White is everywhere: Not the easiest to wear, but it can be incorporated. Lots of it in Ralph Lauren’s new denim line, Denim and Supply. We saw great white cotton twill pants with white gauze cowboy shirts, it’s an interesting way to use the trend and make it approachable.

White cowboy shirts from Vintrowear:

And of course the traditional denim shirt, can’t go wrong:

…[G]o get a toggle coat and a denim shirt — guys always look good in denim shirts. Keep it simple, you need minimal effort to look good.

As in, the origins of Rockmount's architecture.  Steve Weil, grandson of Rockmount founder Jack A. "Papa Jack" Weil, talks about vintage photographs of the original Rockmount building.  Designed by Fisher & Fisher, the building was originally built for L. Wolff Manufacturing Company, then served as Rockmount's warehouse.  Rockmount currently occupies the building as its headquarters offices, and their flagship store resides on the ground floor.
