The Eclectic Grandpa Starter Pack

Have you found yourself dressing similar to the grandfather in the movie “The Parent Trap”? If you answered yes, you are now entering your Eclectic Grandpa era. Now, if you answered no, but you're intrigued, just know I got you. This is one trend that makes you look like you’ve mastered your style, even if you haven't. 

Just because it’s ‘grandpa style’ doesn’t mean it has to be boring. Within this trend, you can play with silhouettes, colors, mixing, and matching patterns. One person who has set the standard and has practically paved the way for this trend is Tyler The Creator. His school-boy style tailoring and old-fashioned silhouettes are demonstrated throughout his brand; Golf Le Fleur.

The line includes Plaid Sports Coats, oversized Knit Polos, along with Pleated Skirts and Trousers. From the looks of it, he’s got his bases covered. This is one trend that makes you look like you’ve mastered your style, even if you haven't

This trend isn’t one you have to break the bank to participate in, you can check out your local thrift store and get everything you need. Here are some things to keep your eye out for; Knit Vest and cardigans, pleated skirts, dress shorts and pants, dress ties, and penny loafers. To top it off, a paperboy hat. With new trends sometimes comes overconsumption, if you are planning to take part in grandpacore, take note of the elderly by purchasing pieces that’ll last. 

Finally here is your Eclectic Grandpa starter pack, a few looks, I’d even wear myself.
