Five New Year’s Resolutions for your Wardrobe

Can you believe it’s resolution time again? We’re still trying to remember our optimistic dreams and vows from last year…

Recommended Videos

Anyway. While you’ve been debating over whether to join a gym and actually turn up once a week or not, we have five resolutions that you will want to keep and won’t involve you hauling ass to the treadmill. We have scoured the current collections of our favorite brands to bring you five wardrobe resolutions that will ensure 2014 is your most stylish year yet.

Mix and match our selection of essentials for easy dressing that won’t let you down all year round…

1. The T-shirt

During the colder months, layer this staple T ($72) beneath your sweat or wear it solo once the summer hits; the supreme quality will ensure it lasts throughout 2014 and beyond. The super soft Egyptian cotton fabric and classical fit found Sunspel’s bold promise that this is the best T-shirt you will ever wear.

2. The Sweater

London-based brand Good Measure is undoubtedly one to watch for 2014. Any lover of luxury basics will admire their M-21 Crew Neck Sweatshirt ($131) for the quality and purity of its design. Crafted from 350g loop back jersey, this sweat features all the design features of vintage US sportswear, from the ribbed V-neck insert to the cover stitched seams.

3. The Jacket

Jacket trends come and go – 2013 was undoubtedly the year of the varsity right? Think classical and pared-back for 2014 and you’ll literally be able to work it with anything in your wardrobe. The Motorcycle Jacket ($460) by A.P.C. will last a lifetime. Layer your trusty sweat beneath it until summer when you can change up for your white T – razor-sharp and timeless.

4. The Jean

True denim dudes know Japanese denim is the only way to go right now. Our Legacy’s Raw Blue Jeans ($192) were made in Italy using only the finest raw 12 oz Japanese denim. The deep indigo shade is spot on for 2014 and details including the exposed rivets and removable front cotton-loop create a timeless workwear vibe.

5. The Boot

French footwear brand Paraboot are set for a huge resurgence in 2014. Either way, we love their Chamrousse boot ($536.58) in this versatile smooth coffee hue. The boot is Norwegian sewn and features a durable rubber sole and smooth full-grain calf leather outer. These babies will probably go with everything in our wardrobe and will take you from work to weekend in one smooth stride.

For the love of Italy: Hockerty releases 14 looks with inspiration from 14 Italian locations
Blazer, Clothing, Coat

I am a traveler at heart. Every day, I wake up and have coffee, and stare out the window at a world still full of wonders and mysteries I have yet to uncover. Since the day I joined the Army, my heart has always been on the road, in the sky, or aboard a ship. The idea that there is a part of the world I have yet to see is both exhilarating and frustrating. Chasing those undiscovered corners of the world started as a passion and an experiment and became a way of life and an addiction. I say all that to say, I find inspiration on the road. I see the world around me as a canvas for my imagination.

I am also a menswear fanatic. From selling suits to writing about them, a good suit is always in my bag with me. So when a brand I love, Hockerty being a favorite, finds inspiration in a place, I pay attention. I wrote about their summer edit a while ago, with their colors at the forefront of my attention. But I missed something. I missed that all fourteen looks they debuted were inspired by different places in Italy.

Citizen is adding a new limited-edition model to its Tsuyosa Shore line, and it’s got a great look to it if I say so myself.

The Tokyo-based watchmaker’s new drop features a deep black dial, with a gradient effect and a textured surface that catches light differently depending on the angle.

The German company has been making square watches out of Glashütte since 1992, when the Tetra launched alongside the Tangente, Ludwig, and Orion. (Fun fact: the name Glashütte is a legally protected designation of origin.)
