Words by Eleni Papaioannou
Dark grey shorts and trimmed shirts make for the ultimate summer flannel look.
“Flâneur (pronounced: [flɑnœʁ]), from the French noun flâneur, means “stroller”, “lounger”, “saunterer”, or “loafer”. Theflâneur was, first of all, a literary type from 19th century France, essential to any picture of the streets of Paris. The word carried a set of rich associations: the man of leisure, the idler, the urban explorer, the connoisseur of the street”. (source, Wikipedia)
“EDGY TIME” BY SWATCH IS THE PERFECT COMPANION TO ANY FLANEUR PASSING HIS TIME IN EXQUISITE MANNER.
For the urban explorer that loves his city looks and cannot part with his business grays even during holiday season, Massimo Dutti have created the perfect excuse: lovely Bermuda shorts camouflaged as flannel trousers and crispy-white shirts with tiny little trims that match the shorts. Oh, boys will always be boys. And if they want to look dandy by the pool, they will do so in perfect charm.
GREY GARDENS
·This look is absolutely perfect for a short business trip to a warm destination, or for a sudden meeting with clients in the middle of your time off.
·Even if gray is not considered a summer color, look how sexy it can turn out, if worn the right way.
·Accessorize thoughtfully and stay simple and chic with all the tiny details of your look.
·Shoes? Who needs them! Really, though, you will look fantastic in a pair of sneakers or some nice, woven espadrilles.
