challenge the other on any topic, is impressive. Sonya and you both strong, independent personalities but allow kindly for each other's opinion. I haven't found episodes of you guys in Japan. Is that in the works?
Many thanks for your kind and encouraging words. Bien amicalement ! Hugo
I’m with Hugo (and many others) when it comes to baseball caps. I have seen many people wearing one with a suit, blazer or coat and it always looked odd, the gap in terms of formality is just too big. Not to mention that looking too formal is really not a problem that most people have.
And don’t get me wrong; I do own a cap myself. But I wear it with a waxed cotton trucker jacket or a casual flannel (over)shirt, not with my cashmere trench coat or my wool cardigan.
Speaking of headwear, I’d recommend most people to do the opposite and swap a baseball hat for a linen, cotton or wool flat cap (depending on the weather/season). It’s not as formal and outdated as a hat but it can instantly elevate your look even when worn with a pair of jeans and a T-shirt (just like swapping a pair of runners for a pair of leather shoes).
Agree. Actually I do wear a cap from time to time, but only with a casual peacoat and a safari jacket. Cheers! Hugo
Dear Sonja and Hugo, How do you best fold your clothes, and how do you store clothes, when you travel?
Especially when traveling on business. Can je make a video about this sometime?
Good idea. Cheers, Hugo
The world definitely has its own elegance.
I wish there were more easement like putting on some clothes.
Not sure I understand your point, but it's maybe because I'm just French 😅🤣. Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS the world can be a rough place to be, it’s nice having some beauty around 🍻
I think paraboot which is a french brand could work with casul suit in cotton, linen or tweed/clvary twill as they have the thick sole
You're right, Paraboot is known since decades for a specific model with thick soles. Beautiful French company by the way. Cheers, Hugo
I have a linen blazer similar to the one pictured in the video. I just cant use it because of the wrinkles on the sleeves. Is this acordona sleeve look part of the linen style?
Well, to be honest the better the linen quality, the less the "accordion" effect on the sleeves. But yes, you have to accept it, if reasonable of course. Cheers, Hugo
We love to see you together always
Hello! I do love you videos. Your advices really help me to improve my taste . Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience. Could you please tell me where I can find shoes with vibram sole you’ve showed us in this video? I like it and want to buy one . 😊

Finally, someone mentioned spectacles. It has always been a little off when I see elegant men with nice suits wear ill-fitting eyewear that fall off their nose - it horrifies me when people even ask me specifically for large eyewear that falls from their nose because influencers wear it.
Dear Hugo and Sonya,
I am truly inspired by the gentleman's outfit at 23:07 in this video! His ensemble is extraordinary and aligns perfectly with the day-to-day wardrobe I aspire to build, particularly in settings where suits are not the norm. Could you provide detailed guidance on how to construct a wardrobe based on the foundation of this look? Additionally, I would love to know the model of the backpack he is wearing.
Thank you both for continuously producing such exceptional content. Your insights and style have profoundly influenced my sartorial journey.
Warmest regards,
Pierre. A.
😂😂😂❤❤ I love you guys. Sonia ❤❤ she's so sweet but tough. Hugo is a man's man. 😂😂 no pulses 😂 ohh man..listen Hugo. It's called man's bag more like backpack. Very stylish and very current. especially in UK because of bad weather. Enough to hold a bottle of whisky. Aftershave and scarves. Usually beautiful leather. Baseball hats not for us gentleman 😂 I agree with Hugo about the cheap baseball cap. Great content video as usual.
Thank you my friend 🤣🤣😂! Sweet but tough indeed! Cheers, Hugo
What cedar spray do you use?
Hello Hugo and Sonya. Very entertaining discussion with nice talking points. Also nice outfits. I especially admire your tie Hugo; it has an elegant dimensionality to it. Who made it? Tie Your Tie? Also, beautiful light grey suit. It is very visually pleasing how the suit and your hair have some kind of harmony about them. Is the cloth a heavy flannel by Hardy Minnis/HFW? And those tortoise shell glasses are distinguished.
Yes it's Tie your Tie of course and the suit is a bespoke DB by the late Luigi Dalcuore with a Fox Brothers heavy wool (400gr). Cheers, Hugo
You guys are a beautiful couple.
Hi guys, great video. I was just wondering if there were any ready to wear brands for suits you’d recommend or even made to measure. I’m based in London, I’ve bought a couple of pieces from Pini Parma which I liked. Are there any other designers on a similar line you could recommend? Thank you.
I think Cad and the Dandy can be a good option in London. Cheers, Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKSThank you. I will take a look.
Some good advice, particularly suit separates, but baseball caps? With due respect, I can't see how that could be recommended.
I'm not too much of a fan with caps neither (I wear one only when I'm casual). All my best, Hugo
I had quit few of made to measure suits a good few years ago, and the arms were wide and the legs ! Wide i found a alteration tailor and OMG he's trimmed them down and they look fab most people especially the UK Men dress terribly outside London. so if somebody says in a tracksuit that my pinstripe suit looks like the Wolf of Wall Street IM happy ! also you can now where a nice tee shirt like Miami vice under a nice suit .
A great alteration tailor is a must! Cheers, Hugo
Hello Hugo & Sonya, hope you are doing well. Which cedar spray do you use? I think it would be a great episode where you talked about the items needed to keep all the high end fabrics safe and properly cared for.
Good afternoon. We buy our cedar sprays at an "organic shop" (we call it BIO in France). Only natural stuff. And it works decently. Cheers, Hugo
Thank you for your response. @@SARTORIALTALKS
I'm having a difficult time with the chunky sole dress shoes. Hmmm... can't see wearing a cap with a suit, either.
Same here, no cap with a suit. However chunky soles can be supremely comfortable yet very stylish (like the pair I show). All my very best, Hugo
Meanwhile I’m trying to do my best Gordon Gekko impression (at least sartorially). 1980s power suiting is an incredibly fun and unexpected look for us ladies.
Well, Gordon Gekko is not exactly your usual banker of the 80s! Cheers, Hugo
