Orelar Brown put themselves on the map when they recreated one of the most iconic looks ever worn by James Bond, or any action star for that matter. When they dropped their version of the blue onesie from Dr. No, they became one of THE go-to destinations for men who wanted to embody the secret agent. They even have their own 007 collection. That wasn’t the end of it, though; they also became a go-to place for resort wear and the place to grab your swim trunks and poolside fits. That is a good problem to have, but they are breaking out of that problem now with a collection of pieces perfectly tailored for that 007 getaway to the ski resort. Orlebar Brown Mountain Resort Capsule is a selection of pieces all over the site that are perfect for your mountain getaway.

Everything from Apres ski to the hot tub

The Resort Collection is everything you need, from shopping in town to hitting the lodge after a great run. If you want to shop at the local spots, warm up and stand out with the relaxed fit Crochet Cotton Jumper from the FW24 Collection. Once you have finished your run on the slopes, warm up with the Wallace Quilted Knitted Sleeve jacket (which looks remarkably similar to the jacket worn by Daniel Craig at the mountain retreat in Spectre; they can’t get away from the connection now). And when it is time for dinner, no self-respecting Bond would be seen without a good tailored jacket, so OB offers the Tailored Fit Pique Merino Blazer. There is something for every occasion except skiing, so hit the Rockies or the Alps before the season ends.

Bonobos is making your spring break easy with the Jetsetter
Laying at the crossroads of comfort and elegance
Bonobos Jetsetter blazer

It was 50 degrees in New York City this week, and if you are like most of us, you started to get really excited about the fact that the world is about to get a little brighter now that the cold weather is moving out and the warmer weather is moving back in. Of course, New Yorkers know not to get their hopes up because it will snow in April anyway. But that doesn't stop us from planning our Spring Break getaways and shopping for the clothing we'll wear when we hit the cruise ship or Caribbean destination. Elevated dinner dates or evening events are among the hardest things to pack for on those trips. You want to dress up, but packing your suit or tuxedo typically ends in a wrinkled disaster. However, the Bonobos Jetsetter Blazer is one of the key points of the brand's 2025 spring and summer collection, and it may be the answer you need.
The crossroad between comfort and elevation

Built like a blazer but comfortable like a cardigan, this jacket is all over the site's New Arrivals and has a pretty steady place in Bonobos's collection this season. Available in nine colors and 63 different sizes and fit combinations, this is the jacket you should think about if you are starting to plan your warm-weather getaways. No matter how optimistic they may seem at the moment.

Timothy Chalamet continues the elevation of GAP at nominee dinner
GapStudio is the new look for America's retailer
Timothee Chalamet in Gap hero

Timothee Chalamet has had a rocket-fast acceleration in Hollywood over the last three-quarters of a decade. He broke out in 2017 with two well-received roles in Lady Bird and Call Me By Your Name. As if that wasn't a good enough introduction, he also landed his first nomination for Best Actor at the Academy Awards for the latter of the two. He has gone on to win and be nominated for so many awards in the last few years that it would take way too long and too many words to list here. Suffice it to say he is adding to his accolades, becoming the youngest to win Best Actor at the Screen Actors Guild Awards for his role as Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown. We are waiting to see if he lands an Academy Award for the role as he stepped out for the nominee dinner in a killer new look from GapStudio designed by GAP Creative Director Zac Posen.
Honoring his Dylan role
 

Chalamet took a new approach to the all-black look so many of us use as our go-to for evening events. He swapped out the black suit for a GapStudio Icon Jacket in Duchess Satin with matching pants and a black tee. He also added a gold chain to finish it off to become the talk of the night.

Here’s what to wear on a plane (with the help of travel experts)
Insights on what to avoid when picking a travel outfit
Person rolling luggage through the airport

From the days of flying in your Sunday best to wearing those velour tracksuits, plane attire has changed a lot over the years. Picking out what to wear these days could mean wearing your pajamas or choosing your favorite outfit to go out in right when you land.

But there are some definite don'ts when it comes to your wardrobe for the flight, no matter what. I’ll never forget when I decided to wear brand-new, tight jeans to the airport without thinking twice. Big mistake. Halfway through my flight, I was shifting in my seat and counting down the hours until I could peel them off.
