Stuff I Wore - All Wang-ed Out!

I was very happy with my Alexander Wang X H&M purchases. My fav piece is probably this scuba fabric hoodie. It's perfect for the fall season. Even though I really wanted it in black - which were all gone in minutes, but I'm pretty happy with the grey. It's very comfy and quite warm. I like the zipper detail on the pockets (images below) and the placement of Wang on the hood. I layered this outfit with more Wang inside - the 'Choose Your Team' active t-shrt. And those sunglasses - I just LOVE! The Wang on the side of the frame looks cool! It was the must get item on my list from the Alexander Wang X H&M collection. For those who shopped the collection - hope you got want you wanted. Stay tuned - more Wang outfits to come.

Stark Street Clothing - Fun with Prints!

I recently stumbled upon Stark Street Clothing though social media and was so glad I did! Stark Street Clothing is a collection of men's clothes inspired by a spirit of fun, comfort and the enjoyment of life.

They carry both polo and button shirts. What really stood out to me was their use of prints and bold colours. The prints includes floral, polka dots and fun designs. They're so much fun and fashionable!

Check out some of the pieces from the Spring/Summer collection below. Don't they just put a smile on your face?

Stuff I Wore - Shades of Grey

As for this outfit look, it kinda came about because of the weather. It was a grey spring day, so I decided to colour coordinate my outfit to it : ) What do you think?

Jack & Jones - Spring Summer 2014

It's always nice to walk into a retailer and see it all devoted to menswear. One of my fav is Jack & Jones. It is one of Europe's leading producers of menswear, where jeans are the backbone, however J&J is nowadays defined and represented by five unique brands: J&J Vintage Clothing, Premium by J&J, Originals by J&J, Core by J&J and J&J Tech.

I love the idea of having the five unique brands. An offer for a certain mood you might be in and definitely something for every occasion. The brands are designed by independent design teams, each one of them with their own ideas, concepts and designs. They all offer a full range of clothes, accessories and footwear.

Which J&J brands do you fit into most? I won't be able to pick as I'm a big fan and love them all! : ) Check out one of my recent 'Stuff I Wore' posting featuring an Originals by J&J! Find out below what the different J&J brands represents along with some of their offers for Spring/Summer 2014. I visited my local location a few weeks back and with permission, took some pics. I was like a little kid in a candy shop - enjoy!

Stuff I Wore - Floral

Yes! I'm not afraid to wear a little floral. Well, actually there's quite a bit of floral in this outfit. If you look closely, not only floral print all over my t-shirt but also on my shorts! However the prints on my shorts are very faded, therefore I don't look like a bouquet of flowers walking down the street. lol.

Floral print are fun, especially for the summer time. Guys, don't be afraid of them : ) Go and experiment! Doesn't look that bad on me, right? Let me know what you think. If you like this look, please go 'Hype this look' on LOOKBOOK.nu. Thank you!

You see the floral print of the shorts? I love the subtleness. Shorts are Insight from Urban Outfitters. Sunglasses from H&M.

H&M for Brick Lane Bikes: A Men's Cycling Collection

What an interesting collaboration - I like it! H&M has teamed up with East London fixed-gear cycling specialty shop Brink Lane Bikes to create a line of rider-friendly menswear inspired by the urban cycling scene.

Designed by H&M and tested by Brink Lane Bikes, this only means that this capsule collection is both very functional gear and stylish streetwear.

I'm only an occasional rider. I do like to take the bike out during the summer time and I 'm looking forward to sporting some of these cool, great looking items. To be honest I will probably wear them in my everyday outfits : )

Eventhough the collection may be designed with bike enthusiasts in mind, I think every guy can enjoy it. It comes in great colours, and I love all the details. The technical details become part of the look of each piece.

One of my favourite piece is the rider jacket. It's made from water repellent and breathable material, with ventilation holes under the sleeves and taped seams. It's cut longer at the back, with the back pocket and straps inside the jacket so it can be worn as a backpack. Nice!

Check out the Look Book video below and see the collection in action along with the technical details. Lastly, the collection is made entirely from more sustainable materials as part of H&M Conscious work. Look out for this special collection, hitting  around 180 stores from March 7th, 2013.
