My Cherie Amour
Spanning across the magical Seine river, the deck arch bridge named Pont Alexandre III is easily considered to be the most beautiful bridge in Paris. Constructed in Beaux-Arts style, the bridge features sculptures of mythical creatures such as water nymphs, angels, cherubs and winged horses, in a moss brown and grey palette finished with shiny gold accents.

Baby It’s Cold Outside
What a delightful sight! For the first time in about 6 years, parts of the canals in Amsterdam have frozen hard enough to walk and skate on the ice. Spring is right around the corner, but the biting cold and frozen waterways that have suddenly come out of nowhere definitely say otherwise. It’s winter all over again! Show Me More…
Slip Into Something More Comfortable
If there is one thing more peculiar than ever about how fashion trends develop, it is surely the evolution of casual wear and more specifically how denim has come a long way since it was introduced in the 1700s as work attire. The versatility of this wardrobe staple is endless, with no other item of clothing having been worn as long as the quintessential blue jeans. It doesn’t seem like anyone will be fed up with them anytime soon either, as the trending model and cut seems to change with the season creating an all new look. Show Me More…
Gold Teeth
The very first video that aired on MTV when it launched in 1981 was “video killed the radio star” by the Buggles. One would surely see the irony in that since television replaced radio as most popular mass medium in the 1950’s, playing such an integral role in modern life that most people can’t imagine being without it. As television and present-day media reflect and shape cultural values, the increasing number of screens around us is at times lauded and at times criticised. Modern technology allows news to travel faster than ever and any information we desire is just a click away, much to our convenience. However, the downside is that trends tend to fizzle in no time and the sensory overload actually restricts our ability to enjoy art, music, fashion and life to the fullest. Slow down… take your time… and switch the screens off now and then. There is a reason we focus on quality over quantity and limit the amount of our posts. Show Me More…
The Phantom Of Us
Time and again the color grey is viewed as an emotionless, dull color that evokes a sense of conservativeness and indifference. Those who deem an all-black outfit too heavy and shy away from color will probably boast a range of garments in various greys in a subconscious endeavor to play it safe. But there is a far deeper ardency to the shade grey, exuding a frailty at times when combined with white and a very moody vibe when combined with black or a monochromatic mix of grey shades. Bringing it all the way to a clean cut avant garde style, draping and layering are what really transform an arrangement of garments into a three-dimensional form. Especially when the layers feature different textures, such as faux leather, jersey, knits, woven fabrics and sheer flowing materials. Show Me More…
Breathe
Once the magic of the December festivities has worn off, winter can seem quite a dreary time to get through without the holiday decorations and celebrations. January is often a melancholy month that can feel long and trying, with spring being all that we long for. Don’t lose the spirit just yet, or dismiss the opportunity this cold weather presents to dress up in layers and keep up your stylish appearance. Whenever the January blues have you standing in front of your wardrobe feeling disinclined, just think about adjectives that define your style and put your outfit together while you narrow the adjectives down to the three that truly embody your mood that day. It works like a charm every time. Show Me More…
