All in Fashion
The days behind the desk planning amount to a day out in London. Using the Skagen Falster Smartwatch, I'm sharing with you some more insight into what goes on during my shoot days.
Details are paramount for myself. Where trousers break on my shoes, how loose a jacket hangs off my shoulders and more recently, the use of the tuck-in to complete my outfit.
Style rules are fading quicker than you can keep up with them. Dress codes and expectations in menswear are changing, none more so than trousers, the menswear staple.
It's my most used style of bag. Yes there are days that require something a bit bigger on wheels, but the tote bag style is my unbeaten favourite.
I have a real feeling of content with my wardrobe. There is nothing I'm looking to immediately add and I'm avoiding the feeling like I need to keep up. Let's keep it that way.
Sometimes it's good to just step out wearing simple reliable pieces that you feel at ease in and forget about intricate layers and technical details... for once.
Airport attire has to be comfortable, but that doesn't mean it has to be boring. On the rooftop before check-out, I share my departures outfit which offers up some small styling differences to upgrade this on the surface normal look.
An uninspired sigh as I open my curtains. Grey skies and dark by 3pm. This year I'm deciding to ignore the weather and do my best to keep creating.

Travelling into the city has become a regular occurrence and although I don't live in London, I'm starting to learn why people enjoy it so much. One reason being the freedom of personal style.
Collaboration is such an important and exciting role for me within my job. Timex is a brand I've enjoyed wearing for a while and together with Mat, I've worked with them to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of their Easy Reader collection.
Style is about expressing creativity, feeling confident and enjoyment. Let's talk about being comfortable in what you wear and how you can push your personal style further.
Hardy Amies aren't just known for their tailoring. I take a walk around their local neighbourhood and talk about menswear rules that don't necessarily have to be followed.
It only feels like two seconds since I was talking about my joy for not needing a jacket and now we're left with the in between transitional weather, that, let's face it, nobody enjoys dressing for
Unbeknown to me, Leicester has a botanical garden and once I'd learnt this, the seeds were sown to go over and with no jacket in sight. One nil to summer!
Among sporadic heat waves, summer city breaks and the morning routine of seeing what our unreliable weather is doing, summer is over in the fashion world.
Most of what I do is built on relationships. Surrounding myself with good people and coming together to create content. This time it was with Oliver Spencer.
Well yet again I’m starting a post talking about how much I enjoy travelling within England and how Leicester is the ideal launch pad to do so. This time round I headed to Liverpool.
It’s becoming a weekly thing now. I’ll head down to London for midday and my day begins. Not living in the city means when I come down I make sure I’m productive.
