They Breathe Fire

So what is the one most attractive thing a man can do by far? Smoke, now of course it's not as simple as that. It takes a certain man to do it in a certain way. The way I see it, just seeing him pull out a fag and smoke it while talking on his phone is not enough. When he sits in a dimly lit area in absolute seclusion staring with incredible intensity at what seems to be nothing (out a window or at something outside), ignoring all factors and noises around him. Just thinking, thinking and smoking or he could be not thinking at all. What he is thinking about, you don't know and all at once you want to know and don't care. All you're sure about is he looks like art incarnate. Nothing about him hints in the slightest about who he is (although you may know him) he seems like the perfect stranger. Now you just stare, stare at the white puffs of smoke leaving him. Every noise in the form of a brilliant scuffle or breath, becomes more than what it is. Now I'm not sure if it's the smoking I like or the intesity of a mans thinking. Either way I LOVE IT. If you don't believe me be on the look out the next time you go out.- Photo credit: Hedi Slimane

Its so sexy I love this blog!

joana said...

see? so nice! really...
and about your post. i do find it alluring to see a boy smoke in a certain way, but i so hate the smell of it afterwards.

Champagne said...

The pictures are wonderful. I'm not really a huge fan of smokers(no matter how hot they are). But I can kind of get what you mean. In the old days of Hollywood, you really couldn't go anywhere with out seeing a handsome male lead in a movie puffing on a cig,


P.s: Thanks so much for your sweet comment, totally made my day. ^_^

autumn's darkroom said...

I agree. I dislike smoking, but it can be soooo sexy. Like this:

Yeah, I'm obsessed :)

carolinevixen said...

OMG this is post is so meant for me. Is like you read my mind I was just thing that when I saw this cute boy walking home today!

<3

TheMinx said...

I strangely agree. There's something very James Dean about it, no? Even though I hate cigarettes, I used to be with a guy who smoked and it seriously turned me on lol.

Great blog :)

M said...

i love staring at HOT men when they smoke... that's it.
HAHAHA

girllll, SMOKING IS BAD FOR YERRR CREDIT! lol

Val said...

I must admit that it's incredibly sexy when a long and lean heidi slimaneish boy smokes. Though I can't really imagine myself dating a smoker, these pictures are definitely tempting me.

Love your blog!

Fashion Tidbits said...

meh, unfortunately for me a man with a ciggy never turns me on.

p.s would you like a blog link exchange? i've already added you :)

PUG and PIPS said...

does anyone know who the first model is? He is stunning!

The first time I saw my boyfriend, he was leaning against a wall smoking a cigarette opposite to the shop I was working in...I instantly fell in love! haha. I remember is to vividly
But now we have both quit and are healthy and better off for it!
Just thought i'd share my little story :P

Cheryl said...

Agreed! Even one of my best friends who hates smokers agrees with me after seeing a picture of Gaspard Ulliel with a cigarette.

P.s - I love those pictures of Louis Garrel.

jaime said...

aww thank you so much for being patiet with me! ah i finally got it fixed! :) oh and i so agree with you on what you wrote! and i especially love the first picture!

nv said...

i love it when guys in a band look for a smoke right after a set and it just, *Sigh* so hot. HAHA.

jaleh said...

ASH STYMEST. I LOVE HIM. I AM HOPING HE TURNS 18 SOON hahaha i am such a creep.

but i agree completely! i think smoking is a disgusting habit but sometimes it just looks so so attractive :/

elisabeth said...

oh my gosh, i so have to agree!but yeah it definately is in the WAY they smoke, it can either be a massive turn off or make them look really hot.

hrose said...

i have no words just
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....

like you said, it could be the intensity of thinking, or it could be the smoking. the hedi slimane boys look so incredibly HOT in these pics, especially louis garrel.
i have me a weakness for the french men, and these pics of louis are some of my absolute favourite of him ever. such a contemplative beauty.

thankyou for the lovely comment. it really made me smile. i'm flattered that you like my blog, and would like to say that i adore yours. la lanphear, the olsens and then hedi slimane and smoking (hot) boys!??! how could i not love it.

hope you had a lovely weekend.

Jenny H. said...

Linnéa said...

Fantastic!!! Love the photos <3<3

J'Adore Fashion said...

some people look kinda cute with a cigar, but i don't like or condone smoking--the smell is quite irritating and makes it difficult for me to breath.

thanks dear for wanting to draw me, such an honor because with what i have seen that u drew--thats a WHOLE lot of talent. i will patiently wait no matter how long.

xoxo

Miranda said...

great photos
i can see the attractiveness in a guy's mysterious air and intensity while smoking
but i would never date a smoker, if i had a choice
i find it rather unattractive personally

Ess Elsie. said...

I'm completely with you on this. Guys with cigarettes are just so damn sexy. For me, throw in some tattoos on the arms and I'm drooling. ... Like that first pic. GAH. I don't even mind the Hello Kitty mask.

chocandcinnamon said...

Great pics!

this wheel's on fire said...

i'm not a fan of smoking, but these guys are hot ;)

a cat of impossible colour said...

Now I'm picturing Aragorn being dark and mysterious in Fellowship, smoking in a corner of the Prancing Pony. Mmm. :D

Yvonne said...

YES! Bill & Tom is like the cutest hottest twins in the world!<3 And omg, we even share the same love for Hedi Slimane, justice, kings of leons, css, kate nash! We must meet some days!! :)

Miss Karen said...

You know, even though I don't like smoking (and I can't stand when people walk with a cig in their hand, I have to dodge the ashes that fly onto my clothes grrr!)I think there's nothing sexier than seeing a guy smoke in that oh so cool way that you described. I love your photos here too. I'm going to go back and stare at them some more :D

CULTURE CREATORS said...

Song of Style said...

I normally agree with u on most of ur posts, but i'm going to have to disagree with this one.
I guess its cus i hate cigarettes, but its a huge turn off when a guy smokes. i like my men smoke free.
i guess its a good thing. more smoker men for u, more smoke free men for meeh! yay! haha j/p, my bf is enough for meeh.

CHARMAINE said...

thanks for your comment! you are so sweet :) i have the same take on guys smoking the a certain way that makes you just swooon over them... baaaahhh. where is my little schmoker boy at? hahahah

CHARMAINE said...

kat.george said...

That boy in the first picture is so beautiful.

Nice blog!

Gerry said...

It is absolutely true. Men with fags (haha) are just HOT. Except... I go to an art school and practically everybody smokes here so the effect is kind of lessened.

Women that smoke are kind of hot but dirty at the same time. Or maybe it's that all the hot women smoke?

Ah... The mysteries of life.

Princess-Lloyddia said...

I think you blog is "Brilliance in the form of a post."
and i'd have to say i agree with you i love seeing guys leading on the side of a building wearing leather jackets smoking a cig

Divinity Avenue said...

I knew a kid who started smoking just because all his friends did and he was SO bad at it. You could tell he was trying to look a certain way and he just couldn't. It cracked me up.

kristaaaay said...

wow. i cant believe how incredibly dead on you are with this. all i did was google image search "burberry spike necklace" and found this blog entry and now im all distracted and flustered thinking about men smoking. i cant believe how many times i have had these thoughts. and then strangely im obsessed with the model in the 1st pic and now im just freaked out that google search infiltrated my mind.
