Denim x Denim



Denim X Denim

Hello, Guys! Wow Its seems like its been ages since I have blogged something, so I am literally forcing myself to sit and write this. With exams, deadlines and college work piling around me kicking off a blog has been put on the back seat.

So inspired by IFB's denim post I thought Id rock one of my fave looks denim on denim. I know, I know. Gasp and Cringe all you want but im breaking the double denim rule guys and not going to lie I am living for it. I only think It works because they are two different shades of denim and would look amazing with a pop of color. So I just thought id share this look with you guys before I disappear off again.

Speak to you soon,
Much love

What was I thinking: Ugly Clothes Post


Oh dear! Fashion Faux Pas
What was I thinking ?

Hi all!
I was questing posting this, but I thought why not something nice and light heartd that we can all relate to. So basically I was digging through my wardrobe for a hoddie just to slouch around in whilst I catch up with college work and I found this laying in the back of my closet.
Now for those who don't know this was my FAVORITE jumper like 4/5 years back. I remember begging my parents If I could get it and I literally didn't take it off for months and months after I got it. This was like my winter coat/spring jacket/lounge wear/every opportunity piece/

So yeah you get the picture, I loved this jumper. But when pulling it out of my wardrobe I realised the levels of dread and embarrassment I got from finding it in the depths of my wardrobe and this is because I now absolutely HATE this jumper. Everything about it, the wording, the colors the contrast hood! I look at it and think just why did my parents let me out in this practically every day.

So this Is just a small post reaching out to everyone and asking what item of clothing did you used to love by now absolutely hate?

Would love to hear from you all,
Joe xo

Great blogging expectation

My expectations of blogging


I mean in no way im a veteran blogger, but my opppions of blogging have vastly changed in the week of starting blogging. I have been reading blogs for years but I dont think its unitll you really chuck yourself into blogging and the blogging comunity you really get to know what its all about.

1st- You dont need an exspenice camera to take a outfit of the day picture-
I mean before I started the blog I used to see all these blogs with goerguse photos and these amazing lookbook pictures people used to post and wonder to what did they spend on the camera? I soon found out that there was an even bigger group of bloggers who like me just made use of some good lighting and their iphone and resulted in some rather nice and rather usable pictures. Lesson learned bigger isn't always better.

2nd You don't need to break the bank just to blog-
I have seen so many people showcasing there designer peices but high street works just the same. People don't just like things for the designer label they like things because they are fashionable.

3rd Blogging can only be done one way -
Allways when reading other peoples blogs I used to think that I need to think if I start blogging I need to blog like them. Wrong! I think blogging really gives you your own voice and encorages you to speak out with your own voice , not the voice of others.

4th Only insiders allowed-
After seeing the 'Alisters' of the blogging work I thought gosh will anyone even take the time to read my blog? I dont skype with designers or get gifted with personilied bags on a weekly basis. 
What I did find out is that is exclusively inclusive. Meaning only everybody is allowed in. I have had lovely bloggers returning comments, giving compliments and the whole 5 yards. Everyone is so daym nice!

Pre nice weather - Wish list


Wish list
1. Karl Pilkington tshirt (Fashion Vitcimt-Big cartel)
2. Mouse ears snapback (The Happy Shack-Asos)
3. Tile Print short sleve shirt (Topman)
4 GoldenHeart Sunglasses (Coco and Breezy)
5 Cellingprint tshirt (Pray for paris)

Morning everyone!
So the firday feeling hasnt quite hit me yet so before college I decided to do some Faux online Shopping. For anyone who doesnt know Faux shopping is essentaly where you just borwser but dont buy.
So this moring I found what has to been noted as the best tshirt I thinkI have ever seen. A t-shirt with a all over print collage of Karl Pilkton face.
The snap back I love and would total buy if only I suited hats. As soon as I wear anything on my head my head looks without a doubt 10x more out of proportion then it normally does.
I have been a huge fan of Coco and Breezy for like 2 years now since I first viewed their interview on StyleLikeU. They are an amazing twin design pair from American and create amazing sunglasses and accessory.
Pray for pairs has also been on my radar for a while since I have seen pictures crop up on some big time blogs/tumblr accounts. The prints and designs are always immaculate and are so versatile.

Speak to you soon,

Blue x Floral - OOTD (18/04/13)




OOTD - 16/04/14

Hi all! So I have been super tired due my upcoming exams/being totally lazy and leaving college work till the last minuet getting out of bed this morning was a total chore so I wasn't opted for something more toned down and comfy today.

So today I wore another one of my floral shirts (topman) paired with an oversized blue speckle jumper from h &m - £14 in the sales! - which for mens clothes is practically dirt cheap! I do like this outfit, it's one that takes little effort to pull off and its about as comfy and informal as I get but i still dressed this up (slightly) with the top button and black formal shoes seen in -this- OOTD.
I love hearing back from you guys so if you want drop me a comment down below and Ill get back to you when I can!
Speak soon,

Something New - Haul (17.04.13)

 Haul-
So as you can see I did a spot of shopping thanks to my freind pay day.
The first item on my haul is the only item that I was orningaly ment to buy. I needed a new shirt for and upcoming party so I picked up this shirt for 28? pounds. I have tried to explain the print to a few people but all I could decribe it aswas abstract floral. Any other suggestion of how to describe it would be great.
 The next thing I grabbed was some new aftershave. I picked up Paul Smith aftershave under the advice of a friend after smelling it on them. Foolishly I didn't test it out before buying it and now I'm not sure how keen I am on i.

I also then went on to purchase some beauty products. The first and the most expensive was the Prada Candy body conditioner. This is so moisturizing and literary leaves your body smelling of the Prada candy perfume for hours after.
  I also hit bodyshop and picked up a new body butter. To those who know me this was clearly no surprise. In my opinion one of the most intensive body butters they sell but defiantly not the nicest smelling. Finally I grabbed some more moisturizer - l'orel men expert intensive moisturizer- this moisturize is by far my favorite! This is my go to daily moisturizer - I have blemished/dry skin so I find that you can easily get rid of dry/red marks left by spots after a few applications and leaves my skin so hydrated and not feeling greasy at all.

Speak to you all soon,
