Have you ever thought about wearing a jacket in the Autumn or Winter? For me, this is a big no-no. I have always considered the denim jacket a Summer item, or transitioning from Spring to Summer. Jean jackets are lightweight, and great for throwing over a tee in the Summer.
But what if you want to wear one in the Winter? Can you wear a denim jacket in Winter? Are they style rules, and how can you style it?
One word – Layering.
Check out the whole outfit below and see how I’ve styled it.
Happy Monday guys!
Did you have a good weekend? Mine was good, filled with drinks, good times and of course the football.
We went over to the new shipping container complex on the Gateshead side of the Quayside, By The River Brew Co. It’s been there a couple of months now, and has a few places to drink, as well as a lot of street food places. It’s a cool spot, similar to something like Box Park in London, and our very own Stack Newcastle.
Welcome to Good Burger home of the Good Burger, can I take your order?
Imagine my delight when I was scrolling on Amazon looking for a film to watch when I noticed that they had added Good Burger to Amazon Prime! As soon as I saw it was on, I had to make sure to watch it for film night.
If you’re from the Nickeloden generation which I am, then you’ll probably know all about the film, and have seen it. It stars Kenan and Kel, and it’s just like their show, which was a silly kind of teenage comedy kind of film.
I watched it so many times as a teen, but how would it stack up now, years later, as an adult?
Was there a better decade than the 90’s? I don’t think so! It was a time for fun-loving people, the 1990s had so much going for it, the music, pop culture and of course the fashion. Whether you’re planning on throwing a 90’s party or you’re going to one, you might be thinking what outfit to wear. Luckily the trends of the nineties have made a comeback, and the style is as popular as ever.
There was so much style back in the day, and lots of different outfits which were worn in the decade, it really is up to you what you choose to put on, but there’s a couple of different styles you can go for.
For men, the biggest trends in 90s style were: double denim, bright florescent colours, brands and logos, oversized clothing, tracksuits and sports wear. Of course not all of these were worn at once, it really depended on your own personal preference; Whether you were into rave culture, Brit Pop, Grunge, Rock, Football there was a particular trend which you and your friends would be wearing.
Here’s everything you need to know about 90’s trends, and some 90’s outfit ideas for the party.
When it comes to male grooming, it’s important to have a good routine, and have all the required products in your arsenal. But you don’t need to rely on getting lots of products from the same brand, you can actually build your own DIY Men’s Grooming Kit.
There are some items which are must have products in your regime, and then there’s some which don’t need to be used every day, or are specific for guys with different needs.
What products should you include? I’ll go through my essential daily products which I recommend using, and what you should have in your bathroom ready to go.
This is one of those questions which I’ve been asked a couple of times, and if you ask people or the Internet, you’re likely to get different answers. Some will be strict high class fashion etiquette, and some will be a more informal approach.
Should your belt match your shoes?
The answer is yes, and no. For me, it depends on the colour shoes you’re wearing. You should start with the shoes as a base point, and then match your belt and any other leather accessories to that.
To put it simply, brown shoes with a brown belt, and black shoes with a black belt. The more formal the occasion, the more strict this rule becomes. Wearing a black suit with some black Oxfords will look dapper, but wrapping a tan belt around it will loose you some serious style points.
So I’ve not featured any Nike Air Max on the blog for quite a while, but in the space of a couple of days, I saw 2 pair which really stood out, and I love them both. The Atmos x Air Max2 Light and the Air Max Plus 97 Miami Vice.
First up I’ll have to talk about the Atmos x Air Max2 Light. They are possibly the most colourful Air Max I’ve seen, and they are one of those designs which you’re either going to really hate or love. I have to say, I do love them!
Happy Monday guys!
Did you have a good weekend? I had a quiet one, and did not get up to much. It’s the start of another week, and it’s another cold one, so time to wrap up. One of my favourite jumpers to wear is this red one which I got at Jaeger so long ago. It’s not just any old wool though, it is cashmere.
For Film Night I was browsing around Amazon Prime as I usually do, and came across House Bunny, which kind of seemed familiar. It was a film from back in 2008, and I thought that I’d seen trailers of this a while ago, and thought it could have been good. I wanted to watch something light and funny, so I decided to see what it was all about, and gave it a watch.
Guys, it’s that time of year again, time for the greatest fashion show, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show!
The show was last night in New York, which you’ll know if you were there, or you follow any of the models in the show. If you’ve never seen it before it’s more than just models on the runway, it’s a full on show with music performances et al.
Last year it was in Shanghai, China, but this year returned to the USA in NYC, with models like Behati Prinsloo making a return. It was the end for one of the greatest angels and models of all time, Adriana Lima, who walked her last Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
Music guests which were present were Shawn Mendes, Halsey, Bebe Rexha, Rita Ora, The Struts and Kelsea Ballerini with the Chainsmokers.
