Issey Miyake showed at the Le Carrousel du Louvre – Salle Le Nôtre* on October 2nd of this year and we should all be excited.
The first time I ever heard the name Issey Miyake I was selling men’s fragrance, and then I discovered that he has his own crazy world of fashion and expression.
Every chance we get to see his work we have another chance to marvel at this his off-kilter point of view, his bent towards technology, and the crisp lines that influence creates.
I know not everyone can travel to France to see a fashion show, but what a joy it would be to see his work in person!
As Fall comes in you can wear all the right clothes and wear all the wrong colors.
Men this season are always expected to be in a Dark Blues, Dark Browns, Vlack and Dark Greys. I know, I know, you need color in your outfit. I’ve even said “You need a little color in your look.”

A men’s brooch. I know, when you think brooch you think of the one your Grandmother willed to your Mother and your sisters are already fighting over who’s going to get it. No, not that kind.

The other day I was standing outside my 9 to 5 talking to a colleague and she totally made me want to recommend these shoes again. She had looked online for months trying to find more pairs of Born shoes that I could work in. Finally, she made the discovery! She dropped much less money than she would have on fancier shoes and even found a pair for her Husband. To say the least, I was jealous of her husband.
She had gotten him the Born Digg men’s shoe. This is sort of like a Merrell only a little prettier and most definitely more comfortable. She kept telling me how he had seen a million shoes like this, but none of them from a brand that focused on comfort.
