That Loving Feeling
Yesterday I decided it was time to watch Top Gun for the 3999th time, so that explains this post.

Whiskey Rocks!
I am not a big drinker myself, but this would be a nice x-mas gift if you know somebody that does. Simply freeze the stones then add to your favorite spirit to create a chilling effect that leaves neither odor or flavor.
The Tuck-in
Tuck your pants in your boots (at least when the boots are high enough). Looks rugged and utilitarian.
Dries van Noten S/S 2011
Do it yourself denim by Dries. When I was 17 (13 years ago) I customized a few of my denims with bleach like this. Again it proves that "what's old today, is new tomorrow".
3DD: A 3-D Celebration of Breasts
What's better than a book filled with breasts? Yep, breasts in 3D.

My Rugged 211
From Minoru Onozato, editor of Japan's Free and Easy magazine, My Rugged 211 features the 211 wardrobe favorites from the underground style legend's amazing archive.
Camo
Bought this A.P.C. camo jacket from Ebay (read: cheap). When it comes to wearing camo, there's a fine line between it looking fashion or looking Wu-Tang. I prefer to dress up this jacket with some cleaner items, like raw denim and dress shoes.

For the girls...
Girls, if you like this, you better buy a ski mask too, because you would have to rob a bank! What you're looking at is the Pamela Love Talon Cuff.

Time to get practical!
Winter has arrived. Time to gear up and bring out the heavy artillery. My answer for the snow: Acne Boots with Vibram sole.

Rolex Explorer ref. 1016 (from the 70's)
Did you know that this is the original James Bond watch and that author Ian Fleming owned only one watch in his life which was, yep you guessed it, a Rolex Explorer 1016.
Leverage this with the story of the Rolex Explorer watch being worn by one of the two explorers climbing Mount Everest for the first time and you have an idea of how iconic this watch actually is.
I sold my Bell & Ross and am saving up for my own 1016.

Antique Dutch tiles
Today when we were shopping in the city, we came across this building that they were renovating. I don't know for sure if they were keeping the tiles. Would be a shame if they got rid of them.

The Inoue Brothers
The Inoue Brothers was founded in 2004 by Japanese brothers Satoru and Kiyoshi Inoue born and raised in Copenhagen. They're a design/art studio based on a common love for two cultures, Japanese sensibility and Scandinavian simplicity.
Finally
Finally I've got my Mark McNairy's in. At first I ordered the wrong size and had to return these, so it all took a bit longer. The laces you see on mine don't originally come with this model, but Mark McNairy send them to me, because I liked them so much. Thanks Mark!
