That Time Of The Year To Stalk...

Ok no I am not literally going to stalk people but yes Mens Fashion Week is comming to Milan again, and to be honest me and my friends can't wait to find some talent... in the fashion front of course, *cough* My masters in Marangoni has now sadly finished but something new and exciting has come around for me. I am now going to work for the Tom Ford showroom for 2 months! It's gonna be hard work but hopefully I will do well, tomorrow all the merchandise is arriving so unpacking is on the cards! Anyway here is a small tribute to menswear fashion and Ford with an American Twist...

In A Day Dream

Right now I am really in to menswear. I recently had an interview at Ermenegildo Zegna (the best suit maker in the world for men) for a place as a showroom assistant, which has sparked my interest in mens fashion once again! Im keeping my fingers crossed and hope I will have good news at the end of the week... I found these images by Glass Magazine titled 'Hope is a waking dream' Featuring clothes from the likes of Gucci, Alexander McQueen, Louis Vuitton and Lanvin. Very plain and relaxed in it's styling and photography. The clothes are elegantly styled with a cool laid back feel. The melancholy looks of the models with their distant gazes and lack of colour the mood is very much a day dream. Lets hope I do not need to day dream also for much longer!

Man Day

One of many things that makes me happy in life is when a guy walks past looking really amazing in his clothes - This is a rarity. I can't understand why so many men do not bother in looking good and have this issue about being 'manly' honestly they need to get over it as women appreciate good clothes so I don't know why still today they haven't put two and two together! Anyway done with my ranting here are my tips for a summer outfit for men... The best pants in my opinion are chinos they look amazing on nearly everybody and can match many tops. I think blue and camel are an amazing combination of colours for this season. By adding espadrilles gives the look a summery edge. I found this amazing 'teeth' necklace that I had to add in it's really strange and awesome at the same time. Men of the world please make the effort you look so good when you do!

Home.

Finally term has ended and I can go home back to Cambridge after 4 months of not returning! I am extremely excited to see everyone again but I cant help but remember the English weather.... Milan is so bright and sunny with middle 20s temperature. I will be going back to clouds, rain and coldness... So the big wooly jumpers that have been shoved at the back of my wardrobe need to be found and packed. Sigh. I guess you can't have everything!
