Paris, New York, Milan, my beloved hometown London and now it seems Compton. Ok so maybe a bit far fetched, it is not like you are going to see a host of boutiques setting up shop there, but Adam Kimmel’ s S/S 2011 collection sure did show the world, how to do Compton ‘style’ fashionably (whoever thought it eh). And, surprisingly enough it works. It looks like Kimmel is bringing ‘Compton’ back.
Personally I think the collection is quite refreshing. So many collections seem to have lost the masculine touch and have all gone waaaay too feminine in my opinion.
Unless you are JLS, I don’t think everyone can carry off certain designs. Take a look below.

Kimmel’s collection shows that men need to dress like men even if a bit a hood, but it works. Although I reckon if men mix and match the pieces any man can pull off some of the pieces in this collection. Take a look at some of my favourite looks below.

It seems not only did Snoop shine at Glastonbury, he has also turned or is turning into a very unlikely style icon.
Ladies would you be horrified if your man/date turned up wearing some of Kimmel’s collection or is this a look that needs to be mixed and matched? Or is quite simply straight hood? Let me know your thoughts to sack or hire the stylist. xoxoSTSxoxo
