Happy Monday!
How was your weekend?
This weekend has been another good one if you like football…Just when you think the football season is over, it’s not 😀 There’s been some international football, even though it’s not a year for the Euros or World Cup, there’s been a few games on.
Not only do I love 90’s fashion and trends, but I love 90’s music. When it comes to 90’s fashion and music, there’s not much of a better mash up than the duo Shampoo and their style, even if they’re girls. I was listening to their songs and then decided that I’d get the CD album from Amazon.
Yes, the album was actually released in 1994, which seems so crazy to get the CD all these years later. The only song which I knew was Trouble, their biggest hit, and I remember it from being a kid. I don’t remember the other tracks, but when I was listening to that, I tried a few more tracks, loved what I heard, so decided to get the Album which I could, which wasn’t too much money, as you can expect.
When holiday season arrives you’ll be going to the airport. You’re probably thinking of one thing:
What should you wear to travel in?
It can be a fine balance of picking an outfit which is going to be comfortable, stylish and work in the UK weather as well as abroad, whether that’s the middle of Summer of Winter.
Here is how to pick the perfect outfit when travelling, and how to nail airport style.
As you’ll know if you’re into style and fashion, or you just read this blog, 90’s style trends have made a come back in recent years. Of course you know I like them, and I’ve featured them so comprehensively here for the past few years. We’ve seen the heavy hitters such as Kappa, Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein, but one name has been missing. Until now.
Ralph Lauren has launched two limited edition capsule collections from the Polo Sport line, steeped in 90’s nostalgic goodness. These two collections are named the denim collection, and the silver collection.
However these do come at a cost, which I will get into below.
Happy Sunday guys!
I have to say, I feel pretty well rested and chilled out today! It has started as one of those days which looks gloomy, but if you go outside it’s really warm. I might not get another chance to wear my dip dye sweatshirt again, so I’ve decided to pull it on since it’s a relaxed kind of day.
Last night was pretty good, there was football, boxing and music, aka my song of the summer which I will listen to at least once a day…More on that below
One of the coolest collaborations of the Summer launched a few days ago at Selfridges between the two iconic brands, Gumball 3000 famed for it’s car adventures stretching 3000 miles, and Kappa, one of the go-to retro sportswear brands of Italy. I was going to feature a few pieces in my last fashion Friday, but I thought the capsule collection deserved to shine in a post of it’s own.
Here’s some of the key pieces from the capsule collection which caught my eye.
Happy Bank Holiday!
If you’re not in the UK then I apologise, but we have a day off today, it’s the late May bank holiday. This weekend I have had a quiet and chilled out one, as is usually the case for Bank Holidays. Some call them boring, but I do love it when you can do absolutely nothing for a few days, it’s a great period of rest.
What kind of idiot would blind buy a fragrance which was released 15 years ago, in 2004? Yep, that would be me! 😀 I have got myself Style In Play from Lacoste, and if you’re looking at the pictures, you’ll notice there’s two bottles. There’s a story why.
For around 3-4 years we’ve heard this term banded around, it’s the word millennial, and wherever you go you seem to hear it; On radio, TV, social media, magazines. But who are the real millennials, and what does the word actually mean.
Hey guys!
As you’ll know from my blog, I am no stranger to Bulldog Skincare products, and have used a couple of them in my grooming regime. I’ve had one of their shaving sets ready for me to use for a while, since Christmas in fact! I’ve been using other products before, but finally, I’ve had a chance to test the Bulldog razor and shaving products, so here’s what I thought.
