While discovering Wisdom, the most recent fragrance from Zegna Perfumes, I decided to go with an entire Italian setting for the collaboration. Piecing together some of my favourite pieces from Ermenegildo Zegna’s Spring/Summer 18 collection, all that was missing was…Capri and an Aperol Spritz! Shot by my very talented friend, Saleh Albanna. #ElementsofMan The post An Italian Affair With Ermenegildo Zegna appeared first on SMF ..read more

Yes, it’s that time of year again, my favourite time of the year actually. It’s Pitti Uomo time! With the 93rd Edition of the rolled out in January this year, I had the opportunity to once again attend the biannual fair. Catching up with old friends, discovering upcoming brands and devouring delicious fiorentina steaks, I could do this every month. Only being able to attend the last day of the fair, I worked alongside one of my favourite brands, Boggi Milano, to curate a Peaky Blinders inspired outfit. Three-piece suit, cutaway collared shirt, double monk strap shoes, a coat and last but not l ..read more

With Autumn leaves slowly making their way down, temperatures close to zero and a gorgeous fog covering the entire lake, all that’s needed to battle the crispy Swiss morning was a quilted jacket! Spending over four years in my wardrobe and having been through its fair share, it always seems to make its way back out. I paired it with a beautiful red polo, beige cuffed chinos and white sneakers.

Years before I kickstarted my blog, I had this huge obsession with Ksubi, an Australian brand started by three close friends (back then). From distressed denim and oversized tees to controversial prints and baggy shorts, Ksubi was a brand taking Sydney and New York by storm. After moving to Dubai, I was so happy to discover that Harvey Nichols became a stockist of the brand and their buyers were doing a damn good job! During my trip to Schaffhausen earlier this month, I was sick of wearing jumpers and decided to put together a Ksubi inspired look. Photos by Remy Steiner | Getty Images for IWC ..read more

Some some odd reason, I tend to favour cold weather. So when IWC reached out and invited me to visit their manufacturer in Schaffhausen, Switzerland, I accepted on the condition that it would be during the cold Swiss weather! Upon arriving in to Schaffhasen, our hotel, Alte Rheinmühle, was actually situated within a small piece of Germany territory that is completely surrounded by Swiss land, the only of its kind for that matter. To battle the foggy, frosty morning, I had to slip into my super thick turtle neck, trousers and heavy-duty shoes, before making our way to Schaffhausen’s old town…do ..read more

On a quiet Parisian afternoon, Gonçalo Silva and I hit the gorgeous Place Vendôme for some street style action as the sun set over one of my favourite cities in Europe. This two-tone Louis Vuitton varsity jacket captures the collection’s preppy Ivy League vibe. Embellished with college-style patches on the chest and sleeve, it features the season’s new Louis Vuitton Forever signature on the back.

You might own a hundred pair of shoes, but nothing will come close to a pair of John Lobb‘s, fact. The renowned English Boot-Maker has been producing some of the most qualitative footwear for over a hundred years. Yes, a hundred years! Following on from a recent collaboration that saw twenty hand selected guests hosted over an intimate Gentlemen’s Cocktail evening to celebrate John Lobb’s bespoke service, I wanted to showcase my very own pair of John Lobb shoes in a classical setting. So, during last month’s short trip to Paris, it was time to pull my pair out of their dust bags! A five eyele ..read more

It’s been a while since I’ve posted an outfit on to the blog, a new job and a hectic start to the summer are to blame. So for my ‘anticipated return’, what better way to start than with a Louis Vuitton inspired outfit in the heart of Paris during my recent trip for the 24 Hours of Le Mans race. With an aim to emphasis on the beautiful braided leather throughout the jacket, I chose to throw on a plain white tee, distressed denim jeans and clean white sneakers. With the sun setting and weather gradually cooling down, it was time to hit Place Vendome for some streetstyle action. Photos by the tal ..read more
