Scandinavian fashion house Filippa K present their Spring/Summer 2013 MAN collection in this monochromatic lookbook.

Filippa K isn’t a name commonly found on our pages at The Daily Street, but this clean, well presented collection is something that appeals to a broad spectrum of UK menswear and streetwear enthusiasts alike. As streetwear gets smarter and smarter, the more accessible fashion collections such as this open up to a new audience, ready to reinterpret it.

Next season’s collection from Filippa K is an effortlessly clean and smart approach to casual menswear, presented perfectly in the shape of these lookbook shots. Crew neck sweaters of different sorts feature pretty heavily, and the button trench is a real highlight. The moleskin bomber jacket is sure to be a popular option from this collection and we look forward to seeing more from the collection and the brand as a whole. Although the suiting looks on point also, it’s all about the more casual side of the collection for us.

Expect to see this starting to work it’s way into stores in the UK in January 2013.

if you could end world-hunger and then still have a ridiculous large sum of cash left over, this is what I would want for christmas. (wishing things for christmas always makes me feel so guilty, it¨s like, “ok if I buy something nice for myself everyonce in a while because I’ve earned it.. but getting luxury items just to celebrate the birth of christ? Know what I mean?):

Elastic waist trousers from COS. They are “cut to sit below the waist, these trousers are made from smooth washed cupro. Tapered at the ankle, with a partially elastic waistband that gathers at the back, they are a relaxed fit. They have slanted side pockets and a front zip fly.” (www.cosstores.com)

Russian dolls by Lanvin. I actually collect babushkas and this would make a wonderful contribution to my collection!

Soft knitted cardigan by Filippa K.

Single jersey v-neck tee by Filippa K, yes I do need some basics!

I love this particular Voluspa candle; maison blanc; blanc suede. Last christmas I got it  from my daughter and I absolutely loved it. It smells a bit like mens perfume (which I love)!

Oh, and Santa, if you threw in one or two items from Chloé too I wouldn’t object at all!

Dress: Zara, Boots: Scorett, Nude top: Filippa K

Yesterday I wanted to wear something a bit more fun when we went out for dinner and since I only used this dress once in Florence I thought it was time to pull it out of the closet again. I love how voluminous the skirt of the dress is while the upper part is tight and almost totally see through, which is also why I matched with a nude top under.

Here is the jacket.

So that means that I have showed my self as a good example on how to treat the world we are living on with a little more respect!

What this jacket will be is a a dream, because who like heavy jacket.

This will be light as the summer breeze.

Do you see it?

This maybe the shortest post there ever have been on this page,

but when I over slept for work and lack so much energy to do everything else, so that is why I need to make it short.

In the other hand the little black dress is making you look timeless,

and the best thing about a post about the little black dress will make everything easy.
It will to get your energy back into your body and into your wardrobe anyway.

Sorry!

Filippa K.

Hope it fulfilled your expectations anyway,

and left something for the imagination as well.

Sorry again for the short post!
