LOOKBOOK | Pants-a-slouching

halfwhiteboy loose pants 01

I'm a firm believer in wearing pants with the right fit. The long and short of it is that it looks nice when your trousers have that tapered look, hugging you in the right places and yet leaving room where it should.

But sometimes, just sometimes, it's also nice to break away and just let loose.

Although my wearing loose-fitting pants here was born out of necessity--to conceal my biliary drainage bag--regardless, it's great to also wear something that's not restrictive, at least from time to time.

However, wearing something loose does not give us the excuse to look downright lousy. So if you're putting on loose-fitting pants, your top should be a little more snug. Conversely, you wear a loose top with slim-fitting trousers. Wearing something that's equally loose just doesn't look too good. There should always be some contrast. That's the general rule, but of course there are exceptions depending on an ensemble's style.

Now how soon do we get to Friday? I feel like wearing something like this again.

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.
