Men fashion trends for winter 2008-2009

As you know we have always talked about women’s fashion but this post is something different – it’s about men, men trends, to be precise.

Men’s fashion is not so diverse as the ladies’ one but some trends should be taken into account to look fresh, chic and sophisticated. So, there they are: a few this season’s top fashion trends.

Clean lines and shapes are very significant. Choose a crisp polo shirt to match some nicely pressed khakis.

Classy cardigan is another good decision. All men should definitely own at least one basic cardigan as you can wear it all year round and it’s good for layering.

They are sharp and extremely nice-looking.

Forget about browns and greys, they were in fashion in autumn. Now look for something that is much brighter: dark purple, red or indigo blue. Find a perfect shirt of these tints and pair it with black pants, you’ll look both classy and modern.

If you like pinstripes, the fashion of this season is just for you. Select a pair of pinstripes pants with a pinstriped dress shirt to create a classy and taller image.

This season retro styles are extremely popular. If you like that, buy a couple of items coming in great colors and patterns, with funky lapels and elbow patches. You’ll look irresistible.

Khaki pants are still very popular but if you got tired of them, try out some twill flat front pants. These look magnificent and are great for any occasion, from work to dinner.

Necktie is an item that will always be in vogue, though sometimes it may be worn less often. This winter ties have made a great comeback and are used to accessorize almost any style.

Jeans became fashionable once and since that day their popularity is constantly growing. This year’s styles are more form fitting and straight cut. Dark blue is the best.

Pairing your jeans with a dress shirt (and a blazer too) will make you look slightly eccentric yet adorable.

For casual wear choose a funky rock ‘n roll t-shirt.

Select a shirt that fits well and looks good.

Number of accessories should be minimal, just a watch and a pair of good cufflinks will do.

That is all. Add a few pieces to your wardrobe this winter to look modern and trendy. Good luck!

Go Crazy

Ohhhh I did something totally insane and spent money on a pair of boots that look like this:

Yes. They will be here tomorrow. Wonderful Guess "Maeve" boots. Kind of gothic but I can't wait to wear it with my chiffon dress with tights and leg warmers, a black blazer, and some crazy coloured scarf.

So now for some outfits that I would gladly wear. Because we all have Lacroix, Moschino and Schouler lying around in our closets.

SO EXCITED. SO IN LOVE.

But not nearly as excited or as in love with the fact that Barack Obama is now our President!!

Pretty Passport Holder

When I was walking pass the travel accessories section at Saks last month, I scoffed at the idea. Why would I need a pretty passport holder when I only use it once every few months, and when I do, only very briefly when I go through customs. Most of the time, it is kept inside my bag anyway.

A day or so later, I learnt the error of my ways. 12 hours before my international flight, I realized that my passport was not where it should be. I was completely frazzled and lost. I immediately started ransacking my apartment looking for it and even called HG internationally for moral support in my panicked state (it was the middle of the night for her too!). I kept looking while she went online and checked out what one does in a situation like this (it was a saturday night so govt departments are not even opened the next day). Half an hour later, I finally found it neatly tucked away in a inconspicuous looking white envelope. I'd used my passport 6 months ago for something else and had forgotten to put it back in the pencil case looking travel bag where I put all my travel stuff in. Phew! Crisis avoided.
The next day on my ride to the airport, I retold my story to my friend and she said that this was why I should get a pretty passport holder, then I'd never have to put my passport in a white envelope. Plus, I should get an eye catching one, so I'll see it immediately. She had a point. Now i'm a convert to pretty passport holder. The question of course, is which one. I'm considering this bright red one from Saks. It is simple, elegant and vibrant. Plus, the size is just right, with little compartments for travel award cards etc (actually it might even be a great present for mom!).

How does everyone else keep their passport?

The DVF Keva Dress

I always knew that Ms. von Furstenburg was a genius with the wrap dress, but I thought that my one printed blue DvF classic wrap dress would be enough to quench my thirst for DvF. Unfortunately, she has proven me wrong with the Keva dress.
I first caught a glimpse of it online window shopping on Shopbop. It had only just gone on sale and I thought, aww what a pretty dress. Then the other day, I saw it at a department store and I must say, it looks even better in person! Naturally I simply HAD to try it on, even though the only one on the rack was about 2 sizes too big. And it felt absolutely beautiful. It is made out of this wonderfully flowy chiffon material that moves with you as you swirl. Most of the time with these kind of dresses, the chest area would be too big for me. But from the looks of it, with the right size, it promises to fit well on me (or so I imagine). And best thing of all? With this print, this is the perfect dress for Spring. The color is dark enough that you can pair it with tights for colder weathers. But the material and design is just light enough that it will still be great for summer! The print is also not so recognizable that it will be over next season. How awesome is this dress?

Unfortunately for me, I analyze too long and now they are sold out on Shopbop (it was half price!). I've already checked the DvF website, Saks and Neiman Marcus. But alas, it looks like this dress is lost to me. I definitely need to keep my eye out for something similar in the next collection!

Oh and Happy 2009 everyone!

Dress Me

What inspires your sense of style? For me, right now it's things that drape well, a summery sort of flow, romantic things and I get inspired by photos that appear drenched in sunlight. I love photo spreads, I could spend hours upon hours staring at them and soaking in their beautiful glossy feel. This is just a hint of what has been inspiring me lately, what about you?










Kind of makes you want summer...

There's something about the girl

There's something about the girls at Garance Dore. Maybe it's their fresh faces, their glowing skin, their always inspiring looks, or their gazing eyes. I love street-style blogs, because we're not looking at people who dress to the nines everyday in clothes that cost more than they should. We're simply looking at people with their own taste, their own style, just living their lives, who happened to be caught on camera and shown to the world.
