Gentlemen, there is one more reason for you to ditch that colorful backpack of yours this year (you do know that it jacks up your geek factor by a million folds and you are asking not to be taken seriously in all ways possible?) thanks to Stuart Vevers at Loewe. Loewe to Spain is Hermes to France or Valextra to Italy and its pre-fall/winter 2009 collection for men sent me to the state of hyperventilation in the count of nano seconds.  I have been thinking about getting myself a bigger Amazona for the longest time but there are even more choices now. Look at that Calle 39. Victoria Beckham could not resist it and now it is available for men too!
