~ Can I tell you a secret? I love styling menswear JUST as much (sometimes maybe more) than womenswear. I’ve always loved helping style guy friends and those I’ve dated. This guide is always so much fun for me to put together!
I often hear from friends that their husbands/dads/boyfriends are the hardest for them to shop for. It seems like a lot of my friends’ husbands/dads/boyfriends are a lot like me: they really just get what they need and want for themselves! However, I think it’s the gifts that you never really knew you needed (but now cannot live without) that tend to be the most fun!
Stand outs from my guide….my friend, Lindsey, is an incredibly talented designer and started designing for a menswear brand called MuskOx. Their flannels are truly AMAZING! I posted a photo on my instagram…but really the quality is incredible and the fabric is soft yet thick enough that it can be worn open with a tee layered underneath.
I also find it difficult to come across a truly great pair of driving mocs at a reasonable price…until I came across this perfect pair (also pictured above!). I also think that the needlepointed cufflinks and the bluetooth turntable are truly wonderful!
Don’t stress! There’s still time to surprise the special men in your life with something EXTRA that they never knew they needed. If you need more ideas, scroll below!
Gratefully with love,
