Real Stars Are Rare


It's not often that a clothing brand pops up that you dig instantly. Well Real Stars Are Rare just happens to be Paul Weller's clothing brand and it's safe to say it's quality! Combining contemporary designs with a lovely colour pallet, Real Stars gives your look that edge that the majority of brands available today don't. Like most people I've always admired Paul's look and Real Stars captures his current clobber perfectly. From the Henley tees to the Parallel strides his current look is smart, contemporary and forward looking with one eye on the past. So without further a do let's take a look at two pieces in particular that we are really digging.


Henley

What a piece this is! Weller's been seen wearing 'Grandad' style tee's for a while now and they look great! Simple and stylish p

aired with jeans or trousers these tee's are sure to turn heads. Reminiscent of the tops that Stevie Marriott himself wore circa 66 the Real Stars Henley's are spot on. 100% cotton with a three button fastening and a slim fit silhouette the details are all there. The sleeves are slightly longer and finish just above the elbow too for that added modernist edge. I love the way the star logo is embroidered at the bottom of the placket, its saying if you pay attention to the details you can figure out just what brand this shirt is. The other colours on offer in the Henley are great, Chocolate, Dark Grey, Indigo and Slate Grey all of which are easily paired up with the right pair of strides, jeans and shoes. The fine gage of cotton which the Henley's are created with gives them the feeling that they could be a piece of knitwear too. The Real Stars Are Rare Henley Tee, a wardrobe essential, a timeless classic, a modernists essential. Get on it!

Button Down Oxford Shirt

Beautiful piece this, very Ivy League/60's Modernist. Made from Classic Oxford 100% Cotton with a lovely 3 finger collar with a roll to die for! With a subtle star logo on the chest this is sure to be a Real Stars staple in future collections. Fitting true to size the shirt sits lovely with the right pair of trousers. You can layer up with a piece of knitwear or even wear with a jacket and this shirt shines through looking spot on with anything you pair it with. Neat, sleek and classic are just three words I'd use to sum up this piece. So many brands have tried to conqueror the Oxford Shirt and so many have failed. Real Stars on the other hand have passed with flying colours! Available in a cool range of colours ready for your summer wardrobe, the Button Down Oxford Shirt is a Modernist classic done very well! Get yours now, trust me they're sweet!
