The Brief History of the Manbag

by admin

Presented by Ghurka

Ah yes, the Man Bag. It’s funny how something so utilitarian and masculin can be misconstrued as something, how should we say, not so macho. 

 

The truth is men have worn bags for centuries for, both style and utility, proving that hand-bags aren’t just for women. 

 

During the renaissance (before pockets) men wore girdle pouches. Girdle pouches were very handy for transporting things like spices, flowers, and herbs. 

 

The satchel, arguably the manliest of the man bags was used primarily by school children to transport books (think modern day backpack). 

 

The briefcase came into existence during the Industrial Revolution and was used by powerful men to transport important documents, papers, books, and small valuables. 

 

During the World Wars military men fastened bread bags to their belts and used them as an all purpose carrying bag. 

 

The messenger bag has made a strong resurggence. Historically they were used by bike messengers and postal carriers before they evolved into a fashionable item. 

 

So next time friends give you a hard time over that so called “Man Bag” of yours, tell them it’s just the opposite of femininity; it’s historically masculine.

Protecting Your Leather Frank Wright Shoes

by admin

Although I am a laidback type of guy who prefers to hang out with my friends in casual clothes and comfortable shoes, I do not limit myself to buying just one type. As a matter of fact, I have a mini collection of shoes that a lot of my friends and relatives are envious of. I also have a few pairs of leather shoes that I give careful attention to because they are quite expensive and I want them to last for a long time. Leather shoes are sensitive to water and chemicals, thus it is prone to damage. There are simple ways however to ensure that your leather shoes are not just well protected but clean as well.

It is advisable to apply a water repellent on your leather shoes before you wear them because water can really do a lot of damage to your shoes. When it comes to polishing, choose a color that is the same with your shoe color or else they will get stained permanently. Also use a cream based polish instead of the liquid one. So as not to affect the quality and texture of the leather, do not go overboard with your polishing. It is a must to use a high quality leather conditioner on your shoes for them to stay shiny.

Another way to protect your leather shoes is to choose the right protectant. Keep in mind that different weatherproofing products serve different purposes. Use a beeswax product instead of a protective spray. Probably the most important tip is to not use your leather shoes during bad weather. With these things in mind, you will definitely be able to use them in a long time.

Shopping for leather shoes is likewise easy when you know where to shop for the best. Established in 1885 in London, Frank Wright Shoes up until this day, sells trendy footwear that combines classic designs with modern styling. They have a wide variety of shoes (leather, suede, Brogues, Razor Sole, and Canvas) and Boots (leather, suede, Work Boot, Chukka/Desert Boots, Razor Sole, Canvas, Chelsea Boots). There is definitely something for everyone.

Among all the shoes available, my favorite is the Frank Wright Fry Black Leather because I can wear it with just about anything. I can pair it with pants/chino pants for that formal look or with shorts for a casual, laidback style. It has a traditional brogue design and fry multi eyelet with lace-up shoe style. This shoe sells at an affordable price and can be worn everyday.

Heart Patch Cardigan by Comme des Garcons Play

Today, let me share with you on what this guy,Lee Seunghoon , wearing. By the way, Lee Seunghoon is now on the kpop group called winner and it’s under by Yg entertainment, might most of you knew this already, and what I’d liked on his styling here was his cardigan that gives the accentual appeal to the whole black outfit.

And yet, I think, their each pieces are quite promising and might be the most consider pieces in these following seasons.

Because each person or group are underwent into fatal training which basically lasted for 3 years at least before they’ll be debuted and share what they’d got afterwards. That is why you can see the passion and enthusiastic on each kpop stars today in their field, plus, they have to do something different too for them to get noticed by the crowd then receives the contentiously supports that may help them to be on the lead on their chosen craft. Yeah! that’s how the industry works and that’s how these Kpop stars live their life. Not easy right? so – better yet think 100 times first before you’ll consider yourself to be one soon ( as if it is your dreams to be into kpop industry).

Anyway, the one of the leading kpop group today, B2ST, had featured out on 1st magazine and you can see the whole set of photos below:

Actually, styling yourself ( if you are a guy) is not that hard as long as you would know the basics of fashion. Like for example on this summer season, mostly guys are more into shirts basics and shorts for bottom than to these highly fashion pieces because fashion is also relying to the current weather which I know most of you are quite knowledgeable already. So – I guess you may know by now on which pieces you must be consider in per season we can got along the way.

Still no problem, Because by my next post I will be listing out my fave stores (online stores) that has all of these trendy pieces for men were selling on.

But for now let me finish this off first then I’ll get back to you later today maybe or by tomorrow for the store’s list then I’ll be including some codes to use too for you to enjoy your shopping experience through the stores I suggested. 🙂

But you know what? clothing has a big role as well in the season or to our current weather.
