 photo aark-collective-2013-collection-4_zps151b47e4.jpg

High end, luxury watches are designed to last. They’re built for longevity so you know that it’s not just the designer name you’re paying for, but also the intricate detailing, the love and care in the expert craftsmanship and the quality materials that will give your watch extended life.

But great care is still needed if you want to preserve the beauty of your watch. Here is some watch care advice to keep your favourite time pieces looking as beautiful as they day you purchased them.

Top Tips for Watch Care

If you want to prolong the aesthetics and also the functioning ability of your chosen timepiece, take a look at our guidelines for watch care.

  • Avoid water damage – this is always one of the biggest threats to expensive watches and jewellery. If your watch is not water resistant, make sure you adhere to the strict instructions for cleaning and care. You must also remember that water resistant watches are not waterproof; these are two very different things. So unless stated otherwise, you should never participate in water sports wearing your watch.
  • Keep and eye on temperature levels – did you know that extreme heat or extreme cold could damage your watch? Try to avoid extreme temperatures and when storing your watch, make sure it’s in a cool, dry and safe place. Moisture in the air or damp can cause complications so always ensure you have a dedicated storage place that your watch can call home when it’s not on your wrist.
  • Don’t throw away the original packaging – always keep the original box it came in. Not only does throwing it away devalue the watch itself, but having a good storage box can keep your watch protected from the elements.
  • Clean your watch regularly – just like you would maintain your home or your car, watches and jewellery require cleaning too. Watches, including their straps, can be quite fragile and tough to clean. The best way to clean a watch is to use a soft cloth. Harsh cleaning materials can cause scratches so make sure you use lint-free cloths.
  • Avoid contact with chemicals – never use harsh chemicals when cleaning your watch. A soft cloth is usually sufficient but if you must use anything, use mild detergent or soap. Chemicals, solvents or even gases can case discolouration or deterioration to your watch.
  • Do not play sports with your watch on – most high quality watches are shock resistant to an extent these days. However, it is not recommended that you play sports or do anything too active whilst wearing an expensive watch. Shock can damage your watch so make sure you have a sports watch replacement before you begin your game / gym workout.

I simply pleased and loved checking out some sort of brand’s lookbook photos either fashion collections. Because these photos really amazed me and I usually learned from them when in regards on my fashion statements and even to photography. That’s why even every time a brand name or label had teamed up to the other companies for their lookbook I see to it that I can review and see the whole thing they’ve worked for us all. like for example this awesome lookbook that has a title of “Great Jones” from the brand Grungy Gentleman for Cole Haan brand that is includes on their both spring lookbook collection.

Their concept for this lookbook was indeed strong and I liked how they used the boxing gym as their location shoot because it’s gives more masculine elements that is suits for this collection, I must say.. Also, look at on those shoes. Those are really sick! am so eager to have one one now. Could anyone out there send me a pair of those shoes, please?? lol

Indeed, this lookbook is the most awesome web to print storefront I’ve ever since this year, 2013…

Anyway, another collaborative piece here from the 2 giant label,Keiichi Tanaami & Stussy, I think  Keiichi Tanaami brand is originated in Japan but am not sure though but the name it is, it’s like sound a local brand in the said country, Japan. Let me then check it and will update you again in here. Yeah! that was the piece, photo on the top, that the 2 companies had cooked for us this coming spring summer 2013, that of course includes on their spring summer capsule collection same year.

What do you think about this tee? dope or nope? for me this definitely dope because the design prints was indeed quirky and the material used, the clothe, was made of 100% cotton, I believed, that can gives warm and comfortable feeling on our end as we wear this on the summer season.

Fun Shopping at Ozzys

I love clothes and would often browse the internet for interesting online shops that sell everything from apparel to footwear. Aside from the fact that it is more convenient and easier to shop online, there are a lot of stores selling a wide selection of unique and chic products. My style is laid back, casual, and rugged yet fashionable so I tend to visit shops that cater to that kind of clothing. One of them is Ozzys. It entered the fashion scene in 1997 and has since expanded and became one of Scotland’s best independent clothing retailers. Their mixture of street and high street fashion is a hit especially among teenagers and young adults.

Ozzys has items for men, women, and kids. Customers can shop for items either by choosing departments like footwear, T-shirts, jackets and coats, tops, polo shirts, jeans, tracktops and bottoms, shorts, snowboards, hoodys, dresses, bags and many more or choosing by brand. Among the famous brands they have are Adidas Skateboarding, American Apparel, Carhartt, Converse, Diesel, Fila Vintage, Dr. Martens, Nike Apparel, Buffalo Jeans, Pepe Jeans, Vans Clothing, and Vans Shoes. Shoppers will be able to save money at Ozzys because they have a lot of items on sale. I happen to love Vans Shoes so I checked that brand right away. Sure enough there were Vans Shoes for sale – click here.

Most of the brand names and companies today are keep on releasing their own season collections, some were released their summer and spring collections already while others are still preparing their own creation. However, I think the most awaited collection of the year on each brands was this fall and winter collection because on this season we really have to think on what pieces that we should be wear off because we needed to consider the weather and at the same the pieces that can give comfortable feeling on our end.. And this is the challenge I think on each brands to come up and create such piece that can give warm to everyone one and at the same time it is still fashionable.

So far, Chaos Theory brand was the fewest brands that has released on their fall and winter collection for this year 2013. You may check their campaign ads on top for you to know on what pieces we should expect from them soon. I think, their pieces are these type of winter finds, however, the most I’d liked to this collection was, they used chino or khaki pants for pair off on their winter top that I find genius in a way…

As for today, I haven’t yet know the further details about this Chaos Theory 2013 Fall/Winter collection but soon enough as months goes by the brand itself will release an update where this collection will be come up to the market. Let’s all wait for that. Thanks!

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star High Tops (Red) $46USD

I actually missed this, where I can write want I want to this blog, Iamronel.com. Because as you review my previous post it’s like I relay on my paid posts one and I haven’t able to update the blog in the full review ( no link added to the post) That’s why I was too happy by doing this again. Anyway, here’s the other kpop fashion I’ve found online recently wherein the B2ST member named Hyunseung is rocking on this chucks red that has a price of $46USD in any retail stores and to the converse store itself. I may say, this chucks is quite expensive than to the other chucks available today in the market, though the kicks was quite usual but I think this can give you dopeness as you wear one..

Alright, that’s it for now and will try to update you more some kpop fashion and some other fashion collection for this heading seasons. Thank you and have a good day to everyone.

Fun Shopping at Blackleaf

Photobucket

I totally love shopping, be it the traditional way or online. But nowadays I tend to shop more online because it is easier, faster, and more convenient. I do not have to wake up early in the morning to avoid traffic or the long queues in the counter. There are also more items to choose from online. Plus, most items you see in online stores you do not see in malls. So the probability of seeing someone who has the same clothes as yours is very minimal. All you have to do after ordering is seat back and wait for your purchases to be delivered right at your doorstep.

I often look for shops where you can buy everything you need there. I browsed Blackleaf.com and saw so many things I would like to purchase. They have been in business for many years catering mostly to customers who are into action sports. They sell high quality products for men, women, and kids at affordable prices. Among the items they have are apparel (tops, shirts, jeans, pants, jackets etc.), accessories (watches, gloves, belts, socks etc.), footwear (boots, shoes, slippers, sandals etc.), equipment (ski helmets, ski gloves, first aid kits, snow goggles etc.), and bags (handbags, luggage, messenger bags, purses etc.). They have an abundance of popular brands at Blackleaf.com like Billabong, carhartt, Converse, Eastpak, Havaianas, Hurley, Merrell, LRG Clothing, JanSport, Oakley, Quiksilver, Roxy, Vans and many more.

Blackleaf.com ships their products the same day they are ordered. Delivery on smaller items is usually via Royal Mail while larger items are sent via their network of couriers usually on a 48 hour delivery service. These are for UK deliveries while for international deliveries they deliver to BFPO addresses. Shoppers can pay through Sagepay, Paypal, Visa, Delta, Mastercard, Maestro, and Visa Electron. The website is perfectly safe to shop in so people can divulge their credit card information.

Stylish Clothes at Robert Fuller

The common misconception is that men hate shopping or they rarely shop. That may be the case for some but there are those who like to dress in style and are even more fond of clothes than women. The metrosexual man knows a lot about the latest in fashion and puts a lot of effort in his appearance, from his clothes to the style of his hair. Media plays an important part in all of these since people get to see male celebrities wearing stylish clothes and sporting chic hairstyles and therefore gets influenced by them. More and more men are also into online shopping.

A one stop shop for everything a man needs is Robert Fuller. It was founded in 1953 with the goal of selling quality men’s tailoring and outfitting. Over the years it has expanded and changed owners but still kept its practice of selling high quality products which now includes casual wear. They actually have clothing in all occasions. The company’s excellent customer service is also one of the things they are proud of. Shoppers can purchase items by category (Outerwear, Sweatshirts, Knitwear, Shirts, Jeans, Polo Shirts, T-shirts, Jackets & Blazers, Shoes and Boots, Bags, Wallets, Cufflinks, Shorts etc.) and by brand (Armani Collezioni, Circle of Gentlemen, Hugo Boss, Natural Selection Denim, Paul Smith, Polo Ralph Lauren, Robert Graham and many more). They also have Eton shirts, the classic British brand known for designing and manufacturing stylish men’s clothes.

Robert Fuller delivers not only in UK but also all over the world. For customers in the UK who has orders of over £750 delivery is free while international orders should be over £1000 to avail of free delivery. The company makes sure that deliveries are made the soonest possible time. Payments can be made via Paypal, American Express, Visa, Sagepay among others.
