Maybe though am just tired already by doing my blogging activities each day without seeing any improvement and sorts that’s why my interests to this are not that strong like before. But now, I am really trying my very hard to get myself on track again and share what I most interest about….

Lvr Limited Edition “Moon” T-shirt by Marcelo Burlon

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. Though, the full black outfit was already dope but adding an top piece to it really gives it a great classy styling for him. I think, most Korean guys are into this kind of styling these days..

He’s wearing Marcelo Burlon for his Black Tee that has the snake prints on it. And the Cardigans was from the brand Comme des Garcons Play or others knew this brand as Play. You can also try this outfit by finding the same pieces he does wore in this.. I might try this as well soon as I got time to shop online or if a client will sponsor me some..ehhe

Okay then.. that’s it for now and I hope you’ll keep on checking me here for more Kpop fashion because I assure you that I’ll update this category so often.. 🙂

Nowadays, being fashionable does not only apply to women but to men as well. There are many actors, singers, athletes, and other celebrities that guys look up to when it comes to dressing up. A metrosexual or a man who is meticulous about his appearance specifically the clothes he wears and spends a significant amount of money shopping, is becoming more common. Chances are he knows the latest fashion trends and follows them religiously. Looking at fashion magazines and watching fashion shows, one would know what designers have in store for men and therefore will be able to choose the clothes to consider wearing.

Bomber jackets are in fashion no matter what the color is but neon colored ones are perfect for summer. Another trend that not many men might like but is totally in fashion is the printed shirt, suit, and tank top, specifically those with tropical floral prints. Sorts of online shop has several floral shirts available at affordable prices. The tie dye is not just for hippies or artsy men but is probably the coolest print to pull off this season. For men who like wearing suits, stiff power suits are out. The new tailoring emphasizes fluid lines, softer fabrics, longer jackets, and looser pants.

Bermuda shorts also swept runways this season. Some even wear it with cowboy boots. But this trend is something that takes a little getting used to. As for shoes, bright trainers are very cool. Also making a comeback are brogue shoes, a low-heeled shoe or boot traditionally characterised by multiple piece, strong leather uppers with decorative perforations or broguing and indentions along the pieces’ visible edges. Guys can shop for some stylish brogue shoes from Zalora available in different designs and colors. Last but not the least, the color of the season is blue. It does not matter what shade it is, as long as it is blue.

Boys to Men, or Men to Boys? —Skincare Tips for Looking Young, Fresh, and Healthy

by admin

It’s easy to jump out of the shower, throw on some clothes and head quickly out of the door. For many guys, this is the standard “getting ready” routine. However, this rushed regimen can wreak havoc on your body’s largest organ: your skin. Just like your hair needs a regular cut and your nails need periodic trimming, your skin needs some attention, too. Here are some tips for keeping your skin looking fresh and healthy:

Daily Cleanse

Skip the bar of soap and hot water mix, and instead cleanse your face with a good quality facial scrub every morning. A lot of guys just try to keep it simple, hence the bar of soap, but the combined effect of hot water and soap can dry out your skin, which only serves to increase the wrinkles and age you. Not good!

photo image34_zps73b68f9d.jpeg

Use a Daily Moisturizer

Once your face is nice and clean, apply a daily moisturizer. Ideally, pick one with sun protection factor (SPF) so that not only do you moisturize your skin well but you’ll also protect it from the harsh rays of the sun. Moisturizing every day will help you feel fresher and look younger, and give you softer skin. There are many moisturizers for men out there on the market, so test a few and you’ll quickly see which one is right for you.

Invest in a Quality Razor

Shaving, a daily event for many men, can leave your skin tight, dry, and, if you’re not using the right equipment, irritated. With the right tools, however, you can lessen the effect. Invest in a good quality razor and you won’t be disappointed. Choose one that suits the condition of your skin and beard, be it sensitive or extremely coarse, and avoid cheap, drugstore razors at all costs. Splash some warm water on your face — maybe even squeeze in a quick facial scrub too — to open up those pores, then apply a moisturizing shaving gel before you get started.

Drink Water

You’ve heard it so many times before but it really is true. Drinking a healthy amount of water will keep your body, and your skin, well hydrated and looking its best. Winter weather and temperatures go in particularly hard on the skin, as spending more time in the heated, indoor air can cause your skin to lose moisture. Dehydrated skin can look wrinkly and dry, so make sure you find time for those eight glasses of water a day.

Eat Right

Finally, a healthy diet can also help improve the quality of your skin. Make sure your diet includes the recommended five fruits and vegetables each day. Fruits and veggies are high in antioxidants that will help protect your skin from damage. Carrots, sweet potatoes, kale, spinach and foods high in vitamin C — namely kiwis, blueberries, and papaya—are especially high in these powerful antioxidants so pack them into your meals whenever possible. Then watch how your skin thanks you later on!

 

With the right products and approach you can whip your skin into a fitter, healthier-looking protective layer in no time at all. You’ll look good but feel great! It all starts with a face scrub!

[SNOB] Metal Paisley Snap back in Gold – 67,310KRW @ GVG

Might someone over there might get interested to know on what these Kpop idols often wears most of the time especially the idols or celebrities they’d often look up too, right? today, let me share with you this piece of accessory, an cap perhaps that this guy named Kikwang, B2st member, wearing on the photo on top. Actually, I see a bunch of Snapback already of the same thing, design wise, about this Addicted Snob cap but I think the brand name, Snob, was the one most consider and demand today since most celebrities are fond of wearing it. Have you seen your fave idols recently wearing the same cap or anything pieces from the brand Snob already? I think, snob brand is kinda popular today in Korea? what do you think?

Since I was a guy that has a lot of spare time and due to my curiosity about the brand.. LOL I’ve decided to check on the brand’s main site and I’ve found out that the guy kikwang wears on the top photos has an price of 67,310KRW and indeed! SNOB is an local brand in Korea. But no worries. Because you can still buy the same cap or anything pieces within the brand by just checking their online store here: gvg.co.kr . Alright, that is the only information that I can give out here since the brand, Snod, is not yet affiliated on this site. hahaha They must see this write up and consider me as their influencer. ahah just send over some pieces on my way please???

Okay, that will be all for now  and I hope you’ll keep on checking me here for more fashion and news updates regarding with some kpop fashion as well brands and labels new in collections. Thank you so much!

Steal his style: Pharrell Williams

The statement sweat

If you’re a keen follower of Pharrell’s style, you’ll already know that he loves to wear statement pieces and standout prints. Set yourself apart from the crowd with this floral sweatshirt from the range of 10 Deep clothing at Capology. The vivid orange print looks great against the black base colour and, when teamed with a pair of skinny jeans, will create an effortlessly casual look.

The BBC T-shirt

No Pharrell style guide would be complete without an item from Billionaire Boys Club. Designed by Pharrell himself, the signature T-shirt featuring the brand logo regularly features in the rapper’s wardrobe. You can pick one up by visiting the official website here.

The camo shorts

Whether it’s hitting the studio or visiting the skate park, Pharrell has frequently been snapped wearing camouflage board shorts. While they may not be appropriate for winter wear, they will be staples in the summer, so pick up a pair now and make a saving. Team them with a pair of vibrant trainers for a look that Pharrell himself would be proud of.

The suit

Although he may be the king of casual cool, Pharrell is no stranger to looking dapper in a suit. Regularly donning sharp, exquisitely cut suits on the red carpet, he often looks for ways to set himself apart from the standard black-tie dress code.

You could do this by opting for a patterned suit jacket, like this checked one from Topman, or simply swapping your white shirt for a bolder number. Of course, in true Pharrell style, a bow tie is essential. Take a look at Mrs Bow Tie, where you will find a selection of bespoke and handmade accessories that are sure to make you stand out.
