The great Leonardo..

lefteris — Fri, 17 May 2013 13:55:56 +0000

We’re in the midst of serious Gatsby fever. Baz Luhrmann’s reinterpretation of F. Scott Fitzerald’s novel on the American dream just hit the silver screen, and talk of everything from the music to the glitz is all around. But, it’s the costumes that have us most excited. We have been waiting for so long for Leonardo di Caprio and his vintage 20′s-inspired allure! The style icon and directors’ favorite face along with his flawless style (by the way costume designer was the great Catherine Martin) leads the way for sartorial appearances and a new approach for men in style!

It’s Spring already! The pants are colourful and shortened. If you enjoy a pair of statement shoes, we are here to give to you ideas and inspiration. It’s not only the Italian signature item (search: Gucci!), but our favourite also. Everybody loves loafers and it’s reasonable. Not only they are this season’s hint, but takes our appereance to a new level. Both casual and formal outfits can match perfectly. Loafers always give a sense of sophistication and a clean-cut, luxurious and classy image. By the way don’t forget they are age unlimited. Take a look, because loafers really matter!

The Bowie chapter

lefteris — Tue, 19 Mar 2013 16:42:25 +0000

He could be the first name on this list! Mr. David Bowie is THE epitome of style… A chameleon could have lived 10 lives of style into his career all these years. The clothes are a semiotic part of himself, helping him to identify his persona and always he considers them as a part of his life, art and culture. Time magazine named David Bowie as one of the ‘All-Time 100 Fashion Icons’, a list of the 100 most influential fashion icons since the first issue of Time in 1923. This is not a surprise, is it? He always wore the clothes, they never wore them. With a new exhibition at V&A opens and a new, great single already out, Bowie is on again…and we are glad! We can learn from his approach not to afraid to try something new in our appearance and to be heroes for a day (at least)!

Justin in ‘suit and tie’

lefteris — Fri, 15 Feb 2013 13:23:24 +0000

Justin Timberlake is back to the music industry, but he remains in fashion. The 32 years old American singer-songwriter, actor and entrepreneur knows well how to dress up (and down!). His style is individual yet classic. His effect in the upcoming fashion trends is huge and that’s why he is never missed out from any best dressed list (with Tom Ford on his side can you blame him?). Now, he has his new video just launched and many things keep on coming.”The right scent can make you feel a little more stylish,” he says. “But it should never eclipse who you are. It should complement who you are.” Well said J!

Men in Black…leather

lefteris — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 09:08:23 +0000

The winter is here for good, but we are not scared at all… as we have some leather to protect us! Not only the leather jackets are hot-right-now but last years these jackets were the basic garments in our closet (who said we need only a black tuxedo??). It’s warm, easy, rebel, rock and trendy. More and more, men appear in a leather jacket to refresh their outfit. It’s the perfect item to make us look rough! Biker and motorcycle jackets are not for fast and furious men, only!
