First shave yesterday. Yes. I look ridiculous. Yes I'm a 34 year old man who cant grow a beard...or a moustache. All the more reason why you guys have to go support my Movember page. Come on. Cancer support and awareness. Do something nice...don't make me look like a douche for no reason. Seriously though. … Continue reading Movember - step 2

Skinny fat ties for less

For those of you who missed it, here is a quick recap. This guy, Joshua takes vintage fat ties that he finds in thrift stores all … Continue reading Skinny fat ties for less
#Fancy Friday - Turquoise and Navy
Ive been doing a little bit of shopping. But on a super tight budget. I get a lot of "jeeeez you must spend a lot of money on clothes"!

But you certainly don't want to find … Continue reading Herringbone - Know your patterns
#Fancy Friday - Burgundy and Blue
New burgundy blazer. That's whats up. Was very excited when I picked this guy up, though admittedly I had to force myself to put down the blue one I had in my hands. Believe it or not I'm quite conservative, that's why all my details are bright but my basics are generally grey's and blues! … Continue reading #Fancy Friday - Burgundy and Blue
