Maison Martin Margiela Mens Fall/Winter 08-09

I’ve never been a fan of Maison Martin Margiela, even though he’s a real creative designer. Red V’s accross leather jackets, pieces that look like they’re semi-finished… I’m just not so sure…
This collection does feature the good ol’ red V-jackets and it does have a barb-wired inspired shirt that just doesn’t look right — but [...]

Balenciaga Leather trench coat

One word: GORGEOUS. I can’t believe I missed it in my trench coat roundup earlier this season.
Dark brown leather trench coat. The collar and lapels lead into a double breasted front. Storm flaps sit on either side beneath the collar as well as on the shoulders. Vertical pockets sit on either side of the hips. [...]

Dior Men’s Lace-Up Shoes

The earthy tones in practically all the designs is perfect. These pieces are office dressy and casual at the same time. It’s a perfect collection for those who [...]

The sheer shirt under the semi-sheer and very lightweight cardigan is a great look for spring. Add to that the very cool shoes, and the scarves on practically every design, and it made for a [...]

Dolce and Gabana Spring/Summer 2008

Dolce and Gabana is another staple line that everyone knows about, and most people own. The new 2008 collection is another fine example of why Dolce and Gabana is so popular. From the colors to the cuts, this line has everything. Leather jackets and even well-fitting comfortable underwear were on the runway for this show. [...]
