Stuff I’ve Tried in July
Truth be told, blogging has its benefits. Getting up before sunrise almost every day to catch golden hour and capture that perfect shot isn't necessarily one of them. However, returning home to find a package waiting on your doorstep is definitely one of the perks of the job. I'm lucky in that every now and then, … Continue reading Stuff I’ve Tried in July

WMBW Drinks – John Lee Hooker with Hardy Amies
Understated. Yep, thats how I'm starting this post. With one word. Ironically, there's a lot that can be said for being understated. In fashion it means that sometimes a simple faint micro check speaks louder than a big bold one. That being said I decided I would go with my new Hardy Amies navy suit when visiting … Continue reading WMBW Drinks – John Lee Hooker with Hardy Amies
The Overnight Bag
Packing for a trip is hard. It seems though the shorter the trip, the harder it is to pack.

Beating the Bulge with Distil Union
I'm carrying 3 wallets on me. Yeah, tricky to tell I know. But that's kinda the point. No one should ever be able to see your wallet. Ever. Nothing ruins a great look like a giant bulge in your jacket...or your pants for that matter. Wait, that came out wrong. I personally have 2 wallets, … Continue reading Beating the Bulge with Distil Union
WMBW Reviews: Vanacci
In the world of mens accessories, it's very rare that something new and interesting comes up. Trust me, I get daily e-mails asking for support of some or other Kickstarter campaign, it's usually a pair of socks, or sometimes a wooden tie, strangely enough never a wooden pair of socks, but that would definitely intrigue … Continue reading WMBW Reviews: Vanacci
