#LOTW Plaid-ed Heart

A Little "Grease", a little "Hipster", a little Trendy... Hello Sappers, first of all, sorry it's been so long since my last look post, I'll spare you the boredom of the whys but I hope this makes up for it and I will make the best of my efforts to keep it up, so bear with me ;p You guys know how I feel about simplicity and comfort, effortless style is my main focus when it comes to fashion, I'm all about comfort and easy to wear elements. Neutral tones are my thing and it has been "en vouge" over the past months, this look is and example of all the above. A simple V neck T', paired with ripped black skinny jeans and a belted blue plaid shirt, put on some comfy, soprty, Classic Nike's and you have it all! you are on trend, comfortable and effortlessly in style. As far as colors go I have always been a black and white kinda guy but I always recommend giving a pop of color to your outfit, in this case a little blue and

#MusicMonday Years & Years : Communion

Years and years, that's how long it feels like we've been waiting for this band... This 3 boy British band formed in 2010 and has been on a steady pathway ever since. They have released several Singles along the years as well as some EP's, but it was their single: "King" that put them under the spotlight, reaching the N°1 spot in the UK music charts.   Source: Years & Years Google+  On July 10th, the Brit Trio released their debut LP Titled: "Communion". A 17 song long record (Deluxe Version) that is without a doubt a masterpiece from start to finish. I can only describe their sound as: Fresh, Unique and Upbeat with just a pinch of darkness, melancholy and heartbreak. The lead singer (and keyboardist) "Olly" has a very unique, soft and captivating voice that is the perfect match to the band's overall sound.   Source: Years & Years Google+  Their sound is upbeat overall, though the record does have

#asappreads Bookworm : Julie & Julia

I won't lie to you, this book took a bit of time for me to actually read it through, and it's not because of this length (which is bellow average actually -400 pages) but rather because it prove a little hard to read, I know I'm provably making no sense, but let me explain...   I got this book a long time ago in a random shopping spree, I got into a recently opened book store and got this particular book amongst others; I got this one because I was developing a new found love for cooking and I kinda had seen the movie already, but I never saw it from start to finish, so I figured why not get it?..   Anyways long story short I got home and started reading it, but for some reason or other, it was just not getting my full attention, so I put it down... This happened more times then I can count over the course of the next few years. it was not until June of this year (2015) that I decided to give it another try, just to get it out of the way and finally scratch it fr

PFW Haute Couture Pt 2

Giambattista Valli   Valli does it again!...   Like I said before, if you have been following the Couture collections of the past seasons, it is truly remarkable to see the evolution of them along the seasons and Valli's is by far my favorite always.   A retro collection with lots of influences from the 60's, 70's and 80's, it starts with the shorter versions of puffy "ballerina" skirts with low waisted tops, and combinations of this with pants, it evolves to more intricate cuts and more structured garments. The attention to detail is remarkable, feminine details such as flower embroidery, feathers and sparkles and transparencies. He finishes up in the most magnificent way, with very big, gorgeous, long, puffy skirts, topped by long embroidered blouses.   It is truly one of the most elegant and outstanding collections from the Haute Coutre collections by all means.           Versace Atelier   A boho chic collection..
