My MANy Bags Trendspotting #102


Below: Are you a 'man in stripes' yet?




Below: Or maybe a 'man in stripes + pink'?


Below: Love this guy's subtle introduction of pink thru his tie and socks... so 'dandyish'...


Below: Men in bright coloured socks...works too!


Below: As does a 'man with clutch'...


Below: Robin Hood will be proud... modern 'men in tights'...


Men in Stripes, Men in Pink, Men In Tights...And More...

Sail away! One of the most noticeable trends this spring summer are these nautical inspired blue and white stripe t-shirts. The men love it, the women embrace it. Have you worn it?

And men should not be afraid of colour, especially PINKs and REDs. Used with the right amount, it adds a dash of debonair and colour accent to your outfit, making you attain a character of your own.

Who says men cannot carry clutch bags? This gentlemen above does not seem the least bit less than masculine. He pulls off his 'murse' with such flair. What about this cool Japanese guy who wear tights as if it's his second skin? Riccardo Tisci first propagate the tights under shorts look on his Givenchy Mens runway... now everyone starts following. Tights anyone?

(BTW, it's such a joy to blog in a shady porch, ceiling fan spinning, hearing the birds chirp and surrounded by greenery. Except maybe those disgusting screaming kids should be 'eradicated'!:-P Time to leave the 'sanctuary' and go for a walk and exploration...beach beckons!)

BV made reds look very nice, not so shocking or bloody anymore. As for tights, i would be caught dead wearing those. it's only for the tough guys who can fend off the stares. my parents would definitely kill me if they see me in those! lol.
