If you want to say a proper fashionable goodbye to 2010 ,
Massimo Dutti for Men created a holiday Look book that will be a great fashion guide and inspiration for you.
Just notice the slim-cut suits, the shawl-neck cardigan and the patterned bow-tie.

Paint my soles!

Taylor Reeve is a graphic artist that will make you walk on your hands, just to keep your shoes safe! 
Her hidden pop art soles are her unique trademark that will make you forget everything about Christian Louboutin and his red devil shoes!

This pair is killing me!

House tour : Have a very merry Black&White Christmas



Who said that Christmas is only red
Jesper Moller Hansen [furniture designer & carpenter] managed to bring Christmas at his house with natural materials and monochromatic palette .
He made all the decorations in this house by himself.
Please notice that he replaced the actual Christmas tree with some (decorated) branches he found in a forest.

I really think this house looks so festive although it has only black and white in it. 
Enjoy!

I decided to name this style Onion Chic.

tip: The key to layering is keeping under-layers close-fitting. This keeps the look from being bulky and increases the comfort factor.
