LOOKBOOK | Cropped and cuffed patterned pants

'Sup, guys?

I really have no idea what the cloth used for my pants is called. It doesn't quite look like houndstooth to me but I also have doubts whether it can be considered gingham. But who really cares, right? I find it nice, more so with its cropped fit and cuffed design.

Now how else to go with it but a plain top? Yes, the black long-sleeved shirt is a very safe choice but a fail-safe one nonetheless. Sure, you can try mixing patterns but when you're running late, this shirt is the perfect dumb reach. Or a pullover.

And then a pair of brogues to complete the look, with a no-socks look to celebrate the pants's cropped style. The two-tone design of the shoes also adds some depth and variety, I must add.

How do I look?

So what do you guys think? It's a simple look that I think anyone can pull off.

FRAGRANCE | Green Cedar EDT by Bench: An environmentally-conscious offering from the Philippines' premier retail brand

Image
A few weeks ago, I found myself wandering inside Bench Powerplant Mall. And what else would catch my eye but two fragrances by their lonesome twosome, positioned far away from the rest of the brand's scent offerings. They're Basil & Neroli and Green Cedar , both EDTs and part of the  Bench Better Made line . The frags are purported to be vegan and cruelty-free. They come in 125ml dark brown glass bottles and brown paper cylindrical boxes. Nice packaging there except for the cheap, plastic cap. No big deal, though, since they're just Php 428 apiece.

Man of style: Steven Tyler

Image
What? Yes, Steven Tyler. He obviously does not fit the bill of the suited type or the GQ man but hey, the man's got style. And he's got swag, baby! Since joining American Idol , Tyler, together with fellow judge Jennifer Lopez, have glammed up the singing competition with their flair for fashion ( forget Randy; he's hopeless ). And I am more than happy to wait for what he's gonna wear each episode.
