My Apologies. Its fashion time.

I just want to begin by saying sorry to the true followers for my lack of fashion dedication this past week... I've began a new venture in my life, well not so new, but continued. It just so happens to be a new job. So thanks for hanging in there and baring with me through my training this week and ignoring my minimal teamwork with bagger (she forgave me at happy hour the other night... how could she not, we went and saw twilight- think about it.)

Second, I have to get this off my chest. I have to. I had the worst nightmare ever the other night. EVER.
I dreamt that Adam Scott was gay?

Bro love.


No love.



ok. moving on, now that I said that! The past is the past, and until proven guilty I know my dream was just a dream well nightmare!

Now onto the good stuff, if my apology and nightmare werent entertaining enough!!!

FASHION. Presidents Cup Recap.

Yep we admitted to our follies, we incorrectly predicted the outcome!

The P-cup fashion is not NEARLY as exciting and adventurous as the Ryder Cup. I must say we found it rather bland on both sides. We've concluded the awards for most fashionable would have to be the Internationals who lost! They certainly lost with flair...


The Americans were outfitted by Peter Millar. Everything from knit polos, pants, and the sweaters all fell under the control of Mr. Millar. Every member of the U.S. Presidents Cup team recieved, "... custom super 130’s wool suits, imported cotton dress shirts and silk neckwear, to merino wool sweaters, superfine wool pants, and double mercerized Egyptian cotton knit shirts..." I would strongly suggest checking out the Peter Millar website if you were a bit discouraged with the Americans colorless, uninspiring, basic, yet classy silhouette. A couple of the pieces that we were most impressed with would be Tuesday's green shirt with yellow placket (which was one of the most exciting spurts of colors we saw all week...) and Thursday's Navy blue shirt with the red placket. 
What does everyone love (and if you dont, you're missing out...) LAYERS.
Hello sweater vests. Thankyou Peter Millar for simply making a half zip pullover into a sweater vest half zip with some swag. 




Yes it may have been simple like most of the weeks separates, but one thing that the American squad did well was layer, and bring texture to their looks...


but time for some VARIETY!


We just want to give a special shout out to Mr. Geoff Ogilvy for his astounding mustache growth through movember.  




Where do we begin? How about where the Americans left off? Layers. sweater vests yet again. Accept the Internationals rock more of a black cardigan vest with yellow accents that mimic the designs in the polo shirts underneath. 






Majority of the International polo shirts had designs on them, yeah they werent the most graphically advanced, but hey it added movement and excitement to their appearance!





Normans  company put together the designs for the week, our biggest concern with the designs were that they relied alot on argyle, but really I dont think it's a concern, more of just an observation! An abundance of ARRRRgyle sweaters.




 I think we are seeking to find new and inventive ways to recreate the classic style without being to simple and or overdone. 


***We do want to reach out to both teams, please note that no matter what shape or size you are, a tailor can be your best friend. And really help you achieve your most flattering silhouettes. We do understand that tighter is not always better, but there is a difference between tight, and fitted (especially when done correctly.)

Lets get creative golf designers.

We challenge you.
