“Louis V” is his name!
Louis V has a swagger like no other. He seems to always be a step ahead with his line of clothing. It speaks of enriching material with sleek looks. Coming down the runway there is always a demand in the middle of the floor which makes his style the focal point of the fashion industry. As we know Louis V has always been popular in every community we can think of. From the urban/hip hop world to the upscale communities. Spring 2008 was marked as the year Louis V feels there will be no competition. The colors in this line exude the reflections of a clear sky along with the cherry oak wood color of the forest. Appealing to the eye he makes the clothes flow as if they are weightless but makes them fit like a second layer of skin. Every outfit is accented with a bag that shows class and maturity. Matching the burnt oranges with the chestnut browns, also the sky blues with the browns along with the cream colored pieces lets you know that he is in charge and loves to stand out. From the button down dress that seems to blouse the body with its material to the straight-legged pants that fell together alongside the body. Sometimes forgotten are the shoes that are matched with the ensemble but Louis V made a comfortable statement by adding the sandals which are very stylish and right for the occasion.
A Fashionable War

“Wow” this 2008 the fashion industry collides with the TOMB RAIDER staring John Galliano. His trends are very unique, and have their own style. Excitement takes over as you view the line of clothing. It is very much urban meets gothic without the darkness. The style is very masculine yet grungy. Not in a bad way but in a grungy good way. Throughout the Spring line he manages to put in a sleek suit with a nice form fitting shirt that compliments the male physique. The clothing stands out with its unlimited amount of pockets and buckles with straps going along the sides and across the body. From the coats and jackets to the baggy pants the pieces exude a military ambiance. From the satin bondage pants and taffeta coats to the multi-pocketed nylon military jackets. No mistake in what point he strives to get across. If you always felt that our country’s military uniforms were something you took pride in then you can sample one of the pieces in this collection and get a taste of what it would feel like. If you want to enjoy what you wear while having fun but want to stand out and be different, go snatch some Galliano pieces up and live life to the fullest.

Proud To be Metrosexual
Metrosexual : A heterosexual man whose lifestyle, spending habits and concern for personal appearance are likened to those considered typical of a fashionable, urban, homosexual man.
Ok readers lets be realistic here, a man would want to be considered a metrosexual rather than a fashion faux pas or misfit right? Well I take that back, men sometimes have other objectives lol. Just because a man is seen carrying a messenger bag, worries about his looks, takes every chance he gets to improve his appearance, shops, dines and drinks fine wine, does not make him less than a man. That just makes him someone who has a great sense of taste, style, and hygiene. A little pampering never hurts and it goes a long way. Who said women should have all the fun? Just to name a few mets (metrosexuals)you have Ne Yo, Sean Diddy, Ryan Seacrest, Usher Raymond, and lets not forget Kanye West. He is number one on the list! You all know if Kanye does not win an award that he is nominated for he will throw a fit. These are men that I picked so if you dissagree umm…….. you might want to get over it. MEN embrace life with style and let no one tell you any different.
How to tell if you are a METROSEXUAL:
1) If all you can do is think about shopping for clothes all day and think how good you would look in them
2) Every time you walk past a mirror you have to view yourself at least 3 different times
3) If you go to have a spa treatment more than 2 times a month
4) Feeling sweat on your body makes you cringe
5) You can not imagine a day with out your hair styling products
6) You shave more than just your face. You also exfoliate and moisturize
7) You have over 2 dozen pair of shoes, multiple sunglasses, and carry a messenger bag, tote, etc. everywhere you go
