As in so many other pieces, those small details make a whole lot of difference…</em></p> <p><em>While looking for a more classic boot, reminiscent of the Chelsea and versatile enough to sport with jeans, chinos or slacks, I came across this version from <a href="http://www.santosshoes.com/" target="_blank">Carlos Santos</a>. Perfect height sitting at the ankle, beautiful shade of brown leather, Goodyear welted soles and featuring a strap fastening that instantly caught my eye. The sleek silhouette is balanced by the metal buckles and leather straps making them appropriate for dressing up or down according to your mood or preference. The perfect allrounder that was missing from my footwear collection, these will be on heavy rotation to achieve that perfect worn in effect.</em></p> <p><em>Details: herringbone cotton jacket by Boglioli, MTO Thomas Mason Bespoke shirt, white jeans by Massimo Dutti, ankle boots by Carlos Santos, vintage silk pocket square and braided leather belt and watch by Daniel Wellington.</em></p> <p><em>Model and Styling: Miguel Amaral Vieira</em></p>http://beyondfabric.tumblr.com/post/50482695831http://beyondfabric.tumblr.com/post/50482695831Wed, 15 May 2013 07:55:16 +0100Strap Ankle Bootmenswearmen's fashionmen's styleWIWLooksankle bootsherringbone blazerwhite jeansBogliolimade to orderThomas Mason BespokevintageCarlos Santosmassimo dutticrib<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/c6923e7556fe6b5984d2641df596558f/tumblr_mmspe6OELV1qcf1bio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><em>I Love Ugly SS13 Leather Collection</em></p>http://beyondfabric.tumblr.com/post/50424713889http://beyondfabric.tumblr.com/post/50424713889Tue, 14 May 2013 16:51:58 +0100I Love UglySS13LeatherCollectionbagsaccessoriesweekenderdufflebackpackcaseluggage<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/4efe8f30a110a3a1a3cb28134668f8bb/tumblr_mmnpd5vHIY1qcf1bio1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><em>Van Noten…</em></p>http://beyondfabric.tumblr.com/post/50414270427http://beyondfabric.tumblr.com/post/50414270427Tue, 14 May 2013 12:35:13 +0100Dries Van NotenCarsenKhakiBlazermenswearcamocamouflagemen's fashionmen's styleSS13Wrong Weather<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/e5a2109a0c94dc0f816ee1d45004cb27/tumblr_mmr7qiEyOT1qcf1bio1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/65c439670596422056555891d53428c0/tumblr_mmr7qiEyOT1qcf1bio3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/fa70c6c14e2d5ea12e1fee78a7bd1945/tumblr_mmr7qiEyOT1qcf1bio6_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/88a1a36f141b236f9ddf8538f959d81c/tumblr_mmr7qiEyOT1qcf1bio5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/e9fe68bb56bf58ab8fc1742897b3faa5/tumblr_mmr7qiEyOT1qcf1bio4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><em><strong>Sneak Peek:</strong> </em></p> <p><em>Behind the Scenes with the <a href="http://driftwoodcollective.org/" target="_blank">Driftwood Collective</a>, shooting Take #2 of Beyond Fabric series.
