BASIC MATTER: PLAYING OXFORD

With the weather holding cool-ish in Manila, I was certainly singing in the rain. I had hoped to get one more outing for my cashmere pullovers and my parka jacket for this month. But on donning it this morning in front of my mirror convinced me that the jacket's season is definitely over until typhoon season this June, so to the dry cleaners it goes.

I am going to get a full length mirror soon. Should I lose my beard? Not yet!

MY SUMMER LIST:
Photobucket
Basic oxfords

Photobucket
Sexy loafers from the tag team effort of Raf Simmons and Fred Perry. They come in red and black and the collaborative logo has been placed on the inner sole.

Photobucket
Espadrilles, Canvas everyday tote big enough to carry everything and a nice preppy grosgrain belt

Photobucket
and denim trousers from A.P.C

you're still that fashionable huh?
and brand-conscious, may i add.
but that's okay as long as you're really after the quality and the design not just the designer.
*wink*

not really, just being myself. I’m not sure with being brand conscious – I believe I’m not (maybe somewhere in between). Most of my stuff are bespoke, thrift finds and re-worked. I’d rather wear generic than fake.
