A few weeks ago I was asked by a Korean menswear label called Vino to style myself wearing a mixture of my own clothing and some of their new collection for a few street style photographs.  I chose this blue check jacket and styled it with bright yellow, blue & green pop colors perfect for spring.    




My flatmate Oscar Lindqvist (check out his blog Le Roi De Noir HERE) was also asked to join.  This kid has a very black and impressive wardrobe and he styled this black check suit from Vino with some smart, luxury accessories.

men in skirts

Check out my article on 1883 Digital by 1883 Magazine about the prominence of skirts in menswear SS12 collections from around the world including shows by Commes des Garcon, Givenchy, J.W. Anderson, Rad by Rad Hourani, Rick Owens and Korean labels Resurrection and Irony Porn(o):


Modern European & Western male dress sense has long dictated that outside of Scottish weddings or Marc Jacob’s closet, skirts on a man are a total faux pas.  Taking a look back in history however, gives a glimpse of men from ancient Egypt to Biblical times to historical figures such as Alexander the Great and Christopher Columbus all depicted wearing skirts.  For the rest of the article, click HERE.

gift from proudrace

I received this perfect little package in the mail today thanks to Klarisse, a Manila based blogger for lovestylefree.com and the designers from Proudrace, a hot clothing brand also from Manila. Thanks so much guys!



Inside was this perfect little tote bag 'Handmade for you by Proudrace' which was lightly silkscreened on one side with designer names written in heavy metal type faces. Love the juxtaposition of the designers & the type & it's a nice subtlety how it's barely just readable.


Inside the tote was this AMAZING personalized & screen printed Chanel knockoff tee which I am so happy to receive. It will of course be featured in a 'chadchad of the day' in the near future.

Thanks again so much Klarisse & Proudrace!!!
