London calling

Folks,

i am going to fly to London today, so this little piece of men´s wear foolery will come to an halt of six consecutive days. I´ll be back in full force on tuesday next week. Have a great time, blog to you soon!

Doin the Agnelli...

Folks,

boooyaah, it´s time for a break again...and plenty of quality time to spend with my love.

So, no big words today, just some pics. Eat this, and have a good weekend all!

The comments:

@Boaz: cheers, Boaz! I found some bad boys and did them justice.
@Scott: definitely reasonable. I need some black brogue ones...
@David: you exactly are covering my point, that´s what i feel like, really. It´s allright to let people see that you put effort in your wardrobe. Imho, "trying too hard" only applies to people that are trying to copy a certain look, but look like wearing a costume...

The great work of others

Kids,

spent my lunch break with Mike of Inner City Stlye, strolling through the streets, him shooting pics and me tieing a bow at Chelsea Farmer Club.

The guy on the left is one of the Torquato´s CEO, the right one is Mike, who was looking super-fly today. Mike, you should shoot yourself more often!

Tribute to tha dawg

Folks,

have been receiving lot of mails from you guys lately, most of them stating that they like what they see in here and that they find inspiration, at least partly, with what i am hosting here.
I am pretty sure i said this before, but i really am proud to at least kind of entertain you. I´d probably be blogging anyway, but guess what: it´s a hell of more fun knowing there´s some one out there that is interested in my crap :)

Anyway, this is what i wore today. Felt like throwing in some colour today. Weather proved right to do so. And yet, i gotta tell you that i couldn´t prosper from the sweetness outdoors: been working my head off today, and only left the building about 10 p.m., after completing a 13 h day...suck my life.

Any thoughts on that?

Ma Baker, gimme mo´ money...

Folks,

i am pretty busy organizing my lovely gf´s and my move to our new place. Seems as if i have gathered a lot more things than i expected. At the moment i am really wondering if all the things will fit in my new appartment...Cheers to all our buddies who are helping us out, many thanx in advance!

The moment all this moving stuff has successfully passed, i´ll focus on improving my shape: i definitely need to do some sports again, let alone seeing a hairdresser. And i got to see the tailor, there is work for him on a jacket i recently wore...

Deets are as follows (and no, this is not to show that i am the lable king, but because people were asking for the manufacturer´s details):

- jacket by René Lezard
- cardigan by Topman
- shirt by Montenego
- tie by Gilberto
- jeans by Hilfiger
- shoes by Grenson
- pocket square by Altea Milano

i wanna put it out straight away: you guys are the most awesome, polite, refreshing blog crowed i have ever come across. I wanna thank you for all of your efforts, the time you spent commenting on the pictures shown in here, your suggestions, your stories, just about everything. I mean, you could spend your time surfing elsewhere, being entertained way better than in here, but still you come back every time and you even let me know what you think about the crap i´m uploading.

What´s up for the weekend, children?

Being lazy on a sunday afternoon

Moin,

was ist das zweitschönste nach dem Kauf von Schuhen? Richtig, die Versenkung seiner selbst in die Meditation des Poliervorgangs...

Was soll man auch mit einem Sonntag machen, der kalt, grau und schneeflockenschickend jeden davon abhält, auch nur einen Fuß vor die Tür zu setzen? Man nimmt sich also seines Schuhwerks an, schnappt sich Schuhcreme, Bürste, Essig und wienert, was das Zeug hält.
Dass sich das Ergebnis natürlich hinterher sehen lassen kann, ist keine Frage.
Hier bin ich der Meinung, darf man die Mühe, die man sich gemacht hat, ruhig sehen.



In der restlichen Herrengarderobe heißt es ja sonst immer, dass man nicht allzu "bemüht" gut aussehen darf...wobei sich mir auch nicht erschließt, wie ein Look, der "bemüht" aussieht, denn nun tatsächlich aussieht...
Können die Damen mit einem ordentlichen Ausschnitt und einem passenden Make-Up schon ne Menge "Ah"s und "Oh"s rausholen, bleibt uns Herren ja nur die Flucht ins Detail, bzw. die Kombination aller Details zu einem gelungenen Oufit.

Wenn das "bemüht" ist: bin ich halt bemüht. Sind diese Jungs bemüht?

Im übrigen ist Connor genau der selben Meinung...
