'Summer' and 'jacket' may be words that shouldn't really go together, but if you live in the UK, you'll know that a lightweight summer jacket is a useful thing to have in your wardrobe for those nippy mornings and chillier evenings......
Are you still struggling to get back to wearing 'normal' clothes after the casualness of working at home? I've found a lot of guys being drawn to a more comfortable version of what they were wearing before including their shirts. And that's where the pique or tech fabric shirt comes in.....the fabric is reminiscent of a t-shirt but the look has the smartness of a regular shirt, making an ideal combination....
This week's blog post is based on some of the things I've been talking to clients about recently. As you'll see, it's not always a major shift that needs to happen but sometimes it's just about paying attention to the finer details......
At last Spring has sprung in the UK.....for the next couple of days anyway, until it gets colder again next week. But no matter, it's a good time to start planning ahead and thinking about your wardrobe for the warmer days. If you don't know where to start though and feel overwhelmed by shopping for a whole new wardrobe, then do this one thing.......
This post was inspired by a personal shopping trip I did a couple of weeks ago. I was looking for blazers / jackets for a client who was 6'2" and needed a longer length jacket......
Have you thought about doing a wardrobe edit or clear out on your own but always get a bit stuck halfway through? It's hard to tell if things look dated or worn out yourself when you've had them in your wardrobe for ages. Or it could be that you've got loads of clothes and know you could be using them more, but aren't confident about putting them together into outfits.
More and more of my clients are moving to dress in a smart/casual style and leaving the suits behind. But the smart/casual area is a large one - pretty much anything in between jeans and a t-shirt and a suit, so no wonder it leaves a lot of guys confused. So to get you started, here are my top 5 tips on what to buy to start off your smart casual wardrobe......
January and February can feel like long months as we wait for the brighter days........so for this post, I thought I'd fast forward to Spring with these BOLD and BRIGHT knitwear suggestions.
If you're bored of wearing blue, black and grey, like many of my clients who ask me how to introduce more colour into their wardrobes, then I've given you some examples of outfits to copy here but also explained how you can tone them down more for a more casual look........
It won't be long before we're able to return to the office.....at least for a few days a week. If you're unsure how the dress code will look and are confused about what to wear for work now, then my suggestion would be to opt for a casual blazer......
Let's hope 2022 is the year we can finally get the virus behind us and get back to our normal mode of working, socialising and having fun!
So to kick the new year off, here are some brands I thought you might like to know about - some of them you may have already heard of, or I've mentioned before, but it's always good to refresh your memory isn't it?
Only a week to go till the "big day"???? Have you almost finished your shopping but could do with a few ideas for stocking fillers and extra little gifts for the men in your life?
Well, you're in the right place.....for I've been helping Santa get stylish this Christmas and have come up with 20 gift suggestions below which are all under £20.
When it comes to Christmas parties and events, do you feel like you either have smart things you wear to work (and consequently you don't want to wear them out) or casual things you wear at the weekend and not much in between?
I know quite.a few of my clients struggle in this area, so in an effort to help, I've put together some outfits below that I think would be fitting for some Xmas socialising.
