Dressing Dan Humphrey

Dan Humphrey has a ‘Downtown’ look – think Vintage scarves.

This former loner from Brooklyn is kind of a geek, but his style screams cool. Humphrey is into skinny jeans and khakis, striped skinny cardigans and his all-time fave, the military jacket he wears about town. He wears a lot of earth tones like browns, greys and greens, either to match Serena van der Woodsen’s wardrobe palette, or possibly to show that he’s more down-to-earth than the other guys on the show. Like Jenny, Dan doesn’t have the luxury of shopping on Fifth Avenue, but unlike his lil’ sis, he doesn’t care about wearing designer duds and prefers to kick it in vintage tees and dress shirts that don’t cost him an arm and a leg.

We discovered this picture (left) of Penn Badgley’s ‘London look’. His taste is my personal favourite. When he does smart he still looks effortlessly suave without being stuffy or OTT. The result here is simple, understated elegance for the chice of suit colour in grey against white shirt and pocket square. The thick striped tie adds a quirky edge -Overall this look is very on-trend and leaning towards Mark Ronsonesque. To achieve this cool look from TML opt for a 2-piece 2-button suit, starting at £620.

Keep the shirt simple and go for a plain white linen from Thomas Pink.

Accessorise with a white pocket square (think Don Draper), Regimental stripe tie by Hackett and a black IGLOO casual leather belt from Ted Baker. Dual functional – as a new party trick, the belt buckle double ups as a bottle opener!

For footwear, we recommend the Black Calf leather Cap Toe Oxford Shoe by Fratelli Rossetti.
