The French Open often referred to as Roland Garros, is in full swing this week and therefore sets the perfect tone for my pick of the day, this time for the gents out there. The brand Du Jour must be Lacoste of course! given the long history and well established partnership the brand holds to this day with the Grand Slam tournaments and especially with the French Open, if feels only natural to pay a little tribute to this special occasion.
Introducing the Lacoste Panama Men’s chronograph watch: This beauty features a flawless tan leather strap with white stitch detail, which I’m loving right now since tan leather was one the hottest trends last year and still is. I became completely obsessed with this trend and color; and from personal experience, I have to say a tan leather saddle handbag is a must for every woman, for what I would like to think the same principle apply to this watch.
Lacoste 'Panama' Watch
Why? You ask? Simply put tan leather is such a classic, elegant material, it has a buttery feel and like all good old leather it will develop a unique character and appearance the more it gets worn. Add that to the bold style in structured steel, tailored with a logo-etched bezel and chronograph subdials and as a result you get the final touch for an on and off -court fashion statement! Très chic!
