Hellooo ! I'm happy happy happy and I have too much energy ! (For the people who are interested: that has two reasons 1. I'm going to see Iron Maiden at Pukkelpop - how great is that !!!!!!!!! - 2. I have to take pills for my stomach fracture - too long story for a fashion blog - and they just make me crazy and give me too much energy ! Ok, enough of that shit ! Over to the fashion - and that made me happy too ! I found the greatest guy ever on Lookbook ! http://lookbook.nu/user/4081-Joona-W From Kokkola... I hadn't heard of it before, but I searched it up: it's in Finland ! He's a drummer...........whiiiiiiii ! His favourite color is black...............more whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ! Take a look at his looks -mhihihi that sounds funny !- and enjoy ! He's got such a great style ! That's just what I want to see on a guy ! And his hair.....................in one word: WOW ! (And no, gamefreaks, I don't mean World of Warcraft here... ) Ok it's a bit risky, but I like it ! (If I lived in Finland, I would have asked him to marry me ! .........Just kiddin ! ) So my top 3 of his looks: 1. http://lookbook.nu/look/167820-42 (Marry me, marry me, marry me ! ) 2. http://lookbook.nu/look/54938-unknown-pleasures 3. http://lookbook.nu/look/41420-blackwhitegrey It was so hard to choose three favourites 'cause all of his looks are great ! Take your time to look good at it and just copy his style !
(Ok, don't mention my enthousiasm and energy, you know the cause ! )
Helloo ! I discovered some days ago something cool on the H&M site (ok, maybe I'm very retarded sorry... ) ! A style guide ! Ok it's not that spectacular, but it's still very cool ! http://shop.hm.com/nl/campaign?campaign=831_STYLEGUIDE&page=GUYS_WTWI&scroll=campaignmenu_GUYS_MENU&scrollx=0&scrolly=0 That's the second page, in my eyes it's the most important one of the three pages... Like that you can copy those styles very easily and cheap ! I like the four styles so it's up to you to choose your favourite ! But I prefer the first one ! It's discrete but still risky and undiscrete (I know that sounds very paradoxal - is that a word in English ? ok nvm ! - but that's just the feeling I get when I look at it...). The occasions to wear it : *The first one: for a day in the city, to go to a party,..... *The second one: to go to the beach, for a day in the city as well,..... *The third one: to go shopping, a party,..... *The fourth one: to go doing pubs with friends, to go to the beach,.....
You can even make the ones from Metallica and AC/DC as you wish (different color and so on...) !
They are even cooler because: * They fit every style (more about that later...) * In my opinion they are the coolest shoes for guys ! * You can create you own ones on the site, try that out ! http://www.converse.com/#/products/shoes/converseOne/scratch Choose the model you prefer and then you can start choosing colors and prints (wow I'm a big fan of the black&white and black&purple tigerprints ) !
You want to buy Allstar/have Allstars and you're - even now - not sure how to combine them ? Go for the skinny jeans (blue, black, grey,......), a bandshirt and a cool pair of retro sunglasses !
Helloo ! Like my title suggests: it's about Star Wars... Isn't Star Wars for geeks & nerds ? Naah, not (anymore) ! And now I think a lot of guys will be happy (but you're not the only one who watches Star Wars, even I saw a couple of those movies ... ). Here is a cool guy from Lookbook with the coolest Star Wars sweater ever ! Btw I'm soo happy because I was one of the first persons who hyped him before everyone did ! http://lookbook.nu/look/595311-A-long-time-ago-in-a-galaxy-far-far-away
Helloo, I'm here again ! As you know I'm quite ill today so I had a lot of time to read my magazines (ooh that's one of my addictions: fashion magazines - but the worst thing is that I haven't got enough time to read them all...) and I discoverd a cool thing. Ok, it's from the january issue from ELLE Belgium, but it's not that retarded, just a little bit. I guess you all know the American rockband Kings of Leon - oh my, they're pretty good ! - and now you're probably gonna say: they make music, they don't have anything to do with fashion ! But that's soo not true - logical, 'cause otherwise I wouldn't put them on my blog. So I guess it's time to come to the point: the guys of Kings of Leon signed for a little collection (twelve pieces in a men's collection..) for the brand Surface to Air from Paris. Check it out here: http://www.surfacetoair.com/store/?pg=collection&collection_id=27 My favourite item is definately the red checkered shirt ! http://www.surfacetoair.com/store/?pg=product&product_id=8184
xoxo Marielle (I'm really sorry that my message today is soo short, but I really don't feel well today. So more fashion new, updates or just cool stuff I saw as soon as I'll recover ! )
Hello my dear readers ! I'm ill....again ! I'm getting sick of it - litteraly ! But I'm still gonna try to keep my blog running... And with a bit of luck, I'm healthy and well tomorrow.
Soo now you can hear me already coming: it's sooo important to invest in good denim pants ! I'll try to help you a bit out. Some notable brands: Diesel Levi's Cheap Monday Topman River Island (only for the skinny jeans... )
First note: What kind of jeans do you want ? You should know this already, there are a lot of 'styles' in jeans: skinny jeans, bootcut, .... First you have to take a look at the clothing style you have or you want to have. My tip is to go for the skinny jeans, because this one fits a lot of styles. You're not so into skinny jeans ? Ones with strait legs are very cool too ! Second note: The washing is important too ! You can go for dark jeans, yea even black ones, or for washed ones. The choice is yours, but make sure that it fits your style !
So, I hope I've been able to help you out choosing the right jeans for the right style ! Use my tips, 'cause it's sooo important you wear the right jeans on the right way ! It's just the base of your whole look !
Hello ! Today a short message... I went running this afternoon with a good friend of mine. Now you'll say 'That has nothing to do with fashion !'. But that's so not true ! Actually we always feel a bit ashamed in our sportclothes, but you have to make sure you wear the right ones. We always go in the oversized style and today we discovered that it's the best thing to do ! Because there was a lady in the park running with stretchpants and it was ugly to see ! Her ass !
PS: Today, Aerodynamic finally discovered the publicity for my blog we put in his locker ! So if you read this A., welcome to my blog and come check it every day ! Just because the only way I have to save the world is fashion !
As you guys can hear, I managed to put music on my blog ! With much thankyou's to Maxime who helped me with it (yea I know, I suck in computers.. !) ! This is the music of the band of a Polish friend of mine, Karol, and his band is called: ZESPUŁ1. The extract you can here is a cover from the Bloodhound Gang, the song is called: Fire water burn. Here is their myspace: http://www.myspace.com/zespul1 And another site where you can hear their music: http://www.lastfm.pl/music/ZESPU%C5%811
Check those ones out !
xoxo Marielle
With my special thank for ZESPUŁ1 because I can put their music on my blog and to Maxime, because he fixed it for me !
Helloo my dear readers ! You're not that into fashion but you do wanna look good ? You don't wanna spend many time by buying and searching for great clothes but you do wanna look good ? You don't want to go over the top but you do wanna look good ? Then I have thé message for you ! In one sentence: less is more, because simply works too !
Hellooo I have a short message for you about a cool accessory item. You're very religious (well Chrisian ...) or you just want to pimp your outfit ? I have the solution for you ! Wear a paternoster (we call it like that in slung Dutch...).
Ode to the cardigan: A cardigan is: Cool Amazing Romantic (phaha I just had to find an R-word ) Disstressing ( I think I don't really have inspiration...) Imagination Godessness (is that actually a word ? ) Acid & sweet together - like the sauce in the Chinese restaurant ! Nucleair explosion effect - in the good way... Ok anyway, I'll shut up with my stupid wordgames...
So hello everyone ! Today I'm gonna bring an ode to the cardigan. It's such a cool item too wear, and such a shame that not many guys wear one... So I discovered why: they find it gay... That's why I'm going to refute that now ! CARDIGANS ARE NOT FOR GAYS ! THEY'RE WAY TOO COOL ! Ok, capish ? I hope I brainwashed you now a bit !
Heyheey ! Today was great with the sun shining all over ous ! (Except that I made two missteps at the same - rather crowdy - place.. But I'm not gonna annoy you with that shit ! )
I found a really cool look today on Lookbook ! And DO try this at home ! http://lookbook.nu/look/567213-Undiscolsed-Desired At the first sight it's not that special, but you should have a look at the details. Just the combination of safety pins and leopard printed shoes. If I had heard that, I would have said: "Blèèèh ! So ordinary !" But he does it so subtile, so cool ! I'm a fan ! (Whoaa, the last time I'm fan of everything ! xD But nevermind ! ) - You must also know that I'm not a fan of leopardprints, but he just wears it sooo cool !
You want this look too ? Just copy it ! It's cool for everybody ! Just keep it sober with black skinnies, black T-shirt, black cardigan/ blazer/ leather jacket,... And then the finishing touch with the safety pins and the leopard print. I should keep the leopard print in the shoes like he does. Vans had some really cool ones, but I think there out of stock now ! But you never know... : http://www.highsnobiety.com/news/2008/10/27/vans-animal-series-leopard-pack/ Not a fan of leopards ? You can try some other animals... Sacha is a shoesstore that has really funny and rather creative shoes. I'm sure they will have some animal ones and the website shows a pair with zebraprint : cool !http://www.sacha.nl/index.php?k=3&t=1&c=&i=410 The safety pins: Spiros (the guy from Lookbook..) put them on his T-shirt and that's very cool ! One of the best places you can put them on I guess... But you can also wear them on other places: * On the pocket of your pants (just choose one pocket, not both...). * If you wear a cardigan, in your cardigan. Don't put them in your leather jacket !!!!! That costs too much to make holes in it ! *Jewellery: sometimes you can find jewellery inspired by safety pins.. Open your eyes and maybe you'll find something !
I like this very much as long as you keep it sober and subtile... Do try this !
You can see that the style of Jord Wearn is a bit the 'poor' guy. I like it very, very, very much. Aaand it's cool that it fits our new mentality for 2010. I'm a fan !
You want to copy this look ? Just go visit a vintage store or go and check your wardorbe or the one from your brother, father, grandpa,... for old items. But you have to look out that you won't create a beggar look.That is not cool ! For the pants you can buy you some new ones and rip them to make them look new and old at the same time. I like the sweater of Jord very much and maybe you'll find such one in a vintage store or between your old clothes or the old clothes of another person you know. Your sweater can look kinda old when you buy yourself some new-old pants. But warning : this look doens't allow beards or mustaches - Ok, actually I'm never a fan of that - because otherwise you will look like a beggar ! And the clue isn't to be a beggar but a cool 'poor' guy. For your haircut you can choose: the I-just-come-out-of-my-bed-look or a tidy look. The choise is yours but just make sure that it fits your face. Btw Jord his hair is very cool with his outfit ! I'm gonna say it once more: I'm a fan !
So, I guess that were the most important tips. You still want to know something else ? You still have problems ? Ask me, I'll try to help you !
Today I'm going to give you my top 5 T-shirts in a few categories. It's of course important to choose the right T-shirt for spring and summer, so I would like to help or to inspire you !
Helloo guys (and girls of course !) Spring and summer are coming up and then one thing is very important: EYEWEAR ! It's very important to wear the right and cool sunglasses ! (And I must admit that I find such sporty and cyclist ones very not !... So if you have such ones throw them away ! Give them to your ennemy ! ... And buy you some new cool ones, very cheap !)
There are two sunglasses styles that are really cool now and that I like very much: * The retro style: (Yeah, I'm an Adam Brody fan, but you must admit that he's cool with his sunglasses !)The frame has to be like the authentic Ray-Bans. You can wear them black, but maybe try to go once for flashy colours ! Ok, I know Ray-Ban is rather expensive, but there are a lot of cheaper brands that sell retro sunglasses ! You want to invest in a pair of Ray-Bans ? Try those ones: http://www.ray-ban.com/belgium/ The red retros The ones right from the red ones The black and white retros (right from the previous ones )
*The aviator style: (Hmm, James Lafferty fan too !) This style of sunglasses is a must for every guy. You can combine it with a lot of styles. (Just look out that it fits your face ! Btw retro shades fit almost every face, but aviator ones don't !) Ray-Ban also has really cool aviator ones ! http://www.ray-ban.com/belgium/ (My favourites on the Ray-Ban site are the ones in the left corner at the bottom... ) But again their are much cheaper ones ! - http://xml.riverisland.com/flash/content.php On the River Island site are a lot of aviators. (Go to men --> accessories --> jewellery/watches/sunglasses --> the sunglasses begin at page 5) My favourites are on page 7 in the right corner at the top called 'metallic aviator sunglasses' ! - From American Apparel: http://store.americanapparel.eu/sabresg.html?cid=141 http://store.americanapparel.eu/barrysg.html?cid=141
Helloo again readers ! Like I promised, I'm here with the second part of my 'green is the new purple' message. Aaaaaand it's about.............surfing style ! Everybody's gone surfin', surfin' USA ! Make waves, not war ! Don't let the wave hit you on the way out ! Catch the waves ! No water sucks ! ... Ok, I'm gonna stop saying those surfing sentences . I did a surfcamp last summer and it was awesome. I just didn't manage to stay on my surfboard ! Do you surf ? Yes ? Very good then ! No ? Just try it once, you'll like it !
Aloha ! I thought that spring was coming up, but now snow is predicted for tonight. Well I still gonna give you style advice for this spring and summer. The weather can go to hell . Like the title of my message already told you: green is the new purple. Last year, purple was thé color to wear, now it's replaced by green. I have two styles for you where green is introduced. The milirary style and the surf style... Ok, I know it are completely different styles, but that's good for you cause like that you can choose the one that fits you the most !
(PS I dicovered that when you click on a link in my messages you loose the page of my blog... Anyone knows how to solve this ? Tell it me please.. Till now you can just CTRL+C the link and CTRL+V him in a new internet page... ) This message is the first part ! Here I'm going to discuss the military style. So the surf style will come soon. Interested ? Check tomorrow again the second part will probably be there tomorrow...
1. We love soldiers I split this style also in two categories. You can go for absolutely military but also for the military accent... 1.1 Pathfinder meets soldier This is with the military accent. I have another Lookbooklink for you guys and I must admit I love it. I adore it ! It's tooo cool ! http://lookbook.nu/look/413683-Let-s-all-go-camping-in-style-2-of-4-Dsquared I love the green accent of his socks !
Copy the look: * The camouflage shorts. They are necessairy to have that military accent. I have two sorts of camo short for you. The ones that are very green and the "washed" ones. The choise is up to you. The very green ones: http://www.newlook.co.uk/1828916/182891634/ProductDetails.aspx The "washed" ones: http://xml.riverisland.com/flash/content.php (go to men --> shorts/joggers --> casual shorts --> first page, the one left and at the botom called 'belted camo cargo shorts') You want to create the look with the black leggings under the camouflage shorts ? It's this one that the guy from Lookbook wears. http://store.americanapparel.eu/rsa4402.html?cid=176 * The top: He gives that schoolboy, pathfinder accent by wearing a shirt, a tie and a blazer. So if you want to copy his whole look do that too ! If you want to make it a bit less schoolboy you can leave the blazer and/or the tie behind. The white shirt: http://www.newlook.co.uk/1918931/191893110/ProductDetails.aspx The tie: http://xml.riverisland.com/flash/content.php (go to men --> accessories --> underwear/socks/ties --> last page (the 5th one) --> the second one from left at the bottom called 'super skinny tie') The blazer: http://xml.riverisland.com/flash/content.php (go to men --> suits/trousers --> suits --> first page --> the 4th one from left at the top called 'skinny suit jacket') Tip: the Lookbook guy made it more schoolguy by adding buttons on his blazer. Do try this at home ! *The boots: Combat boots are again necessairy here for the military accent ! The ones the Lookbookguy wears are from Zara and are very cool. But he told it was from the women's colection, so I guess not many of you guys will be able to fit in women's boots. http://xml.riverisland.com/flash/content.php (go to men --> footwear --> boots --> the first page --> the last ones called 'high military boot') The socks: http://www.topman.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=56&viewAllFlag=false&catalogId=17551&storeId=12555&categoryId=132901&parent_category_rn=55918&productId=1489908&langId=-1 Those ones are not totally green, just make sure that the green top comes out of your boots and not the rest...
So I hope I helped someone out with this message or that someone will follow my tips... P.S. If you're interested in the surf style, don't forget to check my blog tomorrow again !
I don't know how about you, but in my school it's almost prom. So I'm gonna write a tuxedo & prom message to help you choose the perfect tux ! First of all: you don't have to change your whole style by wearing a tux. You can try to shine your style through with the help of some details... Second importance: try to match with your date.
Match with your date ! First it's important to know what dress your date is going to wear. (Tip: If you don't have a girlfriend or a date yet, just ask someone. Your date haven't to be your girlfriend. You can ask your best female friend or when you dare to do it: your crush... Follow my clothing tips, or just follow your own clothing tips, breath deeply in and ask her ! )
3. http://www.mangooutlet.com/zoomProducto.faces?id=81439071&type=zoom&idioma=IN That's the happy and funny girl. She matches the best with guys who dare to wear bright colors and cool clothes. Guys who can put their humor in their tuxedo. This style can be a bit risky, you have to watch out not to look like a clown. This isn't a style for many guys too. It really should fit your personality !
For the trousers you can look to the first look. So don't be afraid to wear black skinny jeans for your prom ! You can even copy the shirt from the first look. But the shirt from the second look would fit as well.
http://www.cheapmonday.com/ ( I couldn't link you the photo, but I'll tell you how to get it: Collection ss 2010 --> boy --> 3th page --> 3 look from left above )
Make your own one ! You don't want to buy a denim jacket, but you do wanna have a cool one ? Search in you old wardrobe, your father's one, your friend's one,... for an old denim jacket. When you want to make it extra cool: cut the sleeves off ! DO try this at home... Good luck !
