THE SUITCASE<br />

Sweater Weather<br />

Inching towards the end of the year, a popular staple piece to shield away the shivers is the sweater.<br />

With the option of dressing it up or taking it casual, the sweater is a versatile piece for the season.<br />

PUT A BUTTON ON IT<br />

Never overlook the details of a<br />

button. The buttons available at<br />

Bespoked are made from cow horn,<br />

shiny polished gems in a variety of<br />

shades to compliment your jacket<br />

sleeve. Then there is the mother<br />

of pearl and even shell buttons<br />

that come in hues ranging from<br />

murky brown to pearly white. The<br />

ostentatious can go for gold of silver<br />

plated buttons, many with a sort of<br />

emblem in the middle.<br />

A touch of personality apart from<br />

the lining can be seen on an extra<br />

lapel pin placed on one side of the<br />

lapel featuring gold buttons or pins<br />

with floral design to bring out the<br />

dandy in you. Ian’s fitted green jacket<br />

was embellished with a black and<br />

gold round button, proudly perched<br />

on his left lapel, adding a sort of<br />

signature touch to a classic garment.<br />
