These are my favourite loves from AKEDO and Mrp . For this summer, I have been researching the Japanese culture on their minimalist trend. I have always been a fan of the minimalist trend but never been able to pull it off as I adore trends and could not let any pass me. As I grow and mature in fashion and with the help of my blog, I have been educating myself and trying to find my unique sense of style within the trend. I wish to change my entire wardrobe at once but facing facts that would never happen. Lately with my purchases, I have been trying to stick to my neutrals with more focus on black, white and grey. The above mood-board are items that I will be purchasing as my 1st break-through to the trend and build up from them. I will of-course be keeping you all in tabs as I transition myself and style into a mature, career obsessed man.

www.dailymail.co.uk ( Movie: HER ) While I was browsing through a back issue of an international mens fashion magazine, I fell in love instantly, and no, not with the male models that graced the pages. As hot as they were, the only thing that grabbed my attention were the high waist trousers that the male models were wearing. Fashion houses Lanvin and Rick Owens sent their male models down the runway in grey, brown and black high waisted trousers during the fall 2012 shows. They teamed their pants with an oversized grey sweater that would be perfect for fall/winter. For spring/summer one could easily pair the pants with a white fitted t-shirt or a crisp white shirt with the sleeves rolled up and a pair of brogues. Musician and blogger, Lanre Aluko, blogged two years ago on his blog “The essence of style” about the moment he fell in love with high waisted trousers and made his own pair from pants that he had bought from international retailer River Island. The high waisted trouse...

Her inspiration and reason as to why a woman would rather do male swimwear than female, she explains: “When Simon, my husband and “the business brain behind the brand”, and I moved to Cape Town two years ago, we noticed that most men are wearing baggy, unflattering board shorts. As a result, Garwood & Grace came about because I wanted to introduce a tailored, European sensibility to South Africa’s beaches with swim shorts that will be equally at home at a beach bar or restaurant.” Alston partnernership with Calum Harvey, a fellow graduate of the Royal college of Art and his aesthetic on design and relying on his experience as a menswear designer for the likes of Christopher Raeburn, Burberry and Paul Smith gives their range of tailored, quality swim shorts a distinct St. Tropez juststepped-off-my-yacht appeal, which is not surprising given founding partner Tiphaine Alston’s credentials: a BA Hons from the UK’s Ravensbourne College, a Masters at the Royal College of Art in L...
