Nano.Universe - Ground Floor


”秋冬のテーマは[ブリティッツユスクール]。モード,ロツクのエツセソスが漂う,スクールイテムが充魅。。。“
i totally love this grey fabric. the cardigan he is wearing also has an appeal where the centre portion is cut and sewn on with mroe details. in fact it creates a rather strong englishmen impact. dopeness.

Green Label Relaxing


while going through the Oct issue, i chance upon this picture with Remi in Green Label's dress up. im kinda feeling it. the very smoothing feel especially with the strong usage of grey materials. it blends quite nicely with the hi boots hes wearing. overall, the look is impressive. i took notice of the pin on his vest. in fact both the pin and vest is available at zozo as well.

The casual winter matchup...


i kinda fancy this group shoot especially the sweater worn by the model in number 2. where the sweater has a neck level hoodie and a long zip down. it sits firmly on the shoulder of the human where the length is also fascinating. i was also amazed by the nice fitting pants that slots in so nicely on that beautiful pair of military boots. its fantastic. there is also a small writeup of the sweater below this page as well.

Lad Musician x Tsuyoshi Nimura




"今回のイメージソースはローリング・ストーンズ。3ピースのスーツを初めてかつこよく着たのはストーンズなんだよね。彼らが税金?策で国籍をフランスに移して,ロンドンか..."

this month Men's Non No featured the exclusive Lad Musician. however, this time round Mr. Tsuyoshi has become the stylist for Lad Musician. once again they are using Rafael. there are shoots of him wearing the star monogram pants. i must say this is a very alternative japanese brand. as mentioned in the article, this time round Lad Musician has its imagery and source directed from The Rolling Stones. for price list do refer to www.ladmusician.com. alternatively i will post up some of the price list here in a while. this thread will be updated once i gather enough time to edit again.



more info will come up soon. stay tune.

Hare




hare has got some new items released lately. i wont say its very new, but probably a month or less ago. theres the new flower pin in gold. if you remember the past they used to have another black one which has more metal linings. equally i love both. i also purchased the key chain necklace with a leather strap. its just two simple items to bring me around these days during casual weekdays for window shopping. i wonder what nicer items one could get in hongkong as well. i cant wait for my hongkong trip!

Black is a beauty


flying to hongkong soon in a month's time, i decide to get a small travel bag and chance upon Agnes.B's voyage collection while doing my trips around town. i must say this bag suits all my criteria. it has got lots of nice compartments. in fact while carrying it sideways on my shoulders there is an extra compartment on the side to slot in my key pouch. magnificent. it also has lots of side pockets for our conveinence.

i love this and really im no artist, but i like the way the bag brings out the colors of who it is with. the beauty of black where it always makes itself the side cast by bringing the item next to it the centre of attraction. thats black. a beauty isnt it. hope my decoration for this bag isnt that bad!

"hey, i really love the smell of a new item. i wonder what its like to be to have one everyday!"

Men's Non-No Oct

i simply love this hare tee. i mean i dunno what's with my love for grey these days. simply appreciate the way the photo was blended in with the grey fabric. as i always say "Grey fabrics always excites me". this is one of hare's recent release of tee. a stripe long tee with photo, their recurring line is also released. do check out zozo.jp for pictures.

and yeah, the Oct issue of Men's Non-No is out. inside this issue there is a lot of inside catalogues and photoshoot of big brands once again. there is also preview of other local and uprising labels. this time round i see more shots of brands like Alfredo Bannister, Milok, SOE, American Rag Cie x Fred Perry, Mr. Olive, Public Image, M of M, Pledge, Attachment, Lounge Lizards as well as Nonnative. also there is a 2full page spread for each of the 3 labels, Lad Musician, Miharayashuhiro and Marka. Finally, there is also some touchups on John Lawerence Sullivans.

there are more then what i have mention, so really buy this issue of Men's Non-No. its really comprehensive. cheers.

Cabane de Zucca

due to the increasing demand for semi formal apparels and their casual yet classy styles, it attracted a large crowd of fashionistas to go for shirts. i have always love shirts and Zucca recently came out with their Neck Tie shirt. it involved the combination of a neck tie where the shirt is connected to the tie. it is then tighen with the neck. an innovative approach or rather a small gimmick adopted. Mihara also did similar style for shirt collars but the neck tie innovation proved rather fascinating.

Neck Tie Shirt: 2199hkd
Plain Shirts: 1399hkd
Print Tees: 699hkd

brand history:
野菜は、畑(自然)で作られる。服は、屋内で作られる野菜のようなもの。人間に必要なもの、おいしい服をいつも作りたい。デザイナー小野塚 秋良氏が提唱する洋服へのこだわりは、男女を問わず自分らしさを表現できるユニセックスなデザインに表れている。 1996年の時計発売以来、絶大な人気を誇る「カバン ド ズッカ」のウォッチシリーズは、 従来の時計への固定観念を打ち破り、アクセサリーや「お守り」感覚の 時計を発表しています。- there has always been a strong attachment on the creation of both garments and the human. in fact, it has always been a dream to create something that seem more necessary for the other party just like how grass is grown from soil. an attachment of both matter but one that is done for a purpose - which in this case is for the human.

Agnes.B


this agnes.b bow simply caught my eye. as i was pretty attentive to all the stuffs agnes.b always produced, it just simply couldnt make me save up any more. instantly i bought it. the material was amazing. it is silky and classy in my opinion. there is a metal buckle as well as metal plate where we can adjust its length. simply elegant.
