Burberry Prorsum's New BFF: Won Bin; 元彬; 원빈; at 15Th Pusan Int'l Film Festival

Won Bin Wearing Burberry Prorsum 2011 Ss

Won Bin's been wearing exclusively Burberry Prorsum for various occasion involving his new film titled (Uncle in Korean) or showing at the Pusan International Film Festival. The double breasted jacket and the button embellished sweater are from the current Fall-Winter collection and are both really hard to pull off. I've been in desperate searching for the sweater but no where to find. And the jacket, I happen to get the only 34 in U.S at Barneys New York. Can't wait the weather to cool down ~~

The leather jacket, which finally looks fit on him, is actually from the Ss 2011 collection. I only dream to be an celebrity so that I could have all these amazing sponsorship of clothings from my favorite brands.

The double-breasted jacket is available at Burberry, but only larger sizes..

Those who pull it off -- Men in Milan's Fashion Week

Models coming down the runway are too perfectly styled to make hearts swirl. It's often times these accidentally street encounters that are most inspiring. Taken by GQ's correspondent during Milan's Fashion Week, these "real" models indeed rocked the pavement. Every element of Fall trend is so effortlessly and whimsically illustrated.

Though I've bought a Prada mailmen bag made of the Camouflage Saffiano leather, my heart still craves the clutch shown on the first picture and the way he carries it make it so masculine and carefree. A same version, but made of classic Saffiano leather, is available at Prada.com

Also, does any one know which season does the Louis Vuitton scarf come from?

Take Ivy -- Band of Outsiders 2011 FW

People from all ages are so into reminiscence these days. Why is that the past always seems so golden and the present is just plain boring. I'm assuming it's because we always take granted for things we have for today and never really show appreciation, otherwise, we're just becoming numb and dumb.

I accidentally encounter the book the other day when I was browsing at J. Crew. I was just fascinated to see those students from the pictures taken several decades ago are so "in trend". Madras Plaid, Khaki shorts, Tweed jackets and everything else we're trying to pull off. Though not graduated from one of the Ivy league schools, I'm very much into Academic preppy. I wonder when those baggy sweatpants and hoodies with "University of XXX" took over the campus of America?

Everyone has a different interpretation about academic style and mine is best illustrated by Band of Outsiders. Those topsiders worn by models are from a collaboration between Band of Outsiders and Sperry. I especially like the one made of ripstop nylon in bright yellow. It's a great pair to break the tension of gloomy winter outfits. A recent collaboration with Korean brand named Bean Pole is also presented these past couple days. Check here.

Given the limited distribution in US, it's very hard to find a boutique that stocks all of the items. The Band of Outsiders On-line shopping site is probably the best bet, so go check it out!

The Summer Stripe - Yigal Azrouel & A.P.C & Marni

It's officially Autumn in DC and I've lined up a whole rack of new outwears for the cool weather. Though not a big fan of Summer but still it's nice to reminisce some Summer special. As obsessed with uniforms as I am, the Yigal Azrouel pants with blue strip is almost exactly as those Fedex guys wear, only cooler.

The Israeli American designer has successfully cultivated the name-sake brand into full blossom. With freestanding boutique opened at Manhattan's Meatpacking district, the brand has caught the attention by Milanese and started international distribution.

His ultra feminine technique of draping in womenswear reminds me a bit of Albert from Lanvin. In his menswear collection though, you can actually feel his ethnic originality. I was wearing an A.P.C strip T-shirt with a Vivienne Westwood Saturn pin. The loafer was from Marni and the material is very-paper like, great for Summer weather.
