A Balancing Act

Model: Kwabana Lindsay / Photographer: Sølve Sundsbø / Stylist: Mattias Karlsson

Came across this editorial by chance on tfs a couple days back. When I saw it, I immediately thought of the Prada Spring/Summer 2010 Ad Campaign/Lookbook. Did a quick google on the model (never exactly heard of him before), turns out he's an actual circus and street performer so I'm assuming it's all real in the ed. Extremely cool.

Womens Fashion Week (SS2011): The Street Styles (Part 2) - The Backpack & Shoes

When I think of backpacks, I think of school. I loved them so much back then very simply because they were roomy, perfect for all your school stuff. Alas, the love affair with the backpack was shortlived especially with the discovery of the huge bag community (sling bags, totes, clutch bags just to name a few). Recently, however, I've noticed more people being snapped carrying the backpack. A comeback perhaps? Then again, it probably didn't go away in the first place.

The backpack in all shapes and sizes.

There's a name for this kinda backpack I believe? Looks like something the army boys would carry or for when you go camping/hiking. Also can be used as a punching bag. Haha.

And then there's the shoes. This time round, it's shoes+socks V.S. the sockless look.

To many, socks are probably just an essential or expected piece to go with shoes. I personally think, like scarves, socks can be used as an accessorizing piece to jazz up an outfit. Wearing coloured/patterned socks with shoes of a single colour, especially if it's peeping out of a folded pants hem/rolled-up pants (like those pictured) makes the overall look much more interesting don't you think?

Love the details of the cut-out leather shoes (above) and how cool is that loafer that's entirely weaved (below)?

Wingtips/brogues are one of the most common footwear for men. Seems like it's rather popular for the Italians to go sockless while wearing these shoes. Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if there's some sort of style rule/tradition on that or it's simply just a personal choice? 

Nice flap detail.

Colourful bright shoes!

Womens Fashion Week (SS2011): The Street Styles (Part 1) - The Scarf

Finally! Some street style inspirations for you guys. Saved these images awhile back and totally forgot about them. Here are some of the highlights from the Tommy Ton for GQ.com street styles shot in the cities of New York, London & Milan during the recent Spring/Summer 2011 Womenswear Fashion Week.

The scarf is such an easy piece to throw on and with the chilly weather during fashion week, it's a great duo-function versatile piece that not only keeps your neck warm but can also complement/accessorize your outfit.

Colours are my favourite as always. I'm kinda drawn to the metal chain piece that's attached to the lapel of the jacket (top pic), not exactly sure what that is but I'm thinking maybe a pocket watch? And how cute is that polka dot pocket square (bottom pic)? 

Matchy-matchy.

There's just so many ways how a person can wear/tie the scarf and achieve multiple different looks in the end.

(Above) Great example of how to wear the scarf differently. Alternatively, you can wear it as a belt by simply looping it through the belt loops and end with a knot at the side. For the girls, wear it as a dress or top or turban just to name a few. The possibilities are endless.

And of course, anyone can look stylish, young and old alike.
