Head Case

What with all the old styles making such a comeback it's no wonder that hats are too! A couple years ago I was permanently in a paperboy cap I bought from H&M, and then of course the 'Beanie' as we call it here in South Africa, is a staple in my wardrobe.
But I started to wonder about wearing Hats as part of more formal attire- keeping in mind once again that Cape Town is hardly suit culture as it is, although it really hasn't stopped anyone before.

Hats are certainly making their rounds as far as the runway is concerned, especially for Autumn and Winter months for obvious reasons. You'll find them trickling down to the shops soon enough if you're not already living in say, London or New York where it's already out of style a week after a release :)







BASEBALL CAPS

As far as peak caps/Baseball caps are concerned, I don't know if they fit in the statement-maker section but I'm all for them. I have a friend who is very fashionable and works in a store where she is often encouraged to wear a peak cap, and it is in fact possible to find a medium of fashionable and relaxed. I have a few baseball caps but they tend to be used more for Gym at the moment. Dolce and Gabanna show that you can in fact make something casual, look part of a hot look.



BEANIES
As I mentioned I've been doing this for years now. I still have the Abercrombie and Fitch Beanie I got as a birthday gift for my 19th. I just pull it back a little so that my forehead is open.






And here are a whole bunch of other examples I love. I think it's fantastic that we are able to bring old and new to a healthy medium. Men aren't as scared to try things as they used to be:

HEAR THIS


BON IVOR delivers a very haunting and personal album 'For Emma, forever ago'. I've been listening to it non-stop all weekend and when you read the lyrics to 'Re: Stacks' it brings it new meaning. As a writer I tend to listen to a certain type of music while I'm stabbing away at the keyboard- and this is a perfect example. So do yourself a favor and check it out on Youtube or iTunes. Very soothing in an Iron and Wine sort of fashion, hopefully you will enjoy it as much as I do!

Plaid and Simple

Every season there is a trend that seems to hop from one designer to another. Whether this is intentional or deliberate who knows, but at least said "trend" comes in different forms allowing the public to choose for themselves.

This season it seems to be Plaid and Tartan prints. The latter of which has been spotted on Design genius Marc Jacobs in the form of, no not a dress, but a kilt!



Now, I'm not suggesting you wear a kilt, after all we're not all in New York City, but the print itself is a key piece for men in 08. In Cape Town we're slightly behind when it comes to trends, so we can expect the masses to follow suit by NEXT year, although to be fair I have seen some youngin's wearing Lumberjack prints with skinny denims. You can buy them for R200 at Jay Jays!

Here are a few versions of the above mentioned look from this and last season:












Note that Paul Smith mixes his use of the print with various other colours to get that old-worldly feel! Layering people- layering!

Herve Leger Sequin Ombre Bandage Dress

i'm going to start displaying the posts that i have on my xanga fashion blog (www.xanga.com/fashion-2010-2011) on this blogspot site, because i figured everyone might not feel motivated enough to go over to my xanga site, so i might as well just repost everything here. all of the graphics are compiled by me on this site (unless i state otherwise), so don't hotlink them or claim them as your own. thanks :) now enjoy today's xanga post word for word...

Hi babes! I am still on a mini hiatus, as i mentioned in my last entry because i'm getting the magazine ready for you guys. it'll be here sometime in december. i've got a lot of work to do with this site and with my life so just bear with me and continue to show support. so, anyway i decided to post this entry just to tide you over a little bit and also because this sequin ombre bandage dress by herve leger is absolutely stunning and would be a great option for any parties or events that you might attend and if you feel like spending $2,800 on a dress.


the craftmanship and cut of this dress is amazing and the color palette will be appealing on many skintones, and the shine of the dress will lend some glow to your skin. with this dress you can keep accessories simple, but make sure that your hair and makeup is as brilliant as the dress (not too overdone though, because overdone doesn't always translate as sexy/stylish), because just because your dress is amazing doesn't mean you can do nothing to your hair, your face or add no accessories whatsoever. have fun with it. :)


a lot of young celebrities have been seen wearing herve leger, and for good reason! young bodies deserve to be shown off--we don't have them for long. some such celebrities are rachel bilson, joy bryant, kim kardashian and her sisters, mischa barton, emmy rossum,etc.


here's the history on herve leger, the brand:


The epitome of exquisite fashion, Herve Leger is a collection of supremely seductive couture and deluxe ready-to-wear designs. Created for a glamorous and sophisticated woman, bands and tucks that closely wrap the body have become the signature of the collection. By smoothing and shaping women's bodies, Herve Leger dresses create a sensuous and feminine silhouette. The body-shaping cut of each item, characterized by the aptly named "bandage dress," sculpts the woman's body to perfection. The Herve Leger woman knows she will make an unforgettable statement, whether walking the red carpet or simply painting the town red.


Since its inception in 1985, the striking and sensual style of Herve Leger has attracted an international clientele consisting of the world's most beautiful and fashionable women. Hollywood stars including Sharon Stone, Lindsay Lohan, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Charlize Theron, Beyonce Knowles, Christina Aguilera, Janet Jackson, Eva Mendes, Nicole Richie, Jessica Simpson, Eva Longoria and Jessica Biel, to name a few, have become some of the label's most devoted fans - forever linking the Herve Leger name with the glitz and glamour of Hollywood.


In 1999 Parisian couture house Herve Leger was acquired by Los Angeles-based fashion giant BCBGMAXAZRIAGROUP, marking the first time in history that a French couturier had been acquired by an American designer. Azria immediately set out to expand Herve Leger's retail presence. The collection is currently available at four eponymous boutiques on New York's Madison Avenue, Beverly Hills' Rodeo Drive, Paris' legendary rue Cambon and in Las Vegas.
Responding to an increasing demand in the marketplace, a capsule collection of cocktail dresses and separates designed by Max Azria was launched exclusively at Intermix for Summer 2007. Additional wholesale partners such as Selfridges, Net-a-Porter, Ron Herman, Fred Segal Flair, Henri Bendel, Wynn Las Vegas, Brown Thomas in Ireland, Holt Renfrew in Canada and Della Spiga in Melbourne, Australia, will carry the collection as of Fall 2007.


The Herve Leger and Rose Leger fragrances are sold exclusively at Herve Leger boutiques and select department stores worldwide.

What I wore, today

I've seen this done in a few other blogs so I thought it might be nice to show you what I wear to work and play occasionally.




This is a fitted fish-tail mens blazer in black, with an incredible lining of a coin design.


These shoes are my pride and joy and I wear them only sporadically so that each time it's like seeing an old friend and that way they keep like new! They're Paul Smith Brogues from the mainline and they were a pretty penny but so worth the wait.

Whenever I wear a statement piece I think it's important to be tonally concious with the rest of your outfit. Otherwise you're running around like Agyness Deyn, who we all love but girlfriend can overdo it sometimes... and she's a supermodel, so what are your chances like?

Informally-Formal



This is a look I'm loving right now. This is of course Paul Smith above. What's so fantastic about Paul Smith's designs is he is able to take incredibly well tailored and sophisticated attire and match it with not only skinny red jeans, but a leopard print belt. In his newest AW08 collection he (re)introduced us to these bow-ties that have a western resemblance. It's more of a fabric tie that you could easily recreate with any fabric you fancy.

And as for the casual-tux infusion, I see a lot of women are doing it too. First seen on Kate Moss some time ago and now tweeked by rock star designers Dean and Dan for DSquared. Dolce and Gabbana also introduced us to a sort of Hit-man Hotness with their own use of Bow-ties which are making a great sweep across Europe as well as America. I'm hoping this doesn't get as over-done as the waist-coat has for men. Which I loved but only wear open with a funky t-shirt these days! Here are a few of my favorites from various designers and random fashionisto's:







Polo, following the trend of mixing prints (much like Sir Paul Smith) is playing with the Preppy look with a twist. I know Gant likes to play with University Jersey prints as Polo has done directly below, adding a bow-tie which is unconventional in such an outfit but works quite well.



Here are a few more images for your salivation!
