Folks, welcome to another Friday on The Style Guide, and another dispatch from the road as part of my many freelance writing pursuits. If you follow me on Instagram, you'll see that I cover much more than the best menswear, including fine luxury spirits, travel, watches and audio gear. And in the case of my latest freelance jaunt (past trips this year have included stints in Ireland and Germany!), worlds are colliding, so to speak.
I'm currently on the road in rollicking Nashville, which just so happens to be home to a heck of a lot more than just honky-tonks and rock venues (although it's a mecca for those, too). I'm here on behalf of The Joseph Hotel, a luxe, contemporary art-filled space known for its immaculate Four Walls craft cocktail bar.
The luxurious bar is the site of the action this weekend, as it's playing host to a momentous mixology pop-up. Four Walls is turning into a collaborative flagship for London's famed Lyaness for a limited time, and the cocktails on offer should be very opulent indeed.
As if it wasn't exciting enough to sample some of the world's most carefully crafted libations, each cocktail draws on a distinctly Nashville source of inspiration: The Frist Art Museum's current gallery exhibition, Lee Alexander McQueen & Ann Ray: Rendez-Vous.
Myself and my fellow travel and spirits journalists will taste our way through the Four Walls menu, experience the Frist Art Museum gallery in all its engaging creativity, and of course, take in other iconic Nashville destinations, like the Gibson Garage.
It's the Music City meeting mixology meeting modern art, and I positively can't wait for another round. I've traveled to the Music City in the past and also loved checking out menswear hot spots like denim and Americana atelier Imogene + Willie, always a personal favorite brand when it comes to the best men's jeans and more.
There's no shortage of exciting sights, sounds and sips in Nashville any way you slice it, especially at a seriously cool hotel like The Joseph. To keep up with all the action this weekend, head to my Instagram, and in the meantime, you can expect two stylish summer dispatches hitting the blog this weekend, including tomorrow's Style Pick of the Week. As always, thanks for reading, thanks for following along and THANK YOU for supporting my work! Cheers!
