Men's Style: How To Pull Off A BowTie !

Ever heard the saying, real men wear bow ties? Well its true! Believe it or not.
If you're a guy reading this, and you're not a fan because you can't really seem to make it work, you're not alone! Most guys feel that way. But they are back in so.....

Welcome To The Style Café !

Hello everyone!
Its a brand new year and I'm so excited to kick start this blog. We all love fashion (yes we do)..
Nowadays, there's no excuse for looking plain, especially with the fashion connoisseurs
emphasising the need to look stylish and unique. Too much work right?
Even the guys are not messing around.Gone are the days when guys wore those uninteresting jeans!





Be it a hobby or a passion, finding one's own identity to stand out in the crowd has become crucial to finding one's individuality.
Guess I don't need to bore you with the need for style, which is the one thing we all have in common.



So lets have fun talking about the latest trends, the emerging colours and prints, season staples, celebrity style, and all things fashion!
And on that note, I hope I don't disappoint you guys (fingers crossed)
