Masculine Lifestyle, Modern Anthology

By

Wouldn’t it be cool if you could shop for your home decor, interior designer and spring wardrobe at the exact same time? It seems Becka Citron and John Marsala had the same thought when they opened Modern Anthology. Fusing a brick-and-mortar retailer, full-service interior design firm and web store all in one, it’s pretty much the only one-stop home shop you need. Both with backgrounds in interior design, Citron and Marsala are curation experts. Not only will you find treasures like new and vintage furniture and the coolest home accessories, Modern Anthology has some of the most meticulously crafted clothing in town. Whether you visit the store in Brooklyn’s Dumbo neighborhood or shop online, you’re bound to find artifacts that reflect an experienced and masculine lifestyle.

Before we send you off to explore Modern Anthology on your own, we want to share a few of our favorite products on the site. If you’re a fan of foosball or even have a table in your pad, these bottle openers are the coolest bar accessories ever. Crafted from vintage pieces, no two are exactly the same. Because April showers aren’t behind us quite yet, every man needs a good parka to get him through the spring season. Have you seen one more handsome than this hooded version from La Panoplie? Not to forget Modern Anthology’s interior design roots, we can’t wait to spruce up our space with a texture-rich pillow from Tabula Rasa. But don’t let us ruin all of the surprises. Check out modernanthology.com or visit their Dumbo store at 68 Jay Street in Brooklyn to get your fix.

Caterpillar celebrates a century of building the world with CAT Centennial collection
CAT Apparel has been the go-to for the hardest working people for 100 years, now they celebrate it
CAT Centennial navy tee

Men have been building the world since the industrialized society took hold and grew to encompass empires. Everything from the pyramids to skyscrapers is the product of ingenuity and grit, all on the backs of the hardest-working men in the world. Since 1925, they have been one of the leading manufacturers of heavy equipment across the globe. From defense work and engines in World War II to building every major city in America, they are a name every engineer and construction company trusts. Because of that, the name expanded to workwear, becoming one of the first names you see on the men and women actually building the structures we use every single day. To celebrate the 100th anniversary, the brand launched the Caterpillar Centennial Collection, a number of items including graphic tees and articles inspired by the very machines that inspired them. Whether you follow the trends and want to embrace the workwear aesthetic or you are a fan of the brand, these are the perfect fit.

Wax London believes polos shouldn’t be boring
Get creative with your polos with Wax London
Wax London polo black floral

The men's polo is one of the staple shirts every man needs. It is something that has endured since the days of LaCoste wearing them on the tennis courts. Nowadays, it is the paramount piece for any man looking to wear a basic business casual wardrobe. Of course, that doesn't mean it has to be basic. Most men tend to opt for a solid golf polo and a pair of basic chinos, paired with a hybrid dress shoe. While that has led the polo down a path to gaining a dad shirt image, that doesn't mean it needs to stay there. Wax London is one of the leaders in making everyone, from celebrities to dads, look stylish, and they don't think a polo needs to be boring or basic. Instead, Wax London polos this season emphasize patterns, standing out, and being seen as a celebrity, even if you're just a dad.

As the April showers come to a close, the May flowers will be in full bloom. While that sounds like a great time of year (unless, of course, you struggle with allergies), there is one thing that stubbornly sticks around this time of year, especially if you are north of the Mason-Dixon Line, and that is the cold snaps. The unpredictability of the spring means you are bound to have those days where you are a bit chilly in the morning and a little warm in the afternoon. The best way to combat this little problem is with the subtle art of layering. UNTUCKit is known for creating some of the most comfortable shirts of the last decade and a half, and they have released a spring collection that makes layering the simplest it's ever been.
