It is that time of year again. The summer is gone. Fall has made its way to most of the country. Apple picking, Halloween decorations, spooky movies, and of course, a rewatch of Gilmore Girls. Not sure why Gilmore Girls is a must watch around this time of the year? Maybe it is because there is something about the autumn feelings that makes us long for Stars Hollow. In any case, the weather has turned and in the last few months of the season, holiday guides are starting to land. Tom Beckbe, a relative newcomer on the scene, dropped their new fall collection, and it is stocked full of classic American outdoors looks that demand we drop the remote and get outside as soon as possible.

Your inner American James Bond

Does this brand have anything to do with James Bond? No. But when we look through the new drops from them, we can’t help but be reminded of the iconic James Bond look from Skyfall that taught us all about the importance of layering. You can almost completely recreate this look with the pieces from Tom Beckbe.

Founded in 2015 by Radcliff Menge, Tom Beckbe took shape from his inspiration from the Southern outdoors and the way he could disappear into the wilderness with his grandfather to learn how to hunt and fish. Starting with their first and most iconic piece, the waxed Tenshaw Jacket, the brand is setting up to be a long staple in the industry with a focus on quality and on functionality. Whether you are wanting to recreate a James Bond look or visit Stars Hollow.

Bugatchi elevates their new collection with Made in Italy

The world's biggest and most prominent fashion houses tend to center around four locations: New York, Paris, London, and Milan. It is no coincidence that the primary fashion weeks occur every year in these four cities. It also shouldn't surprise you that the some brands seek out some of the best mills in the world in these regions. The Bugatchi Fall and Winter 2025 collection chose to elevate their garments with Made in Italy, an upgrade that takes their already top-tier garments to the next level.

"Italy offers an unparalleled depth of skill, marrying tradition with innovation in a way that sparks inspiration," Bugatchi Creative Director Anthony Keegan says. "Each piece we craft is not merely an item of clothing; it is a story woven with the threads of quality and expertise. We would sit in the breathtaking expanse of southern Italy, sipping a perfect espresso, continually reminded of the endless possibilities that lie before us. The response to this collection has been nothing short of extraordinary, and I have no doubt this marks the inception of a profoundly passionate relationship with Italian craftsmanship."

Daniel Craig proves he’s more than just a James Bond style icon
Daniel Craig’s legendary style: Precision tailoring, vibrant colors, and red carpet mastery
Daniel Craig attends the Germany premiere of James Bond 007 movie "Skyfall" at the Theater am Potsdamer Platz on October 30, 2012 in Berlin, Germany

When it comes to red carpet style, Daniel Craig commands the room with a swagger all his own. The former Bond star is currently making waves with his new nominated film film Queer and continues to redefine menswear with his trademark mix of classic tailoring and daring color schemes. He has worn some of the best James Bond looks, and Craig has become known for his razor-sharp tuxedos, velvet jackets, and precision-tailored suits that ooze sophistication. But lately, he’s shown he possesses the power to switch it up, taking a definitive turn towards a more progressive style throughout the year and signifying a new look for the charismatic performer. 
Craig commandeers classic and progressive looks

Many fans think of the former James Bond actor as the pinnacle of classic menswear, and Craig can definitely rock a tuxedo, as he demonstrated on the red carpet for the premiere of his other hit series Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery. But, if there was ever an event to sport a new look, it would be Paris Fashion Week, and as one of the most revered events in all of style, it was the perfect moment for Daniel Craig to debut a new aesthetic by a beloved brand.

Dandy Del Mar drops new polos to get you ready for the spring
Get the polo that's hot for the market in 2025
Dandy Del Mar blue johnny collar

When the winter starts to be more memory than future dread, your wardrobe will need a seasonal update. Maybe even a seasonal exchange (if you live in NYC, you may understand the off-season wardrobe storage problem). When you are ready for the seasonal updates, picking up some short-sleeve options is the number one item on the list. Everything from tees and button-ups to short-sleeve henleys can make up the perfect spring wardrobe. However, the most classic item for the new season is the polo. The Dandy Del Mar Spring and Summer 2025 hit the shelves a month ago, and they brought great colors and fabrics for us to salivate over. But they added more for our pleasure: new polos to make our warm weather more stylish than ever.
For the love of the johnny collar

There are a handful of polos for your sartorial pleasure when you are ready for the upgrade. While there are some great colors, patterns, and textures to choose from, including moontide and albero in the Cannes Knit polo, dawn in the Antibes Crochet, and The Palamos was blessed with albero and a gorgeous cappuccino. However, the most noticeable aspect of the Dandy Del Mar polo edit is the inclusion of the johnny collar. Many of the Dandy Del Mar polos feature the johnny collar, giving the entire collection the '60s-'70s aesthetic we have always loved about the brand. Now that the weather is starting to turn in our favor, we are ready to have an impossibly stylish spring.
