14 Sep 2011

Navy, midnight blue, violet purple, charcoal grey, black and white. The colour palette is dipped with all our favorite colours, all highly wearable. Designer Yigal Azrouël wants this collection to be causal and almost effortless. Think leather waistcoat over white shirt and sweatpants: Is this gent more like a cool dressy game player?

Inspired: New Sports Etiquette

新派運動禮儀。


T by Alexander Wang is always
The top priority in my everyday wardrobe.

Layer the Classic Tank and play it up with
personalized accessories,

I am ready to go to WORK at day and
straight to NIGHT-OUT.

I even wear my French Terry Hoodie
at yoga session.

I LOVE MY CLOTHES AND I WEAR IT, LIVE IT MY WAY.

Featured in the new issue of Wonderland
Alexander Skarsgard dressed up with the T collection,
Is the ideal Wang Man we've been longing to see.

New York Spring 2012 Scrapbook: Antonio Azzuolo

Antonio Azzuolo Spring 2012 Preview
9 Sep 2011

     In his 8th season of menswear line a.a., designer Antonio Azzuolo, the finalist of this year's CFDA/ Vogue Fashion Fund, beautifully executed a showcase of how real men dress today: "A duality between the very tailored, sartorial look and the street." To complete the dressed-up yet rebellious look, models are styled with subtly messy out-of-bed hair, looking handsome in the morning sunlight, no?











Video: The Drums

Money, a great new track from The Drums' new album Portamento. Such a great escape listening to this on Monday morning.

Fall keyword you need to know: SNOOD



I started to furnish my fall wardrobe in late August, with soft cashmere cardigans, long sleeve cotton tees and silk shirts. I know it's all too early to try on the clothes in hot weather like this now in Hong Kong, but…let's jut call it my plan, my STRATEGY to BEAT the cool cool weather, and it's coming sooner or later anyway.


Today, I am looking at the Topman accessories collection and I have decided, yes, I would definitely get these two cozy snoods for myself. 


Top: Blue cotton pattern popper snood
Bottom: Red cotton burgundy gauze snood

What to listen this Sunday morning?

A soft, dreamy track "Echoes" from the new album "Within and Without" by Washed Out.


The comeback of The Rapture! "It Takes Time To Be A Man", you gotta love this sophisticated piece from their new album "In The Grace of Your Love". Sure they've got matured a lot.


Little Dragon's latest release "Ritual Union" is an extraordinary fun and pleasurable listening experience. Dare to call it the best music this summer.

Monday's best dressed

Kevin is the best dressed gent of the day. Love his clean and half causal style, yet there's something sophisticated about him.
