Hello 2022!
It seems so weird to say that. 2021 went over in a flash, and so did 2020. It doesn’t feel like we’ve had years just pass us by, but that is what has happened.
It’s also the longest break I think I have taken on the blog, with my last post being on Christmas Eve.
I hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Year, and are looking forward to the year ahead.
The boys are back. The Grand Tour has returned for it’s 2nd lockdown special, The Grand Tour: Carnage A Trios.
This time round Clarkson, Hammond and May delve deep into the world of French car culture.
You can watch this episode which is part of season 4 on Amazon Prime Video. Here’s what to expect if you haven’t seen it yet. (with no or little spoilers)
We’re into December! I haven’t noticed too many trainer releases which have caught my eye, but there has been a few.
These are some of the brand new trainers you’ll be able to get this month from the likes of Nike, Converse and Adidas over the coming weeks.
A few week’s back we went to the Hard Rock Café in Newcastle for some food and drinks. I was quite looking forward to it, after having been to many Hard Rock Cafes around the world.
It’s cool that Newcastle has one, and they are always worth a look.
If you’ve been to others, or have never been to any, here’s how I found my Newcastle Hard Rock experience.
A few weeks ago I was out and happened to find these two books: Something’s Off by Virgil Abloh and Soled Out by Sneaker Freaker.
I had seen both books online but when I was out I wasn’t shopping for them, and came across them both by chance. I was thinking about getting them for a few weeks, and decided that I’d go out and get them.
It’s been years since I’ve done a proper fashion haul blog post. That could be because it’s been years since I’ve really bought several pieces of clothing all at once.
But here we are, and I’ve bought lots of clothing from H&M over the past Black Friday.
I got myself some shirts, sweats, jackets and even a hat. Here’s a closer look at every piece I got in the H&M Black Friday event.
H&M are quite literally putting a smile on your clothes this winter, in their latest collab with Smiley. It’s all about some good vibes, retro style and having some fun with your clothes in these drops.
I’ve picked out a couple of stand out pieces from the collection which have caught my eye.
Here’s some of the pieces to look out for from the H&M x Smiley collab.
I recently got a new for 2021 fragrance, this one is Calvin Klein Defy.
I tried this out in store and liked it. It didn’t blow my mind away, but I thought it was a nice scent. I saw a few good deals on this in the run up to Black Friday, so decided I’d get myself a small 30ml bottle.
This is everything you need to know about Calvin Klein Defy including what it smells like.
If you’ve read my fashion blog over the past year or so, you’ll know my love of the H&M Blank Staple pieces. I have bought so many in this time, hoodies, shorts and joggers, and now I have added in a new colour to the mix, blue.
This is my hoodie and joggers outfit from the Blank Staples collection.
Here’s what you need to know.
Gamesmaster is back! That means nothing if you didn’t live in the 90’s or like computer games, but if you did then you’ll know what a great time this is.
It had it’s hay day in the early to late 90’s, in the times of NES and SNES, Master System and Mega Drive, and later the Playstation, Saturn and N64 days.
This time round the new Gamesmaster (oracle, guru or whatever you’d like to call him) is Trevor McDonald, and I can’t wait to see it.
