Mix & Match

Outfit: Pants purchased from H&M, Topman hat and sando, Country Road (click!) sports bag, watch by Axis Watches and Aldo shoes (on sale).

For a guy style blogger to be able to put together different outfits within 10 mins a day, I'm quite proud of what I've achieved through my blog. Haha I think girls have it easy, having so many different options of clothing brands and designs to choose from, when compared to guys, mens fashion is somewhat limited in the Philippines. Either way, this gives me the opportunity to mix and match different clothes and learn to make use of every piece of clothing in my wardrobe. From what I've realized when putting together an outfit; start off with owning a variety of pants made up of different colors such as blue, red, beige, green, orange and yellow. When having that done, you'll have realize how many more options you will have when mixing around different pieces.

Times Change

Aside from checking out the enormous Mall of Asia, have you ever checked out the The Archdiocesan Shrine of Jesus church next to SMX Entertainment Center? I've walked passed it on so many occasions but never have I given myself the time to admire the architecture of this classical Spanish church. Today I'm at SMX for a for a fashion show with SM Teenswear. I realized that i'll be around here all day so I thought I'd prepare an outfit suitable for me to roam  around in after rehearsals. 

How cool is the red shirt? I was thinking to myself this morning that it might be hard to mix and match this shirt without confusing people thinking its Christmas already. So by pairing the shirt with brown my brown fedora and slacks, it would look just fine. Im actually happy with the end result - nothing too attention seeking (maybe just a little) and I didn't need to go all out with layering. I also got the chance to wear my new watch from Axis.

Outfit
Red button up shirt from Artisan Clothing (local), brown cotton single pleate trousers from Topman, fedora hat from New Era, Herschel backpack and Zara socks and shoes.

For those who don't yet know, I was lucky enough to work with KC Concepcion for the new Axis campaign that has just been recently debuted. At the shoot I was one of, and if not the very first to see their new collection which had certainly caught my attention and I'd have to agree when Axis states - "no fashion or style is the same as another. No matter how common or outrageous it can be, it’s your own statement, and no body can argue with you about it. Axis gets you into a space where style embodies more of who you are and what you want to say without pretense." 

They have huge new collection of watches soon to reach the stores and I'm sure you'll find a watch that will compliment your style. And for the price that they're on sale for, you can't go wrong.

Just lastly, this is my mate Samir Ayeb who is also a model here in Manila. He was nice enough to take my photos today, haha he's such a funny little annoying lad. But this was a photo I took of him today and I thought it would be cool to upload it so you can tell me what you think. Cheers!
