Part 2 of the t-shirt guide for Spring 2012 features 3 different t-shirts.

We have the first from Armani Jeans, a brand which has been producing streetwear and premium high street quality for a long time. The Armani label along with the quality brings the simple tee a bit more elegance. The second is an offering from Scotch And Soda, which has a vibrant slogan printed on it which looks great. Thirdly we have a Barbour t-shirt. The brand has brought us coats for the winter, everyone owns a barbour coat, or at least should. The brand is now branching out into other things, and here we have a simple logo t-shirt which looks great.

1. Armani Jeans T Shirt £85 – Buy here
2. Scotch And Soda T-Shirt £40 – Buy here
3. Barbour Vintage colour tee £30 – Buy here

All three t-shirts would make a great addition to any wardrobe.

You may remember a t-shirt I blogged about a long time ago, the Rottweiler t-shirt made by Givenchy. This has been seen on many celebrities, including Kanye West and Liv Tyler.

If you like this tee but could not afford the Givenchy label, Worn By are now selling a similar one.

The Givenchy one was around £150 last summer. You can pick up this Worn By version for £28. Zero points to Worn By for creativity! It looks less detailed and is a smaller print.

I am going to be bringing a small selection of the fashion world to you right here on my blog! Here is part 1, and we will be looking at t-shirts, and in particular, striped t-shirts.

I like the striped tee, they add more colour, contrast and diversity to your outfit, and can go well with almost anything, depending on the style and colour mix you go for. Go bright and bold to really stand out, or if you want something more contemporary and a lower profile go for colours which blend together seamlessly.

Here are a few selections to get you started.

1. Minimum Dustin scoop neck t-shirt – £35 – Scoop neck design, with blue and red stripes. Buy here
2. Drykorn T-shirt £40 – Scoop neck design, dark, light blue and white striped design. Buy here
3. Jack Jones T-shirt – £18 – Blue and white bold striped t-shirt. Buy here

1. Farah Vintage t-shirt - £25 – Red, pink and white striped shirt. Buy here
2. Asos striped t-shirt – £16 – Black and white striped scoop neck shirt, pocket, contrast stripe design. Buy here
3. Nudie striped t-shirt - £45 – Indigo blue striped tee, pocket, made from organic cotton. Buy here

Buy yourself a striped t-shirt for your summer wardrobe. There are just a few of the styles and colour combinations which are available.

Marni at H&M launches tomorrow at selected stores and online. Will you be buying anything?

I do fancy a jacket, t-shirt and pair of sunglasses. I will log on tomorrow at 9AM and see if I am able to get the things I want

Hello blog!

Today I have bought a couple of things, a new jacket and new pair of shoes.

The jacket I picked up was from the All Saints store in Newcastle, and was the powder denim one which I blogged about before. It’s really nice, lightweight and short, really great for the summer and nights out. They had just got it in the store, it was not even on the shop floor, someone had to get it from the back, so I may be the first one to buy it from the Newcastle store

I also got some shoes, I HATE buying shoes which I have mentioned before, I dunno why I just do! I found a couple of pair, tried a few on and bought these MR KG by Kurt Geiger ones from Fenwick Newcastle. I had the poor girl running all over getting me different ones in different sizes, I am a 9 in these MR KG shoes, my previous (Base London) shoes are a 10. The sales girl was amazing and helpful and I ended up getting this pair which I like.

All Saints powder grey denim jacket. – £95

MR KG Kurt Geiger Shoes – £55 (from Fenwick)

I have found a few denim jackets for this spring. I like denim jackets, they are rugged and add a bit of vintage feel but can still be soft and nice to wear. The biggest problem I have with them is that if you wear jeans and you wear a “jean jacket”, then it can look like you are wearing some sort of denim tracksuit.

I have found some denim jackets that will work well with dark colour denim, and they look really good.

I really like these 2 jackets. Both give a washed out vintage style of look. They can be worn with almost any colour denim and will contrast well.

The first jacket is by All Saints and is the “powder denim jacket” in washed grey. This is a slim fitting jacket and comes cabbage-rolled for added vintage effect. £95 at All Saints.

The second is a jacket from Nudie Jeans and is the Nudie Terry Sunbleach Wash Denim Jacket. Slightly darker than the All Saints jacket, this one features soft denim and is a regular fit. This one is a little more expensive at £120.

Chunky buttons come with both of these jackets which I love, giving them that added extra premium feel.

Here are some shots from the Boss Selection Spring 2012 Campaign by Hugo Boss. Boss Selection stands for luxurious craftsmanship at its best.

I have not had a new fragrance for a while, and today I got one. I went to go and buy either Jean Paul Gaultier – Kokorico or D&G – The One Sport. Both fragrances are new, and I went to try both today. I do like both, and they are quite different. The D&G Sport is a fresh, slightly fruity smell, and the Jean Paul Gaultier is a more powerful smell, I would recommend for a night.

I went ahead and got Kokorico, which I like a little better, and will probably get the D&G Sport later sometime.

I got the Kokorico from Fenwick for £36.50 for the 50ml bottle. I also got a few freebies which are cool; shower gel, a sample spray and a cool miniature bottle. I found a big problem with the fragrance department; It is near the food court, in particular Yo! Sushi. When I was trying the Kokorico all I could smell was fish! I had to stand quite far away to get the smell of fish out of my nose

I also popped into the Calvin Klein store and picked up a couple of tees, £26 for two.
