Five Rules of Fashion All Men Should Follow

admin  Fashion

Everyone knows that great style comes from great personality. An item of clothing on one guy may look cool on him and then look terrible on his brother. It happens and is easy to understand. You just need to understand that your average normal guy is normal and average looking and worse yet, has average taste in fashion. He can work out as much as he wants, have plastic surgery, and even win the lottery, but nothing will make him less normal and average faster than improving his wardrobe.

The problem is fashion can be quite the tricky thing for many men. No one is saying you need to be cutting edge, but at least try for up-to-date. Like for example, you really shouldn’t need help coordinating appropriate colors with your clothes. It’s even easier if you follow a couple simple rules. Here are just some of those rules that men need to pay attention to:
Match your tie with your shirt – Every guy I know has at least one colored tie that matches a solid-colored shirt. Unfortunately for them, this look is so yesterday and it’s time to shake things up a bit. Experiment with color. Don’t be shy. If colors aren’t your thing, then how about wearing ties with diagonal stripes, plaids or other subtle patterns. Be sure not to forget to match your tie with your shirt, suit, or sweater. Never ever wear a novelty tie unless it’s Halloween and part of your costume.

Pleated pants and flat-front pants – I don’t think a lot of guys realize how much better flat-front pants look compared to pleated ones. Unless they enjoy looking fatter than they do since pleats make you appear less slim. The excuse most guys give is that pleats are much more comfortable along with other nonsense along those lines. Another reason why I like flat-front pants is simply because they are a lot more fashionable and trendy at this moment.

Goyard Handbags The Story

admin  Handbags  , , ,

Goyard is a lesser known brand than its French brothers, Hermes and Louis Vuitton, but its name rings among the most exclusive brands in the world. Here you may ask why.

Goyard was as a trunk maker in 1853, a year before Louis Vuitton, but seventeen years after Hermes. And it was the malletier of many aristocratic families in France, creating bags according to their royal colors from their crests. Goyard also claims to have created the first office suitcase
(la malle bureau en Franois). Their most famous motif is a three-dimensional pattern, known as the chevron, which is first appearing in 1892, and is painted in four colors. The material is a cotton, linen and hemp blend thats coated with gum Arabic resin-this results in a super thin, lightweight, and waterproof material.

The brand once became obscurity, till Barneys featured it in their window in the early 2000s. Now people are willing to pay extra money on top of the $1000 and up prices to have their initials, a crown, or stripes of every color embellished on their own personalized bag.
But there are only twelve stores in the world, including Takashimaya (Japan), Bergdorf Goodman, Barneys (US), the Peninsula (Hong Kong), Daslu (Brazil) and Maison Goyard itself (in France, or the flagship in San Francisco). Seems a little less!
