Still. The modelling evidence that the white shirt and blue jeans outfit don’t fade from fashion and that they’re still the evergreen of style, the lbd of casual dressing, is brought to you (today) by Eva Jay Kubatova. Don’t give up simple dressing, there’s still hope! (photo via)

This time, to maintain a sense of fashion equilibrium, it’s about a guy. A guy who’s walking around Harajuku in broad daylight wearing a silk red robe. Really red. Really silky and truly a robe. (the story continues right after the jump!)

To back up his style-ness, this bold mister who’s very au jour with the latest trends (yes, Red is the new Black, more so since we’re closing in on Christmas!), this young Japanese daywalker sports a truly vintage bag that says “Traders Bank – Kansas City, MO”. If you ask me, they used cryogenics back in the days and he woke up after all this time. In Harajuku! That’s more plausible than reasonably walking down the street with a robe on! Right?

This charming pink princess with perfectly curly hair (is that a wig? No, really, I’m jealous! I reasonably believe even Gaga would be jealous!) is what you should call a Hime Gyaru (a girl who dresses like a pricess). (the story continues right after the jump!)

I know I focused her blond curly hair above, now please switch your attention to her shoes…ahem slippers! It’s hard to believe she found nothing else to match her pink prom-ish dress so I’m compelled to conclude it’s on purpose! She’s wearing slippers for regular outside shoes! Now before you cast the style-stone, just think how marvelously comfy she must feel! Wouldn’t you? (photos via)

No, he’s not wearing any colorful scarf or riding a bike, nor he shortened his pants, but David Bowie looks perfect! Sporting a full-concrete-grey look, with black shades and a dandy umbrella, he’s the spilled image of a laid back, smart casual city look, isn’t he? (photo via)

Now the Sartorialist Strikes Back with a Times interview (freely translating that into How To Get On The Sartorialist: Critical Update!)

What is your favourite place/time of year to shoot?
Florence in January during Pitti Uomo [the men’s trade show]: it draws chic men from all around the world, becoming a cornucopia of styles, price points and tastes.

What makes you want to take someone’s photo?
I try to stay open to the moment. I’m usually just reacting to what I see, and don’t know what I like “best” about someone’s style until I sit down to view the photographs later. I’m always looking to be surprised or to see something familiar in a new way: it could be about colour or proportion or just a person’s posture.

What is your one piece of fashion advice?
Dress for your lifestyle. Even though I love suits and the craftsmanship that goes into them, I don’t wear them much because I’m always out shooting in the streets.

Bringing jewelry pieces to a larger-than-life size and place them in various urban landscape situations is by far a pleasant and funny way to redecorate the concrete city. (the story continues right after the jump with more images!)

Part of her graduation project, this Urban Jewelry moment is ready to be admired in Belgium, on the streets of Tielrode (right next to the Netherlands border) as special announcement of a special exhibition: “What’s news”. The exhibition is, of course, about jewelry and various jewelry designers and it takes place until November 8, 2009 at the Sofie Lachaert galerie, Tielrode, Belgium. No word if the Urban Jewelry installation will still remain in position after the exhibition ends. Wouldn’t it be great if more artistic initiatives like this one would populate our concrete jungle?

As it is a head ornament, naturally, I checked into the subject and it proves this too, like our beloved keffiyeh, has some cultural and religious implications (allow me to be fashionably shallow and not get into heavy detailing). Originally a hanky, the ever so charming fabric napkin used as romantic flirtation by Victorian women, the bandannas became so practical, everybody’s using one or at least has worn one in their lives! (the story continues right after the jump!)

The word itself means “to tie” and comes from the Hindi bandhana. You can see a paisley printed bandanna on our proud farmers and cowboys, worn around their neck, a drop of color in a sea of dust. You can see them worn by the firefighters, over their mouth and nose to prevent them from inhaling dust and fumes. You can see those brave soldiers wearing bandannas to prevent their sweat and blood from entering their eyes.

You can also see the bandannas worn by gangs members. But have you seen bandannas tied into a bow on a man’s head? If you haven’t, then you should know that this proud young man and his bow-bandanna happened during London Fashion Week (in London, naturellement). Also, if you’re thinking bigger is better, you can wear a hybrid hoodie-bandanna like this Nom*D pieces. Which bandanna upgrade would be best for you? (photos via 1, 2)
