Rolled Up Pants are already very popular among the fashionable cities as New York, Paris, London, Stockholm, Tokyo... They were recently re-lauched on SS09 colletions of important designers, as Marc Jacobs or Fendi.

But as a trend it usually takes some time to be part of the daily look of a random trendy guy, and for me it's not an easy trend to responde, it was kind of a risk taken... But let's keep ourselves updated on some street looks, 'cause it's actually the best way to see whether or not the trend is accepted.

Ray Smith’s smart stilish writer for Wall Street Journal has written on his weekly article:

“Fans of the flood point out that it’s practical in warm weather, like rolling up sleeves on a long-sleeved shirt. Michael Williams, a New York-based menswear publicist, says higher pants also show off one’s shoes and unique details on the underside of rolled-up pants.”

Somehow... I think I agree with him...

Denim Shorts for Her

Summer's on the way. Don't buy shorts, make 'em!

Summer is coming and nothing better than start finding ways to save some money for drinks and parties on the beach so best thing to do in advance is go on your closet and cut some of your jeans.

They will look completely as a new garment... and you've made it without paying for them!

Better: It's trendy!
