As I’ve heard, the brand Maison Kitsuné is originated in Japan and been on the industry for good years already. They does some awesome campaigns too for their fashion pieces and finds and they’ve also got a spot on the international fashion as they offers some quirky finds to everyone. Actually, I am not that impressed to their pieces for this collection as I’ve always sees this similar to those usual brands but I think there’s still something different to them which they implies in each of their pieces, and that would be their rich culture. I can see the japan culture on their material used and the same time in the fashion statement alone, it does speaks the style of majority of the Japanese nation.

Japan is well know on their diverse culture and being on the top when it comes to technology. Japan also known on their kawaii fashion which deals on being who they are today and how unique it was to be. Though, Maison Kitsuné is trying not to put up some additional details for the accentual sense and yet I can see its nature here, I mean the culture in overall thus I am pretty sure that these pieces were got in to the market well as its releases this coming months ahead.

Maison Kitsuné’s latest winter and fall lookbook called is “Love Rises.” Which has a tastes of the modern man and yet the unique sense is still implies to it. These collection pieces were be available in the market pretty soon and as you ask me when it be? well, as for the moment, I haven’t heard them yet but no worries folks. Because as Ive heard any from them – I’ll assure you to update you all again in here for further details.

Most men do just fine dressing themselves for a social context. I know countless guys who are very fashion conscious, and yet don’t know how to dress for an interview or other professional situation. If you have a similar issue, then this post is for you. Here, I’ve listed some great tips for fashion and grooming in preparation for a job interview.

Let’s start off with the suit. In the world of business, a man’s suit is a massive factor in how his colleagues view him. If yours doesn’t give off the right impression, you won’t be getting the job! The general rule is to go with plain, solid designs. One in navy and one in deep grey will usually be all the suits you need. While verbose pinstripe designs might rub certain executives the right way, your safest bet is to choose something nice and boring. Go with a two to three button cut. Either should be fine, but consider the mien of the company you’re hoping to work for. If you think they have a more traditional way of running things, a two-button cut is a little more classic. Having a custom-made suit from a good label also goes a long way. Look at michaelandrewsbespoke.com/suits for some inspiration.

Unless it really doesn’t fit with your suit jacket, I’d go for a plain white shirt. Traditionally speaking, this should have a straight point collar. However, these days it’s become much more common to have a less flashy button-down. The styles which should be avoided are tab collars, pins and wide English spreads. Look at businessinsider.com for more details. You might think that a little gold monogram adds a touch of class, but they should be avoided unless you’re going for an executive position. I’d also stay away from French cuffs. These can complement the rest of your attire pretty nicely. However, if you’re not used to wearing these, they should be avoided. You don’t want to have a cufflink malfunction the moment you’re called in!

When it comes to the accessories, don’t stress too much about the tie. Yes, it’s the first thing you notice about a man’s suit. However, a classic dotted or striped pattern will usually be sufficient. As for your shoes, go for normal black lace-ups. You may feel that you want to stand out from the crowd, but don’t. Casual loafers, along with shoes with buckles or straps, will stand out in the wrong way! Aside from that, wear a nice mens watches and subtle cufflinks. Be sure to keep a comb on you and use it within the minute you’re going to be called in. Flair and individuality may be great for some situations, but when you’re looking to get a job, go with the uniform!

There you have my best tips on picking out an interview wardrobe. I’ll leave you with one last pointer; don’t be afraid to ask! Some people may see it as unprofessional, but for the most part you shouldn’t worry about it. In your initial phone conversation, there’s nothing wrong in a quick “what should I wear?”

 

What a Guy Wants This Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is here once again and for sure there are people out there who are in a dilemma as to what to give to their loved ones on this day of hearts. It goes without saying that it should be special since it only happens once a year. Women sometimes have a hard time choosing the right presents for their boyfriends or husbands simply because most of the market products are aimed at women. No matter what it is, always keep in mind that a good gift will not only make his day but will likewise show your love and appreciation for him, especially when he has been great all year long and he deserves only the best. Also remember that your gift does not have to be expensive. As long as it comes from the heart, it is good.

If you want to be on the safe side, the usual polo shirts in different colors and designs are the way to go. You can also give essential clothing items like socks, underwear, and boxer shorts but make sure that it is the right size and goes with his preferred style. If he likes ties, you can buy him formal and not so formal ties that he can wear at the office or at a special event. Throw in a pair of uniquely designed cufflinks. Accessories like belts, caps, sunglasses, watches, wallets, and messenger/body bags can also be given. If your guy likes footwear you can always give him sneakers, rubber shoes, sandals, and flip flops.

Pamper him from head to toe this Valentine’s Day with a luxe grooming set which includes a deodorant, body spray, aftershave, pomade, beard balm, and soap. If you want him to smell good all day, give him his favorite cologne or perfume. For him to not lose his keys and to keep him organized, a key ring is a must. If he is a book lover, you can get him a copy of the book he has been dying to buy. If you have the budget to get him a more pricey gift, give him the gadget that he is saving up for.

Tattoos: Dos and Don’ts

Think before you ink! It is easy to become so eager about a tattoo that you shorten the decision making the process and head straight to the tattoo studio, later with regrets you’ll live to tell about. With the following tattoo dos and don’ts, you can ensure that you do not make a decision that is going to haunt you forever. Remember, tattoos are permanent!

Let’s start with the things that you do want to do when getting a new tattoo.

Do:

  • Go to a professional tattoo artist. Although there are many talented individuals who perform tattoo work as a side job, it is always a big risk when you go to these professionals. Not only are there health risks, it is also anyone’s guess what the finished result will be. Protect yourself and always choose a pro for your tattoo.
  • Expect some pain. Although the intensity of the pain varies from one individual to the next, there is going to be some kind of discomfort when you get a tattoo. Be prepared and expect this so there are no surprises later down the line.
  • Plenty of research is necessary if you want to select the perfect tattoo. Remember that the tattoo is a new permanent fixture on your body that everyone can see. Make it count!
  • Consider kids temporary tattoos before the real thing. These tats for kids are easy to apply with water and a little bit of pressure and remove within a few days or sooner if you so desire. Starting with a temporary tattoo can help you feel the tattoo experience without any long-term commitment.
  • Take care of your tattoo after you get it. If you do not take care of the tattoo it is not going to look as good as it did while you were sitting in that tattoo chair. You also increase the risk of developing a skin infection if the tat is not taken care of.

Now for a few tattoo Don’ts:

  • Do not rush into the decision.
  • Do not allow anyone to talk you into getting a tattoo. It should be something that you want to do on your own free will without any influence from another person. This is forever; make sure that you are ready to make such a long commitment.
  • Don’t try to negotiate the price of a tattoo.
  • Don’t go to the studio after you’ve been drinking and definitely not when you are intoxicated. You’ll be a big nuisance to the tat artist and to others at the studio and you won’t get the tattoo that you want until your system is free of alcohol.

Final Thoughts

So there you have it: the dos and the don’ts of getting a new tattoo. Make sure that you keep a little list of these dos and don’ts, and always go into the studio with your best manners in place. But let loose and have a lot of fun because it is an experience you’re never going to forget.
