MUST WEAR for #ThisSummer

1. Wear Bermudas

Bermuda

2. Bracelets - We always love men with accessories

3. Turn-ups. We still love it.

4. Fresh scent. (In fact this is the first rule for whole year)

5. If you don't have your pedicure go with espadrilles instead of flip flops.

BONUS: 6. Try to keep the length of your swimwear as you see in the photo.

#ShoePorn for Men!

Shoe addiction may seem like just for women but this is not true. Even if it’s true that means women look at your shoes and criticize your taste. Either way you have to be careful and selective as a men when it comes to shoes.

Men shoes have an informal look for Spring 2014, but are yet very stylish. If you are a conservative guy in means of style try the ones with laces.  One of the hottest trends in men’s shoes for the season are the solid soles, decorated with metal elements or unexpected colours. But I – personally- don’t like metals in men’s shoes unless they are just for decoration. The most popular models of men’s designer shoes for the spring of 2014 are moccasins, loafers, slippers and chukkas. Smooth leather, suede and nubuck keeps their ranking in fashion. You will also find that reptile skin and reptile skin imitations are another popular choice of material for men’s shoes. Combinations of materials with different textures are also possible.

My DO’s

• Loafers (just for a business look)
• Sandals & flip flops with Bermudas
• Trainers (always)
• Chukkas

My DON’Ts

• Reptile Skin
• Too much metal elements
• Pointy-toed shoes
• Flip flops with boot cut jeans

Vibrant colours, like cobalt blue, emerald green and cherry are another popular trends in men’s shoes for this season. Of course, the traditional colours like black and brown are not excluded. You can also try floral prints for espadrilles too (Which I like a lot!)

Here is the editor’s pick (which is me in this case) for shoe shopping!

RIPPED JEANS: 5 REASONS YOU SHOULD TRY

Take on the latest denim trend set to go big this summer

Words By Chantelle Symester via TopManMagazine

1. DON'T GO OTT You needn't look like you've been dragged at 50mph down the road by your jeans nor should you opt for the 'shabby chic' - read hobo look (we promise you, it doesn't look good). The great thing about Topman's latest ripped jean's range is that there are just enough slits and rips to make it look cool rather than try hard or just plain wrong. 
   
2. 
   
   SMARTEN IT UP You needn't look like you've been dragged at 50mph down the road nor should you opt for the hobo look (it doesn't look 'shabby chic' btw). Adding some ripped jeans to a relatively smart outfit will work because you are balancing out each element. We like the idea of teaming yours with a nice fresh shirt and this drop shoulder coat.
   
   


3. STAY UP ON THE TRENDS The distressed look is making a comeback this season and these subtle knee slits on these spray on style jeans will make sure you are way ahead of the curve. (Plus it'll be extra ventilation when it gets a bit hotter).
   


4. DARK DENIM= SUBTLE Still too shy to try - work with a darker colour which will tone the look down.
   


5. ADD SOME DETAIL TO DRESSED DOWN ATTIRE When your simple everyday attire needs a bit of a life why not throw on some ripped spray ons? It's an easy, instant update and pretty much a no-brainer.
