As I’ve said before, an opportunity to wear a pocket handkerchief should seldom be missed. And yet it’s not for that reason that this look catches my eye. It’s the perfection of it – it is balanced in every way.

His maturity is balanced perfectly though the youthful elements (the wrist jewellery and t-shirt are particularly noteworthy) . The pocket handkerchief is balanced against the sportscoat without actually blending in. But, most of all, the colour tones are perfectly balanced.

Achieve this level of smart, moneyed, yet casual dressing on your weekends and you’re hitting the perfect note.

Late one Oxford night Daniel P Dykes set about creating a fashion publication that would go someway to being an arbiter on fashion as it appeals to the emerging power generations: those who don't remember a world without the Internet and for whom work plays second fiddle to pleasure. And so Fashionising.com was born as a publication for those who were focussed not just on fashion's trends, but on society's too, and how those trends could all go to heighten the art of living. Hence, Daniel sees a future where, for those young at heart, both fashion and style are grounded in traditional quality, but with a youthful, sensualised edge. Daniel is Fashionising.com's Editor in Chief and Chairman.
