William Eggleston

William Eggleston is one of my favourite photographers. He is an American-born photographer in 1939 and established colour photography as legitimate artistic medium in art galleries and museums while it was only black and white photography before. Eggleston also had the first one-person exhibition of colour photographs in the history of MoMA. Check out more of his photographs here. As some of you know from Twitter or Facebook, I am heading to Thailand today, so blog updates might be a little slow over the next two weeks.

Bits And Bobs #63

T-Shirt & Jeans by Acne, Hayward Trench Coat by Nike Sportswear, Shoes by Rachel Comey, Bag by A.P.C.

I grabbed this A.P.C. canvas/leather bag from sale and it is a nice replacement for my canvas tote bags. The weather was so unstable the last couple days, that I have been always wearing this coat over a t-shirt or sweater. It is light enough to not worry about heat and it is absolutely water-proof due to its Gore-Tex fabric. I like to add sporty elements to my outfits from time to time.

Menswear Streetstyle Inspiration

Menswear fashion shows are in full swing. They just ended in Milan and started in Paris today. I will probably post my favourites once the shows are over in Paris, so until then I decided to post some of my favourite menswear streetstyle captures by Nam from StreetFSN. Enjoy!

Resort 2012

Fashion week madness is about to begin with the first menswear fashion show in Milan, but there is something else on the fashion world schedule – the resort collections. It feels like an eternity since I last had a look at some collections (fall 2011 shows), because I was too busy with school and other projects. Now that I have a long summer break, I have enough time to have a proper look at all the resort collections. Here are my favourites from this season.

Bits And Bobs #62

Denim Shirt by American Apparel, Chino Cotton Trousers by Albam, Natural Burlap Toms, Glasses by Moscot

Pretty similar to the last outfit entry but here is nother denim shirt by American Apparel, and while it's not the brand I usually look for when I want to buy new shirts, their latest creations are really appealing to me. This one is made in a particular lightweight and soft denim cloth, which you can also recognize by all the creases it got from wearing the whole day. I love this shade of dark washed-out khaki, which goes perfectly with my new natural burlap Toms and the solid navy chino trousers from Albam.
