A man can dress quite simply in a t-shirt and jeans and with the right accessories he can have great style. Trainers are not your only choice and shoes are a great way to develop your style. I really love men in cool shoes. You have to be confident and have some attitude to wear cool shoes. You can wear almost any style with a pair of dark jeans. Men often stick with the same style, try something different and expect to be complemented by women – we notice shoes.
I think you can tell a lot about a man by his shoes. I love these Oliver Sweeney shoes – classic but very rock and roll.

Daisy de Villeneuve is the type of artist that once you start to recognize her work you’ll see it everywhere.
Her illustrations have a unique child like quality to them: I just love them!!! She’s designed Topshop’s quirky shoeboxes, customized Moet & Chandon bottles for Colette’s 10th anniversary, designed for Nike, the V&A Museum, has published 2 books and has done hundreds of other things. Every month you’ll see her work in one of the major fashion magazines.
So it’s not surprising that the Gap featured her in their Autumn Winter campaign and she will also be in the Holiday 2008 campaign for Christmas!
I asked Daisy de Villeneuve, a true fashion industry insider for a quote to use during my Viktor & Rolf fashion talk at the Barbican.
In your opinion, what’s the best way for someone to create their own distinct personal style?
The best way for someone to create their own distinct personal style is to be unique. Be original in your clothing choices, do not follow trends as you can end up looking like everyone else. I always like to take inspiration from other decades & mix my clothing to include vintage, designer & high street.

"The latest Nike Air Zoom Moire runners can connect to an iPod Nano through the soon-to-be released Nike Sportkit. The wireless Sportkit receiver plugs into the iPod which can then display graphical information on time, distance, pace, and calories burned. This data is received from a sensor in the shoe, with audible feedback provided through the earphones, e.g. Run Forrest run! Or, stop Forrest, just stop will ya?"
How cool is that? I’m starting to want an Ipod but I very old but very cute MP3 player.
