Most Stylish of the Week: You're never too young to be stylish

This week Ryan Kwanten made an appearance in London – who would want to be here this time of the year? – for an Omega event. I am so used to seeing him in tight jeans and checked shirts on True Blood that I forget he's pretty slick in real life. He dressed up in black trousers, white shirt and blazer. It was a very classy but also pretty cool evening look. I didn't love the choice of pocket square but I appreciate the effort. The intentionally scruffy grooming gave it a casual touch you need in the summer.
Benjamin Brady – Giselle Bündchen's and Tom Brady's son – is only 3 years old and already knows how to rock the hell out of a play-in-the-park look. This week he went for a classic combo of black shorts and a simple white tee and sneakers but he added his personal touch, channeling his dad's style, with a patchwork newsboy hat.
If you don't know Graham Phillips it's because you haven't been watching 'The Good Wife'. Tut-tut. Even in the show you can tell the guy knows how to carry himself. And it looks like he likes looking stylish out of set. This week he celebrated the premiere of this latest film 'Goats', with Vera Farmiga and David Duchovny, and wore a muted outfit with a dash of olive green. I love how everything fits just right, the choice of saddle shoes and his bowtie – you need to be a gutsy young man to just go for it at 19.

They're Fly: How to bring it in the summer

Let's face it, it's hard for a man to dress in the summer. Keeping cool is key but that, in therms of male clothing, reduces garment options down to two pieces: trousers and top. It's quite a challenge to look fashionable everyday when all you have to play with are two pieces.
Ryan Kwanten's, Ryan Gosling's and Ed Westwick's looks are great examples of how to do this. It's a good idea to add a pattern —stripes, plaid, maritime, even florals— that has to be subtle. Be careful with vests (or wife-beaters) because only men with guns (i.e. Gosling) can pull those off and not look like twats.
Trousers, if not shorts, should be light chinos, slightly looser than you'd wear them in the winter and rolled up (this keeps you cool in more than one way).
Sunglasses and belts are a lot more important in the summer because they say something about who you are. Ray-Ban's are always a safe bet but I personally recommend a classic pair or Persol's or Oliver Peoples'. They have to be a classic shape that goes well with everything but they must have an edge as well, not to be boring.
