I was in awe when I saw Balenciaga's Fall RTW Collection. The collection is romantic, elegant, luxurious and very chic. Along with the fierce footwear Nicolas Ghesquière designed for Balenciaga, draped skirts are key pieces in the collection. The skillful draping of silk to create the silhouettes is impeccable and precise.
There are a variety of draped skirts available for fall. From minimalist to avant garde. The key to making a draped skirt for you is the fit. Ideally, high-waist and above-the-knee length. Try not to overdo the draping, you might end up like you're wearing drapery.

McQ by Alexander McQueen Checked Draped Skirt $220.50, Balenciaga Print Draped Skirt $1,105.00, French Connection 'Rollin Skirt' $168.00
Opt for plain black, gray, simple pattern fabrics paired with tall boots for day. Soft pastels, bold prints goes fabulously with ankle boots, booties worn with tights for night.

A friends of mine asked me what swimwear are trendy this summer. Men are lucky to have a few options and I told him that there's not necessarily a 'trend' this summer, just make sure that the swimwear he choose compliments his body type and stay away from speedos!! Color and prints are crucial. Here are some suggestions for you guys out there. And don't forget flip flops!
For those daring guys, if your planning on wearing bikini cut swimwear pick dark colors or better yet try going for square cut trunks or shorts-like swimwear.

| Balenciaga Men's Bikini $124.00 YOOX | Just Cavalli Trunks $98.00 YOOX |
Pick colors that are bright and patterns suited for the season and when in doubt go for board shorts.
