Man Fashion: 2008 Valentine Gifts for Ladies

Well, right after New Year, what is the next bigger celebration? I would think this should be Valentine’s Day! Do you agree with me?

Valentine's Day is by far the most romantic of the holidays. Thus Valentine gifts such as Valentine Flowers as a token of love are as communicative and as eloquent as words, if not more. While red roses are a favorite of this holiday, they are also a lot of other flowers that you can choose from. Each and every flowers also have a different meaning by itself. For example red roses represent in love, pink roses represent happiness.

Man Celebrity Fashion: David Beckhman on New Year Eve

Here was the photo of David Beckham and his wife Victoria Beckham on New Years Eve. David is still attract most attention from the public whenever he go. I like his double-breasted coat, especially on him.

I am not a big fans of Victoria, I do like her styles on that day. Until now I'm still don't understand why she has been voted the worst dressed celebrity in an annual list of fashion disasters. Why??
I just did a quick search on the net. The closer (except the material and buttons) that I can find is from Josbank.com, Double-Breasted Camel Hair Topcoat with a regular price tag of $595.00.


What's more, Josbank.com is currently doing winter clearance, and all men clothes (business and casual) are giving up to 60% off. Even the above topcoat is now reduced to $297.50. (50% off)

Men Skincare Review: Clinique M Shave Aloe Gel

I just bought this skincare product from Clinique, highly concentrated with aloe vera and oil free, Clinique's M Shave Aloe Gel, to comforts skin during and after a shave.

According to Clinique's report, this gel is to transforms into a rich lather, softens and cushions even the heaviest beards for a smooth, close shave.

Usage: Just pump out the size of a 50 cents coin, work gel between palms and transfer lather to the face to cover the bread. Shave, then rinse blade under hot, running water to avoid razor clogging. For the smoothest, longest-lasting shave, shave twice in the direction of hair growth.

After used out for first week, it's really reduce the incidence of razor burn and blemishes, and helps dampen the beard area! :). I consider this as great deal with this pricing and the quality of the product.

Man Fashion: Moschino Spring/Summer 2008

2008 Moschino's Man Fashion Spring/Summer Milan fashion week focus on this stripe sweater. I personally like this red strip sweater very much, it match well with black color pants. This is likely go well with white color khaki too.

White is still the main stream color in 2008 Spring/Summer Men Fashion trend, it's matched perfectly with striking color like orange or simple yellow.

Man Fashion: Unshaven Styles

If you are admire the unshaven style and try to follow this man fashion style with unshaven look, then I suggest you think twice again. Alright, this is not suitable for every guy here, but it is in style if you can pull it off. The unshaven look.

I do admire the look on some guys, but I am not the biggest fan of it because if this is not maintain properly, this could turn out worst than what you expect. However, when done right, on the right face type and with proper grooming, it can lend a sense of mystery and “rough guy” look to even the nicest outfit - quite the lovely contrast.

So who can pull it off? If you are the guys with more square, or angular faces, this probably just perfect for you like George Michael. If you have a really strong jaw line, this will likely work for you. I would not suggest it for guys with overly round faces.

By the way, this is definitely not suitable if you are going for job interview or some office environments.

The Know-How

Simple, let your hair grow, but make sure it grows evenly, and keep it neat and clean. You don’t want to look like you just rolled out of bed and were too lazy to shave. You want to look like you made a determined effort to make a style statement. Here how to go about it, just get a beard trimmer with adjustable levels - similar to when you get your hair razored, another cheaper option get a comb and put it between the (ideally electric) razor and hair and just trim slightly to keep short.

The unshaven look still means you have to shave!

Sometime in order to achieve man fashion in style, you just require some efforts (not necessary money).

Man Fashion: Are you Interested In Modeling?

Just came across an interesting article about modeling over-50 category. Have you ever think about modeling when you are at the age of 50? The article proved it right that after you retired, you will probably get bored easily. So why not start to look for supplement income and maybe with a little fun too? You don’t need to be supermodel material to make money at modeling.

Have you even see those supermodel appeared in the arthritis medicine advertisement? Very unlikely. Most mature men and women don’t even consider starting a modeling career at this age. Many assume they missed the boat while they raised families and pursued other careers. The over-50 category has less competition than other areas of modeling, and the opportunities will continue to grow.

Models over 50 can be seen in TV commercials, print ads, catalogs, hair shows, stock photography and runway shows as well as appearing as Spokes models.

Some requirements for male Fashion models are 5' 11" - 6' 2" and wear a size 40 Regular to 42 Long suit. Men should be toned and well proportioned. Overly muscular builds do not properly fit the clothing. Clear skin and good teeth are required. There is a wide variety of acceptable looks. A man's fashion modeling career often lasts longer than a woman’s.

If you are interested in modeling, why not start to submit a note to the agencies state your interest. Your note should furnish as much information as possible such as contain your name, city and state of residence, cell phone number, height, clothing size and shoe size. I think is also ideal to include one close up photo of your face (smiling) and one full body shot showing your shape (in a swimsuit, leotard or well fitting clothing). Here are some of the well known modeling agencies: Wilhelmina, Ford, Gilla Roos and Cunningham Escott Slevin & Doherty

Be proud of your maturity. Don’t try to look too young, and never feel like you need to dress like a teenager. Mature models can do the same type of modeling as their younger counterparts.
