[I Bought] Grey Suede Winter Boots

November 26th, 2011

I was starting to get worried that I’m not going to find the right pair. Initially I was hoping for a pair of brown brogue shoes but i was disappointed not to have too many choices. The fact of the matter is, most of the boots that I found weren’t didn’t have fur lining.

So I found something that will (hopefully) keep me really warm this winter:

[I Bought] Dyed Blue Jeans

November 6th, 2011

These are not your ordinary blue jeans. It’s actually a pair that was dyed into a more prominent blue color, reason for which I bought them. :)

I kept looking over them and at the label to see if these are actually jeans or chino pants. I think they’re jeans but maybe you’ll disagree with me after looking at the photos below:

[I Bought] A Camel-Colored Pea Coat

October 23rd, 2011

My quest for a stylish “brownish autumn” continues. I’ve already purchased a pair of loafers, 2 belts and a wallet – all in different shades of brown. But I can’t really wear any of those when it’s chilly outside with my black leather jacket, can I? (Well, I can, but matching brown and black is tricky)

I needed a brown coat and H&M had just the one I was looking for: a camel coat. It has class, it has style and it stands out.

[I Bought] Brown Leather Belt and Wallet

October 12th, 2011

Since I just bought a pair of brown leather shoes, I had to get something to match them. While I had similar accessories in my wardrobe already, the problem was the shade of brown was not the same (or close).

Since we’re talking leather shoes, they should match the belt and the wallet which, of course should also be leather.

So I went out to this “hidden store” downtown and I bought…

I’ll be wearing them with: jeans and khakis
