Guest Post: Some Food for Thought

The Stylepilot.com, a site designed to help men navigate fashion online and discover which styles and items to buy, has shared with me results of a men’s fashion survey which they have conducted recently. The survey quizzed 1,000 men and asked them about their interest in fashion and how much they rely on their partner’s opinion when they buy or wear clothes.

Here are some of the key interesting statistics:

Women most often help pick out clothes for other people’s parties, meetings, work and office parties
Wives buy clothes for 49% men, Mums 32%
27% of men say their partners influence their decision on what to wear and 30% advise on what clothing doesn't match
32% men trust their partners judgement in terms of fashion, 29% say partner knows what looks good on them, 27% say partner has a better eye for how things look
Most popular clothing partners buy for men: Socks (42%), Underwear (41%). Shirts (35%)
Up to 46% men sometimes rely on partner to pick out clothes so they don’t look scruffy or out of place at work (Q20)

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in Miu Miu Boutiques throughout our region.
