10 FALL FASHION OUTFITS THAT’LL MAKE YOU TURN HEADS

When the leaves start to change and that cool breeze hits, it’s pretty apparent that the familiar autumn feeling has finally arrived.
Aside from the changing weather, there’s nothing better in the fall than the fashion. This is the best time of year to pull out those comfortable sweaters, oversized jackets and rich autumnal colors.
Even as a young professional you can wear nice sweaters to the office.
If you’re currently lacking fashion inspiration for the season, keep reading to find out how you can easily kill the fashion game with these 10 timeless fall fashion outfits.


ORANGE STREET STYLE
One of the very first fall fashion outfits you’ll want to recreate is the dark orange bomber and grey outfit combination. This ensemble is cool, easy to wear and appropriate for casual occasions.
Wearing grey on grey is a unique style a lot of people don’t think to pull off. The key to wearing this getup, is to break it up with a colorful jacket, such as the dark orange one above.
Both colors are extremely appropriate for autumn, but are paired together in an unexpected way.
This look is also a nice twist on the traditional black & white street style we are used to seeing. It can even be used as an easy way to transition your wardrobe for the fall.
Check out where you can find the best deals on street style attire.


WARMTH WITH STYLE
The black on black jeans and turtleneck combination is a classic fall fashion attire.
What truly makes this outfit unique however, is the use of the turtleneck instead of a traditional black t-shirt, as well as the color combination.
The contrast of the black outfit with the camel coat marry seamlessly, as the colors compliment each other this time of year.
The upturned collar and style of the jacket against the turtleneck also add a little bit more edge to the look.
Additionally, the suede jacket does a great job of highlighting one’s figure and elongating the neck. This is truly a muted way to look high fashion, timeless and elegant.


EDGY FOR FALL
This outfit is a go-to if you’re interested in wearing a fully edgy look. This black on black outfit will be guaranteed to turn people’s heads, as the combination of the beret, Dr. Martin’s and cross-body bag make a jeans and t-shirt outfit, look offbeat.
The lose appearance of the leather / suede jacket also gives the overall attire a casual, nonchalant feel.
That jacket definitely completes the look and is what brings this edgy outfit to the next level.
Check out which accessories every guy needs in his closet to pull an outfit together.


SUIT UP WITH CLASS
If you’re one to wear a suit everyday, make sure to rock a beautifully rich, navy blue one for the fall. This color is not only appropriate for this time of year, but it flatters a lot of men’s skin tones, is extremely modern and pops nicely against a white dress shirt.
Pair the whole look with the best suit accessories, such as silver tie clip, and you’ll look sharper than anyone at your office.
You can also style this stunt suit with a chunky metal watch and a pair of killer sunglasses (the Ray Ban Clubmaster are very nice on most men).


COOL AND CASUAL
When the colder seasons roll around, most of us enjoy staying in, getting comfortable and feeling cozy at home. This white t-shirt and light wash denim outfit is perfect for just that.
The combination is such a classic outfit, that it’ll keep you feeling comfortable and looking trendy at the same time. You’ll totally be killing fall fashion at home in this ensemble.
By the way, I created a great an easy guide to help you never spend hundreds to look expensive again. Here it is: How to Look Expensive.


SMART CASUAL IS KEY
It’s no secret smart casual is my personal favourite style on men. It’s elegant, classic and truly a put-together look. You can rock business casual this fall by switching out your summer linen blazer, for a deep purple, checkered suit jacket instead.
This blazer paired with beige pants and camel leather loafers is an awesome color contrast for autumn, that’ll keep you looking classy all season long.


SWEATER AND A BLAZER
Much like the previous look, this is also a smart casual outfit as well. This attire is a great transitional one from the summertime.
Despite beige and white being summer colors, you can get away with this outfit in the autumn simply by switching out your polo, for a crew neck sweater. This way, you can easily pull-off this summer inspired look in the fall too.
Match the look with an elegant pair of boots, and you are set to kill fall fashion.


EDGY AND BUSINESS CASUAL COLLIDE
What I love about this outfit is how it merges two styles together: business casual and edgy. This creates an unexpectedly unique look.
The base of the outfit is quite contemporary with the t-shirt and trousers combination. However, the addition of the leather jacket and dress shoes make the look a little more rough.
This style is great if you like switching things up and are experimenting with your clothing.
Check out how you can merge street style and class.


COMFORTABLE AND CHIC
If you want a simple, yet appropriate fall look, then this is the perfect outfit for you. It’s classic, elegant and suitable for any gentlemen looking to impress this season.
Although the combination of the sweater and the chino pants is predictable and very common, the color pairing is what will make you stand out of the crowd.
You can’t deny the dark orange knit merges well with the beige trousers. Not to mention, it’s a color combination a lot of people don’t think of trying out. You can be sure to kill fall fashion in this safe, yet colorful attire.


FORMAL WEAR
Last but certainly not least, formal wear. I couldn’t do a fall fashion outfits inspiration article without including a tux.
Although they are worn all year long, they are especially appropriate in the fall with all the holiday parties coming up.
A tux is the epitome of elegance and will definitely make you look amazing for any black tie event.
Check out this article on how you can complete your tux and look expensive.


Twenty Pictures of Cyclists Commuting on Boulevard du Palais Paris

Peak Cycling in Paris - Get on ya Bike!

Cycling in Paris? Well sadly I admit I did not manage to straddle a saddle and go cycling through Paris myself, although I certainly would have liked to. Although I have not had a bike for the last few years - insert sad face - cycling has been my primary form of transport for most of my life; so it was with much interest and both a cyclist and a photographers eye that I  paid considerable attention to the style of bikes I saw being ridden and the personal style of many of the people I saw riding those bikes. And as a rider from Australia where cyclists are sadly viewed as a menace, road-kill and potential cash-cow.. it was truly great to see the wide cross-section of people choosing a bike as their means of transport to get from point A to point B. It's also nice to see people free to ride without a helmet - I read recently that many European countries have introduced a law where if there is an accident between a car and bicycle the driver of the car is automatically at fault; which is the opposite of the law here in Australia I believe. Perhaps this is one of the reasons people can ride without fear for their safety; though having competitive cycling as the #2 sport throughout Europe I think means your average Madame and Monsieur are very bike aware anyway. It seems too that age is no barrier to getting on your bike, nor is fashion a problem, wear what you like. The bikes? I must say I was happy to see what I took to be an inordinate number of vintage 1980's frame sets; it seems you can't beat an Iron Horse after all. Of course the 20,000 Vélib bikes certainly made their presence felt too and next time I am in Paris; I will certainly be taking one for a spin. So here you are, 20 views of cyclists commuting along Boulevard du Palais just after 6 pm, 28°C while I enjoyed a lazy beer at L'annexe - I didn't even rise from my café chair to get the shots! If only things could be so civilised back home.

Santa's Gimp and the Amazing World (that was) Rock Photography, with Tony Mott.

Photography (that was), what a strange little blog title especially since Mr Tony Mott is still a photographer. Why the "that was"? Well because, digital photography, of course! In the lead up to this event on the 22nd of November 2015 I was reading how Tony took a year off to help look after his newborn twins; and when he took this photography sabbatical he had 182 rock mag clients on file that he sold pictures to. A year later there were just 22, and now only 3 of the original 182 left! Now of course people are as passionate about music as ever, and as passionate about rock photography as ever.. But it's all gone online, it's getting shot-and-shared by amateurs for free; and let me tell you; it's hard to make a living working for free, Q.E.D. this blog.Santa's Gimp? Lexi Land "Rattlesnake" performance, photographed by Kent Johnson.
But great Rock 'n' Roll photographer that Tony is, he was not going to launch his A-Z of Rock Photography book on a low note, hell no; it was going to be rock-and-roll all the way with way more than just a nod in the direction of "your momma won't like it" :-) hell no - HELL NO! I ask you, what's wrong with kids today? All signing up for frequent flyer points and all that consumer loyalty shit and a free cup of coffee - You know REBELLION - is still the only cool gig in town - stop nerding, lets get back to ROCKIN'... Scroll on, because here are the players on the night.

SASHES AND TIARAS.....Miss World 2015 National Costumes Highlights from Dances of the World Auditions




Costume Couture: National Costumes from the 2015 Miss World "Dances of the World" auditions (Clockwise, top to bottom) Miss Bahamas, Miss Myanmar, Miss Venezuela, Miss Turkey


All Photos here and below courtesy of MissWorld.com



The 65th Annual Miss World Beauty Pageant kicked off last week in Sanya Hainan Island, People's Republic of China. The finals of the 2015 Miss World will be on December 19th. Coincidentally, the other International beauty pageant "biggie", the Miss Universe 2015 pageant finals will occur the following day, December 20th--in Las Vegas Nevada USA. So, in terms of beauty pageants and beauty pageant followers, that will be a big weekend! For this year's Miss World, over 100 contestants from all over the world are vying for the coveted title (minus Miss Canada World who was not allowed to enter China).





Costumed Auditions: Events leading up to the Miss World 2015 Finals on December 19th began last week with one of the first ones being the Auditions for the "Dances of the World" where many of the contestants donned their National Costumes---it's become a fun version of the traditional National Parade of Nations. Some of the contestants might change their costumes for the Final night but here is a sneak peak at their national costumes via these "Dances of the World" auditions...



South America, Central America:







Miss Brazil World Catharina Choi: Festive, very Rio Carnival-like costume with bright Igor Stravinsky "The Firebird"-like styling. She said it is inspired by the birds in her country. Of course it is. I could definitely see Catharina in a Carnival float in this costume.






Colombia Maria Alejandra Lopez: I love this bright, fun costume worn by Miss Colombia World. It was designed by Edgar Perez and represents a "fantasy" creation of the Queens of the Barranquilla Carnival. It shows images of different representations of the Colombian people, the bright carnival-like colors and the shape of the oversized skirt hints at the iconic Colombian Sombrero Vueltiao (Vueltiao Hat). Very impressive.





Ecuador Camila Maranon: Camila's costume is very traditional in terms of its folkloric styling, featuring the yellow, blue and red of her country's flag.





Venezuela Anyela Galante: Anyela's costume--also folkloric in its design--was inspired by Teresa Carreño, Venezuelan pianist, singer, composer who was a very influential figure in her country. The gown is very intricate with hundreds of sequins, pearls and layers upon layers of gathered trim--in fact 500 meters of "bobbin lace" (encajes de bolillo). The costume was designed by Venezuelan designer Nidal Nouaihed.







El Salvador Marcela Santamaria: Marcela looks quite chic and serene in her national costume featuring an emerald green tiered skirt, lace edge trim, a lace mantilla headpiece, golden midriff, ivory lace top section and lovely depictions of native women in the bottom tier of her skirt. I especially love her very model pose.

Chile Fernanda Sobarzo: Fernanda wears a Chilean costume worn at traditional Cueca dances. The dress has a full skirt with petticoat underneath; a wire satin ruffle hem; waist sash and bow plus her handkerchief as the finishing accessory. Oh, and lots of flower details. Somehow, I am not sure if those suede platform pumps are normally utilized in this dance, but I give her a pass: she's a beauty queen. She needs heels!






Panama Diana Jaen: Miss Panama World's costume represents the popular Pre-Columbian style seen in lots of Latin American beauty queens national costumes. This particular one has to do with a story of a local woman who would kill any of the Spaniards who came to her native land looking for gold, the tale is entitled "El Salto de la niña de Puerto Pilón". Diana says that the costume weighs A LOT (understandably); the headdress alone weighs a supposed eight pounds. 

Nicaragua Stefania Aleman: This Pre-Columbian Nicaragua National Costume was designed by Jeff Manzanares,  The mask on her hand represents the Güegüense which was declared a cultural heritage site by UNESCO in 2005. With this outfit, Stefania presented the dance of the 'inditas', representing the mixture of Spanish culture and native Nicaraguan culture. Also represented on the outfit is El Toro Huaco which is a dance and a legend from the province of Carazo, Nicaragua.







Guatemala Maria Jose Larrana: Maria Jose also wears a Pre-Columbian type costume with feathers, sequins and a very impressive headdress. I especially like her accompanying makeup and not too distracting gold heels.







Belize Jasmin Jael Rhamdas: Miss Belize World's costume features the colors of her country's flag as well as a sequined half-moon and depictions of ocean "flora and fauna" and corals from her country. I like it for the most part; if only she would have not worn black hot pants...and instead a blue sparkle pair of shorts that matched the rest of the costume. I also think the gold heels were a little distracting. I suggest that she should have done silver, to match the half-moon.



Europe-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Belgium Leylah Alliet: The colors of the Belgium flag are incorporated into this mermaid-shaped design with sequins and feathers for Miss Belgium World 2015.







Slovakia Luzja Strakova: Luzja's traditional Slovak costume represents the celebration and pride of the Slovakian people. The main focus of her outfit is that hat, which is a playful interpretation of a traditional Slovakian wedding hat. She says that her costume took over 1 year to make and every detail was handmade!

Czech Republic Andrea Kalousova: Andrea also dons a traditional costume with the flowered headpiece.







England Natasha Hemmings: Natasha's costume has color hints of the England flag but at the same time, gives nods to English Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton.

Gibraltar Hannah Bado: Very traditional. Very Gibraltar.





Italy Greta Galassi: Greta's national costume looks a bit more "Sound of Music" Austria, Swiss Alps as opposed to Italy but she might be vibing the Northern part of Italy, I guess. She's more schnitzel and less pizza.

Hungary Daniella Kiss: Daniella's costume is very representative of the Hungarian national dress with the national colors. She says that she performs a typical Hungarian gypsy dance in this.







Ireland Sacha Livingstone: Sacha's costume is iconic Irish Celtic dance-inspired. I think its quite cute, down to the correct lace-up "Ghillie" slippers.







Caribbean------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Bahamas Chantel O'Brien: Chantel is dressed as the straw doll. Together with straw, her outfit is also made with flowers, which can be found all over the Bahamas. There are details such as shells and a burlap finish which gives it a very wavy look. 

Curacao Alexandra Krijger: Miss Curacao World's costume blends colors of her island's flag as well as historical reference to the Dutch ships and the Curacao fruit of laraha





Haiti Seydina Allen: The colors of Haiti are exemplified in this costume of Miss Haiti World. The design features a knot-tied top and multicolored godet skirt and lace sleeves.

Jamaica Sanneta Myrie: Jamaica, Usain Bolt and his iconic "pose" are well represented in this costume worn by Miss Jamaica World Sanneta Myrie.







Africa------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------





Gabon Reine Ngotala: Reine's costume is like a high-fashion version of a traditional Gabon national ensemble. Great colors, lovely leaf prints and I love the asymmetry of the top section--as well as headdress and fan. I just wished she wouldn't have worn those black heels; they distracted from her costume.



Asia and Oceania----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Turkey Ecem Cirpan: Ecem is six feet tall, and if that isn't enough, she wore this gorgeous costume showing the artistic tile work. This "costume" is EVERYTHING!







Vietnam Tran Ngoc Lan Khue: Miss Vietnam World's costume is a traditional Vietnamese Ao Dai traditional ensemble of long tunic with side slits and accompanying wide-leg palazzo-like pants.

Thailand Thunchanok Moonnilta: Thunchanok's national costume is inspired by the Northern region of Thailand. All of the materials to make the dress as well as the elaborate headpiece were crafted by the people of Northern Thailand, and represents the fusion of Lanna and Thai cultures. 







India Aditi Arya: Aditi's costume is an Indian costume with crop top and pleated skirt. She definitely looks like a Bollywood actress...during a dance number.

Kazakhstan Regina Vandysheva: Regina went a bit traditional with her a-line shaped costume and coat.







Korea Jun Eun-ju: Miss Korea World's dress is a combination of the old traditional Korean Hanbok but the addition of cutouts on the sleeve represents the modern Korea. On the skirt, there is a quilt, which represents the Joseon Dynasty. 








Myanmar Khin Thein Myint: One of my favorite "Miss World 2015" costumes; the colors, the design; the mixing of traditional and fantasy. Super Fabulous.







Australia Tess Alexander: Tess' look is the same costume worn by last year's "Miss Australia World" Courtney Thorpe. The outfit was designed by Julie Sulfi of Belluccio and was inspired by the Women's Land Army, paying homage to the women who worked in agriculture during World War II.

Guam Aria Perez Thiesen: Aria's straw skirt, flower head crown and shell accessories pays tribute to the Chamorro Dance of Guam. I think this is both fun and very traditional. She's very pretty by the way!







Finally...



Fiji Brittany Hazelman: Brittany's costume represents Fiji’s diversity and elegance and the traditional values of Fijian people, according to her. The patterns featured in her costume represent the people of Fiji and their unique rituals, as well as the diversity of the population.



Can't wait to see the "Dances of the World" segment during the "Miss World 2015" Live Finals on December 19th. The show will be aired in the US on E! the morning of December 20th--the same day as "Miss Universe 2015".
