Bastiaan Ninaber, Vincent Lacrocq and Ryan Barrett in H&M
Is it just me? Or is this Fantastic Man editorial entitled Super Sartorial Summer proclaiming its love for affordable mens fashion in the most blatant way ever? The heroes of the editorial – Bastiaan Ninaber, Vincent Lacrocq and Ryan Barrett – are photographed by Benjamin Alexander Huseby in a sharp selection from the Swedish fashion chain H&M. Doing those strong manly poses of theirs in unison by the picturesque desert location overlooking the endless blue ocean, one cannot help but sense that this summer promises to be hot and cool at the same time.

Lara Stone and Anne Vyalitsyna show off Sonia Rykiel lingerie collection pour H&M
After seeing Sonia Rykiel’s line for H&M in person, I am feeling a little bit confused right now. Perhaps it is because as I stepped out the door at home, extremely excited to see the fresh new arrivals, my loving mum reminded me once again that a pair of panties of that quality could be made at $USD 1.00. Arrrrgh… Thanks, Mum!
Well… If I neglect mum’s advice, I think the prices of Sonia Rykiel’s line for H&M are reasonable, because afterall it is evidently cheaper than the real line. Nonetheless, it’s still not to my wallet’s taste, especially the headband and the oversized brooch with the playful Rykiel big bow at respectfully $USD 34.95 and $USD 24.95. As expected, the store was flooded with people today. They all snapped a monstrous chunk of sexy bras and panties intimately in their arm. The favourite amongst the crowd was understandably the design with the colourful Rykiel signature stripes. With the armful of goodies, the girls found themselves stuck in a hideous queue outside the changeroom. Only a few dared to spend and went home with a tiny little Sonia Rykiel pour H&M bag. Well… It seems like no one was willing to go completely nuts for it.

Russian model Sasha Pivovarova for H&M Fall 2009
This happened yesterday, after a long day of ogling some really really beyond great pieces from a lot of different labels, like Acne, Neil Barrett, Lanvin, Raf Simons, Rick Owens, Givenchy and etc. We finally made our way to H&M to buy the things we could truly afford and steal obtain three copies of H&M magazine on the way (Mmm… Marina Linchuk in underwear!).
The store at the time was as usual crowded with a swamp of people and amongst which, we spotted a woman, with a larger-than-her Miu Miu paper bag under her arm, struggling to squeeze through the rather tightly spaced racks in the sea of people to check out a particular extraordinaire of her taste. The sight of it was so ridiculously hilarious that it poked out my mean bone, as I spoke to my friend in English thinking that the “glamorous” owner of the fore-mentioned label would not understand a word coming from a certain blabber mouth, which spoke inconsiderately of her daring cynical thoughts: some stuff hailing from a certain peachy-pink label is just made of 100% cheese. Just as the word “overrated” was emphasised, the woman suddenly turned to look at us, took flight in a rather slapdash fashion and was gone with her overpowering big bag of goodies in a matter of microseconds. Well… Walls have ears and without the walls, oops…

Sonia Rykiel pour H&M Christmas 2009
Mark the Date! Sonia Rykiel for H&M’s lingerie collection is coming to stores worldwide on 5th December 2009. Ready or not, you know, it’s going to strike in style! So far from the pictures released, the collection seems to be playful and chic in the French label’s notorious ways! Although to me the girls in the campaign – Lara Stone, Anne Vyalitsyna and Caroline Trentini – looked out of place and not in sync with each other, I just love the way each girl looks so comfortable and at ease in it. That’s the way underwear should be, no? Body conscious, smart and sexy; Sonia Rykiel has it!

Dear Robert,
Danish model Mathias Lauridsen – wanted and needed. Alive and sexy, please!
From the response of ”*lol*”, which I received upon the blog post entitled “Nordiska Kompaniet Summer 2009 Catalog” with subject matter of the Danish model Mathias Lauridsen; I cannot help but sense a kind of sarcasm and perhaps… a bit of jealousy from you! Am I right?

Rock me, Mathias! You are Danish!
I don’t know about you, but each time, I go to any Gucci store, I just feel so self-conscious, not only because of the cougar-like stares from the super-cunning sales staff; but also, every time I catch a glimpse of Mathias walking the runway oh-so-seductively on their in-store TV screens, I just get all childish and cannot help but giggle ever so silly – creating an embarrassing series of mysterious-yet-hilarious stories for the sales staff to share over smoke breaks.
David & Goliath’s “Rock me. I’m a Danish” T-Shirt is one such fun Tee that arrouses such a silly smile on my face. Yes, Mathias looks nothing like the round donut – who apparently is the Awesome German Composer Mr. Mozart dressed like a Danish playing the electric keyboard oh-so-rock ‘n’ roll. However, you know what? Like a yummy Danish, Mathias just rocks and knocks me out each time he walks, he talks… Mmm…
Well… If I have to choose a Tee to reply his sweet loving gaze upon me, then, David & Goliath has this super adorable ”I’m so fawn of you” Tee.
Can’t believe Tees can actually say it all! Wow! The 21st Century!

@ Burberry @ Galeries Lafayette: A delectable range of coats from Burberry at Galeries Lafayette in Berlin Mitte, in particular spotted a real nice black shiny coat made with wool, silk and polyester. So stunning!
@ Zara: sunnies @ 19.95 euros each? Cheap?
@ H&M: two pairs of stockings for 5 euros. Cheap?

Polish model Anna Maria Jagodzińska for H&M COS
Have never been to COS before and this is ultimately my very first time. Saw some very gorgeous pieces – all very Jil Sander, because everything is so minimal and streamlined. Compared to the original, the prices are of course great, but still higher than H&M.
I liked the shoes but was afraid to even try it, because the sales all looked so stuck up. Nonetheless, I managed to snap a catalog/lookbook/COS paper and I love it! Though I think they should do it less Jil Sander-esque, because it is very unoriginal.

@ Fleamarket: an original pair of vintage heels from the 1940s complete with exotic python skin. Priced ridiculously at 40 euros aka approximately two pairs of flats at H&M.
@ Train: girl in peek-a-boo stiletto bootie complete with cut-out heel. Trés cool!
@ U-Bahn: Erin O’Connor-esque tall girl with jet black short hair. Very elegant!
@ Fruit store: A hobo version of Jacquetta Wheeler.
@ Zara: polka dot sleepwear inspired dress (button cute!) and leopard print sweater or possibly shirt (trés cool!).

H&M Moccasins
That is my moccasins from H&M. I am still wondering whether they are worth the money I paid for it, even though it was not that much compared to those Zara flats I want. The problem with these moccasins are:
-Unlike what they look like, they are not ‘that’ comfortable (as trainers are)
-They make my feet go black when I wear it all day long
-It grazes my nail polish off, too!
-I think I am not rocking the look as much as Swedish girls are.
Please ignore the hair problem as seen in the pic. I tried to darken the pic so that the hair becomes invisible, but without success.
