Seeing tashes

As we enter the last few days of Movember I undoubtedly have tashes on my mind. Every time I look in the mirror I am reminded that I am something of a failure when it comes to this age old demonstration of 'manliness'. Despite being facial-follically challenged I am still a passionate fan of the tash. This is just one of the many reasons why I loved discovering Moustache whilst in Hong Kong. I don't think I've ever seen a better shop sign whilst stalking the streets.

Following my post on Tuesday, I duly returned to the store for one last time before returning home and I couldn't resist picking up a few bits (in addition to my suit order...more on this tomorrow!). I just love how the tailoring duo have used the hu zi (moustache) image throughout their branding. It is this sort of attention to detail that really makes a positive difference to the shopping experience and it is rare to see these days. The labels, logos and wrapping paper all provoked a wry smile and with this is in mind I just had to show off my purchases to you in a similar light...even though they might be my basics...

From underwear and pyjamas to toggle coats and lighweight suits, the store offers clothing for any time of the day or year. Given that Tuesday was one of the hottest of our trip I plucked for snazzy underwear and a perfectly thin canvas belt...tashes, tashes everywhere... Speaking of which, how the devil are you getting on with your upper lip plumage for Movember?

Reminded of rust

Having just returned from Hong Kong I am putting off unpacking my bulging suitcase, focusing instead on sharing one of of my favourite finds with you guys. As expected the shopping opportunities in this bustling city were immense and we certainly had a good crack at exploring all of them. It was obvious that we weren't the only ones enjoying the shopping culture as everywhere was so busy. Locals and tourists alike streamed through the streets and malls with a selection of bags in one hand and some kind of tasty treat in the other (be it egg balls, waffles, meat on a stick or smelly tofu). Despite the varied consuming opportunities it became obvious that one brand of shops reigned supreme, I.T. I.T launched in 1988 and introduced an eclectic mix of European brands to Hong Kong trendsetters. Twenty years might have gone by and this brand of shops is still doing just that. It was not my aim to leave the city with a couple of purchases from European designers but there was just too much on offer to turn a blind eye. I left the well stocked I.T store in Causeway Bay with a Raf Simons x Fred Perry Aw09 polo shirt.

Dazed Digital were first out of the blocks to unveil the collaboration.

For the third successive season, Raf Simons collaborated with Fred Perry for a collection based around the famous laurel. When the first round of images were released way back in June, I assumed that it was more of the same from this well matched pair. Even though I admired the collection I doubted whether there would be any significant design features which justified the increased prices for the famous laurel polo shirts. The above image and the rest of the spread taken from Robbie Spencer's styled shoot for Dazed & Confused captured the spirit of the collaboration but it didn't reveal its best feature, the metal effect. When I saw the pieces hanging on the rails of I.T for the first time I was blown away by the fabric effects and the metallic thirty leaf laurel polo shirt in particular...

A close up of the polo shirt.

For the third collaboration between Raf Simons and Fred Perry, inspiration was taken from the various stages of metal through rusting in both the fabrics choices and the metallic colour palette used. In an interview with Dazed Digital Simons informed us that "The inspiration came from the artist Carl Andre." The rusted metal treatment and enlarged embroidery combine to elevate the humble polo shirt in to something altogether more interesting. The pieces reminded me of the Patrick Ervell's SS10 collection. As mentioned previously, very little came out of the recent New York shows which provoked much excitement here at Style Salvage but Ervell's Decay in the Spring time was really something. Ever since I saw his presentation images I've been meaning to explore the aesthetic of rusting metal and it is certainly one I will revisit over the coming months now that I have this new polo shirt.

Worn with a mustard scarf from COS, drop crotch trousers picked up in a mall from Hong Kong, mustard socks from Uniqlo and Stingray Orwells from Mr Hare.

With each season, Simons and his team have a clear aesthetic to enable them to focus on the Fred Perry classics with an added twist and in this case it was through this marvellous metal effect. For me, the collaboration is gaining real momentum and long may it continue.

Akshay in Bigg Boss 3 for DE DANA DAN, Katrina Kaif on bed rest!!

Akshay in Bigg Boss 3 for DE DANA DAN, Katrina Kaif on bed rest!!
Khiladi of bollywood Akshay Kumar who plays the lead in Priyadarshan’s upcoming flick ‘De Dana Dan’ and is already making waves for his sizzling rain song with co-star Katrina Kaif, will have to enter the 'Bigg Boss 3' house without Katrina kaif beacause Katrina kaif is ill.

Sources close to Katrina Kaif say that the firangi beauty has been advised by doctors at Leelavati Hospital to take complete bed rest for at least one week, which means she can not take part in any of the promotional events of the flick as it is releasing worldwide on November 27.

Though Katrina Kaif had been feeling weakness for the last few days but it deteriorated after her return from Udaipur. She had to visit a doctor at Leelavati, who diagnosed her as suffering from viral fever. Now, Katrina Kaif will have to rest at home for at least a week as the disease is contagious and may spread to other people.

However, as the release date of the flick is November 27, Akshay Kumar and other members of the flick like Suniel Shetty, Neha Dhupia, Sameera Reddy, Paresh Rawal etc will continue with their promotional activities for the flick.

It is as continuation of that promotional strategy that Akshay Kumar along with other cast members will enter the Bigg Boss’ house today and mingle with the inmates of the house. Akki is especially interested in Vindoo Dara Singh, who is also taking part in the reality show this time

Khiladi Akshay Kumar and others will remain in the Khandala house of Bigg Boss for almost fifteen minutes and then leave. The event will be shown to viewers by Colors channel in its Thursday episode.Akshay in Bigg Boss 3 for DE DANA DAN

Earlier, the producers of the film had planned to take the entire cast including Katrina Kaif to the house. In fact, Katrina Kaif was expected to be the main attraction of the show, but unfortunately she got stuck with her bad health.

In any case, Akshay Kumar-Katrina Kaif hot rain number has already created a huge buzz in the market and everybody wants to see this happen on the big screen. Akshay Kumar-Katrina Kaif’s sizzling hot chemistry in the song is sure to leave the viewers gasping for breath.

The grapevine has it that Akshay Kumar –Katrina Kaif rain dance is in no way inferior to perfectionist Aamir Khan-Kareena Kapoor’s rain dance for their upcoming flick ‘3 Idiots.’ Even though, Kareena Kapoor has a perfect figure and knows a thing or two more than Katrina in the field of dancing, Katrina’s sex appeal can not be underestimated.

Salman Khan and David Dhawan fallen out completely

Salman Khan and David Dhawan fallen out completely
Bollywood Rock Star Salman Khan and Director David Dhawan might be called as the winning duo, but if the latest reports are to be believed, the two have fallen out completely.
Buzz is that Salman Khan is furious with David Dhawan for delaying the sequel of the hit film PARTNER. Salman is yet to get any update from David on that project. On top of that, David directed HOOK YA CROOK with John Abraham leaving his friend Salman Khan's project in the doldrums. Now, Salman Khan is in revenge mood.

Grapevine has it that Salman Khan is using his influence to kick David Dhawan out of a forthcoming film project that will have the star in the lead. Apparently, Salman Khan already conveyed his displeasure with David Dhawan to the producer and is making sure that someone else replaces him soon.

Salman Khan, who is known to harbour grudges for long has best friend Director David Dhawan on the radar this time. Well, let's hope Salman Khan's latest act is not the end of this JODI NO 1.

Winter Coats: Puffy & Quilted


Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving, and may all your turkeys turn out crispy. So I spent some time yesterday watching excited gaggles of ice skaters whizzing around NYC's Rockefeller Center Ice Skating rink, and I couldn't help but notice the many different styles of deliciously quilted puffer coats worn by natives and tourists alike. In case you haven't noticed yet puffy down coats are all the rage this season, and since there are so many to choose from I've done a bit of research and found some stunners which have caught my eye and which I must have!! Priced from high to affordably high-med (because that's what pretty coats cost these days), let's all pray together that these coats miraculously go on sale this crazy mad rush Black friday, and perhaps I'll see you at the shops....

Valentino 360 Silver Metallic Bag


And wouldn't you know it, I've finally tracked down the other infamous sparkly Valentino bag from Gossip Girl!!!
On Gossip Girl's Season3 Episode 7 "How to Succeed in Bassness" back in October, Jenny Humphrey attends Chuck Bass' new Club opening wearing some amazing flapper-esque clothes and toting a gorgeous silver sequined Valentino 360 bag, the same one in black which Blair ogles in the following episode "The Grandfather: Part II". The hard to find bag is perched oh so very prettily in Saks 5th Ave's Holiday fashion window display. Warning: Do not break glass!!
