Style

It was a rainy night last Thursday and after having dinner at a fastfood restaurant along Ayala Avenue in Makati, my date and I realized that we were both stranded. There were no cabs to be found and we saw long queues and a plethora of people waiting at shuttle terminals.

PGG Forums member Marius, was asking me last time if there is an inexpensive casual shoes that I could recommend for a student like him.

One of the primary reasons why we love going to concerts, parties and clubs is because the music is so good and so lively that you could feel the bass and vibration of sound. That's exactly the reason why I bought a Pioneer Component back in 2011. I wanted to turn our house into Republiq whenever I feel the need to listen to music. But how do you carry the vibration and bass with you when you are traveling?

What exactly is smart casual? It is perhaps one of the most confusing dress codes ever invented because of the fact that it is so loosely-defined. There's no concrete definition and sometimes, it is mostly based on how you interpret it.

Finally, after 5 years of waiting, Gatsby heard the voice of the Pinoy Guy Guide community and brought the Moving Rubber here in the Philippines.

Cork. It's a piece of material made out of wood that gives us a hard time to open up a bottle of wine. When cork is put together as a flat surface, we have a cork board where you can pin announcements. But when you use cork in men's fashion, specifically in footwear, you've got Birkenstock.

In a time when all cities around the world are banning plastic bags and replacing them with brown paper bags, it seems that saving the environment is the next "in" and most sensible thing to do.

As a kid, I grew up in Kenya, a former British colony. It's a long story but I remember during my preparatory days, I used to go to some kind of an international school where students of different nationalities and mixed races studied together.

I have good news for you guys. Especially for those who are big fans of Marks & Spencer like me. And if you are not a fan yet, maybe you'll change your mind after reading this.

Local brand Solo has been really successful with their comic book prints on their apparel. They've done it well in the past few years with Larry Alcala, Kenkoy and Pupung collection. This 2013, they are launching yet another comic book-inspired clothes from Manix Abrera's Kikomachine.

It has been raining heavily for the past three days now and times like these, I wish I could have just stayed home and did everything I wanted to do. Unfortunately, I'm no longer a student and I don't work at a government office so I'm not part of the crowd that gets classes and work suspended.

Unless you live in the cold mountainous region of Baguio City, there are only a few days in a year when you can wear a jacket as part of your get-up here in Manila. One would be during the cold months of November and December leading up to Christmas. And the other would be during the rainy and stormy months from June to September.

Hello August! It might seem a little late to greet my birth month, August, now that we are almost half-way through it and getting closer and closer to my birthday. But it's never too early at this time of the year, for the launch of the latest styles for Fall and Holiday 2013.

If you've been reading PGG for quite some time, you might have noticed that I'm such a huge fan and collector of headphones. I love music. I breathe music. I can't live a single day without music.

Has anyone here been to Azta Urban Salon? Just for the record, these guys seem to have one of the best hairstylists around. If you recall, I got my first-ever ombre highlights with them back in 2012 and I've never been as delighted.

Okay, so I got a lot of you guys curious about men's formal wear during my recent post on Bespoke Men's Suits. That's good as evidenced by the lively comments you'll see there. So this time around, I went back to TIÑO Bespoke Tailoring Shop to feature their barongs plus a little more of their products.

Ever since pricey slippers became popular to the urban crowd, a lot of us guys have totally forgotten about sandals.

Suppose you were asked: "When is the time you feel most good-looking, hot or sexy?" What would you say?

What? Avon for Men? You ask. I had the same initial reaction too.

Good news guys. Petrol, one of my favorite men's wear and lifestyle brand is co-presenting one of our most-awaited annual events: FHM's 100 Sexiest Women Victory Party!

We love the top two sportswear brands. I mean who doesn't love Nike and Adidas which are being endorsed by our favorite athletes? But here's my little style secret that I would like to share with you guys.

About two weeks ago, I woke up feeling nervous. I was on my way to work but couldn't find my wallet. Heck, I do not even know if it was snatched, stolen or misplaced after my date the previous night.

I've talked about button fly pants in the past, but this one here from Mossimo which I bought a couple of weeks ago is my very first one.

What's up with pink basketball shoes and socks these days?

Summer is about to end. Do you feel it? I'm sure you do because even though the weather is still pretty hot, it is starting to rain frequently in the afternoon.

British luxury clothing retailer Marks & Spencer recently launched their Men's Summer Wear 2013 at Shangri-La Mall in Shaw Blvd. I was invited to check out their latest collection.

One of the overused catch-phrases over the last few years is "Like A Boss". I'm pretty sure you've heard it. You've heard it on Facebook, Twitter and even on everyday speech among your friends.

Dockers is on sale from May 1-15. 20% off on all iron-free and never iron khakis.

Some people say that once you become a family man and get kids, you are no longer as "cool" as you were when you were single. But this photo below which I stumbled upon on Pinterest, proved all those people wrong.

Let's do an experiment. A mix and match style experiment where I'll be wearing some of the apparel and footwear that I recently posted here on Pinoy Guy Guide.
