The Urban Gentlemen

Have you ever heard of 'Urban Gentlemen'? I have just discovered this style not long ago on the web while I was searching for new style for my photograph session with my friends and we love it!! Let's walk through together on what is 'Urban Gentlemen' and how does it look like.

It all started with this blog call 'The Urban Gent' where it provide fashion tips and guide for the men only. This style is originate from urban America and has been wide spread since then. Is kinda hard to track down when exactly this style has been founded and when is it become so well adapt but 'The Urban Gent' site was founded back in 2008.

The Urban Gent style is about individual trying to express themselves with different personal attitude by  developing their own personal sense of style (Urban Young Trendsetter) and less copying the designer's style. These urban young trendsetter is the attention grabber on the street, i mean, look at the way they style, can you spot one easily?

Needless to say, every single Gentlemen here has their own sense of style which portrays different personality and each of them does grab our attention. I do notice one thing which is the color combination but this is where you have to crack your head to make a perfect colour match or else it'll scare off the Ladies! 

A few note for you to refer if you would like to be an Urban Gent:

1. A modern day gentleman.
2. A certain wardrobe style.
3. A stylish well-mannerd man with swagger. He has knowledge of proper etiquette and grooming. 

p.s: Swagger is to move with confidence, sophistication and to be cool. Swagger is to conduct your self in a way that would automatically earn respect. 

Well, it looks easy at the beginning but sounds hard at the end. However, don't be afraid of trying, it might gives you unexpected result! 

till then, ciao~z! 


'The Urban Gentleman is the modern gentlemen. He is a man of style, class, and culture.'
