The Style Student

Style Student: I have been interested in great style for as long as I can remember. One of my first memories is admiring a red silk scarf of my fathers. Thanks to my American mother I grew up with a very different dress sense to the other kids in school. Clothes had to be functional but they also had to be colourful and fun to wear. I have spent the last few years trying to find a happy balance between the conflicting sartorial influences of my Anglo-American heritage. Which has lead me to my somewhat subdued version of New England Prep. This blog is to serve partly as a guide to others trying to find there own unique style and partly as a record of my own sartorial preference at this point in my life. I hope you enjoy it.
