TOUCHES OF B&O PLAY H7 – THE PREMIUM WIRELESS HEADPHONES

Anson Low one comments

As you all may have known or for those who didn’t, I am like the biggest fan of B&O products, with two great reasons – designs and sounds. The sophisticated design and amazing sound of these headphones give me goosebumps!

No matter if BeoPlay H7 is placed on your head or around your neck, it will feel as good as it looks. They must be the most comfortable premium headphones I’ve ever owned. And this time B&O Play brings you the Bang & Olufsen signature sound WITHOUT THE CORD! YES, THEY ARE NOW WIRELESS!

The coolest new feature of these wireless headphones is the magic touches for me. Even the slightest touch puts you in full control of BeoPlay H7. You can use the touch interface to answer a call, change song or adjust the volume! The touch interface even works if you are wearing gloves, like seriously?!

Not only that, BeoPlay H7 features advanced battery technology with up to 20 hours of wireless playtime. The battery can be swapped in a snap or charged via USB. If the headphone runs out of power and you still want to use them, simply plug in the cord to keep enjoying your music. 🙂

Overall, BeoPlay H7 is just highly recommended. The sound clarity is superb, the bass response is not too heavy and therefore you can hear all instruments and vocals clearly. Try it out from their stores and you will experience the luxurious sounds!

GUIDE TO STYLE: NORMANN COPENHAGEN BLOCK TABLE

Anson Low No Comments

I found this Block Table from Normann Copenhagen few months back and I totally fell in love with it. I have always been a big fan of Scandinavian interior design and I thought this would be a perfect fit with my new home. It also comes in several colours, including the new dark blue which I love a lot!

I find this Block Table so versatile that I can use it for office, bedroom or as a mini bar in my lounge?! 🙂

blocksidetabledetails

It’s a neat bedside table for a minimalist. You can put your daily essentials on it and you can wake up everyday as a sartorialist.

Alternatively, it could also be great for your office where you can store your books and some snacks to get through your busy day – it’s great for someone who love munching like me, but I will have to work hard in the gym after!

But my favourite usage for this Block Table is definitely the MINI BAR!!! Sorry pals if you are not a drinker.

If you like to drink, drink in style, and responsibly! I hope you are now inspired by my guide to style and for all the stylish gentlemen out there, check out Normann Copenhagen’s social media handles.

GENTLEMAN AT A FARM

Anson Low No Comments

What do you wear at a farm? Boots? Wellies? A hat? Why not a pair of white sneakers and suit?! We can always go dapper at farm! 🙂

jacobholston2

Jacob Holston’s suit played the perfect role for this when I went to check my crops (not really my crops and it’s winter now in UK!). The suit is made of 100% Italian fine wool and very light material. Love the effortless design and it’s ideal for casual/business meeting, low profile and yet presentable.

Pasotti’s luxury umbrella keeps you dry and also makes your minimal outfit look opulent!

THE MONOCHROME

Anson Low No Comments

I’m not a monochrome blogger, but I am fell in love with the monochrome look during this winter, maybe it’s the dull weather in UK?

cos2blog

The whole look is basically from COS, which is a fashion brand for women and men who want modern, functional, considered design. I would say they do have the ‘monochrome’ aesthetic, not entirely, but generally they do have black and white clothing and accessories.

paulhewittwinter cosshoesblog

Having said that,  their clothing details are the elements that you need paying attention to. The fabrics that they used have nice texture and interesting visual effects too. The Wool Melange Coat is just timeless to me for the modern men. And your style can’t go wrong with a pair of white leather sneakers nowadays! Oh yes, you have caught me! My look may not be so monochrome with a touch of Paul Hewitt’s Signature Line watch.

Hope you like the new theme for my website too! More categories will be coming soon including interior design! 🙂

THE VISIONIST X KOH LIPE

Anson Low No Comments

It has been nearly 2 months since I last written a blog post. I have been very hectic in past 2 months with moving and traveling, hence the delay! Here’s a quick update with you guys for my trip on Koh Lipe Island in Thailand.

kohlipe1

This island is amazing, full of nice people, good food and great vibe. If you are looking for a summer getaway, this could be one of your option!

kohlipe34 kohlipe2

The sand is as soft and as white as it looks, and the water shades of turquoise. There aren’t much dead corals there, so it’s a bliss to walk on the beach! The food is cheap, and plenty of options for seafood. Cheap beer, cheap food, what else do you need on your holiday? There’s a walking street on the island which has a great vibe for night life. Live bands and music can to be your great companions at night too!

It was a very pleasant experience staying in The Hoxton Hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room and shower room were super tidy and clean. There’s nothing negative about this hotel in all honesty, and I love the fact that they have MANY sockets in the room. You don’t have to fight for socket with anyone in there. 🙂

Giorgio Armani  and BFI London Film Festival has gathered 4 talented schools and produced 4 inspiring short films. It was my honour to attend the Films of City Frames global premiere which took place in BFI Southbank with special Ambassador, Dame Helen Mirren and followed by a panel discussion moderated by esteemed journalist Tim Blanks. I was very impressed by students as the standard of the films was as good as professional filmmakers in my opinion. The films have presented laughter, motivation, inspiration and love.

#SEDUCETHERAIN WITH SWIMS

This Autumn I will be seducing the rain with Swims outfit – Fairbanks Parka, Barry Workboot, and the Welded Backpack.

swimsautumn4

Fairbanks Parka is the ‘all in one’ coat for the Autumn/Winter. It is waterproof, windproof, well it’s basically Autumn/Winter-proof for me. The parka has many compartments and therefore it is perfect for outdoor activities such as hiking, fishing, camping, etc. I also think that it is an excellent daily coat for a city gentleman, especially with the weather we get in UK. There’s real lambsfur inside the fully adjustable tube hood that keeps your neck warm and comfortable.

swimsautumn6 swimsautumnbackpack

The brand new series of bags and backpacks from Swims combines the advanced fully waterproof welding technique with an easier leisure look than usually associated with these kinds. Now you can leave your bag anywhere wet and do not fear for your contents, or bring ice cubes and refreshments perfectly contained to the nearest retreat. Safe travels!

swimsautumn5 swimsautumnboots

The exterior of Barry Workboot is made of water-proof treated nubuck leather and water-proof mesh. The inner side of the boot is made of soft and moist-absorbing lycra lining. They are super comfortable and stylish at the same time.

THE VISIONIST X FITBIT

Anson Low No Comments

Fitbit designs products and experiences that fit seamlessly into your life so you can achieve your health and fitness goals. After wearing my smart design Fitbit Flex for a week, I can officially say that I am 60% fitter already, or I am 60% more active than before to say to least.

fitbit1

The biggest improvement of my fitness routine is my cardio workout. Truthfully, I have never been a big fan of cardio exercises because I struggle easily with my breathing. I tend to skip it even though I am fully aware of the importance of it to stay healthy. While maintaining my weight training exercises, I managed to force myself to walk more throughout the day as well as hitting treadmill on alternate days.

During the working hours, I sit in front of my computer most of the time. With Fitbit Flex, I get to track my daily steps goal with ease. Fitbit Flex is directly in sync with my phone and it tracks every step that I take. It has five lights that indicates the progress towards your daily target. Double tapping on the wristband will show you the percent daily achievement of your steps goal. Easy huh! fitbitflexlight

Personally, I neglect things that I need to do due to my own laziness. Health is one of my biggest negligence this year as I have been very busy with work, new ventures and my blog. I even rely on my phone to remind me to drink more water! Hence, Fitbit Flex has definitely helped me in fitness side of my lifestyle. Yes, I will have to spend more time to push myself becoming active physically but this has also helped in keeping my mind sharp and fresh. It can also track your sleep activity, however I am not using it currently because I don’t feel like I have the need for it. You will be able to see all the information with Fitbit app.
