1.What type of music do you usually listen to?

I like vintage Rock, particularly from last century, music from that time has eternal value to me, in particular I love artists such as Marilyn Manson. I actually cherish the time when musicians really perfected their craft to create quality music. I think it’s important to appreciate the classics. 

2.What’s the inspiration behind your look today?

I love monochromatic looks, today I paired  my black leather bag to match black T-shirt and trousers, this feels cool and fashionable to me. I choose to have my pictures against a traditional Chinese background to contrast against my the neutral tones in my look.

3.What do you want to know more about when it comes to leather knowledge?

Real leather goods are relatively expensive compared to products made from cheaper materials. Therefore I would like to know how to properly take care of my leather items, so they last longer.
