My MANy Bags Trendspotting #06




Trendspotting With 'The Sartorialist' In Paris

Another set of pictures showcasing what the chic men in Paris are wearing right now.

What has appealed to me so far:

1) Neck scarves - Seems men have become more 'vain' lately...scarves were usually the territory of women, but these days I see lots of guys wrapping one around their necks. It's a great look, makes the wearer look so refined and elegant. Or maybe boys scout?

2) Shorts and more shorts - What interests me with the guy with the rumpled linen pale blue jacket is he pairs it with cargo shorts. It does work!

3) Jackets and Blazers - The guy with the checkered suit, interesting choice. But I love his sandals the most. Pierre Hardy? And the guy with the interesting pleating detail on his navy jacket, reminds me of my Raf Simons blazer. (Which reminds me, I should check on my alteration progress:-) oh, I almost missed out...is he carrying a chanel handbag?

4) Vest and cardigan - Pair it up with shorts or even the chica Lanvin shoes! Love the metallic captoe:-) And pointy hi-cut boots seem to work as well.
