Dapper Dads and Fashionable Fathers Share Their Summer Style Tips

July 26, 2019

Before I got married, black t-shirts and blue jeans were my go-to. I had about 5 sets of each and they always looked good, I thought. I’ve since learned a few tips thanks to my wife, my daughter, and Queer Eye being on Netflix (I French Tuck all the time now).

October 5, 2017

At last, the Summer has officially gone and it’s time for the cooler, rainier weather to have it’s turn. And, after a few months I’m hoping that the snow will come and stay for a while. The first thing to sort out is replacing my old boots. I’ve been ...

The Day I Wore a Canadian Tuxedo

I’ve lived in Vancouver, BC for 5 years now, and it’s about time I really start to dress the part. I need to dress for the great outdoors, combined with being able to fit in with the fashionable young’uns of Main Street. Plus, now the weather has started to cool down and the ...
