Al Pacino, asa cum nu l-ai mai vazut: Ravasit si ciufulit

http://www.flickr.com

Chiar daca este unul dintre cei mai cunoscuti actori de la Hollywood, si cel mai bine platit, anii nu l-au iertat nici pe Al Pacino.

Publicatia dailymail.co.uk dezvaluie cateva cadre in care actorul american este surprins intr-o impostaza nemaintalnita: ciufulit si ravasit, cu hainele neingrijite, chiar daca acesta a adoptat o tinuta all-black. Publicatia critica aparitia starului, "amendand-o" prin afirmatia "Actorul castiga peste 11 milioane de dolari pentru fiecare film, si nu-si poate permite un pieptene"

De asemenea, nu se stie daca actorul era constient de aparitia sa total iesita din tipare. Actorul a fost insotit de iubita sa, actrita in varsta de 31 de ani, Lucila Sola.

Bugetul de cumparaturi: Ce taie romanii de pe lista?

sxc.hu

Romanii renunta la haine, dar nu micsoreaza bugetul pentru mancare. Afla mai multe despre comportamentul concetatenilor in timp de austeritate financiara.

Cetatenii Romaniei intentioneaza ca in urmatoarele sase luni sa cheltuiasca mai putin pe haine, dar nu vor sa reduca bugetul alocat pentru produsele alimentare, potrivit unui studiu dat publicitatii si realizat de compania de cercetare Winkle.

Studiul, realizat in 12 tari, arata ca in Canada, Australia sau Marea Britanie, majoritatea populatiei considera consultarea unui medic ca fiind prima varianta atunci cand au o problema de sanatate, in schimb doar 23% dintre romani considera medicul prima optiune.

Un procent mai mare (30%) prefera sa consulte un prieten sau o cunostinta care are simptome similare si sa foloseasca tratamente alternative.
Cat au in plan sa cheltuie romanii in urmatoarea jumatate de an?

In privinta cheltuielilor pentru urmatoarele sase luni, romanii au spus ca intentioneaza sa aloce mai putin pentru cumpararea de haine, intentie apropiata fata de cea a consumatorilor din Germania si Olanda.

In ceea ce priveste cheltuielile cu mancarea, un procent redus dintre romani intentioneaza sa isi micsoreze bugetul (14%), situatie similara cu cea din Brazilia, China, Canada sau SUA.

Doar 5% dintre germani vor sa cheltuiasca mai putin pe mancare in urmatoarele sase luni.

Romanii sunt cei mai predispusi la consumul pe termen scurt, comparativ cu restul statelor analizate. Astfel, daca romanii ar avea de ales intre un minut in care ar putea lua gratis dintr-un magazin tot ce vor si a primi in fiecare zi timp de un an orice cantitate doresc dintr-un singur produs ales, 41% ar prefera prima varianta.

In urma romanilor se situeaza olandezii, dintre care 33% ar alege un minut de "cumparaturi gratis". La polul opus, doar 13% din germani ar alege prima optiune, in timp ce restul de 87% ar prefera sa primeasca gratis un anumit tip de produs un an.

O trasatura comuna pentru toate cele 12 tari in care s-a realizat studiul este afirmatia "a pierde banieste ca si cum as pierde pe cineva drag".

In comparatie cu celalalte tari, un procent mai mic din populatia Romaniei considera ca serviciile si tarifele oferite de banci sunt corecte si justificate si au incredere in banca cu care lucreaza.

Mai mult de o treime dintre romani (35%) - al doilea procentaj in randul celor 12 state analizate dupa Franta (36%) - vor sa scada cheltuielile de transport in urmatoarele sase luni. Aproape jumatate intentioneaza sa mentina acelasi nivel, iar restul de 17% sa creasca fondurile alocate in acest scop.

Romanii conduc clasamentul celor 12 tari in privinta procentajului de populatie care intentioneaza sa diminueze cheltuielile pentru asigurari, cu 44%, fiind urmati de brazilieni (42%) si rusi (38%).

Mai mult de jumatate dintre romanii consultati, respectiv 51%, intentioneaza sa taie in urmatoarele sase luni din cheltuielile pentru produse elctronice, un nivel destul de ridicat, apropiat de Canada (55%), SUA (54%) si Franta (52%).

In privinta reducerii cheltuielilor pentru comunicatii mobile, romanii cu 28% se situeaza aproape de germani (29%), olandezi (27%) si americani (27%). In timp ce 60% dintre romani intentioneaza sa-si mentina cheltuielile pe acest segment, 12% vor sa le majoreze.

Propuneri pentru iarnă de la Gant

Deoarece avem nevoie de surse de inspiraţie, pentru azi, am ales colecţia de la Gant. Având în vedere că iarna vine cu paşi repezi, este bine să avem nişte idei despre cum ne vom îmbrăca pentru că vom fi invitaţi la tot felul de evenimente.

Chiar dacă pe acest sezon, gama de nuanţe este puţin mai restrânsă, creativitatea nu are limite. Aici pot interveni factori precum layering, textură, combinaţii neobişnuite.

Am ales Gant deoarece este brandul preferat precum am precizat şi aici.

Cel mai mult mi-a plăcut că în unele ţinute predomină culoarea.

ESQUIRE:The High-Low Theory of Fashion Affordability

Some items in your wardrobe are always worth spending the extra money on. Some items in your wardrobe can usually be had at a bargain. Some items can go either way. Above, from our March issue fashion extravaganza, a breakdown of how you should sort your price priorities. One important note: Unless you're dressing up for a Very Important Meeting or dressing down for a day of fishing, your outfit at any given time should contain at least one high item and one low item. It helps throw things off center just a bit.

ESQUIRE:A Good Way to Spend $100: Handmade (Wooden) Shades

If the Memorial Day barbecues were any indication, the American man has learned his Wayfarer lesson. Welcome to Summer. Now, let's choose some shades that all your friends don't own already. We could suggest a great new pair from Ermenegildo Zegna, say, or Oliver Peoples, or any number of European brands that are updating the classics this season.

But let's stay closer to home for a second because small, new companies like Shwood, Capital, and Proof are taking those same timeless shapes and rendering them in a new material: wood. American trees, in fact, which are hand-carved in small batches to produce quality pairs (we're talking Zeiss lenses, in Capital's case) that are as affordable as they are one-of-a-kind; technically, no two pieces of tree are the same. For all three brands, prices top out near $150, which is a modest sum for an eccentric addition to your sunglass artillery. And, as an added weekend bonus, we're pretty sure they float (in pools, in punch bowls, in lakes — the ocean's at your own risk).

ABOVE: Bonnie & Clyde in Natural Cherry ($95) by Capital, wearcapital.com; AFTER THE JUMP: Bird in Zebrawood ($120) by Proof, iwantproof.com, Oswald in Walnut ($115) and Canby in Cherry ($98) by Shwood, shwoodshop.com.

ESQUIRE:(New) Persols: Right for The Longest Day of 2011

The brand Persol reminds us of Steve McQueen and classic 714s with the blue lenses, which were re-released late last year. But this summer, our mind is wandering to a new, limited-edition style (which was announced during the last Milan shows) and is just now landing on shelves. The Roadster, as it's called, was inspired by an automobile-inspired pair of sunglasses that Giuseppe Ratti first created in 1917, some 20 years before he launched his now famous company: Persol.

Though it's available in two models, the Roadster GT (above) in a glossy black with grey lenses is the sleekest option, updating — or, actually, backdating — the 649s and 714s by removing the keyhole at the bridge, adding metal detailing that's supposed to suggest vintage car grills, and incorporating slightly rounder lenses. All sunglass speak, roughly, for "badass."

And, as coincidence has it, great for The Summer Solstice. Originally intended for driving, the Roadsters also have special photochromatic lenses: If you head out and buy a pair now, the lenses will constantly adjust until the sun falls tonight (whenever that may be). Unfortunately, still no excuse for wearing them at night.

ESQUIRE:Ten Ceramic Watches You Should Consider Next

From bezels to entire cases, to matching bracelets, it's hard to find a watch company that's not into ceramic these days. And we're not talking pottery. This version of the magic clay is high-tech, strong, and nearly worthy of ballistics.

What does all that mean for your next watch? Compared to steel, this non-metallic solid is lighter, more scratch-resistant, and stronger. The list continuous: It's impervious to chemicals. It resists friction, abrasion, and high temperatures. In short, it's better, even if there's one thing it's not: cheaper. Still, as you browse our 10 picks for the best ceramic timepieces below — all offered in a brilliant matte black — remember that you're investing in the future. Even if these watches happen to outlast you.
