Ah, THE MET GALA, 2024!🎉 What lessons can be learned from this annual invitation only costume party described by many as frivolous, elitist and over the top? Well here are a few: >CONFIDENCE AT ANY AGE - At 27 years old, Zendaya owns every room she enters. Just look. >PERCEPTION ISNT ALWAYS REALITY- 2 years ago while waiting to board a flight from NYC to Rome, a familiar face wearing a chic floral dress, trademark dark glasses and a warm smile scanned the empty seats around me then approached to ask politely if she could sit next to me. #annawintour -no devil, no prada- she was lovely. > ANYONE CAN HAVE A MISSTEP, ADDRESS IT QUICKLY Confusion over a clash between the gala theme, "Sleeping Beauties, reawakening fashion" AND the official dress code, "Garden of Time" caused a media uproar. Is it a #Disney theme? Is it a nod to #GrimmBrothers? What is it? Well, it was neither. Combined with an apology, Anna explained that it was meant to be a nod to florals and springtime. How could the leader at #vogue, a publishing organization with access to the best writers and editors anywhere, NOT catch this messaging mixup? It happens to everyone. Leaders apologize quickly, explain, move on. >IT'S OK TO HAVE FUN! Creative expression taps our joy center. Film, fashion, dance, music, art, comedy or any other form of creativity allows us to express ourselves joyfully which makes us better at our work. #leadership #metgala #fashion #thedevilwearsprada

The simple penguin suit is a thing of the past. Men walked the red carpet last night expressing their own fashion taste and personal flair. A big similarity amongst Hollywood's leading men was a little added sparkle on the lapel and a flared trouser. Also several men rocked a boot and some with a slight heel. Whether you're a fan or not, I think much of what we saw can trickle down into our own closets. My favorite is the elevated lapel pin. You can easily add something sparkly to your jacket at your next occasion formal or casual. Most of us probably don't even need to really look too far. Before heading out to purchase your bling I would inquire with your wife, girlfriend, or even mother-in-law. They may very well have what you are looking for. If you are unable to find inspiration there I would then check out a local resale or vintage shop. Elevating your dress is about the details. If you are unsure of how, when, or what to wear having a personal stylist can alleviate the frustration. I dress men for a reason. Should you find yourself frustrated or in need of a second opinion drop me a message. #ReadyForAnything #jhilburn #custom #custommade #menswear #mensclothing #fashion #style #mensstyle #personalstyle #dapper #lifestyle #chicago #evanston #northshore #mdm #maindempstermile #lifestyledbyjackson #entrepreneurship #finance #banking #healthcare #sales #business

Posted by #GC short while ago, relevant with the summer weddings and parties lined up on your social schedules: "Should you wear a tie or bowtie? Is it cool not to?" In short ⏫ ? Make your own decisions. Leave us out of it. The long version 🔼 ? 1. When considering a black tie or formal event, we recommend wearing one. It completes the look and is a sign of respect to your host, or to your guest (whichever role you are fulfilling). 2. It adds that touch of colour, vibrancy, humour or flair to an otherwise static or classic outfit. And maybe to someone's day, too! 3. It gives your outfit a second or third look. The same outfit, without a necktie, can look a lot different. Our advice ⤵ Wear one, if only to be able to take it off at some point and let your hair down. Finally: looking for that perfect accessoire? One point of truth: https://lnkd.in/gFwdaXkF ( 🕴 link to the full article: https://lnkd.in/gZTEWdfb
