British weather is reliable. Reliable in the fact that you never know what to expect.
That’s why during the months when it’s supposed to be warm, it’s wise to take a jacket with you, something that’s lightweight, that will protect you from the elements but won’t make you sweat out the Thames.
Last week was the beginning of our London Series, using iconic landmarks around the capital as the backdrop for our Product of the Week shoots.
Set against the majestic Tower Bridge, we introduce to you The Carter Mac from London-based brand The Village Green. It’s the perfect summer garment – a beautifully-constructed and stylish jacket. What more could a Londoner want? (bar sun)
Since the mac is such a timeless piece we kept the styling minimal, allowing the jacket to steal the spotlight. We began with a plain seersucker button-down shirt.
The red patterned tie adds a pop of colour to the outfit. We threw in a burgundy vintage leather case and a pair of slim fitting denim jeans to help keep the outfit from looking too formal.

We rolled up the sleeves to keep the jacket on the casual side as well as to highlight and show off the stunning seersucker lining. Finally, we popped the collar and tied the waistband to complete this cool and casual look.
All of The Village Green’s designs are currently available online at TOPMAN.COM and in their flagship store on Oxford Circus. For those fellas looking for a great fitting casual jacket this summer that doesn’t come from a mass-produced high street brand, this piece would be right up your village so to speak!
Head over to Topman now to snap yours up.
As always,
Stay Stylish
