Findings - Dior Homme Men's belt

W color belt from Dior Homme

WHY: I'm always on the look for cool belts, cause just like shoes belts can make a statement without being too load and in your face which is exactly what this W belt from Dior is. I love the combo of canvas and leather/suede and since its only about an inch wide it will highlight your unique sense of style in a smart way..... although i personally would have loved to see a wider versions of it, like about 1.5" wide...that would be cool as well. I love the distressed brown suede which i can see mixed nicely with a casual look in a jeans....where the red/black version holds a bit more sporty feel.
INFO: Suede/leather and canvas, Width: 3cm. Available in 2 colorways: Brown suede with Black canvas, and black leather with red canvas.
PRICE: $379.32

Opening ceremony Fall/Winter 2010 shoes collection

Opening Ceremony in my opinion is slowly but surely building itself to be the next Barney's... but off course with a lot more fun and less attitude...therefore their new footwear collection  which is available now online is just a natural addition and just like almost everything else we have seen from OC it has a new feel but still easy and not pretentious! The colors and materials breath new contemporary feel into classic styles and even me who is not a big fan of desert boots must admit that some of them here make me drool..... like the

Findings - Men's Belts by ISH AOR

Leather belts from ISH AOR (pronounced Ish-or)

As you probably have noticed i was MIA this last month....i was actually in Israel visiting family and friends and just enjoying the hot weather and the beach..... while i was there on one Friday afternoon while Brooke and I were walking through the street fair in Nachalat Benjamin in Tel-Aviv where different artists sell their designs our eyes caught right in the entrance to the market a table filled with cool colorful leather belts by ISH AOR (in Hebrew it means leather man), they were all one of a kind and very unique and hard to miss......they are all hand made by a dutch designer who is currently live and create out of Israel.

WHY: G.D makes all his belts and other leather goods out of natural full grain leather, everything is 100%

Style icon of the week - LeBron James

We all know him as "King James" - in my opinion he is one of the best athletes out there and maybe even ever! Not just physically but also mentally (I find it very hard to be in the spotlight at the age of 19 expected so much of and actually slowly and surly deliver...you need to have the right character). But the question for us is...does he have a strong style as well??? GQ Magazine  posted this week a look into his closet and i  must say i was very impressed and thought i should share this with you all. Yes he had some help from their stylist but i have seen him dressed up before and the guy has a nice taste, its sophisticated, smart, not too loud and not pretentious.
Take a look at the GQ post and see what you think.... i really liked the first 4 looks especially the plaid pants + vest (or as i call it the new suit) and the striped cardigan with the pink plaid button down shirt and tie....
Now you really earned your nickname "KING JAMES"!

Summer story - Swimwear

Summer is in full power...its hot, humid and sunny....just the way i like it! and while i was spending last weekend lounging side pool, my good friend and a fan of this blog - John, suggested a story about swimsuits so here is my take on men's swimwear....
I personally have been looking for the perfect swim short for a while now, and i found most of them to be either too expensive or just ugly (either not flattering or just teenage looking). My preference is board shorts (The ones that surfers wear.....), they are cooler looking and not as nerdy as other swim trunks.
