Christmas Presents 2011 – Smellies

Posted by Michael on Wednesday 28th December, 2011

I thought I would split up what I got for Christmas into a few posts, so this is the smellies one; The aftershaves, grooming and so on all in this post.

First my three EDT’s. I have Bang Bang by Marc Jacobs, Dior Homme Intense and YSL L’Homme Libre. All three are really nice. This is the new Marc Jacobs for this year, Last year’s was “Bang” which I have but do not really like. This one is much nicer and less pungent, but still a powerful smell.

My New French Connection Jacket And Shirt

Posted by Michael on Thursday 25th August, 2011

Hey blog!

I recently got a new shirt and jacket from French Connection and I love both of them :) They are good quality as you would expect from FCUK, and also look and feel great.

Here is the shirt which is great. It is made from good but very fine cotton, so it is perfect for the summer. I wore it yesterday, you can see that here. You can get yourself a French Connection shirt from their site here.

Next is a leather jacket. This is actually the first one I have got, and I am really impressed with it. I have looked at them in store and tried a few, and now I have this one. The quality is amazing, it’s not too heavy but not paper thin either, and looks really good with a shirt or t-shirt if you want to be more casual. You can get a jacket from French Connection here. It has plenty pockets to keep your things in, including 2 inner pockets. I like this, so I can keep my camera in there on a night out ;) It has a zip opening as well as buttons, so you can use either, both, or none.

Check out more in depth photos below.

23rd March 2011 – Oh What A Beautiful Day

Posted by Michael on Wednesday 23rd March, 2011

Hello lovely blog readers :)

Are you enjoying the weather today? Sorry if wherever you are isnt nice, but in Newcastle it is HOT! :D Well, almost anyway, it was 18 degrees today according to my car, and you can actually feel the heat, its not just sunny. They said on the news last night that it would get progressively colder, so its probably all over now :(

p.s. no more pics of my car display, until the summer at least, it gets repetitive :D

Today I have been quite busy with work, since I got a parking ticket I have to park further away from work, and I had 4 big boxes of t-shirts to carry which is almost 300 t-shirts which are heavy when you have to carry them a bit of a distance :P

Here I am today, this is what I wore.

First pic of the year where I am outside in the sun :mrgreen:

Lets hope the weather stays, not that it will :( I suppose its only March, but not for long, April soon ;) All I hope for is a long hot summer, we need that! :)

December After Christmas Fashion

Posted by Michael on Friday 31st December, 2010

I got myself some clothes when I went shopping the other day, like I said. Here is what I got myself, some really really nice things, I particularly love my Jaeger jumper and Nicole Farhi jumper. As you can probably see, I am quite a fan of redthese days :mrgreen:

Purple FCUK T Shirt, just a cheap one for day-to-day wear.

FCUK Jumper. Again quite a cheap jumper, but I like it, its nice, and now I have a few I can stop wearing t shirts 7 days a week :P

ArmaniT Shirt in red. Again this was not too expensive, Armani is probably the “cheapest most prestigious” brand you can get.

Finally got one!! :D A Lacoste polo, in red too :P I have wanted one for such a long time and have never got round to getting one. I have an old one I found when tidying up the other day, it looks a bit washed out looking, I did wear that one a fair bit. I think this one will only come out once we have summer which is fine, Lacoste polos are timeless :)

I hardly ever buy shirts, because I hardly ever wear them. I saw this D & Gone and had to get it, I only have black and white shirts, and this is the 2nd Dolce and Gabbana one, my white D & G has an “Italian collar” which I dont like, this one is much smaller. Look at the detail on the collar and cuffs aswell, it looks like I am a magician or something :D

Red jumper by Nicole Farhi. The funny story about this jumper is I saw it, there was one left in the shop and it is a small. I am a medium, but still tried it on, it just fits, so I bought it :D

My navy blue jumper by Jaeger. Jaeger is premium high street or a high end label, and you can see why. Some brands are expensive and not worth it, but with Jaeger you can feel the quality you are paying for. The cut and fit is perfect and feels really good, This is my first Jaeger piece of clothing, but I dont think it will be my last.

And to finish off my new red mood I got some red Armani boxers. I have this style in black and like them.

Hello Everyone!

How are you? Today it is sunny in Newcastle! Very cold, but still at least the sun is shining…For now :)

Yesterday i got some things delivered from ASOS, i ordered lots of different items, including accessories like a necklace and a few different braclets. I also got a hat, and a snood, since it is still winter and cold! I couldnt order without getting the usual-T-Shirts! i got 3, 2 i blogged about already, i was thinking about getting the Blue Hugo Boss top, and i did :)

I got some other things which arent pictured which were a necklace, a few head sweatbands and some arm ones aswell for when i go running.

My Blue Hugo Boss top i blogged about the other day. It is nice, and feels really comfortable. It is made out of strechy cotton, and fits snug on my body. This is the style of t-shirt i like at the moment. This was £32.

My FCUK top. It is a heavier cotton than the Boss top, and less of a fitted style, but it does fit really nicely, and was a bargin at only £20.

This is my first ASOS own brand T-Shirt. It fits really well, maybe a tiny bit smaller than the other brands but not enough to notice. This also has a pocket, (at the right breast-as you look at the pic) which i did not realise when i bought it LOL! I saw that Junk De Luxe have a similar t-shirt, but for £35. This was only £12, so i could of got almost 3 for the same price! I need some “every day” t-shirts, which i will blog abuot later….I love Junk De Luxe of course, one of my favourite brands :)

What do you think? Hope you like them :)

I Love Mid Blue Tops!

Posted by Michael on Tuesday 2nd February, 2010

Hey!

I have a few tops, hoodies and sweatshirts which are what i would call “mid blue” which could be things like light denim blue and electric blue; I love these colours, espeically electric blue, it stands out really nice, you can wear it alone or combine it with other light and dark colours well.

Here are a few tops. My favourite is the Boss Black Electric Blue T-Shirt, which has Boss embroidered onto it. It is a little expensive for such a plain looking tee, but at £32 I am probably going to be buying it.

The FCUK is a darker denim blue, but has a nice print and is new for SS10. The Superdry “osaka 6″ is old now, and a few too many people have them, but the colour is still great.

All are available from ASOS.com, click the pic for more info/to buy :)
