  • Weather: Sunny (19°C)
Today I bring you a warmer ensemble, highlighting my favourite pants of SS2010. I've also added a few accessories to characterize today's look!Here we have an amazing pair of roll-up distressed layered pants that are perfect for a warm summer day. Open-toe sandals and opaque sunglasses accessorize the look. (All from Dolce & Gabbana SS2010)
I doubt many people walk around shirtless (sans at the beach), so a sheer v-neck opening sweater with rolled up sleeves would suit this smart casual summer look well. (Dior Homme SS2010)

The sheer black sweater is a basic that's perfect to frame a showpiece necklace. For this look, I've chosen the Gucci Bamboo Cross worn on a long chain from the FW10/11 collection.
A good add-on to the look is this chic take on a driver's hat (Dolce & Gabbana SS2010)
Duffels don't always mean travel and this large Guccissima leather duffel in black is a great primary bag for the summer and for this look (Gucci Classics Collection). *the image for the black version was unavailable, but I assure you that it does exist*

Remember to email me any comments or ensembles that you love!

Welcome to Ensemble Magnifique: your daily fashion haven!

I go by the name Odin, and I'm an everyday poor university student, but I can't get enough of runway fashion. Although I can't afford high-end runway fashion, I've created this blog to share all my fashion knowledge with all of you. I hope to inspire everyone to dress and potentially help people that can afford runway pieces to buy the "Ensemble Magnifique" (Magnificent Outfit)

Everyday, I will post a collection of pieces hand-picked (by me) from high-end runway shows to compose a magnificent ready-to-wear outfit (L'ensemble Magnifique). I'm sorry that I can't show you all the pieces worn together, but like I said, "I'm a poor student". Comments are greatly appreciated, and I encourage aspiring fashionistas to send me their favourite looks as well. Send any emails to kevinbenjaminsung@gmail.com with the heading, "ENSEMBLE MAGNIFIQUE".

My dream is to own these looks and express to the world what great fashion can look like!
