Movember // Strikes Again

As October draws to a close we move into November which seems to be the most boring month ever stuck between Halloween and Christmas it leaves us all stressed, bored and uninterested. Thankfully November brings the rise of Movember which if you don't know what it is where have you been hiding?



We all love good facial hair and I guess Movember whilst serving a good cause, raising awareness just leaves us with some real beauties to look at (not that we need an excuse). Whilst growing facial hair the real purpose of raising money and awares for prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health. Last year they raised an amazing £92 million!

Check out their website for more information //here// which I have to say is looking amazing! Props to whoever designed it!



 

Hopefully through out the month i'll be able to bring you guys lots of great images of brilliant facial hair from all over London! Movember is such a great idea and especially being a guy it really reflects the importance of getting men to talk about health, I know myself guys aren't great about talking about these issues. 

I'll deffinitely be checking up on Movember and finding some of my favourite people and I'll be able to show them to all of you! Also if you know any people who's facial hair is impressive let me know  too!

H&M//Isabel Marant

H&M have done it again, another designer collaboration this time with Isabel Marant. Her design style has been called 'boho chic' and her collaboration is set for release November 14th of this year, with her releasing womenswear and for the first time menswear too. 

Some of her Spring/Summer 2013 Collection

I'm always speaking my praises about the Swedish retailer and how I think it's brilliant that they choose to work along side the designer to make a more afforable range without just ripping designs off. Personally I see it as a way of tackling the idea of fast fashion and designers having cheaper copies of their work produced by other companies.

Isabel will bring a more of a mainstream feel to H&M, especially following up after having a MMM collab. I've got a feeling that her collection will go down really well, being the perfect balance of luxury brands and highstreet. 



Here in this video Isabel talks about working with H&M and she says a few things I find really interesting. One of these being that she's looking at making something that really works in a lot of different ways, which will definitely appeal to the customer. She talks about how her work speaks more about her than anything can so I'm expecting the pieces to be really special.

I think Isabel Marant is an amazing fit for the brand, her style seems like it would work well in H&M stores and will appeal to the customer. Listening to her talking about her work to really cements that she knows what she wants to do, she knows what is expected from her customers too which is another brilliant aspect about her which I love.
