Paint

This campaign from Paul Smith really makes me want to jump up and start painting. I always wanted to paint, and I've tried but it never comes out the way I want. Far from it actually. I asked someone what I should do to improve and the reply was something very obvious - paint. He meant practice painting over and over again until you can make it right. Now all I have to find some free time and give that a try.

Prada

Browsing through my archive issues of Another Man, my eyes landed on this campaign from Prada. I remember when I first got a glimpse of the shirts in this and I knew I had to have it. Click on the image to enlarge and see how beautiful that shirt really is.

Elegance

This look isn't a bit fashion forward, new or experimental but there won't be anyone that wouldn't want to look like this at least one stage of their lives. And the word to describe something like that is elegance.

Replacements

After seeing this picture I set off on my online search for a replacement. I found these two but I still don't think it's as desirable as the one from Lacoste Red.

From Antonio Azzuolo's SS 09 collection.
Jil Sander's Bi-colour Blazer.

a.a Autumn Winter 09

Feast your eyes on the Antonio Azzuolo's Autumn Winter collection, which surely I'm in love with and you will be too soon.

I have seen countless images of a belt being worn on top of a suit jacket or a blazer or a coat, but I have to admit I haven't seen one worn on top of a waistcoat. And well I rather like it.

Just a touch of fur and the coat is so beautiful. I'd feel like an aviator if I was wearing this and I might even be tempted to risk my life by trying to fly a plane (that's if I can find one). 


Notice two shirt collars? A nice and simple detail and you can spot the cuffs for both the shirts too.


The designers use of fur throughout the collection really has me excited because although I do not own any fur pieces I really want to. Haha, I know some of you will disagree and PETA might even report this blog as abuse but hey, I like fur.

I'm In Love! Again!

In love with that photo and polo. I want that so badly. What a beautiful addition that would make to my wardrobe or anyones wardrobe for that matter. Especially here in the tropic where the sun never seems to stop shining.

Also I thought I would do what the dapper kid does and add the song I'm currently listening to. Haha, dapper kid hope you don't mind me copying your ideas. Oh and I listen to almost everything. If I'm listening to Sex Pistols one day the next day I might be listening to Jacques Brel. Haha, talk about contrasts.
