Unconditional UK continued with its modern take on sportswear in their recent ss 2010 collection featuring loose silhouettes and pieces like leggings and billowy shorts.

Prada Saffiano Portfolio

It’s okay for a man to be a little bit extravagant and splurge on his daily needs. Who made it a rule that we must all be subject to portfolios made with nylon or some other inferior material when we can have luxurious leather ones. Thanks to Prada that yearning man has this Saffiano portfolio within his reach.

Ralph Lauren Customized Polo's

Ralph Lauren is giving its esteemed customers the chance to customize their own RL10 monogrammed polo’s as part of its New Year activities. You get to select your color, monogram or pony. You can also get pairs for every member of your family as the brand offers the service for women, kids and babies :o]

The Fashionisto shares images of an editorial in NY based Surface Magazine shot by Tom Hines featuring models Mikus Lasmanis, Adrian Wlodarski , super cute Daniel Liu, David Agbodji and Stelios Niakaris. For the magazines travel issue rocking some of my fav American brands :o]

ASOS Wrap-Around Leather Watch

Burberry First featured wrap around watches for men as part of their spring 09 collection, I thought it was a brilliant idea although i felt some of my readers might be left out due to the price but thanks to Asosman you can cop it for $42.49.

31.12.2009- Happy New Year!

New York City has got to be the place to see in 2010. As always, I wish I was there.

Let the coming year be your best yet:

'You can't just sit there and wait for people to give you that golden dream; you've got to get out there and make it happen for yourself.'

- Diana Ross.

Calvin Klein Jeans Nylon Manbag

Men most times look for functional bags that are also stylish. This Calvin Klein Jeans nylon bag meets both the functional and stylish criteria. The best part is you don’t have to break the bank to cop it. Retails for $188.67.

Kris Van Assche Suede Asymmetric Strap Sneakers

I prefer the hi-top version of these Kris Van Assche sneakers, but then again the low cut ones don’t look bad either. Especially this cos its made with suede which gives it a very warm vibe. Retails @ Asos

Topman Metallic Shoes

Sorry if you feel I’ve been harassing you with Topman products but its fast fashion guys and the rate at which they throw out good stuff is hard to keep up with. These uber chic metallic shoes in silver and gold is surely one of the ways the score is kept in sartorial standard bearing.

Shofolk Finlay Suede & Leather Shoes

Shofolk is a collection of men's and women's shoes designed by the team behind the clothing company, Folk. Their unique shoes have an attention to design and detail which give them a style of their own. Retails @ Asos.

Topman Canvas Boat Shoes

Topman casual boat shoes in denim and leather are feet chic and can be dressed up or down. I prefer shoes with rubber soles and most which fall into the casual/formal hybrid like these. They give you a chance to be either serious or playful and are perfect day to night shoes.

Topman Drapery Cardigan

Continuing my long oversized top fascination, this cool Topman drapery collar long cardigan has just been re-stocked. From the looks of things it won’t last long so hurry in making your purchase decision.

Kris Van Assche Long Tees

I’m starting to get into long oversized tees. They are chic for layering as long as you wear slim/skinny trousers underneath tucked into some hi-tops or boots. Seen a few online on my various web treks but these from Kris Van Assche are du jour! Available @ Forward
