• While the industry is dominated by doll-faced, lanky females, male models with more classic looks tend to be the most successful. Fashionindie.com
• Sienna Miller has been busy attending premieres for her new flick G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, from Sydney to London, Berlin to Tokyo, and Seoul. One common theme I’ve noticed in her wardrobe is disheveled-chic, much like her street style. FabSugar.com

London Calling

From a tiger- eye ring to a silver zodiac bracelet, London-based jewelry company, Tateossian, offers men numerous choices when it comes to accessorizing their look. A double- loop brown leather bracelet (seen below) is a versatile piece that can go with jeans and a rugged t-shirt or it can be partnered with khakis and a collared shirt for 18 holes of golf.

Now gentlemen, if you are looking for something a little more noticeable, then I would choose the silver dragon necklace. (seen below) Personally, I believe that this piece of jewelry is the final touch for completing an outfit. A blazer and a button-up shirt with the top two or three buttons remaining undone, this way the necklace can be seen by all of its admirers.

Tateossian specializes in men’s unique jewelry. Their London jewelry collection includes men’s silver bracelets, trendy bracelets, leather bracelets, zodiac bracelets, military tag and pendant necklaces. Each fine item is carefully made and designed; presenting men with options that best suit their personal style.
