CAMERON TURNS ME ON

Oh yeah, so here I am, sitting in my old PC, having a visual orgasm with the new pictures of Cameron for V Magazine, and I thought HEY, this sh*t really needs to be posted in A Color, who cares it os going to take like 10 minutes for the internet to open, and all that, this is worth it!
So take a look at the Cameron Diaz for the cover of V Magazine (their issue #60, hooray for them) and the photos/editorial shot by Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott and styled by Panos Yiapanis.

Blue Side, for this collection of LV Paul Helbers decided to usea a simple blue, purple, yellow, white and beight colour palette, with an excelent result in exchange, a collection full of gorgeous bags (as usual) and lots of short shorts!

Everything is well done here, from the prints to the textures, romance was all over the place, and guess what: I'm in love with this collection, those jackets, those shoes, those cardigans, the prints!

Boys for Summer Vol. 2

Things got pretty good in Milan this past few days, with lots of shows,a nd lots of loveable collections.

Alexander McQueen
Is it possible for me not to love a collection made by this man? Well seems quite hard for what I've seen.
Simple clothes, Great cuts, and an excelent colour palette are the elements of his Spring Summer 2010 collection, all this with a touch of paint:

Moschino
Prints were really the thing for this collection, plaids, stripes and even chest prints were part of the collection, this is, indeed, one of the most creative collections of this season so far.
I'm loving those "crotch-flowers" pants:

Etro
Happy Clothes, is a very accurate description for this collection, Kean Etro sure knows how to put a smile on our faces, now go on and smile with me:

Tomorrow: Prada, D&G and Marni. (and many more)

Boys for Summer Vol. 1

Ok, so it's that time of the year all over again, Milan Fashion Week for the Spring Summer 2010 collections began yesterday and I'm already loving some of the collections so far.
Here are some of the best collections so far:
Bottega Veneta:
This is what a summer should be, the clothes, the bags, the shoes, the colour palette, the models (hehe), the styling, the hair, well everything. Now go and thank Mr. Tomas M. for this beatiful collection!

Burberry Prorsum:
Christopher Bailey, seems to never run out of creativity, with a very simple, yet very Burberry collection, he manages to get everybody crazy with every collection he makes, kudos for that Mr. Bailey!

Versace
Take the ugliness on Donatella, and you'll have what her latest collection has of gorgeous, so it's like a LOT, my favorite pieces of the collection were the strappy sandals and the crocodile print t-shirt, I'm so going to make one for me, myself and I (Beyonce who?)

Sorry in advance for those small images, couldn't find them any bigger, be sure to check the details section in menstyle.com ;)
Stay tuned for more,

Summer is here, and there

Carine decided to put a smile on our faces with the June/July issue of Vogue Paris, featuring (my beloved) Sasha, in a beach editorial shot by Bruce Weber and styled of course by her (Carine).
I'm loving the little butt "implant" that Sasha is working on the pictures it made me laught like so bad.
It's nice that she decided to include a new typography for the tittle of the ed too (for those of you who also check on the typographys on the editorials)

He definetely knows how to work those Prada Shoes
