I'm going to head out to the park and catch the dying hours of this gloriously hot day!
I have a rule that I tend to follow - I never wear shorts until it gets over 25C!
I got this jacket at a warehouse sale a few weeks ago. It was an absolute steal!
The boat shoes arrived fresh 'n' new this morning! I was in such a dizzy hurry to open the box, that I cut my finger wide open.......

Love the colors again. Only a real man can wear pink that outstanding.

Wow. Yes I agree! Love these kind of pastel shades.
I've worn lots of similar looks since then, but I haven't had time to set a decent picture to take. Will see if I can get some on here this week...

Aaah I can´t wait for the picture, looking forward to it.

Nice to see a more dressed down look from you, but it's equally as stylish :)
Love the combination of pale colours.

Thanks for your lovely detailed comment, Marin.
Well... I try and mix up the shots I post, however a combination of indecisiveness and tardiness prevents me from posting more pictures!

I first saw this look last month in NYC in the elite office on a man I was working with (he must have seen your post) the weather was so hot and humid and I thought well that's what the men wear to the office in this kind of weather, professional, stylish and fun, I hope people see this and are inspired to try this look..........LOVE the boat shoes too! hope your finger is better.
Michael K.
Nicole,
I was really happy to read your comment.
Thank you for taking time to look and comment in such great detail! I'm very thankful for your compliments.
I hope to post some more summer looks like this soon, as I have recently got some other great formal shorts.
The weather lurches from rain to sun so often here, wardrobe planning is always a bit unpredictable...
