MFM
Men’s Spring Bracelets
Trendoid Tuesdays only on MFM92.6

I LOVE accessorizing and this spring has some great accessory trends for the guys! It’s all about being eclectic and different this season with loads of beaded bracelets and African inspired styles!

Top Trends this Spring!

“More is More” with Multi Layered Bracelets

Multi beaded leather bracelets is a HUGE trend right now, it creates a really eclectic Boho inspired look! To put together this style you can either buy a few different wooden, beaded, bras, rope, and leather bracelets and layer them together to create one large bracelet or you can keep it simple by buying a multi bracelet pack that already has all the different bracelets together.

Leather Cuffs “Chic Edge”

Leather Cuffs are still trending this spring, make sure to get them in bright colours to match your spring style!


“Strong and Sturdy” Brass Bracelets

A new comer this season is Brass, form pendants to bracelets we will be seeing a lot of Brass elements! Keep this look simple and clean by wearing only one or two bracelets for a fresh alternative style.


African Braided Bracelets “Keeping it Local”

The African theme seems to be hitting the international scene at full force, luckily for us here in SA we can get all these braided and beaded African inspired bracelets at just about every street vendor!

Tune in every Tuesday morning to MFM92.6 for my Trendoid Tuesday update!

MFM
Men’s Spring Tend
Braided Belts
Trendoid Tuesdays only on MFM92.6

The hottest spring accessory for guys this year is the Braided Belt! This is a great item to have in your wardrobe because it can easily dress up or down your outfit…it also ties in perfectly with the Boho vibe we are seeing this season!

Here are my top choices for Spring 2011!

Thin Leather Braided Belts
Love this style with shorts! Tip: Buy a longer belt and tie a knot in the front for a more trendy style!

Dyed Leather Braided Belts
Dyed Leather always look stylish and will go great with a pair of Jeans! Tip: Go for real 
leather (sorry PETA) because it will last you a lifetime!

Multi Coloured Braided Belts
If you want to add some colour to your look then a multi coloured braided belt will be prefect! Tip: Keep the rest of your outfit neutral to make the belt stand out more!

Tune in every Tuesday for Trendoid Tuesdays only on MFM92.6!

Living in Couture
31 Rue Cambon Paris
Coco Chanel’s Apartment

For Coco Chanel, it wasn’t just about the little black dress, the perfume or the trademark pearls, it was in the lifestyle. The curtains in the lounge, the glassware on the dining table and the towels in the bathroom all meticulously designed to fit Chanel’s attention to detail. Chanel soon became less about the tweed suit hanging in the closet and more about living the life: the Chanel life.

Strategically located above the Chanel boutique, Mademoiselle Coco’s flat screamed pure indulgence. Considering she permanently lived in Ritz Paris, this apartment
 was solely a getaway for her and her guests.
The interiors draw influence from oriental handicrafts, Victorian wealth and Russian colours. Running along the royal theme, the colours are as rich as they can get, with splatters of gold, maroon, cream and midnight black. We see the infamous mirrored spiral staircase, from where Coco secretly watched all her fashion shows to witness the audience’s raw reactions.

This is definitely my kind of living, from the fine royal detail down to the endless pieces of couture that must have hung in Coco Chanel’s wardrobe!

MFM
Men’s Shorts
S/S 2011 & 2012
Trendoid Tuesdays only on MFM92.6

The hottest trend this Spring/Summer is Shorts…guys are showing some leg and showing off some new tends by pairing shorts with both formal and casual looks!

Here are some of my favorite styles when it comes to Shorts

Denim

Denim is and will always be a popular choice for pants - Denim Shorts are great because it is versatile and goes any shirt or look!

Semi Formal

Semi Formal Shorts are great to pull together a more “dressed up” look. When paired with a blazer and collared shirt you’ll look chic and on trend!

Hip-Hop   

The Hip-Hop trend is coming back with Shorts in bright and printed colours! This is a great beach or chilled look for easygoing guys!

Fashion Froward

The Fashion Forward style is all about Fashion and making a stamen, if you want to pull of this trend go for Shorts in bold prints or Shorts that has interesting style lines.

Form more Short trends check out my Metro Man Post on Style Scoop HERE
