R.I.P Nippy.
The BEST singer of ALL time. An icon of mine, not only for her voice but for her strong faith in God. R.I.P Whitney.

YSL Menswear AW12
So menswear shows are underway and Stefano Pilati has definitely struck a nerve with me - a positive one nevertheless. The leather on leather, wool and belt detailing on the jackets were perfection. Similarly to the womenswear SS12 collection, Stefano chose to keep the phenomenal gold plate on the shoe which is such an eye catching feature.
I loved the hair and make too. However, I must say I...

V Magazine - Anais !
Only V Magazine could create something so “Ghetto Fabulous” like this. Anais Mali leads this editorial featuring Rob Evans and Travone Hill. The first picture featuring Jeremy Scott clothes and a bleached fiery hair-style is amazing - the stylist’s imagination was so focused with this shot as everything compliments each other.
I have to be honest, the Kanye West clothes...

Luxury Apple Mac Accessories
I have just bought a MacBook Pro which set me back almost £1000; yet I still find the time to surf on sites like Mr Porter and My Wardrobe to find a more desirable sleeve or Mac case. Some are completely out of my price range whilst some are way below it. For instance, the Marc by Marc Jacobs 13” jungle case.
I wanted a Yves Saint Laurent one (naturally) which would of had to be on sale...

Overall, it was a nice...

OB - Sample Sale
Ozwald Boateng sample sale tomorrow. Should be GOOD! I really shouldn’t be spending my money but it’s not like I can enter a Boateng store and come out with a shopping bag on a normal day - so I intend to buy something from the fashion icon himself.

Some real stand out pieces from Jasper Garvida whilst Veronica Moncho Labo gave us vibrant prints with a Matthew Williamson and Versace feel. As for Corrie Nelson, such a good designer with a couture feel to her garments.

Been a while...
With university deadlines approaching fast, I haven’t had the time to write a single blog post lately. I know, shake your head as if you’ve heard it before - but I haven’t given myself an easy dissertation topic. I am investigating the strategies UK luxury brands use to uphold their heritage in China, in spite of internationalisation. Interesting, but it’s going to take a...

Warm winters with MR PORTER
The drastic change in London’s weather has caused major concern for all of us. Although we’d still like to believe that the media’s coined “Indian Summer” is still apparent, it has gone!
So what do we wear? A thick knitwear jumper with no jacket, risking the chances of getting too flustered on the London’s underground trains – or do we pick a statement jacket, preferably with some wool lining...

Dispair London
DISPAIR London, a new innovative footwear brand with a heritage which tracks back to Spitafields, may just be the next favourite choice of selection for the more relaxed yet stylish male consumer.
I was kindly gifted a pair of DISPAIR London shoes (pictured below) - a brown waxed and suede loafer shoe combined with a sporty EVA outsole. I was a little apprehensive about the sole but I must say,...

80's / 90's Flow?
So, it’s my friends birthday bash coming up and he’s gone for an 80’s or 90’s inspired theme. Now, i’m not really one for fancy dress events, but I do love to make others laugh and mostly myself; and due to my continious Will Smith comparisons (looks wise), i’m thinking this could be a really funny night. But what do I go for, Fresh Prince of Bel Air or Save by...

What's In My Wardrobe - New Additions
As you guys send me messages asking what I have inside my wardrobe, I’ve taken a few snaps of some new additions.
I’m currently crazy about coloured chinos - the perfect way to add a little substance to a winter outfit. Denim has also caught my eye, but due to my expensive taste, the angel hovering above me has told me to be wise and put my money towards other things. Although, I...
