The rakish fellow you met last night with the suave dance moves, smoothly rehearsed lines, and your number listed as “Goddess #14” in his phone is fine for a flirt, but probably isn’t meet-the-parents material. Used as an adjective to describe a dashing ladies’ man or a streamlined ship, rakish comes from the fusing of rake + -ish. He is stylishly handsome and prone to saucy, fast behavior. Synonyms include charming, flashy, and immoral.

Looking rakish on a Saturday night
For a family dinner and drinks with friend on Saturday night I went for a tried and tested look of shirt and trousers, adapted for the 21st century. This lovely shirt is from The Kooples. I love the Chinese collar and the slim fit. The navy chinos are from All Saints and the navy suede loafers are from Asos Menswear.
