Fashion Diaries: Brown Sneakers, timeless Classic as a new Spring Fashion Essentials

Fashion Outfit Post 7 Comments

Dear my fashionistas, welcome to the new fashion adventure on the Mr.M blog. Spring has officially come and brought with it some new beautiful moments and finally that beautiful sunny weather that allows us to wear some of our favorite fashion pieces. Weather affects people’s mental health a lot, but when we feel the sun and our skin absorbs that vitamin D, all the daily problems can’t ruin our mood!

I made an effort to use these wonderful spring days to take interesting photos for the today’s blog post. It’s time to open our wardrobes and look for our favorite pieces because spring officially has knocked on our door! Did you prepare in time for the new fashion season? Have you perhaps realized what are some new fashion trends that will reign this season?

Today I am here to show you my vision of sporty elegance in pastel brown tones. Today’s outfit is great for every day, it can even be used for work, if your business environment does not require a strictly business dress code. Each of these item you can combine on different ways and I am sure all of them will find the spotlight in every outfit.

What you really need for a relaxed and casual elegant outfit? An outerwear garment like a leather jacket, light jacket or blazer together with shoes dictates the rest of the outfit for sure. If you want to achieve a fashion balance, you have to build the clothing combination gradually, but you need to have the statement pieces that will be the basis of your clothing outfit.

Today I decided on a leather jacket, many of you will think this model is just another pilot jacket in a row, because of the fur on the collar. I do not deny, this is a jacket with a sporty character, which, due to certain details, perhaps emphasizes a kind of sublime inner elegance which really radiates.

Since I chose a leather jacket, I thought it was necessary to choose appropriate footwear that would fit this sports style, so we need an unavoidable fashion piece that is of great importance in the cult of sports style, of course these are The Sneakers.

We all know that there are several types of sneakers, but today I decided to bring a timeless classic, sneakers from the new collection of the Italian brand from Tuscany, about which I wrote something more in a previous post.

If you want to remind yourself or you haven’t had the opportunity to find out the unusual story of the Fratelli Borgioli brand, I think it is worth taking a few minutes to visit this link.

For all those who do not have the opportunity to read the previous blog post, Fratelli Borgioli is a family Italian brand of handmade footwear that comes from sunny Tuscany. A very successful brand managed today by the third generation, which has more than 70 years of quality work behind it, while respecting the Italian style and tradition.

The most important project of this brand, which saw the light of day at the end of last year, is “SEISHOU“, a new line of shoes designed by the company Fratelli Borgioli with Japanese designers Ikeda and Matsuzaki. The name of the new line, SEISHOU (“unison” in English). This line brings with it a mixture of Italian workmanship and Japanese taste.

SEISHOU is a hybrid collection for him and her, which combines classic Italian design with modern Japanese style. The Japanese concept and design are expressed by the skill of making Italian shoes. The design includes the concept of authentic Italian footwear and a taste that faithfully depicts the modern Japanese way of life.

All shoes from the SEISHOU line combine the comfort of sneakers with the elegance of formal shoes. All pieces are made with the help of complex techniques that are still applied today by a very small number of footwear manufacturers, such as the sole milled on the last, the Blake processing with a hidden channel and the use of natural materials.

If you want to be updated and find out all the news that Fratelli Borgioli is preparing for us, follow them on the social networks Facebook and Instagram.

Of course, to complete this fashion combination, I decided that the best solution was to use the casualness of jeans and to match it with a gentle camel-colored sweater that will soften dark brown tones a bit. I think I have finally fulfilled my task this time! 🙂

Watch: Epos

In the last year, I have returned to the good old habit of wearing watches, which I must admit I am glad and proud of! Today, I decided to take to the city one of my faithful allies who helps me not to be late, and at the same time to have an unusual masterpiece on hand is a wristwatch made by the famous Swiss brand Epos. If by any chance you missed reading an interesting story and history of this company, you can do so by clicking on the link.

My dear fashionistas, we have reached the end of this special post where we enjoyed the beauty of spring and gentle pastel brown shades. How did you like my today’s outfit, the harmony of pastel brown shades in a sporty-elegance manner?

I really tried to prepare today’s post for you with a lot of love and I hope you will like it! See you in a couple of days with some new interesting story!

I advise you from the bottom of my heart to listen to my advice due to the current unfavorable health situation in almost all European and countries around the world. If you need to go out into the fresh air, take a walk and clear your mind, feel free to do so, but do not go to places where there are a lot of people and encourage crowding.

I understand that people need to go out into the fresh air for physical activity and mental health, but you can do that by simple walking the city every day, on low-traffic pedestrian streets. Of course, you can walk in parks and other types of green areas or promenades along rivers, but keep the prescribed physical distance, use disinfectants and wear a mask.

If you have a question, comment, suggestion or message for me, you can write me down in the comments. Of course, as always you can contact me via mail or social media channels, which you can find on the CONTACT ME page. Stay tuned!

Best,
Mr.M

What is Fashion? The Elegant Secession Style of Northern Serbia…

Fashion Outfit Post 3 Comments

My dear travellers and fashionistas, welcome to my new post. How are you today? Have you managed to get back into the normal life after this lockdown time? I am sure that we were all relieved that the authorities decided to relax the measures and return our lives to normal, to which we are all accustomed.

These days, I was thinking about where I could go and clear my mind a little, and along the way learn something new about my country. Researching on the Internet, I found a lot of recommendations with places in Serbia which you have to visit. I have to admit that I was delighted with the photos of Serbia and in the end I decided that I should visit the northernmost city in Serbia – Subotica.

Throughout history, many names have been used to describe the beauty of this city. During the turbulent history, the city changed about 200 names. You must be wondering why?

Subotica is a city where people of different ethnic origins lived from the Middle Ages until today, and it was also under the rule of several different conquering forces. It is interesting that all the inhabitants wrote about Subotica and gave the name of the city in accordance with the spelling and grammar rules of their language, but in most cases, they have not changed the way they are pronounced until today.

Today’s Serbian name of the city of Subotica comes from the word that means the day of the week “Saturday” and first officially appears in the middle of the 17th century.

However, the opinion of the inhabitants is that the town was named after Subotica Vrlić, the treasurer of Emperor Jovan Nenad. Of course, as always, there are more legends that have been passed down from generation to generation and more sources of information, but I think that these two assumptions about the origin of the name of the city of Subotica are true. Do you perhaps know what was the official first name of this city?

Some historical writings prove to us that the first officially documented name of the town was Zabatka, which dates from the 15th century. There are various theories of the history of the origin of this name. According to one of the theories, it is actually one of the variants of today’s name of the city in the Hungarian language, which reads Szabadka.

In accordance with this theory, this word derives from the adjective Szabad, which in Hungarian means “free” and the suffix “-ka”, which is interpreted as a diminutive. Therefore, in the free translation of the original name of today’s Subotica, we can interpret it as a “small” or “freely place”.

The building you have the opportunity to see in the pictures is the amazing palace of the architect Ferenc Reichl, which was built at the beginning of the 20th century. This palace was his home and design bureau at the same time. This building is made in the style of the unique Hungarian Art Nouveau and really represents a masterpiece.

Today, this building is a protected cultural asset and a cultural monument. I will write more information about this landmark in the next post when I take you on a tourist walk through beautiful Subotica.

The city radiates a special energy and all the time I had the feeling that I was in another country. Believe me, I had the impression that I was in a charming Austrian town. My photographer and I were the real attractions in the city for a very short time because no one took pictures, and I had a quite interesting equipment, so it was interesting for people to see what we were doing.

One lady who went to the supermarket with her daughter recognized me and did not believe that she would meet me in her city. The lady was so wonderful that I couldn’t refuse her kindly invitation for coffee, so my photographer and I had an unexpected break.

Since you know that I always share some interesting information with you and my personal observations, I have to tell you one interesting thing. The lady who took us for coffee and lemonade to one pastry shop that had wonderful ice cream. Unfortunately, due to this situation with COVID-19, they can’t make cakes at the moment, but we enjoyed the beautiful sweet summer treats like ice cream.

The thing that amazed me was the price of ice cream, coffee and lemonade… Will you believe me that a scoop of ice cream costs less than 50 cents (euro) dinars and a cone costs around 20 cents… A glass of lemonade 50 cents is also the same price of coffee… I have to admit I was in shock because in my hometown – Belgrade the prices are drastically higher. I didn’t believe it when I got the bill, I thought they didn’t calculate something well, everyone noticed that I was surprised, so they explained me.

I think you now have more reason to visit the northernmost city in Serbia and enjoy the beauty of the city and to refresh yourself a little and take a little sweet break while summarizing your impressions of Subotica.

This nice weather allowed me to “walk” through Subotica my new one and I have to admit a very sensitive jacket made of suede leather who has shown itself very well because you know how difficult leader things made of suede leather are hard for keeping it clean and fresh for a longer time.

I promise you that in the next post I will tell you a story about Subotica and that there will be a lot of interesting information and advice on what you should visit if the road leads you to Subotica!

Last Letter from Lapland: Explore Rovaniemi with Makia

Fashion Outfit Post 6 Comments

My dear travelers, I hope you are doing well. We may not all present at the moment right now because the holiday season is open, but the blogger’s work doesn’t know anything about vacation! Just another month is going to end, and another adventure on the Mr.M blog is also finishing, but a lot of interesting stories await you in August, do not worry.

It may be a little strange, but as a person gets older and becomes an “adult” personality goes through a few stages. I am currently in the phase of “being my own boss and paying my bills”. Tomorrow is the 1st of August and that means only one thing in the Western world, it’s time for payment and on another hand bills must be paid. It’s that little bit of a grown-up thing when you are young, you don’t have a sense of it because your parents are doing it for you, and your job is to enjoy in the life and to find your way. After is quite different!

Then you grow up, and you enter the world of adults where you see that everything is totally different. My first book on university with which I had contact began with a famous sentence, which was not very clear to me at first sight: “There is no free lunch!”. After you finish your studies, you start working and breaking into life every day repeating that sentence and every time it gets a different meaning, but whatever you turn it is not free! ?

Of course we all have to grow up at some point of time, but it would be best for all of us to save that little kid that sits somewhere in our soul and reminds us of some nice little things which are really important lessions in life. Sometimes that little kid can teach us more than some school or university can ever do.

Today I am thinking and trying to summarize these 27 years, what has changed in my life… I realized that as I opened my blog and started to write you here about my troubles and beautiful things in life, my personality has changed drastically. The blog is really a great thing, it came to me as a kind of psycho therapy. I managed to conquer my fears, to conquer myself! Sometimes it is very important to prove to yourself how strong you are and believe me, results will surprise you!

Before I start with my last post from this Lapland edition of posts, I would like to say huge thank you to Visit Rovaniemi and Finnair for this incredible opportunity to be one of the Rovaniemi Summer Ambassadors for 2019.

Today I will write you about my fashion adventure and how I explored Rovaniemi with a little help of my friends from fashion house Makia. Maybe you remember my adventure from Helsinki and one interesting yellow jacket – LINK. Yeah, that jacket was from the special collection Makia x MOOMIN, which was a collaboration between Makia, the most famous Finnish luxury street wear and MOOMIN. For the final part of their collaboration with the Moomins, Makia designers team got inspired by the easily relatable and curious character of Moominpappa.

Now it comes the time to present you a new Fall – Winter collection of Makia Clothing on my blog. I am sure that the first thought on your mind was: “What he is talking about, it’s still summer!”. Maybe for you is summer, but fashion brands need always to be prepared for a new fashion season.

When I had started my journey from Berlin to the heart of Lapland, in Berlin was around 35,36 degrees and I came to Rovaniemi with short sleeves T-Shirt. I will just tell you that in Rovaniemi was around 12 to 14 degrees, so it was like twenty degrees difference. For all humans, you know that would be a huge temperature shock for your body.

But, my friends from Makia have already known all those facts, so they sent me one box with all must have things to “survive” Lapland. At the first moment I just wanted to hug them all, because they really thought about everything, about every detail and they knew my favorite colours, so it was just a perfect match!

After I finish with my schedule it was time to show gratitude to my friends from Makia, so my photographer and I made a very last walking tour around the Rovaniemi and we made these photos.

Rovaniemi is a very interesting city, which can fulfill all your wishes and Visit Rovaniemi team did absolutely everything to show me all the beauties of this lovely city. This trip really was one interesting mix of everything: educational, funny and of course I met the Santa!

Makia clothes helped me a lot, so it was nice to explore Rovaniemi with their help. This outfit is ideal for casual city walk, as you saw in one of my previous posts from Lapland.

What I love about Makia? Makia is a brand which makes simple and functional design clothes that focuses on the quality materials which is the most important thing.

What I also love about Makia? Their way of communication with the influencers. For example, I received my package which was prepared on time, because my visit to Lapland was shorter than previous one in Helsinki. They made for me few outfits, they just asked me to confirm my sizes and they with their stylists made quite interesting choice of outfits for me.

After I’ve got my package, I saw on their online store one interesting beanie! It was simple, but the colour was just amazing, so I asked them is it possible to send that beanie, because I love red colour. The next day I’ve got a call from reception of hotel in Rovaniemi and they informed me that some new package is arrived for me, if I am free thay would like to bring it for me. Couple minutes ago I saw one big box, bigger than previous one…

My first thought was, this is too big for one small beanie! I opened the box and I was surprised because there was a totally new outfit which completely match with the beanie!

That was much more than I expected so I got 4 outfits instead of 3 and I just wanted one small, simple red beanie…

Life is interesting when you don’t have some high expectations. I am happy because I have my job which I really love from the bottom of my heart and I have family and friends who are always there in every single moment ready to help me and support every crazy idea of mine…

Last couple of days, I’ve got a lot emails with some questions, so I will use this post to give you an answer on the most interesting question.

“Dear Marko, I follow you for 3 years now and this is the first time that I have something to ask you. Is this blogging thing something what you really like or it is just because of money? If you feel that some part of question is not right, you do not need to respond me. I will respect your decision.” – Kelly from UK (She gave me the permission to share her question here on my blog and to publish her first name).

Dear Kelly, I decided to follow my dreams, but I worked long years to make my dream come true. I always wanted to become writer, but as you know life has some other plans for us. This bloggers, influencers thing now is in the spotlight because of money. This is a job like any others, there is no difference. If you do not make some effort, do not expect something in return. First of all, I love my blogging job because it helped me to change myself to become a better version of me. I don’t want to lie anybody, this job is good, you have a lot of perks, freebies which sometimes you can’t pay if you work some regular job with some average European salary. People are curious to know, what exactly are we doing and getting so much money? I know that I work a lot, and this can be seen by the content I regularly share with all of you on my blog and social networks. Once again I love my job, even when I am not making any money, I am capable to work some side jobs to help myself if I need some money. I also love this because because it always give me a great feeling of freedom and relaxation when I have opportunity to write some new story, because I am the writer and editor at the same time! This is my little kingdom where I am always free to be myself and that is a real luxury in nowdays world.

Feel the Holidays with a new Festive look!

Fashion Outfit Post Tips 5 Comments

Hi everyone, how are you today? I really hope that you’re doing great, but it’s time to work a little so I decided to share with you some news and write a new post. I am from those kind of people who like to plan and do many things in advance and before the New Year just make one wish – just everything that has been agreed, will be realized! As much as people try to spread negative energy, we should not be allowed to assure us that effort and work are not worth the effort. Of course, each one of us has some own wishes, plans, and it is irrelevant whether they are small or big, everyone has the right to do something that is desirable for their dreams.

Today, I just remembered one conversation that I had with my friend almost 4 years ago when she was convinced me that there was nothing special out of the blog, that it was a pure waste of time and nerves, so she began to list the names of people who were then popular in this blogging world. I just asked the question: “What if I turn out the game? Can I find a place for myself? “She had no answer to that question.

That’s how my story about Mr.M began as a kind of new way, as proof that everything is possible if you truly and really love what you do. Writing a blog is not easy, it’s a very difficult mental work, where a certain amount of creativity is required. When I begin to write a post, every time I have a feeling of a certain kind of fear, which has not passed with time, but it’s not something that you can’t beat with the time.

Many of you asked me few times where I learned to write this way, whether I was in some kind of writing course or did I attend a “blogger” school? The answer is NO! I did not go to courses or any school because I really do not believe in that type of bloggers “education”. Schools make molds, simply make people think similarly. I do not write serious things like celebrated writers, nor pretend to do it or to become a person that will be significant in literary circles, but I want to show my attitude and opinion in a true and unique way.

Also I received a lot of questions like: “You write well, unlike a particular person or group of bloggers, it’s a shame that you do not have a larger number of readers on your blog, how are you dealing with it, is it worth to do it?” I once answered one such email with one long letter, I guess I was angry, and on the other hand, disappointed that it is possible that someone has the right to compare someone in such a way.

I greatly appreciate and respect all my colleagues, whether are they the bloggers or people who are influencers (people who are influential on social networks and platforms) and there is no need to compete or compare. Everyone has the right to run own blog and take care of his public “image” in social media world. From the very beginning, I tried to keep my blog in such a way that an average person could understand me, someone similar to me. It does not have to be everything turn around of salary and money of course, we need to survive and earn something, but the charm of our work lies in feeling the reaction of people who like and read our work.

I always try to use the terminology that everyone knows or at least most people and I’m glad that people who read these posts on my blog have recognized and found something good in the whole Mr.M story. I started the blog with the idea to share some of my stories with the hope of having fun and making someone a good day after work. After a while, I received a lot of messages with compliments that my stories were emotional and educational. If that’s the case, then that’s great, at least something smart and useful from me! ?

Now the only question that worries me most: When will this snow go away? The more it turns out, people can not function normally, just a few hours later, Belgrade becomes white Siberia and traffic is in a collapse, and poor people do not know what to do. I’d like to tell you something interesting about this outfit.

You had the opportunity to see this lovely jacket – parka last year on the blog, some people were worried about throwing stuff, so you can see that bloggers do not live with an exclusive way of life, so that after shooting we throw things and we dress every day new thins… That’s one little sweet lie, we repeat certain fashion pieces a lot of times, and yes we dress all those promotional clothes in daily life, it’s not just for the Instagram. 😀

I got a sweater from my friends from the Finnish fashion house Turo, you also saw it before this winter on the blog, the link of the post. The red color always fix my mood, and this sweater is so warm and soft that I really doubt that I will be able to leave it in the closet this season, since this snow can surprise us in May as well… Weather is constantly changing!

Jeans are a special story, honest to be, I can not even tell myself how many jeans I buy each year and also how much of them I get from brands and the worst part most of them are almost the same, classic cut. That is why some people think that I have the same same jeans every time. Not my dear ones, I have almost 20 pairs of similar jeans, which I honestly do not even see the difference, so I perfectly understand you…

The backpack is a special story itself and I am very proud of this collaboration with the famous German brand Picard. I do not know how familiar you are with this brand, you might have heard of it, but it is extremely popular in Germany and it’s affordable, but the quality is exceptional.

The Germans are a very wise and economical people, and when they buy something like clothes or fashion accessories, it is generally important for them to invest their money in some thing which is quality, even when the price is affordable for them, there is anybody happier than themselves. Picard is a German brand that has managed to match the wishes and needs of its customers. Simple design, eternal classic and product quality are the basic characteristics of this famous German brand. Their fashion story began back in 1928, and since then, they have made daily lives much easier for all their customers.

Because all of that, I’m glad that I got the chance to work with a brand such as Picard and that I will have the opportunity to show you some of their iconic models of bags that you can wear on all occasions and of course to be noticed. Also, Picard has a great collections of women’s bags and they always have some interesting offers and sales, so take the opportunity to visit their online shop from time to time.

I am a big fan of pastel colors, brown color is my favorite color and I have inherited the love for this color from my mother who usually adores and almost all of her fashion pieces are in this color, I will just tell you how much this love to brown color is huge when it is her favourite coffee cup is in the brown colour as well… ?

Have you made some of your New Year’s decisions? If you are not still sure, do not worry it’s not late, people say that January is anyway the month for resting the year begins since February, so you have a few more days to think about your goals for this year and slowly start with work.

My dear fashionistas, once again we have come to the end of this fashion – lifestyle tips post. Time just flies so fast when you are having a good time! Don’t worry in a couple of days I will publish a new post where we will continue together to enjoy the charms of traveling and we will star some new adventure!

At the end of the post, I would like to thank my friends from the Picard which helped me to explore urban world of men’s street fashion & style.

Is Beauty the most Important Thing in Life?

Fashion Outfit Post Tips 12 Comments

Hello, my dear ones, welcome to my first post in 2019. This is my first post this year and I have to admit that I am a little nervous and excited because I have everything on my mind right now and I hope to be able to “speak out” my thoughts and write all of them correctly. First I would take the opportunity to express my sincere apologies to you that I am writing a post today, but I did not arrive because of certain duties earlier and I was not inspired because of the cold (yes, I was sick again!).

I want to congratulate you New Year and Christmas, I wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart. Christmas reminds us every year about the most important values of life: love and respect. I hope that we will all find the peace for which we are constantly searching! I hope you have spent these holidays with your family and friends, some may even have been fortunate to travel somewhere. The most important thing is that we all finally end up with a smile on the face and a filled heart with joy to enjoy in these holidays and we are ready to move on.

I did not plan at all to write a blog post today, but because of an unusual question that I received tonight on Facebook, I decided to write a post with this “interesting” topic. That question was not exactly the reason that led me to write this post, better to say that it was more a “trigger”. During these holidays, I spent a lot of time with my dear people, because of the illness of the photographer, my team was not able to realize the collaboration with one Tourism Board for the New Year’s holidays, because of all of this I decided not to go alone, and the rest of my team agreed with my decision that it is the best that we all spend holidays together in Serbia.

My friends always give me inspiration for my posts on the blog, all the texts so far were in some way directly or indirectly about some of our everyday topics, so we have touched on the theme of physical appearance for these holidays, or has everything become so superficial today? We all know how important it is to leave a good first impression, maybe we will not impress anyone at a first sight, but there is always some chance that someone will remember us for some of our unique personality…

This holiday season my best friend was my hero, why? Her boyfriend left her after 3 years of relationships with words: “Sorry, you’re just not my type!” What connected or better to say “tied” them in those three years? Obviously, it’s just an instinct to spend with a person for three years and to be left in such a way while she was stepping into the new year with thinking that after New Year’s Eve she would choose a wedding dress, she got her “dump” card on December 27th… It’s all life, but have we really become so superficial?

Did love decide to escape from the city or all those wonderful romantic movies on Hallmark channel is just a perfect lie? Of course, American love comedies and soap operas are just there to help us feel a better for hour or two afterward we return to our lives. At least, each of us is aware that perfection exists, but if you decide to spend some time, you should make a little effort to find something interesting in a person who thinks about you on the other side … You all know very well the fact about  that modern saying: “Karma is b..”, everything is at the end coming back.

That was a short story about some of disasters in love relationships, but let’s tell you something about a bit different relationships – Business. If you want to succeed in the business world, whatever you want to do in your life, you need to possess 3 the most important things: self-confidence, persistence and commitment. If you do not own it, you are ruined! It sounds a bit rough, but that is the ugly truth! This is the truth that your life teaches you, but if you change your habits on the time and change yourself, the results will be beyond any average.

As much as anyone thinks that bloggers do nothing and that everything including money and products fall from the sky especially at the moments when we, blogger want, that everything is waiting for us on the plate, and it is only for us to find the ideal white wall to take pictures of our fashion outfits… FALSE! Blogger’s work is very complex, some people who met me have changed their opinion about our profession because they saw with which problems we are facing daily. Each of us can be a blogger, you can run your blog and write about a topic or many different topics that really interact with you.

Bloggers need to know more things, besides having some talent for writing, they need to know how to edit photos, they must always improve themselves, have to learn new marketing tools, persistent to be good absolutely in everything. I started my blog by taking pictures with the help of my friends with a mobile phone, I told you about it in some post, to be honest right now I can not exactly remember in which, it does not matter now. It’s important that you know where you are going and that you do not lose your self for a pair nice shoes or some coat, this is where self-confidence, perseverance and dedication arouses to help you to get know yourself much better.

I have always been fortunate to be surrounded by people who are trying to help me in my vision to make Mr.M a something more than just a blog; it is simply an oasis of peace where everyone can relax and those few minutes that leave for themselves just to clear their minds with a cup of Coffee, if you encounter my blog, enjoy some nice and interesting topics like fashion and travel.

I mentioned FASHION and TRAVEL. These are two completely different things, but they can connect nicely. Fashion has always been a “cruel” industry. There always were high standards that were difficult to fulfill… Beauty has always been the most important thing and everything else is being suppressed. The average people have never been in fashion, but the times have changed NOW. We all see the top models look perfect on the runways and during the shootings of some fashion editorials. When you see them in live, finally you realize that they are not nothing special, that it is all makeup and a good Photoshop…

Yesterday I got an interesting question on Facebook and I shared with my friends in my own way:

Guys, I’ve just got an interesting question … 

Person: “How can you be a blogger when you’re not beautiful?”

After 30 minutes I ate all the sweets in the house, I called 15 friends to cry and to find some good answer, I also called a plastic surgeon with the desire to change my personal appearance, but I realized that I need at least 30,000 dollars that I will not earn for my 10 lives… So, my diplomatic and calm answer was:

“Beauty is in the eye of an observer, good night and pleasant dreams!”

Many people thought this message was ridiculous because I wanted to entertain people on the way I usually do, but on the other hand, I really do not care about it, because I just wanted to entertain people and to share something interesting with them. Also, there are blogger who are sensitive to such messages, so they lose self-confidence and do not know how to continue with their work. I will only tell you one thing, as an average man with average intelligence, keep in mind that you need to look at yourself and go only through life, because beauty is transient. Beauty is a feature that has value only to cold and superficial people.

It’s great when a woman or a man is good as a person and beauty is just as an additional plus to all those other qualities. According to some of my modest opinions, people who are looking at the exterior only are cold and empty and try to make up some totally unnecessary standards.

Will beauty save the world and humanity? Believe me, we are all human, but rarely is a person. Strive to be a good person and provide everyone a chance and realize that there is nothing to insult or humiliate a person. Everybody is beautiful in his own way, each of us has something special and we need to appreciate what we really have.

At the end, I would like to tell you a short story about the outfit that you had the opportunity to see today on the photos. You saw this lovely shearling leather jacket last winter on the blog, I just decided to get it out of my closet and walk this season again. This amazing turtleneck sweater I’ve got from my friends from the fashion house Turo from Finland.

I received my boots last year from my friends from Burberry, just not to think that bloggers only bring things for a couple of times, then we throw it in the garbage like it hasn’t ever existed… I do not throw anything at all, I have things I’m keeping and I am happy to carry them even today, although all those years, this boots are something special for me, they are evidence that I did something good in my blogging life to get them.

My dear fashionistas, once again we have come to the end of this fashion – lifestyle tips post. Time just flies so fast when you are having a good time! Don’t worry in a couple of days I will publish a new post where we will continue together to enjoy the charms of traveling and we will star some new adventure!

At the end of the post, I would like to thank my friends from the Turo fashion house which helped me to explore urban world of men’s fashion.

P.S. I have to share some confidential information with you! Special sales have started on official website of Turo fashion house, so now you can use your chance to buy this amazing turtleneck sweater on the link bellow or you can find some other interesting items for you.

Fashionable and Stylish Fall in Tallinn

Fashion Outfit Post

My dear fashionistas, how are you today? I hope you have used this weekend in the best possible way, even though weather conditions have not been favorable to us these days. Today I present to you a special fashion story from the capital of Estonia. I must admit that I have been thinking a lot today about the title of this post because Tallinn is itself an unusual city. A modern city that has some magical vibe of medieval times, where tradition and culture were at an enviable level. Other values were more valued, art was different, exalted, maybe even had its own cult, which today was visibly faded.

Tallinn is a city with a special energy. One day in early morning, we’re even finished on a cruise. From high dose of excitement I forgot about the umbrella, without telling you how many times I checked the weather forecast last night in Tallinn. Fortunately, when you have a photographer who has travelled almost the whole world, everything has to be in the backpack… In my backpack, there were only basic “survival kit” – a biscuit, a cap, a scarf and a couple of maps from Helsinki (for God sake I really do not understand why I carried with me maps of Helsinki in Tallinn, I will just say God, please help me!) That’s only I can take at 3 am in the morning, I’ll just tell you that I used only the biscuits from all these great stuff which I had in my “survival kit”! ?

We arrived early in the morning in Tallinn, I think it was about 7 am in the morning, I only know that there was no living soul on the street at that time. Well, on the one hand, this is great when you want to have a good photo shooting of fashion outfit for the post. On the other hand, I could not immediately feel the soul of the city, because as we all know the soul of every city, are inhabitants.

All right, it quickly went through that emptiness, as long as I have ended with my biscuit, I heard the first sound of female heels on the streets of Tallinn. I have always admired the women for their ability to maintain balance on heels and also to run on those high heels. What to say, well congratulations you are my heroes! Sometimes, barely I do not know to walk properly with normal flat sneakers on the ground!

Well, after watching a small street fashion show, three best friends go together to some serious business work, one could say that it was a more serious company, perhaps a law office, because all three were perfectly fiddled in toned suits with briefcases and modern bags… Maybe, they are some business women from a serious corporate business world, that we bloggers will never be able to understand.

It was all great, but my photographer was so disturbed by my bright orange turtleneck sweater which by his modest opinion did not fit in with this brown combination… It wasn’t that bad, the first thing – material was a bit thicker than my other beige turtleneck sweater which I planned to I carry with this outfit and the other thing is that I noticed that the facades in Tallinn are mostly bright beige, white colors and I did not want to be part of them! That’s why I combined together nicely and usefully, I did not become part of the Tallinn architecture, but I did not freeze, thanks god. You know, I am from those people who can easily get sick, and because of that I have 9,999 medications in my bag on all my journeys, because you never know what can make me “sick” in one of my adventures.

Luckily, the Main Office of the Tourist Board of Tallinn has opened, so we got some guidelines, how to use a few hours in Tallinn in the best possible way. In the picture above you can see little Marko, the man who “studied” hard the guide through Tallinn.

OUTFIT

Coat: Burberry

Turtleneck sweater: Makia

Jeans: Pedro del Hierro

Sneakers: Sax

Camera: Sony Alpha 7r Mark II

This year, the Autumn have some completely different colors. In Finland and Estonia, everything is all about nature, so I had the opportunity to enjoy the magic of golden autumn because of the rich natural world in Nordic European countries. As I wrote in the previous post, fashion experts said that this season gold colour is in trend, so I can only notice that nature in Helsinki and in Tallinn as well, follows the latest fashion trends! ?

My dear fashionistas once again we have come to the end of this special fashion post from Tallinn. Time just flies so fast when you are having a good time! Don’t worry in a couple of days I will publish a new post where we will continue together to enjoy the charms of traveling and we will continue our adventure.

At the end of the post, I would like to thank the friendly staff from Aallonkotti Hotel Apartmentsthat made our stay pleasant and we felt like we were at home. The concept of hotel is to stay in apartments of different sizes. The size of apartments depends on your needs. The apartment in which we had the opportunity to stay was specially decorated by the well-known Finnish brand Marimekko, which besides its basic activity – making clothes has its own special line for home decoration.

How do you like this outfit? Have you ever visited Tallinn? Did you have chance to enjoy in the magic of the Tallinn? I would like to share with me your experience! If you have a question, comment, suggestion or message for me, you can write me down in the comments. Of course, as always you can contact me via mail or social media, which you can find on the CONTACT page.

As I promised we’ll see again in a couple of days, so if something new and interesting happens to me, I promise, I will write to you!

Best,

Mr.M

It’s time for new adventures!

Fashion Outfit Post 2 Comments

Hello everyone! Welcome to my new post. I hope you doing good! Holidays have passed and it’s time to return to our daily duties. Some people find it very difficult to accept new challenges at work… I guess in the end it’s all life! Show must go on!

Have you made a list of plans and wishes for 2018? My list is almost done, well it’s not so bad either. ?

 

 

If somebody of you remembered that I mentioned in the previous post and I also posted on the social networks, that I will anticipate in some new projects and some new exciting adventures… It’s time to talk more about it! Prior to the end of last year, I was invited to participate in the project of the Ministry of Tourism of India in co-operation with the Government of India. It’s a special trip with luxury trains, where 60 bloggers from all over the world will have the opportunity to explore India.

The motto of the project is “8 days, 60 bloggers, a million stories!”. I must admit that I am very excited and that I can not describe my happiness that I will have a unique opportunity to visit the country like India. As I promised you and I led you to my “adventure of life.” India is a magical country and I can’t wait to see one of the world wonders, such as Taj Mahal. Now is almost less than two weeks of the beginning of this incredible adventure. First, I counted the days, now I started to count the hours! ?

If anyone was in India and you have some recommendations what to visit in New Delhi, let me know! Thank you in advance! ?

 

 

At the very beginning I wanted to tell you some news, so that we could continue with our post. ?

Today’s post was made on special day so I decided to take a little walk around town with my dear ladies (for now they are my mom and sister! :)). The sister showed the initiative that she want to make some photos for my blog! Believe me it has to be used well because these moments are very exciting and very very short lasting so that it was just for me to dress fast and go outside for shooting!

 

 

I don’t know if you were surprised by this unusually warm time we had at the beginning of the year in Europe, but it was a pleasant surprise to me. That’s why I decided to wear my favourite coat in this post. Of course I also have a red sweater to continue to spread the joy after those holidays! ?

 

 

The streets were full of kids, which made me very happy! Nothing can put the smile on your face as it can make a child’s smile! Maybe this is because the kids are feeling the real enjoy of these holidays from the heart? I do not know, I’m not smart, but these are some of my thoughts!

While we were making photos for this post, one lady came who was following my blog and asked me how I could be smiling at the pictures all the time.

Here “who would say miracles are happen”! Everything is possible! After a little chat with lady, one sweet little girt pulled my sweater. I think she liked the stars on my sweater that she tried to remove some of them, but something did not go like she wanted! (luckly for me!)

As much as I ask her how old she is, she tried to talk with me, but on the other hand she was busy with removing my poor stars from the sweater. That’s a brave little girl! She will be a real danger when she grows up. I wish the luck for all guys who will meet her one day! 🙂

 

 

After I have finished with little girl, it was time for me to occupy the stairs on the Kalemegdan fortress. I was a real attraction to the few Chinese ladies who took some photos of me! 😀 I can tell you that this year has started very interesting! ?

Jeans are definitely my favourite and most fashionable piece in my closet for this season, believe me. When I think I have to go to somewhere where I will do some activities more than usual, jumping around or something… I can only imagine to do that with the jeans! Now I get few pairs of jeans, which are perfect for my trip to India… My mom still doesn’t believe, that I’m going to India. Almost every day ask me am I planning to take her on the trip she will go with me, even if she’s in my luggage! ? Mothers…

 

 

I sincerely hope you enjoyed my today’s post. As you already know, for all questions, comments, suggestions or business proposals fro collaboration you can contact me via social media or just visit the CONTACT page on the blog. ?

We’ll see you in a couple of days, so if something new and interesting happens to me, I promise, I will write to you!

 

Best,

Mr.M

Black, black, black…

Fashion Outfit Post 5 Comments

Hi guys! Here’s another Wednesday, and with it my new post! I’m very glad that you liked my previous post. Today I decided to show you something new on my blog, the street style you haven’t seen me before. Today, I wanted to be a post “from head to toe in black,” but still my photographer (better read my mother!) decided, it’s better to take a beige sweater and sneakers at least… Sometimes it’s really hard to live with me! But, wait it’s time to start with my today’s post!

 

 

I’ve been thinking about how to call today’s post for a long time. Fist, I wrote something, than I delete the title at least 100 times until I remembered one beautiful sentence “Black, black, black I LOVE YOU!” then I decided to use it (just a first part!). The black colour is eternal, it’s a classic. Black suit, a little black dress, a black bag are all the details that every fashion reader see in the most famous world magazines every season recommend that you have to have this season. I chose a black jacket, which is at first sight very simple. What do you see? A black, shorter canvas jacket, when you notice unusual pockets with those fashionable zippers… And? That’s it? I first saw on it fur trim, which is shining, metal chrome colour details, and I especially liked it’s length. When you have almost 2 meters, you do not have much choice when it comes about the jacket. I’m sure that other men who are struggling with height also felt that they liked the pieces that are more for the lower men. So, for example, I’m wearing a black leather biker jacket with those famous raves that I dream about, but the reality is different … When I dress it, I look at least as if I borrowed a younger brother’s jacket, so I hardly “boarded” it just to look like a “fashion icon” for some time (at least I think I look, but I know that the ugly truth is completely different! But I will not!). This jacket I liked because it’s not too short, but it’s quite long enough to satisfy my fashionable “wishes”.

 

 

The story about the glasses is very special… I am a huge fan of sunglasses, I only wear optical glasses when I have to! (now I carry them while writing thi post, otherwise my ego is dictated by the rules of 100% you would read every other sentence in this post “# $” jnsvd, that’s at best!). Since I’m still a big loser when we talk about glasses, they’ve all stolen or I borrowed and I forgot to ask for them, I only stayed with one pair now. When I bought them, I felt like Tom Cruise in Top Gan movie, and as time went by, I realised that they didn’t look good on me and so they were waiting for their 5 minutes to take them again… I almost received mail from representatives of Ferragamo, would I like a new pair of sunglasses? I mean, for God’s sake it’s almost a winter! I think maybe it’s not best time for sunnies now, but my mom is always there to fix me, so she put some of her sunglasses with the words: “Hey, babe!” And her famous waving like Queen Elizabeth II. Oh, I called out and forgot to say the most important thing! Of course I agreed to get the new glasses, and so these new sunnies which came to me. Come to papa! Now I have super glasses to hide from paparazzi! 😀 Now I understand the older people wearing sunglasses in winter, it’s nice and useful! You can hide wrinkles and bad mood! 😀

 

 

The sneakers are already familiar to you from some previous posts… What to do! The crisis also came in our perfect blogger world, so we have to wear some sneakers and more than 3 times (there are cases when there wore more than 5 times!). And this time my Alfie did a great job (if you forgot to tell you Alfie is my best friend, Sony Alpha 7R camera).

I sincerely hope you liked my today’s post. If you have any question, suggestion or proposal for collaboration, you can contact me via social media or by mail: mr.m.style@hotmail.com

Dear Fashion Diary, Burberry is timeless

Fashion Outfit Post 5 Comments

Hi guys! It’s a new working week, so it’s time for new victories! I sincerely hope that you are doing good and that you have energy for new challenges. “Fashion as a way of life …” is not just a phrase, it’s the best way to “escape” from cruel reality and at least for a moment forget all your problems. It’s time to start my new post, so let’s start this “diary”!

 

 

This year, this Fall is so overwhelming, people just don’t know what to wear… Mid-Season sales are slowly going. I must confess they are great, while in some shops there is still a summer sales in Serbia. My neighbour, who is one of the prominent artists, said: “Buying clothes is like mixing the colors, pastel colors are spring-summer, while those are darker autumn-winter, we mix a little and get our own style. Wear clothes how you feel, and not how others say to you! “. It’s the same with my coat, it’s not too dark, nor too bright, but believe me, it’s enough to be warm! ?

If someone had told me a few years ago that I would wear a coat and that he would be able to warm me up, I would think for that person that he or she was crazy. Where will one coat warm you … My mother always told me:

“Son, when you start wearing coats, this is a new chapter in life for a man – becomes MAN (with BIG m, you will understand).”

As the years go by, I really have personally been convinced of it. Coat has some power, which affects the man who carries it. Guys, to disappoint you, you will not feel like Batman or Superman, it’s not a magic cloak. A lot of people on the street asked me where I bought thus coat and how beautiful it is. It’s just funny for me, how I have chosen that color. Since there were plenty of colors, a couple of bloggers got color codes, I started my searching in my shoes closet and I found my old shoes, which I adore because they are in the shades of brown-camel colors that I REALLY LOVE! I simply sent a piece of that print and after few days the package arrived, It was amazing, a coat that finally agrees with my favorite sneakers!

 

 

This is real “Urban Classic” do you remember that description of my style, the first post when I did not know where I was or what I did, but I knew one thing – I want to keep doing it!

I want to thank you for the support! This autumn and winter will be cheerful on my blog. Styles will maybe change a little, you may see me in some new releases, which you are not used to, but it’s all within the limits of good taste and good fun.

I sincerely hope that you liked my today’s post! If you have any question, suggestion or proposal for collaboration, as always you can contact me via social networks or by mail: mr.m.style@hotmail.com

Best,

Mr.M

Berlin Fashion Week Day 3

Fashion Outfit Post

 

Hi guys!

How are you today! I hope you are good and ready for my new post! Today I will show you my outfit which I wore on the 3rd day of BFW (Berlin Fashion Week). As you know I am the person who likes to combine some unusual color with some ordinary color (in this case that will be a beige color). I think that I did a good job, but I must hear your opinion! 🙂

 

Third day was very exciting and I also met some new German bloggers and the interesting fact they are not fashion bloggers, mostly of them were travel, food or parenting bloggers. I really had a amazing time with them and we also used a nice weather to make photos for our blogs. Mostly of bloggers that day made photos in area of Brandenburg Gate, and we decided to go not so far but to try to be original and make some photos… I must admit my plan was to make some good photos and to meet Angela Merkell, but this time luck was not on my side… Oh, well what to do… I will try another time…

 

 

My outfit was on one hand was casual but also was sportive – elegant, because jeans you can also wear for special occasions but you must be careful with model of jeans, cut and of course with the color! Sweater I bought in Zara, now here in Germany are the final sales and I bought this beauty for only 7 euros! I think I catched a good deal!

 

 

I hope you will enjoy in these photos as I enjoyed while I was making them for you! If you have some suggestion or business proposal don`t hesitate just contact me and I will be happy to connect with you!

I must say big thank you to my new friends from SONY Deutschland! Now you will see my photos much better (perfect! :D) and they gave me my new friend Alpha 7R, I think I will call him Alphie from now. What do you think about this idea? It is a small but very profesional toy! This is my second time to use it for my blog, but I feel like I used him fo years!
