Men's Fall 2013 London Collections

Let's catch precise to it, here are the reveals from day one including their ideas, my top rated looks, and… my most severe.

I will not talk about each display but I’ll go over the selections that get the most quantity of press and produce the media’s benefit.

Lou Dalton
Inspiration: Urban meets rural in a 1983 type of way Preferred Looks: These two below seem to emote a attractive sartorial sensation while keeping a fun advantage with the comparison patches and flap on the pockets.

Preferred Look: I experienced the lux blue shiny fabric but Lou… did you have to utilize so friggin much of it?

Topman Design
Inspiration: A trip to the top of the Himalayas.
Preferred Looks: Popped parkas and men’s dresses say it all.

Least Preferred Look: I like what they have ended with the parka’s this season but this one comes across all too ordinary for my preferences.

Meadham Kirchhoff
Inspiration: A 2012 Preferred Looks: Well… there was not a favourite… (I did not individually really like this collection) but I did discover these two looks quite wonderful in their own way.

Least Preferred Look: Among the rubbish and Nike footwear were… these two fellas… do not know what to say here except, I’m sure they have excellent personalities…

Richard Nicoll
Inspiration: Commercial, post-punk motivated essentials mixed with de-constructed neoclassicism

Preferred Looks: I passed away when I saw this print for men. It’s fresh and fun with a jab of messy junipers and a jolt of juiced-up jackals. Didn’t make sense? Encourage the alliteration on top of the print and you will be aware of… Or possibly you will comprehend it just as much as I comprehend most London, designers… not at all.

Least Preferred Look: Okay I said I liked the print but do not get crazy! And do not pair it with orange…

30 Long Exposure Photography

I always thought that long exposure photography was overdone to death and not even worth doing. That’s why I have never experimented with it much, but I still wanted to do a little research and make a collection of best Long Exposure Photography Examples.

I soon found out that I was wrong. It may be overdone, but good shots are incredibly rare and hard to find (this could also be due to my lack of searching skills). So my advice to you – don’t be turned off by the fact that everybody does it! Only few guys do it right.

Now, before you grab your camera and go out to take those beautiful long exposure shots, you may need some inspiration! So here are 30 Amazing Examples of Long Exposure Photography to get your creative juices flowing.

Great Video of a Hawthorne Hotel Wedding

I really love this wedding video.  It is set to a very romantic song, and has superimposed the "before" and after shots of the different stages of this wedding.  The same "angle" from the rehearsal and the actual ceremony and related shots.

It is very tastefully done, and so sweet it left me with a little bit of moisture in the corner of each eye!

Before and After Wedding Video

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Bryllup fra Mosjøen av Studio Sandra


Romantikk fra et Sensommer Bryllup

Rosa Eleganse fra Nord-Norge


Det hjalp å få tilsendt litt rosa kjærlighet på en kald februardag. Bildene er tatt av Studio Sandra, og er fra venninnen sitt bryllup i Mosjøen. Det viser seg at disse to fotograf venninnene, fotograferte hverandres bryllup, som foregikk to helger etter hverandre, i august ifjor. Anne- Kari og Johan Andrè stråler om kapp med solen, og brudens vakre kjole fra Pronovias, blir enda mer elegant ved siden av brudgommen, som stilte i Forsvarets staselige Gallauniform, under vielsen. Her er roser, tyll, perler og personlige detaljer i skjønn forening.



BRUDEN SELV SIER: Jeg planla bryllupet mitt til minste detalj, og i god tid. Jeg startet et år i forveien, og mitt tips til andre brudepar er å være tidlig ute, for å sikre deg fotografen du ønsker, lokalene du vil ha og skaffe det du trenger til dekor. Fotografen er det viktigste, fordi det er den/de som bevarer minnene dine for evig tid.

LEVERANDØRER: Bryllupsfotograf: Studio Sandra // Brudekjole: Pronovias fra Tessem Brudesalong // Blomster: Venninne av Bruden: Carina Grønning Hogstad // Antrekk Brudgom: Tessem Brudesalong // Festlokaler: Fru Haugans Hotel
