There are times when I need to head out but don’t yet don’t want to deal with the bulk of my wallet or the hassle of losing it when on vacation. For those occasions, I turn to my card cases; they provide a simple, easy way to store your plastic/cash, ID and name-card.
This card case from Dior Homme with its patent leather and textured quilted squares will be right at home with any modern wardrobe. The patent gives a sleek sheen while the quilted squares add texture and detail that is distinctly stylish with a bit of an edge.

A day bag is an essential piece for me – I throw most everything (water bottle, book/magazine, notes, receipts etc) in my Marni bag everyday and out the door I go. I don’t like using plastic/paper bags (I make a conscious effect to be green everyday as much as I can) so whenever I buy something, I just throw it in my bag.
If you like being able to have your hands free while you shop or run errands, this sleek Dior bag will be a great friend for years to come. I played with this in the Dior store in Paris and it has remained at the back of my mind – occasionally resurfacing.
I am loving its size (17″x 9″x 2″); this will look …

I love detail especially unique ones. So my curiosity was piqued when I came across the name of this Dior jacket. When I think supply jackets, I think huge and multiple pockets, durability and quilted nylon? Something baggy and puffy. One that would withstand beating and weight.
This piece has all the trappings of a regular Dior Homme jacket; the fit, the beautiful rear yoke paneling and the tailored silhouette.
It’s also got something extra – a bullet holster for 6 rounds of your shotgun? It’s unique and slightly interesting but I don’t think most individuals who wear Dior Homme would shoot game and rabbit.
It’s seems like an unnecessary detail – although, it would be great for transporting those test-tube shots in the club. Or …

I’ve recently tailored made some tuxedo pants and I am loving the vibe they give out. They can be as versatile as you want them to be. Dress them up with a shirt and fancy shoes or down with Converse sneakers, a tee and lots of money-can’t-buy attitude.
If you rather something designed and store bought, these 19cm (7.5”) pants from Dior Homme is as sharp as they get. Like most Dior Homme pants and denim, you can be assured a great fit and form.
With a banded waist and luxurious tuxedo stripes down the sides of the legs, this is one pair that will get you compliments. So get ready for them.

A leather jacket is one of those investment pieces. Get a great one and it will serve you well for years. Not only will a leather jacket look better with age, it will also be softer and more comfortable the more you wear it. So take good care of yours - you won’t regret it.
I am digging this beautiful piece from Dior Homme. Its paneled design and stitched detail is exquisite and like items from Dior Homme, this would fit like a glove, which is ultimately what you would want from a jacket with a 4 figure pricetag.
The popper fastening on this jacket ensures you don’t have to fumble with a broken zip years down the road; which would be a hassle. 2 zip pockets on either side will give you the freedom …

I am a fan of the iconic Dior Homme bumblebee and this tie with its bee pattern jacquared weave shows off the mascot in an intricate way. Look at this, it’s subtle and sleek and you can’t tell the weaves are actually bee patterns without going close to the person wearing this. Luxury should be intimate and this 100% silk tie is a fine example. Get this for US$165 at eLUXURY.

I just bought this tie a couple of days ago. I was looking for the one with the single red bumble-bee; the stores were either sold out or only had the white bumble-bee option. Then I saw this, I took me a few seconds but it grew on me, There is a cluster of tiny red embroidered bumble-bees in the middle of the tie; the cool thing about this is that the cluster of bees graduate in color; the red is slightly faint at the top then gets bolder in the center and then fades again. It’ll take a close up in order for you to be able to see the bees but like I always say; those in the know, will know.
I wanted …

I am liking this pair of simple yet refined and polished sunglasses from Dior. With tinted lenses that provide 100% UV protection and plastic rectangular frames that wrap nicely around your face. And as the name suggests, you can wear these to an outdoor black tie event and not be mistaken for a member of the security team. Get this at eLUXURY for US$285. …
