The buttoned-up look is one I admire, but (never thought I would be driven to this in JUNE) it was a bit cold today; I did this to keep the wind and rain out!

Thank you Denny! Very kind of you to say so...

Isabela Gomes

Yellow sweater = love!

Michael K

Michael K.

Thank you Isabela.
Yellow is a difficult colour to work into outfits; and because this one is not too bright, I think I'll be able to make lots of interesting combinations in future outfits!

Love the whole look but the blazer is great. Love the shawl collar

Michael K

Michael K.

Thanks Lenya.
This trend (borrowing elements from evening formalwear and transplanting it into slightly more casual pieces) is one that I love to indulge in!

Dennis Robles

Dennis R. @authentecite

love that yellow vneck michael, plus you're angling of the photo is amazing =)

Michael K

Michael K.

Yes, I think the muted shades of yellow are so much more easy to work into outfits (Yellow generally isn't the easiest colour to work with)
Haha! The angle was a bit of an accident that seems to work.

Sheila Marie

Sheila M.

You've done it again sir.

Michael K

Michael K.

Thank you Sheila. I'm glad you like this!

I like your white watch and the fact that your converse seem to blend with the jeans, that focus the attention on the upper side. .....( yesterday I've tried the Marc Jacobs Cucumber Splash, you were right! I like it, but I still prefer the Hermès one....I have to start to save some money for that! ;P )

Michael K

Michael K.

Wow. Blanca, I'm really flattered that you have studied this picture so closely. I really like that! Thank you.
Alongside my permanent summer colognes and EdTs, I have a few others which I change. Most of these are near empty now. I think I will pick up the "Rain" Splash this week (that is my favourite!)

The sweater is really cute, it blends in and yet it's outstanding.
Really neat look.

Michael K

Michael K.

Oh wow. I like your detailed commentary. Thank you so much Christine!

Christine Tan

Christine T. @hoolalala

Wow, you've been online for ages! And no problem (:

love the mustard yellow :]

Michael K

Michael K.

Thank you Viki.
I was going to say it looks good enough to eat, until I remembered that I can't stand mustard!

Viki Cheung

Viki C.

Ahaha.
I love mustard XD

amazing splash of chartreuse!! you always add little surprise to your outfit :-) ~~

Michael K

Michael K.

I have never come across the word 'chartreuse' before. I had to look it up!
Thank you for noticing. I tend to do work in discreet details like that with my looks.
I think a lot of them don't show very well in my pictures, but thank you for taking time to look!

UnoCosa +

UnoCosa +. @UnoCosa

i agree w/ what you said - you have a very sharp sense that is not exaggerated - small details are what make differenc! it's hard to image living a day to day life that are constantly dramatic and over the top!! not impossible, but i can image, will be surely tiresome!! so, keep up w/ your nice detailSS - i always enjoy looking at them, :-) xoxo

Zeruda ..

me like, me like! yellow is cool!

Michael K

Michael K.

Thank you so much Misse!
I went into COS yesterday, and guess what? This same jumper is on sale at 50% off. Oh well.... it hasn't diminished my love for this colour though.

Very teacher-like :D (if only mines could dress so well...)

Michael K

Haha! I have not seen this picture in ages. In hindsight I think it's a terrible photo, but I will definitely repeat this look this Autumn!
