MR. LAPO ELKAN'S GUCCI WARDROBE - Tartan manifesto for this fall, including one of this Gucci collacorations with Lapo Elkan, a businessman with authentic Italian sartorial style. His iconic wide peak lapel, slipper dress shoes matching with the suit and businessman essential for briefcases. Even though I am not really into wide peak lapel, especially for slim fit jacket or double breasted, but this season everything goes oversize, I am not talking about suit but a great coat. For pattern, plaid plaid tartan plaid with one or two inf…

LOOKING FOR SOME JAVANESE RHINOS - And the answer is no, we got nothing but fresh air and bird sing along. Moreover it's going to be dangerously awkward if we saw and met one. We're separated in two boats, I had the little one, me and my other 3 friends. What I was worrying is anaconda and alligator, too much movies sometime can kill you but thank God nothing happened and sun coming so friendly that day. But we found footprints of Javanese Rhinos over there, they said it's a spot of rhinos to drink some water, also the goods …
CANOEING NOT CANOEING - The first time I heard we will canoeing, honestly I thought it will be me, myself, alone with the paddles, but in reality, I am with another 3 friends, yes with paddles but also our canoe pulled by by the bigger boat with machine lol, effortless!
THE FUTURE OF OUR NATURE - I am so glad that I have been here to feel and to see on of UNESCO World Heritage Site, unfortunately the accomodation & facility is very limited because it's a remote area, but for me as long as with my friends, everything gonna be so good (obviously).

Indonesia is more than just beautiful, it's archipelago of parad…

ENJOY THE DEEP BLUE SEA - It's been a (years) while since a long time ago when I was working for Oil Services company, exploring the sea with the boat, act like spoiled kid on the top of the boat but this is the point when you feeling so free, feeling so grateful, feeling one with nature, all I see is a deep blue sea. No no, my intention was not for sun bathing or act like I love if my skin burning or being tanned, I have been there and somehow I love my skin tanned but if my body muscular as hell, tanned skin will be a complement.…

Back to a couple seasons ago in menswear, when people were wearing shine bright socks to stands out between the darker suit or outfit and mostly found in Italy during Pitti Uomo or Milan Fashion Week , but still this is one of the bravest breakthrough in sartorial world. Yes it's not as easy as winking, but be fun. When the rule says that the color of your socks is one of your pant's shades, but …
