Event: Paul Smith SS 2013

What is better than celebrating Valentine's Day by viewing the new collection in the Paul Smith Store in Antwerp?
We had a fabulous evening: cocktails, fingerfood, fashion people, and, of course, an amazing new collection!
We didn't know where to look first, because we loved so many pieces. The store is also a shoe heaven!
 
Red, coral red, salmon pink, sienna, electric blue and optical or check prints can be seen on three-piece suits and although it's quite colourful, it looks really classy and chique. We noticed the recognizable maxi weekend bags and, of course, the ones with the iconic Mini Cooper on it!
 
We loved every single piece of this collection, actually... ;-)
Hope you guys loved our review.

Event: UPR The Big You #3 | FILIPPA K

Men Trend went to a bloggers event, called The Big You 3. A big shout out to UPR and all the brands that participated, we really had a great time! Every brand has a competition and we decided to participate in the one of Filippa K .
Why? Because we've adored this brand for years (and still do, obviously). It's a Swedish brand that's all about contemporary men's fashion and really, really good basics, yet still always with a certain edgy touch.
 
The competition is quite cool too, actually: create an outfit by yourself, with pieces from the new SS'13 collection, and if we win, our look will appear in the shop window of the store in Antwerp and Brussels!
 
Nino and Christophe of Men Trend created one outfit each.
Hope you guys like it and let us know your thoughts! It would be so cool if we'd win!
 
 
The first outfit is put together by Christophe of Men Trend.
The first thing I saw were the black suede boots! I'm a big fan of this type of footwear; they're definitely my favorite pair of this collection.
I kinda created my look around these boots, because I wanted it to look rock-'n-roll and grungy. I like that!
After that, I searched for the perfect black blazer. I liked this one a lot, because of the three buttons and the great fit. Combined with a grey acid wash T-shirt and a black pair of jeans, this outfit is ready to be photographed in Jardin des Tuileries during Fashion Week, posing next to Emmanuelle Alt, n'est-ce pas?
To top it off, throw on a cool scarf! Go with a black one with fringes.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This is the outfit created by Nino of Men Trend. A lot more summery and very European. These amazing loafers have a very light sand colour, that coincides perfectly with the green socks. Flaunt your striped socks and wear this great cream-coloured pair of jeans as a chino! It's not quite clear in the pictures, but underneath the dark green knitted sweater, there's a linen shirt in a slightly darker colour than the trousers. If it gets a little chilly outside, put on this camel single breasted trenchoat! I don't know why, but trenchoats have to be beige, right?! The brown leather backpack is just in case you need it: you'll at least travel in style!
Picture yourself drinking Pastis in the port of Nice... I know ;-)

Fashion Week: COLD METHOD FW '13-14

 
 Men Trend had the unique chance to go to the Cold Method fashion show during Amsterdam Fashion Week in the Netherlands. You can't imagine what a great experience that was! We really want to thank Dieter de Cock, head of design, for this opportunity and congratulate him with his awesome collection!
 
It's that time of year to focus on the AW 2013-2014 collections. This one is inspired by the singer-songwriter King Charles. It's a modern collection with a classic, dandy twist. It tries to bring out the best in you and make you stand out as a unique individual in this mainstream world. If you make the difference in your clothing, you're really somebody. They are not just clothes, they make you who you are and define your personality. Luckily, there are pieces for every kind of man and taste in this collection.
 
We personally love the suits and bomber jackets! Keep on rockin' Dieter de Cock! Love from your number one fans, Men Trend.
