Burberry Prorsum Menswear SS13 - Milan video
At the menswear Milan Fashion week for SS13, Burberry Prorsum collection was awash with colourful metallics ranging from subtle touches of bright blue peeping out from the back of turned up collars, suave silver shirts to an unmissable neon pink trench coat. But is wasn't all metallic bling as the more muted blends of browns and caramels graced patterned shirts and bomber jackets.
What did you think of the music choice? The 'Crying' song gave me a bit of a headache.

all eyes may be on Cristiano Ronaldo....but from the below shots, Gerard Pique
could definitely give him a run for his money!!!

J Shoes launch Ltd Edtion Bowden Boot
British heritage Footwear
Brand J SHOES are set to launch a new Limited edition Boot as part of
their AW12 Collection.
The
Bowden Boot is made using vintage army blanket fabric. The concept being to find a material that was unique yet sustainable, no longer used in its original industry and to give it new life.
Designed by J SHOES
Head of Design, Nick Drury, the Bowden is the first in a series of special
designs for the brand.
“We wanted to incorporate an
interesting repurposed material outside of the norm. I came across army
blankets online and bought what I could to create this style. We then matched
the material with contrasting laces and soft kudu leather to compliment.” said
Drury.
As well as the army blanket
fabric, J SHOES have also partnered with Dainite, a historic sole
manufacturer, famous for its studded rubber soles, which have been made in
England since the 1900s. The factory is located in Market Harborough just minutes
away from where J SHOES began and the company has an excellent
reputation in the industry as being one of the best in sole manufacturing.
The
boots also have a Goodyear welt construction, which is a traditional method
allowing the wearer to re-sole the boots repeatedly -- yielding decades of wear
and an even longer life for the boot.
Remember these are limited editions and only 200 of
the style have been made worldwide!!
The Bowden
Limited Edition will be available from July 2012 at www.jshoes.com and exclusively at AUTHOR
London.
