Mykonos Attitude

Mykonos is a truelly magical place. Every corner of the island is so inspiring and i can't get enough of it. For those reasons I try every single summer to get back there and enjoy the Mykonian Vibes. For this post i chose a red-orange pair of pants from Massimo Dutti, a Ralph Lauren Shirt, Brooks Brothers Shoes and my Prada sunglasses. My latest addiction, Rolex Daytona, kept me in style. Take a look of the photos below and let me know ladies and gentleman what do you think about this look.

Walking in the streets of Milan. #MFW

Hello everyone!! A few days ago i had the chance to attend Milan Fashion Week and to be a part of well designed and executed fashion shows such as Etro, Missoni, Vivienne Westwood, Canali, Diesel Black Gold, Philipp Plein, Daks London and of course amazing presentations like Santoni Shoes, Bally and Ralph Lauren.

The outfit i chose for day 1 was  from Hackett London and my shoes of course from Santoni.

Belvedere Vibes

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen.

As i already have announced GDM is one of the nominees at the Marie Claire Blog Awards at the category man of style. Thought that competition we were lucky enough to learn more about the queen of spirits Belvedere. My favorite vodka and one of the spirits that i prefer the most. Wanting to share with you more about the values that Belvedere represents, how to use it and what to wear when you drink Belvedere i created this post. 

The cocktail that i chose to make is of course Bond's favorite Cocktail, which is nothing else than a Vodka Martini. The Vodka Martini actually began with the name Kangaroo, as Paul Clarke points out onSerious Eats. The cocktail was one of those that U.S. bartenders created with the then new spirit that was hitting the market in the 1950's. Many of the first vodka cocktails were just as this one, a gin cocktail with a vodka base. Whether it was the public's changing tastes, their desire for a less aromatic Martini at lunch, or simply the growing popularity of vodka in general, the Vodka Martini became so popular that today you almost have to distinguish which liquor you want when ordering a Martini.

Again, following suit with the Gin Martini, over the years the Vodka Martini began to lose its vermouth to the point that it often didn't even make it into the glass. Despite the contradiction, this is often called a Dry Vodka Martini. However, the simple ratio 2:1 of vodka-vermouth gives the drink some sort of depth and today's vodka market holds a variety of premium options that pair very well with dry vermouth. It would be reasonable that either Martini should have at least a hint of vermouth.

The next option for the drink is the garnish and bitters. Personally, I enjoy orange or aromatic bitters in my Martinis. The garnish could either be a light lemon twist or a few olives with either the standard pimento or stuffings like blue cheese or jalapeno.

The beauty of the clean Martinis is that you can customize them to your own style, taste, or even the mood you're in at any given time.

My own Vodka Martini recipe

1 1/2 ounces Belvedere vodka
3/4 ounce dry vermouth
2 dashes bitters (optional)
Lemon twist or/and 1 olive for garnish

Stir all the ingredients with ice in a shaker, then pour into a chilled martini glass or - if you have one - a champagne goblet. Add a lemon twist and one olive.

The perfect combination of style and sophistication

Hello guys! I am back with something new and fresh. I am back and for this post my partner in crime is no other than Tommy Hilfiger! Check out the photoshoot i did in Paris and let me know what you think.

The Hilfiger Denim Spring/Summer 2015 collection, Heartland, is inspired by an All-American road trip across the United States. Heading off the beaten path, the collection travels from desert and mountain terrains to stunning coastal vistas – visiting some of the most picturesque, unique and quirky spots in the country. This exploration of America’s midland embraces the outdoors to the fullest, resulting in surplus, maritime and military influences combined with Hilfiger Denim’s signature rock ‘n’ roll twist.

From the entire collection this blue suede bomber jacket really stood out to me and i had to have it. It's the perfect combination of style and sophistication! I can wear it during day and night and never be out of style! Check the entire collection and my feature at Tommy Hilfiger's official site here.

Tod's Spring/ Summer 2015 Aesthetics

Today we have the opportunity to share with you some italian menswear aesthetics by Tods. We both fell in love with the Spring/Summer 2015 Collection, so we decided to create some images together featuring pieces from the collection. We got the opportunity to shoot under the light of the talented photographer Julien Thiverny on the stunning terrace of Le Pavillon de la Reine Hotel in le Marais Paris. 

The Footwear collection includes a big variation of loafers in monochromatic shades to colourful ones of red, yellow and blue. Bags are stately and masculine in beige and blue leather and come as carryalls or plumper briefcases for work. Finally, belts, bracelets and wallets conclude the leather goods in more shades of blue. For more information visit now the official Tod's site and find out more masterpieces. 

Tommy Hilfiger Peoples Original Collection

Tommy Hilfiger and I are pleased to announce the launch of People’s Place Originals Collection. Its name and overarching inspiration pay homage to People’s Place, the first store Tommy Hilfiger opened as a teenager along with two friends in his hometown of Elmira, New York. For Spring 2015, the collection is influenced by Tommy’s lifelong passion for music, iconic rock-and-roll imagery, and Hilfiger Denim’s “prep with an edge” spirit. The pieces like the one that i am wearing reference the eclectic spirit of New York City’s music scene in the ‘70s, from album cover art to tour posters, celebrating a sense of individuality and reflects some of the iconic imagery that’s at the heart of rock music.”

I am lucky enough to already have the best T-Shirt from the collection. I wear it and feel like I just came out of my favorite band’s concert. There’s an easygoing  attitude that comes with it. Plus, grey is one of my favorite colours. I styled it off with my favorite biker jacket and jeans was the obvious  way, right? It’s an all-day, simple outfit that combines all-time classic items like your favorite pair of old, washed-out jeans, the second-hand biker jacket that you just had to have from that open-air market somewhere in Europe and a t-shirt that’s about cool music and having fun. Top that off with your favorite wool beanie for the cold days and it’s a go! Also remember, denim and tshirts will always be ‘a thing’! One last thing! Make sure you choose your favorite piece from the People Place’s Collection while listening to David Bowie’s ‘Life in Mars’! You just have to!

Join our conversation n Facebook, Twitter and Instagram using #HilfigerDenim and visit now tommy.com or tommy.com/socialhub to learn more about the collection

The People’s Place Originals collection will be available at Hilfiger Denim locations in Europe, North America, Asia, and Latin America, and on tommy.com from February 2, 2015.

Milan Fashion Week FW 2015/16

Milan Fashion Week for me was all about tailored classic collections. I attended many shows like Etro, Missoni, Canali, Daks, Phillip Plin, Tods, Santoni, Trussardi, Dirk Bikkembergs, Bally and many many more. Every season i am more and more impressed by the creativity that those designers have and the different points of views.
