I'm a Movement By Myself, But I'm a Force When We're Together

Boys Fashion
It took awhile to evolve but menswear has finally taken a step to the foreground in fashion. Blame metrosexuals. But everyone does like a well dressed boy, a cool guy with style. Such as the one above.
Here are some looks to love from Fall 2007 Menswear lines. Inform your boyfriends.

Paul Smith Alessandro Dell'Acqua

I love how tailored these looks are, and because they are classic formal looks, any guy can look good in them. Thin pants but not skinny jeans, worn low but not falling off. It can also be made a bit more casual with a decent sneaker, such as in Lanvin, & Alessandro Dell' Acqua. My suggestion: converse. All black converse, or black and white, such as these:

I love the masculine clean cut look, so I never thought I'd be into the whole 'man purse' thing. After all how much do they really need to carry? Wallet? Cell phone? But the two worked hand in hand to create some of my favourite outfits in the Dolce & Gabbana line:


Men are also rockin wide leg trousers on the runway ( Yves Saint Laurent):
Things to know about men's fashion:
- the model's are hot! Though some may be thinner than you are.
- the looks are similar
- street wear does not exist
- you may be appaled by the creations from your favourite designers for their men's lines
- just because it is a male designer doesn't mean their collection will be good

DO wear fake fur around the collar
DON'T don full fur coat a la Andre Leon Tally. Especially one with short sleeves, pants and shoes of the same colour, and buggy sunglasses.



DO experiment with colours, prints and shapes
DON'T wear clashing colours, prints and shapes all the same time



DO layer
DON'T look homeless

DO wear dark denim
DO wear light denim
DON'T try to pass off the jeans you accidentally added bleach too as wearable
DON'T wear tie dye!
(I'm sure guys don't anyways, but I thought I'd throw that in there as well)


Tip for Male Models: Please don't SNARL on the runway. It's not sexy. This isn't Zoolander. This one messed up this Michael Kors Picture for me becuase I couldn't get over his expression! I know you're stuck with a famous female counterpart stealing your shine, but c'mon!

And to end it off with my favourite men's collection! Etro!
It's nerdy done right! So cute!

The Future Is Now

The usually well tailored fashion conscious Mr. Fonzworth Bentley has put his unisex stamp on one of today's trends. It seems Mr. Bentley (cool name eh?) has been flipping through the latest magazines and seen something he likes: high waisted pants! When I saw this picture of him in what some people have deemed "mom" pants, I was so shocked! I mean sure we as women have certain menswear looks we stole, but I had no idea men were watching what we wore as well!

So do you think he pulls it off, or he should never attempt this look again?

I guess it is better than how the majority of guys wear their pants almost at their knees. I'm not sure if it works, but the entire outfit makes him look like a half finished candy cane! You know, how the red comes off?
