i was talking to a mate about colour because i’ve always liked adding brighter bits into otherwise pretty simple outfits.

he told me about something he calls echo theory.

the idea is that one colour on its own can sometimes feel random.

but if you repeat it somewhere else in the outfit, even really subtly, it suddenly looks intentional.

red neckerchief.

tiny red detail on the trainer.

mustard cap.

warm tone somewhere else in the fit.

it doesn’t have to match perfectly.

it just has to echo.

since then, whenever i add colour to an outfit, i normally look for somewhere else to bring a little bit of it back in.

one colour can look accidental.

two starts to look like a choice

I genuinely think I’m more interested in style in my 30s than I was at 20. I’m altering things, wearing things I wouldn’t have considered before and generally overthinking the smallest details.

Anyone else feel like their style is only just getting started?

I think my twenties were spent trying to work out what I was supposed to wear. Now in my thirties I’m finally having a bit more fun figuring out what I actually like.

Anyone else finding their style later in life?

3 ways to add personality to your fits: Add an extra layer, tuck or adjust something and add an accessory.

On their own they might not seem like much but combined they really elevate the fit which adds a bit of personality to your outfit choices!

FIT TALK: So your outfit feels a bit naff when you’re wearing it. You just need to style it differently.

This is basically the formula I keep experimenting with at the moment. The clothes themselves can stay simple — I’m just changing what happens around them.

Add a layer, alter the proportions and add some character with an accessory.

WEARING vs STYLING: I’ve stopped leaving everything exactly as it comes and started tinkering with ticks, rolls and adding accessories.

Treating the first version of an outfit as exactly that, the first version. Then I mess around and see where it goes.

How you styling your outfits?

I was thinking about why some outfits look good on paper but still feel a bit… flat.

#menswear #intentionalstyle #outfitideas

I often get 90% of the way there. I choose a good tee, decent trousers and the right shoes. Then I stop.

The last 10% is the bit that makes it feel styled. Rolling the trouser slightly, tucking in the tee or Adding an extra layer.

Basically, the outfit is already there, I’m just finishing it.
Now whenever I get dressed I ask myself, what’s the last 10%? by @flynn.fits

FIT TALK: I have a theory about why some outfits look styled… Something has usually been changed from how it naturally sits.

I’ve been looking back at the outfits I like most and there’s nearly always some kind of adjustment happening. A tuck, a roll, a crop, a layer. So next time you catch yourself staring in the mirror wondering what isn’t working, try these three things.

WEARING vs STYLING: I have a theory about personal style. The more I alter, tuck, roll and restyle things, the more I feel like I’m actually developing a style rather than just buying clothes I like.
