Black vertical Cabas is a nice minimalistic option. I don't think it would need any charms even when worn with the logo hidden.


Due to the material being untreated canvas, I would spray some of that nano protect material so that it would be more resistant to the elements.

That black vertical Cabas gave me a Balenciaga vibe, so it made me curious to see what they offer. The backpack with a shoulder strap reminds me of the shoulder strap option of the Celine Biker backpack.

I don't think the Celine shoulder strap is long enough to crossbody.

Actually the Triomphe canvas monogram vertical Cabas reversed isn't that bad. The tan leather strap does help to visually pull the eyes up.

I feel like I would always see this as a "dressy" sneaker as I saw a lot of older men gravitating to this black leather upper and white sole combination when trying to avoid wearing dress shoes but still look North American-presenatable.

Thorns that's often my get-up, even today, I'm wearing a grey striped Marin sweater and black Diors with that white sole, ha!

I've been trying to get the Celine black Marin with the buttons for a little while, but always out of stock in my size. I like the white one and is excellent quality if people like knitwear with some substance. It'll definitely hold up to the windy seas of Brittany if that's the idea.

Two other random points - I want that green mug in the Johnny Depp picture. Great trove there btw.

Kieran - did you end up receiving the grey cashmere sweater? How's it fitting on you, as I recall you had some hesitation on the length.

This small messenger/crossbody bag could be another easy candidate for an everyday bag

I'm 100% not a fan of this trench. Way too tacky. Logomania'd to the max

Kind of off the Celine topic, but looking back, when Hedi styles scarves for his winter seasons, does he typically double wrap around the neck and throw it over the shoulder? Reason I ask is because I own a few scarves but picked up a AW05 Dior Homme scarf (super long one) untouched for a great deal and this thing is insanely long even for me being over 6’.

I recall a few single wrap necks and around the shoulder and a few super lose double or triple neck wraps with both sides forward. I personally rock a single neck wrap and around the shoulder, keeps me warm as **** and I think it looks best. Sometimes I'll tuck my scarf into my jacket if it's windy or for some reason getting in the way

fw04, fw13's older brother, with the same scarf style. It looks like it was loosely wrapped twice around the neck. It is folded a bit to reduce some bulk.

I feel like the scarf is wrapped twice around the neck tightly before dangling it in the back, similar to fw15.

fw04 shows a messenger bag option that's quite nice with wool coats. School boy feeling.

I feel like you can tie a knot too by looping the second time underneath then above the first loop and dangle the end behind you.
