Ryan Gosling is one of the few young movie stars whose style is as interesting as his career choices.
If ever there were a walking endorsement of good tailoring, Ryan Gosling is it. He paid a lot of attention to the details: pocket square and cool ties for elegant occasion, belts, scarves and a good pair of sunglasses for the free time.
Gosling has shown himself not to be tied to anything but simple sartorialism on more than one occasion in the lookbook. Whether for a première or a night out he once again keeps accessories to a minimum, ensures the fit is spot on and keeps it all very relaxed by using the suit as the focal point.
No matter how big or small, dots are really conquering the summer men’s wardrobe.
Polka dots are good to add that chic twist to your look.
And Steve & Co. suggests a lot of polka dots printed accessories.

If you’re attending a wedding in the next months here are five style lessons we learnt from what little we could see of the nuptials of Jamie Hince and Kate Moss last july 2011.
1. Light-coloured suiting (a big trend at the recent spring/summer 2012 menswear shows in Milan and Paris) totally works with light-colored accessories like bow-tie, ties, pocket square.
2. A double-breasted suit and pocket square can be casual enough for a pub lunch the day after the big day – so long as they’re worn with a crew-neck T-shirt, modern beard and just the right degree of rumple. (See Jude Law.)
3. Do you have a too formal suit? Give it a modern twist with a studded bow tie, so punk chic.
Steve & Co. shares some tips about what to wear from casual Friday to dinner passing through the boardroom ready being always relevant.
Wear your favorite shirt with brass collar stays: they go under the collar in the appropriate pockets to support it, for a very refined and elegant effect.
