{gift guide} Father's Day + A Stylish Dad Contest!

Father's Day is fast approaching (June 17th in the US) and Mr Porter (net-a-porter for men) has a handy dandy Gift Guide to help you pick out a present for your dad! They have guides for five types of Dads: The Sunseeker, The Workaholic, The Globetrotter, The Hipster, and The Traditionalist! Each guide showcases the best in global style from some of the biggest names in international menswear.  I know most of the stuff in there is expensive, but you can also use it as inspiration and find cheaper versions!  What do you usually get your dad?

Mr Porter is also having a contest where your dad can win a $500 Gift Card to shop the store! They are asking fans to submit vintage photos of their dad and the most stylish dad will be chosen for a $500 MR PORTER Gift Card.  To enter, send your vintage photo of your stylish dad to fathersday@mrporter.com. Their editors will announce the winner on Father’s Day and their favorites will be featured on the MR PORTER Facebook and Tumblr page.
My picks (the camera bag would be perfect for my dad if it was for a bigger camera...he LOVES photography). They are also having their sale, up to 50% off full prices! The perfect time to find your Dad a gift!

    I would get my Dad a tie, but I think that's what my Mom got him, ha!

    I think I'm just going with a card, unless my siblings want to go in on something.

    For the first time in 6 years I will actually be in the same country as my dad this July so I'm giving him a belated gift - an actual face-to-face dinner with me!
