As June approaches, I'm faced with a perpetual problem...the fathers in my life have EVERYTHING they need. Since I've already breezed through the basics, my favorite gifts to give add a little pizazz to my special guy's (guys') life.
Haspel Seersucker Blazer--Head to toe seersucker with a bowtie can be hard to pull off but a blazer pairs with dark jeans and a punchy belt, dark khakis or brightly colored chinos. Yes, there are imitators, but Haspel is the originator. Always classic. Always summery. Available at finer department stores.
Gingham Shirt in a punchy color. I love this one from Land's End Orig. $50 Now on SALE for $35
Eat the meat! Olympic Provisions Salami of the Month Club $135
