You have to hand it to Zara; when it comes to lookbooks, they’re always on point. Topman can learn a thing or two from them – just look at their rival’s recent lookbooks, click here and here. Now in comparison, the clothing and lookbook are so much more simple. That’s what menswear is to me, complex simplicity. Let the silhouettes, fabrics and cuts do the talking. Not the legs of the MALE MODEL, ey Topman? Allow the pum pum shorts for men. Zara have gone down the more sartorial route with casual and smart-casual looks. Definitely a lot more preppy than casual though, more on the reverse.

…salad *immature laughter* gets me every time! Yin Eats is back, went on a bit of a slump in recent weeks with countless number of Pret baguettes being bought. The lazy option. I ended up going to a healthy eating spot Tossed today, on that healthy hype – sort of. Yang recommended this place to me a few months back, so finally decided to check out what was so special about it. I’d always walk past it, put off by the name haha. Ended up getting the Yin salad, fully customised by one self. Sort of sounds wrong and no they didn’t toss it for me o_O More on the reverse.

Unfortunately for Marni it was always going to be hard for any brand to follow the huge success of the H&M and Versace collaboration. Although well publicised this new collaboration just hasn’t got the same enthusiasm and buzz surrounding it’s impending release however for us who live and work in the blogosphere it is still pretty news worthy. Hardly overloaded with pieces that scream BUY ME NOW the collection is a toned down and subdued contrast to its Versace predecessor. Peep the lookbook when you read on.

This might as well be called @imDJB‘s post! He’s found some real quality songs for y’all on the flip reverse. That Diplo-produced song is definitely in there, you know which one I’m talking about. Baby-making music. Have a listen!

I’m exactly a week late with this, I blame my sickness and the laziness caused by it. Better late than never, right? Olan debuted his latest motion picture, another masterpiece for up and coming rapper Brewer. This one isn’t as fancy as the Question’s video and it doesn’t need to be. Sometimes less is more and honestly with a location like this, you didn’t need extensive colour grading and cutaways. Though I do love the increased clarity! adds a crispy finish to the video. The story behind the Olan’s filming process is pretty funny, hop on after the cut for the video and more.

It’s fair to say my gaming days are long gone, at least for this part of my life. Once in a while I do relapse, for a few days – like I did over Christmas with Uncharted 3. Completed the game in 3 sessions; the last session started 11am and ended at 2am. Yikes. Portable gaming is one option for folks on the go but that’s an extra bit of weight to carry around. Sony‘s next handheld console Vita hits the stores in just under week’s time on the 22nd. Am I excited by it? No not really. The advert is incredible, if you’re a gamer – you’d appreciate. The ad takes us on a journey through people’s gaming experiences in everyday situations, descending in and out of game-like scenarios from FIFA to battlefields and boxing matches. Will you be buying?

YES! Finally, iMessage has arrived for the Mac. This is a great news for me, I’m not very fond of typing on my iPhone. Auto-correct and my lack of touch screen skills make it hella difficult to type on there, much prefer the full QWERTY keypad on my Blackberry. iPhone is my social networking phone; has all the functionality in the world. iMessage isn’t BBM – at least I don’t think that was Apple’s aim and definitely not the way I use it anyway. However I do like having the option of replying to my iMessages/texts via my mac; instead of pausing what I’m doing, picking up the phone and typing a message out, all I have to do is type it out on here and click send. Simples. More on the reverse.
