G-Dragon in Saint Laurent - Hong Kong Press Conference

South Korean artiste G-Dragon held a press conference in Hong Kong last Friday to promote his concert. The performer from South Korea's super group BigBang wore an embroidered jacket from the Hedi Slimane designed Saint Laurent womenswear Spring Summer 2013 collection. The black trim around the jacket is made from little paillettes sewn together. He paired it with leather trousers and glittery Cuban heels also from the same label. Saint Laurent seemed to be his go to label these days, he wore pieces from the upcoming Fall Winter 2013 menswear collection for his press conferences in China and Taiwan recently.

Do we like this look on G-Dragon? I'm a little on the fence about it. I've been staring at the pic for a few minutes but can't really form a decisive yes/no opinion.

I do however love his glittery Cuban heels which gave him added height. You can shop the Saint Laurent boots online from Luisa Via Roma and Farfetch.

Director Michel Hazanavicius's Montblanc "TimeWalker Northern Hemisphere" Timepiece - Cannes Film Festival 2013

Actress Berenice Bejo and husband/director Michel Hazanavicius attended the premiere of 'Le Passe' at the 66th Cannes International Film Festival at the Palais des Festivals over the weekend. The French film director, producer and screenwriter is perhaps best known for his 2011 film, "The Artist", which won the Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Director at last year's Oscars. For the red carpet event, Michel wore a gorgeous blue tuxedo with contrasting lapels and matching bow tie. The director accessorised his look with an equally beautiful Montblanc "TimeWalker Northern Hemisphere" timepiece. The timepiece featured an embossed black calfskin leather strap with blue stitching, which cleverly matched their outfits.

Earlier in the day, Michel Hazanavicius was pictured at the Stars Lounge, and it gave us an opportunity to have a closer look at his timepiece. The silver coloured dial of the "Northern Hemisphere" watch featured the map of our planet as seen from the North pole,  The local time in the zone where the wearer is currently sojourning is shown by the central hands, while the flange around the dial bears the names of 24 cities, each of that represents one of the 24 time zones into which our planet is divided. Hence in one view, one can see the local time and the time in all 24 time zones around the world.

Love the timepiece with such a cool story behind it. And I feel it is versatile enough for both dressy and casual occasions. Very impressed with his choice of sunglasses. Orange frames are not something that is easy to wear, but he pulled off the look so nicely. Very good accessories choices.

Ethan Ruan [阮經天] in Raf Simons - Samsung Galaxy Taiwan Promotions

Promotional appearances in the far east seemed a lot more fun. Taiwanese artistes Ethan Ruan [阮經天] and 小S were pictured in Taipei recently to promote the latest smart phone from Samsung Galaxy. Ethan looked effortlessly stylish in a black blazer and white trousers combo with a Raf Simons t-shirt underneath. The event was cleverly styled, with the blue on Ethan's shirt, matching 小S's micro mini, and of course Samsung's colour of choice. They looked like they had so much fun, love it.

Christian Louboutin and Melita Toscan du Plantier attended the Premiere of 'Le Passe' (The Past) during The 66th Annual Cannes Film Festival at Palais des Festivals in Cannes, France. Christian wore one of my all time favourite shoes: the black felt/suede slippers with golden tassels. The gorgeous shoes were perfect for the red carpet at Cannes. Close up of the shoes showed the tassels were somewhat inspired by India, giving it a very royal and Maharaja feel. Oh I love the shoes so much.

Justin Timberlake - Torch Cannes 'Spinning Gold' Celebration

Justin Timberlake arrived in style to the Torch Cannes celebrating his upcoming film "Spinning Gold" during the 2013 Cannes Film Festival held at Torch at Vegaluna Beach Club in Cannes, France. Justin wore a beautiful light weight jacket, which I believed to be from Belstaff. I couldn't find an exact match, but the details around the snap buttons, collars and pockets appeared to be a cross between the Belstaff "Redborne" and "Seven" jackets. Maybe a jacket from the upcoming collection? I'm pretty sure it is Belstaff, if it isn't, it is too close for comfort. Love the very dapper look on Justin. Do you like Justin's style at Cannes?

Have a look at the Belstaff jackets and see what you think. You can shop the "Redborne" and "Seven", online from Belstaff.com.

Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan and Tobey Maguire attended the Opening Ceremony and 'The Great Gatsby' Premiere during the 66th Annual Cannes Film Festival at the Theatre Lumiere in Cannes earlier this evening. Tobey Maguire wore a black grain de poudre smoking tuxedo, cotton voile shirt and black silk bow tie, all from Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane. The suit is similar to the one he wore to last week's Metgala in New York.

Love Tobey Maguire, there's something about him I really love. Really can't wait to watch The Great Gatsby.

A rather toned down look from DiCaprio. Very much looking forward to the red carpet event later, and can't wait to catch the movie soon.

Richie Culver's Jimmy Choo "Byron" Suede Monkstraps Shoes - Dover Street Men's Store Opening, London

Jimmy Choo recently opened their new menswear store at No.35a Dover Street in London. We headed to their swanky shop yesterday evening for a few drinks, and checked out what's in store. UK based artist Richie Culver was also in attendance, dressed stylishly in a light brown mac for the London showers. Love his round bowler hat and those gorgeous brown suede Jimmy Choo "Byron" monkstrap shoes. (I wore a grey mac with brown suede shoes too, great minds?)



The new Jimmy Choo men's flagship store located at No.35a Dover Street is set in a historic Georgian building. The 1,200 square foot store spreads across two floors housing a complete assortment of Jimmy Choo men's accessories. Slick finishes of black marble and leather are complemented with textures of felt, velvet and tweed. Vintage furnishings provide a 1960s retro edge to the modern interior.

Wandering around the store, I picked out two of my favourite shoes:



Yes there's a shoe on my scorpion, but isn't that gorgeous? These "Sloane" red felt slippers with gold embroidered scorpions were made exclusively for their new store at Dover Street. Oh I like very much.
