I got the new Spain away shirt for 2012/13, and it is light blue with a pattern on the front. What do you think?

I think it looks quite nice
I have read other people’s reactions, and a few people do not like it; They are saying things like it looks like a goalkeeper shirt, it’s not a nice blue etc. I think it looks fine, and I am glad it’s different….I think it is hard to make a “new” shirt for a football team, especially a national team and it to be different; Fans will complain that it looks “just like the old one” if they stick to a classic design, and I think this is different if nothing else.
In my opinion I prefer the home, and both goalkeeper shirts (which I have) to this, but it is a nice shirt to add to the collection and it is different. But having said that I do like it, and since it is new maybe it just takes a little longer to get used to; If they win I am sure people will remember it

I got this Hardrock Cafe T Shirt as a present, it is from the Hard Rock in Dublin. I have a few now, from a few places: Edinburgh, Sharm El Sheikh, Amsterdam and now Dublin.


I like it, it looks cool, all my previous others have been black and I like this in blue with the cool design. It is poly-cotton which makes it really a really soft tee, and it a vintage colour and feel.

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.

Most are new for this spring, and I have included the Stanford University T-Shirt just because I love it, I have the same hoodie, and this is currently on sale at a great £10. They don’t have my size unfortunately.

My Beckham Bodywear for H&M finally came
Actually it came yesterday, but I missed the package, so got it today
I got a t-shirt, boxer shorts and Pajama bottoms.
I ordered it on the day of release, and the boxers and t-shirt were £12.99 each, then a few days later they reduced them to £9.99! I emailed H&M who said the original price was wrong, and they would refund me, so that is cool.
The stuff came with a Beckham Bodywear bag, which was a nice little touch.

See more of what I got below…

These t-shirts have a reality tv feel to them. The concept is simple, Geordies vs Essex. Here we go:

What do you think? They follow the “Keep Calm” trend which is popular, with a reality TV twist. Pretty cool I think

Today was the day that the David Beckham for H&M Bodywear was released, and I ordered a few things
I logged on at 9:02 this morning, and was able to get some things
However it doesn’t seem to be as popular as the Versace stuff, as all things seem to still be available.
I got myself a t-shirt, boxer shorts and PJ bottoms, all in black.

The pricing is very good as you would expect, PJ Bottoms £19.99, T-shirt £12.99 and boxers £12.99. I should get all these delivered next week some time
If they are really good quality and nice, and also still in stock, I might get some more in different colours

Today was the day when I got my Versace Cruise for H&M products! As I have already mentioned I completely forgot about this being released, I must of been asleep or something
but luckily I was able to get lots of great things, probably most that I want out of the collection, apart from the dressing gown
I have seen a few images of it and it looks amazing! I would buy it if it comes available, it might, so watch this space
Anyway for the things I DID get, which were a t-shirt, pair of jeans and a cardigan, here they are…

Really nice T Shirt, strechy cotton and feels nice, although I have not tried it yet, I fear it may be a bit translucent

Silk blend cardigan, which is really nice and is in blue, one of the only colours I have not got in a cardigan, but I have now! :mrgreen: I love my cardigans so this will get plenty of wear.

The most impressive things I got from this collection were these jeans. At only £40 this are amazing quality! I really like the fit, they feel really good and are well designed, I love the thick chunky buttons which make them feel really tough but are in fact really soft.

How much was all of the above? Under £100! It is little wonder this stuff is usually sold out on the first day!

H&M had another “blink and you’ll miss it” collaboration with Versace which went on sale last Thursday. I must admit, I completely forgot about it!
So I went on to H&M.com yesterday and bought a few pieces. I had another look today and almost everything was gone, so I guess I was lucky to get what I did since I only ordered yesterday and it had been on sale for more than 24 hours
Here is what I have picked up:

A T Shirt £19.99, pair of jeans £39.99 and a cardigan £34.99. Just under £100. I should get these by next week.
There was a really nice dress-jacket/blazer which looked really nice and I was tempted, but I have not even worn the last one I got from the Versace/H&M collaboration, so I think it would of been a bit of a waste
What did you think of the Versace Cruise collection? Was there any highlights?

I have been looking at this t-shirt for a couple of weeks now, it seems a few more stores have began to pick it up. I think it is really amazing, and I am so tempted to go and buy this:

Comme des Garçons have made another great collaboration, this time with The Simpsons creator Matt Groening for this super cool, limited and exclusive t-shirt.
I just love the design, all over printing of speech bubbles from his other work, comic strip Life In Hell. Combine that with the Comme Des Garcons Play trademark heart logo outline and another red embroidered logo and you have an amazing looking tee.
If you have £100 to spend on a cool t-shirt this one is worth considering.
