The life of a modern day dandy is diverse.  It includes, the arts, music, theater, walks in the park, sports and a plethora of other hobbies and interests.  In the musical diversity of the dandy you may hear the metal sounds of Megadeath to the hard core Hip Hop of NWA (yes vintage musical references) and a mix of music in between. 
Today I want to share a piece of musical theater that shines oh so bright.  Not often can one remake the music of a predecessor and especially in Hip Hop. 

We at B. Dandy are privileged and  excited to announce the launch and creative partnership between Osrick Ingredients Cricket and The Finishing Touch (TFTStyle).  The B. Dandy brand is breaking this news to share with all of our readers and followers of the blog.  OIC is a cutting edge fashion house creating pieces synonymous with the game of Cricket.  For those that don’t know Cricket is a true gentleman’s game.  It is the second most popular sport the world over following Soccer by only a few hairs.  Its popularity has spawned a brand that is poised to create enormous buzz in the fashion industry.  It will be the uniform of its exclusive memebers (clients) as well as, the passer by looking to add a little bit of international inspiration to their look. Check out OIC at http://www.osingredientscricket.com

Now the announcement that brings all things together:  Mr TFTStyle aka B. Dandy aka B. Short, the lead consultant for The Finishing Touch http://www.tftstyle.com , has signed on as the lead stylist for OIC.  This partnership has been in development for the last 12 months and with the launch of the brand comes the excitement of sharing with all of you this news, there will be continued content on the OIC site from B. Short like the current Style Sessions: http://702614685585001103.weebly.com/style-session.html as well as, Ask The Stylist.  We will discuss how to wear the product, where and when to wear the product.

The OIC brand is chock full of dynamic pieces that flirt with casual prep and extend to a more formal sophistication like the tuxedo short.  Some of my favoirte pieces include the Khaki Trench, the Summer Scarf, and the Canvas Safari Bag.  Come join us on the lawn for a game of Cricket.

What matters the most to me are clothes that are consistent and accessible. I believe in clothes that last, that are not dated in a season. The people who wear my clothes don’t think of them as fashion.

As the month of May rolls right along I hear the words to the song that says “It’s Spring again…”.  And yes without a doubt Spring has arrived.  It has brought all of its wonders, joys and pains (pollen for us dandies in Atlanta), and also gives us room to breath new life into our often drab fall and winter attire.

Gents as you step out to work, or an evening date let the spring options of neck wear whimsically tie you up.  Some of my favorite options for this time of year include, silk knits, linen, madras and of course seersucker.  You can find them from high end to low, but regardless of what you pay, every dandy knows its all in how you wear it.  So step out, get some color, change the fabric and lighten up this Spring and Summer.  HAVE FUN!!!
