Just caught sight of this shot on the Fashionisto blog, I’ll be honest I’m no huge fan of the entire look. The sandals may have looked good on a runway but in a gothic graveyard teamed with black socks, they don’t work. Socks and sandals? Really? Are you actually having a laugh?

But as my fashion tutor always said when doing research never ever look at the whole image. Sure you may like the look, but figure out the details that make it work, tear up the image leaving only them and use that to inspire you. It’s stop you regurgitating the same stuff as everyone else because when you join the dots of the tiny pieces that inspire you you’ll have made something new.

So thanks to Fashionisto, and Soon, I’ve been inspired by the silver ring/cuff combo by Guiseppe Zanotti, blanked out the sandals/sock fiasco and feel enriched. Its a little Seven of Nine, but not so underneath it all I am still a bit of a geek. I like. In fact I really really like. Not idea how I’d actually look wearing it but lets not get in the way of its beauty.

Flat front trousers have been the only way to go for so long it was only a matter of time before the pleats started to return.  Ok so these are a little extreme but I love the colour blocking here. Forget subtlety and bring out these great trousers. From the satin waistband to the deep red panels these look amazing.  Not for your everyday kind of man, but that’s not who these are designed for. Bring it on I say. And if you’re like me, looking for something possibly a bit less in your face then use these as a great starting point, and tone them down. Maybe panels in a different shade of the same colour, an angled pattern or stripe. Or just a highlight colour in the pockets like the pale blue. thefashionisto: Dante Tozetto & Isaac Farisato by Hugo Toni for Made in Brazil

Whats to come…… Hello Bo Pressly and a nice bit of androgyny, but to be honest am more interested in the check shirt. Clearly these beauties are not about to leave menswear anytime soon. But its getting colder and more wintery and am loving the more muted colour palette of this shirt.  I’ll be posting some more trends and am thinking of a series of unusual style icons. I’ll keep you posted and hopefully interested. Any recommendations? Also check out LDNfashion.net where I’ll be recommending the menswear shows to stream etc from London Fashion Week. What with this, work and that marathon thing looming (well April) I’m starting to get a bit busy.  High-res

Burberry AW10 My long time love of Bruberry and everything Christopher Bailey is particularly well documented here. But indulge me if you will. I desperately want this jacket. The shearling is sumptuous.  Its now in the window of the Bond St store and looks fantastic.  This is one of the press shots for AW10 and if you flick back through the archive you can read my fawning and somewhat gushing review of the show. But with shots like this can you blame me? Though I do feel somewhat sorry for Adrian Bosch, the model, he’s in two very very heavy coats in this shot, not to mention the heavy socks and shearling lined boots. To his credit he doesn’t look like he’s about to expire.  Thanks to The Fashionisto for the shot via Interview Magazine High-res

I’ve seen this shoot across several blogs and really have not got tired of it. A clever and fresh way to showcase your new talent and faces. Brazilian boys rarely fail to impress and this is no exception. I could definitely appreciate to furry love after this shoot.  According to the Fashionisto its shot on polaroid film, I love the imperfections that you can see from it.  Made in Brazil Magazine | Introducing by Cristiano Madureira | The Fashionisto High-res

Pen March 2010 | Julius Gerhardt by Rene Habermacher | The Fashionisto This is a great summer spread! Showing just how summer tailoring can work, though not in this shot. Click through to see more. I love the use of the scarf as a belt and will definitely be robbing this styling idea for summer. Here;s hoping we have a proper one this year! Not some lame attempt at a heatwave during office hours only to tip it down on weekends and evenings. No thank you! I want hose-pipe bans and more. High-res

Paris Fashion Week | Gareth Pugh Fall/Winter 2010 | The Fashionisto#more-60538 Gareth Pugh manages to reign in his total insanity again and come up with a dark but wearable collection (pleated maxi skirts aside). I love it. I also love how each seaosn he is honing his skills and look, and letting the clothes speak for themselves rather than the theatrics (regardless of how talented or creative they may have been).
