Spring Looks to Make Your Own
Spring Looks to Make Your Own
Scrolling my feed on one of the popular social media platforms I use regularly (Instagram , Facebook), I came across an article from The Cut with Spring looks for men.
Of course I’m intrigued, so, I open the article not expecting to be inspired by any of the looks. Well, I was wrong, and now, I’m sharing the article with you. All the looks are quite dope (also read: nice) and fitting for…

An Unscripted Love at Unscripted Durham
It’s a new year…Happy New Year!!!
Before the dawn of the new year and ALL the resolutions to follow, we did a thing. That thing was a photoshoot, with Business Woman & Blogger, Kimberly Knight, of The Lux BlogNC. She asked if I wanted to participate in a photoshoot for a blog post she was writing about a staycation, right in my hometown of Durham, NC. In addition, a few bow ties from Natty…

The Fit: A Blog Series
Get in where you “fit” in!
The lapel pin has become a trend, maybe even more so a phenomenon in men’s fashion. And it’s only been in existence (in this form at least) over the last few years. Lapel pins started out as just that, a pin worn in the lapel notch on sports coats/blazers/suit jackets. Now, they’re ever evolving. You will see them worn on sweaters, cardigans (don’t know what it is, we’ll discuss them later in the series), outerwear jackets etc.

The lapel pin is an item of clothing in menswear that I thought wasn’t going to last long. Of course, it took me a while to jump on the lapel pin bandwagon, mostly out of fear that I didn’t know what I’d look like with one and I didn’t want to feel like a “trendy” person. But, when I finally did wear one, it hit me exactly why they are so popular and maybe even less trendy than I thought. Lapel pins have truly become a staple in menswear and I think it’s safe to say they’re here to stay. They are a subtle accessory that men can wear without feeling like their doing “too much” but can still incorporate a bit of their own personal style. And, most of all, lapel pins are small enough that they don’t overshadow an outfit and provide just enough of an edge to make an outfit that much more interesting. Now keep in mind that this was written before the Met Gala where some of entertainment’s best dressed donned them accompanied by sharp and well tailored tuxes (slideshow above). But is that celebrity endorsement validation or what? I thought it to be validation enough to make a Facebook post about it. Anyway, here are a few ways to wear your lapel pin:
Use an accent color in your jacket or tie and match with the lapel pin (Lapel Pin and Necktie by Natty Neckware)
Same look without necktie (Lapel pin by Natty Neckware)
Bigger the lapel the bigger more bold the lapel pin can be (Lapel Pin by Natty Neckware)
Add a lapel pin to a sweater instantly creates a more in-depth look (Lapel Pin by Natty Neckware)
Same look different sweater, same lapel pin (Lapel Pin by Natty Neckware)
Lapel Pin easily worn on a cardigan. Use accents colors from cardigan or a contrasting color (Lapel Pin by Natty Neckware)
Adds depth and dimension, personal style (Lapel Pin by Natty Neckware)

Adds depth and dimension and coordinates with scarf (Lapel Pin by Natty Neckware)
Don’t be afraid to create you own unique way of wearing them and as you discover what works for you let us know how it goes. We’d love to see how y’all are rocking them!
Check out some lapel pins by Natty Neckware.
Until next time…stay Natty!

It’s been a couple of weeks since I posted on the blog…did you notice? Okay, don’t answer that but either way, I’m sorry but not so sorry! It has been quite a busy and productive few weeks for me and my brand, Natty Neckware. There were A LOT of meetings and deadlines that I had to meet. Quite a few people that I needed to speak with and I’m glad to say that all went rather well. However there will be more updates about those things to come later. What I do want to detail is one of the collaborations we that were about to sprout (pun intended). I am pleased to announce that Natty Neckware is now a collective member of Sprout Patterns!
Sprout Patterns is a new service that combines curated patterns from independent patternmakers with Spoonflower designs to create custom cut and sew projects. What makes Sprout unique is not only the vast availability of designs and customizable patterns, but also the ease at which you get the fabric, print and pattern in one project. No more tracing and cutting multiple times. This is more environmentally friendly and it makes the process of sewing garments easier and more efficient. Sprout looks to combine the designer and maker worlds combating the ever so popular trends of fast fashion. I would say they’re on to something and I’m proud that myself and Natty Neckware can be apart of it.
We officially launched with Sprout at the end of April and it has been a breathe of fresh air because the initial phase is complete which has simultaneously brought a boost of energy. This collaboration with Sprout was a perfect fit! One of my goals for 2016, was to move Natty Neckware in a direction more focused on design. How I was going to do this I didn’t fully know but I was open to any viable opportunities that presented themselves. So, not only does this give us more exposure in the design world, internationally might I add (check the site), but it will also give us (read: me) forward progression toward accomplishing one of my brands goals in 2016.
Until next time…stay Natty!

P.S.A: H&M Recycles
So, this week I’m taking a step back from my regular posts and sending some good vibes toward something I care about pretty deeply, the environment. If you didn’t know Earth Day is on April 22nd and it’s important because well, this is our home until we pass on. Then it’s our kids and then their kids home, so we should want to leave…
