Stylish Man: Lapo Elkann

A very stylish man, Lapo Elkann, a New York-born Italian industrialist, currently works for Fiat Automobiles. Vanity Fair listed Lapo in its Best Dressed Hall of Fame of 2009.

I admire his style of classic italian with touch for bold colors.

He got my vote for the '25 most stylish men in the world, 2010' by GQ.com

Wish List: Vintage Glasses

I have been looking for a new pair of reading glasses, particularly in a vintage black or tortoise tone, a pair of Tom Ford's would be nice. But it is so difficult to find a pair that suit my face.

Classic picture of Yves Saint Laurent in Paris in 1957, the day before the opening of his first collection for Christian Dior. He looks so stylish in this dapper suit and these glasses.

Check Out: The Best Tea in the World

I am a coffee person, but I also truly enjoy drinking tea.

Mariage Frères is my favorite tea house and, in my opinion, is the best tea in the world. A cup of Mariage Frères tea with sconces would make an afternoon so perfect.

I have quite a few Mariage Frères tea in my collection. And these are my three favories:

Marco Polo (flovered black tea with Chinese and Tibetan fruits and flowers, brilliant bouquet smell)
Thé à l'Opéra (green tea enhanced with fragrance of red berrries and spices)

Black Orchid (smooth black tea with spicy vanila)

A cup of Black Orchid at home on a Sunday afternoon :-)

BOF Favorite: Monogram Vernis Animaux Collection

Another entry about LV items for this month.

My last trip to Louis Vuitton shop, I spotted these cute coin purses. It is the new Monogram Vernis Animaux collection being released in 2010 to celebrate the Valentine’s day.

The collection inspiration is from Gaston Vuitton’s wife who used to run a toy store on Avenue Marceau from 1945 to 1970. Materials are mix between Monogram Vernis, Monogram Canvas and snake skin, and they come in six different designs including bird, rooster, rabbit and squirrel.

They are so cute!

This new coin purse collection reminds me of Louis Vuitton's Conte de Fees collection in 2002. Collaboration between Marc Jacob and artist Julie Verhoeven, the Conte de Fees collection brought the magic of fairly land with mythical animals in the mix of signature LV patterns.

Check Out: LV Trash Bag

Check out this Marc Jacob's reinterpretation of a trash bag for Louis Vuitton S/S 2010 women collection. It is called Raindrop Besace. I think it is a Cool idea...

BOF Favorite: LV Backpacks

Will backpack made a comeback this summer? Or maybe it has never left the fashion scene?

I am not a big fan of backpack. Eventhough I like the fact that a backpack adds an interesting element to your back, but it messes up your shirt and jacket you wearing.

These are the backpacks from Louis Vuitton Men Spring/Summer 2010 collections that I adore.
