Libation | Cucumber Collins

July 8th, 2010

There’s no escape from the heat. I was in New York and temps were up to 100. I got back to Chicago and it was 90 with humidity. The Summer’s heating up and we need to cool down. With a buzz.

I’ve always liked a Tom Collins. It’s crisp, refreshing and light, an easy classic to make: gin, lemon juice, sugar, and soda water. I tried an updated version, the Cucumber Collins, and now it’s my go to drink.

Summer Time and Summer Tees | The White Tee Shirt

June 14th, 2010

The white tee shirt has been a staple in a man’s wardrobe during Summer as much as a white dress shirt has been for the corporate office. Understated and classic, they help reflect the sun’s glare and also protect your dress shirts from sweat when worn beneath. Plus they’re so damn comfortable.

A white tee shirt should fit your build. You don’t want them too long or loose, but close to your frame so a dress shirt can easily fit over it and be worn without. We found this helpful guide on some good choices on white tee shirts. We like the pocket option as it lends a bit more tee shirt and a little less undershirt.

The Kindest Cut | From Pants to Shorts

June 1st, 2010

Feeling the buttery soft, faded fabric in my hands, the memories rolled by. Summer parties on the lawn, barbecues, vacations and late nights filled with debauchery. I had these chino’s for about 10 years and it was time to retire them.

Or was it? It seemed like a shame to toss them out.
