Parr, our very own EIC, shares his go-to style staples — which includes J.Crew, Louis Vuitton, Burberry, Belstaff, TAG Heuer, Cole Haan — adding “When traveling, I grab my Belstaff jacket and go with a Barbour bag tossed over my shoulder — it’s stocked with my iPad 2, a few Cuban cigars and Johnnie Walker Black flask.”
