Strap Billfold from Black Fleece: Things I Have

Well my CdG zip around wallet fell apart a while back, I reverted back to the Goyard credit card holder, and I have been on the hunt for a new wallet to take its place. 

I tried out a few including this bright one from Dior, and this cube print from Pierre Hardy, but none of them seemed right. 

Then I came across this strap billfold from Black Fleece. Not that I need more accessories from this Thom Browne designed line in my possession, but I couldn't get it out of my head. 

With a french calf lining, pebbled outer, and elastic strap in the quintessential Browne red, white, and blue. It has plenty of room for cards and cash, and fits easily in my back pocket.

Needless to say I took it home and have started using it... so far so good! Check it out along with other accessory offerings from Black Fleece. 

Wallet from Dior: Things I Want

Despite how it may seem, I didn't buy everything I wanted while in Paris last weekend. This Dior wallet caught my eye at Printemps and it took a lot of willpower, but I left there in the case, to add to my Want list.

I'm in need of a new wallet, since my Goyard card holder isn't large enough and my CdG zippered pouch has ripped.

This one had enough room for cards and cash, and I loved not only the bright color but the ridged design.

Hopefully I'll grab it soon!

Dior Couture: Things I Love

So this is a little diversion from my usual menswear posts... but every so often I have to highlight things that I love. And I am (again) loving what Galliano has done with Dior Couture. Just amazing.

There continues to be such a disciplined aesthetic, where you would know any of these fantastic creations were Dior, should you see them walking down the street. Okay, so it's couture and you won't see it on the next Tommy Ton post... but still, you get the point.

I had to share my two favorites, both very different, but both involving a lot of feathers.

I strongly suggest you check out the rest of the show at Style.com... you will not regret it.

Dior Couture Fall 2010: Things I Love

So the Fall 2010 Couture shows just happened in Paris... Givenchy, Armani, Chanel, Elie Saab, and more. But I think hands down the most amaaaaaazing collection was from John Galliano for Christian Dior. Amazing.

The whole collection was floral (as was the set) and you got inspiration of petals and colors and textures. The models had their heads wrapped in cellophane (like a bouquet perhaps?). And their hair was flipped and high and beautifully styled.

I've pasted a couple of my favorite looks below:

Total brilliance!

Things I Want: Dior Homme High Tops

I've had a thing lately for high tops (umm, prior post about my new Alife kicks!) and was checking out some rockin' Lanvins at the Webster in Miami.

Today though I saw these from Dior Homme and I love the wrap around laces and the height of the shoe. Very cool and makes me want some skinny jeans that I can tuck inside!

Now due to the cost these are definitely on a *wish* list... but here's to hoping!
