I got a brand new old fragrance! I say brand new old because as it’s new to me, it’s quite an old scent, this is Calvin Klein CK be.
I received this as a present. If you know me and don’t know what to buy me, the easiest answer in the world is a bottle of aftershave.
Is this scent still relevant today, and has it stood up to the test of time?
Here’s everything you need to know about CK be.
We’re well into April, so it’s time for another update on the latest trainers for the month.
This has been one of the quietest month’s I’ve known since I started doing these updates, there’s not been too many good trainers which I have seen that have been released or are upcoming for April.
But a few pair have caught my eye, from a few different brands including Adidas, Puma and of course Nike.
These are the best latest trainer releases for April 2023.
Did you know that the average height for a man in the UK these days is 5ft 10in? It seems to keep going up and up, the new generation are getting taller.
If you feel on the short side and would like to be taller, you can’t. You can however dress to make yourself look taller.
It’s all about wearing the right clothes, colours and styles, which will make you appear taller than you actually are.
Here’s how you can look taller and slimmer simply by choosing the right clothes for your body.
Better late than never, it’s my monthly fashion and lifestyle blog update for March 2023!
OK so yes, it is pretty late, we’re into the 11th April right now. But this is a new feature and I have to say I did actually forget.
But now I have remembered it’s time to look back on what went on for the month of March 2023 right here on the blog.
If you missed anything, here’s a recap of the best of Michael 84 in the past month.
Yesterday EA Sports released the first details and logo into their newest venture, leaving the FIFA brand behind to bring EA Sports FC.
This isn’t a surprise, as this was announced back in 2021 that FIFA 23 would be the last FIFA game made by EA, after FIFA were asking for $1 Billion for the license, as reported by the New York Times.
What will change? Here’s what we know so far from the announcement.
Did you know there are rules for buttoning suits?
Neither did I, but there is.
Luckily the rules are very simple to follow. Once you know, you’ll be looking around at the other guys to see if they’re breaking these rules.
So, what is the simple rule to buttoning a suit?
This is one of those questions which I’ve been asked a couple of times, and if you ask people or the Internet, you’re likely to get different answers.
Some will be strict high class fashion etiquette, and some will be a more informal approach.
Should your belt match your shoes?
One of the newest cocktail bars in Newcastle is The Mad House. I went a few months back for the first time, and it was pretty good.
It’s certainly a bar with a difference in Newcastle, and the only one where you can sit with your mates at a bath on a neon toilet seat while you drink.
Sound interesting? Here’s what you need to know!
Whenever I smell a certain type of fragrance, one absolute colour comes to mind, purple.
When it comes to a purple fragrance, they are some which I really like. It seems like there are so many that you can categorise as purple, this is what it all means and what purple fragrances are the best.
Sports jacket, blazer and a suit jacket. What are the differences? Are they the same?
They do look similar, but there’s a few differences between the three smart tailored jackets that you might not know about, and that’s OK.
You probably have a suit, which comes with a smart jacket. If you want to dress smart without wearing the full thing, you might ask yourself:
Can you wear the suit jacket as a blazer?
So, let’s talk about these three jackets, all smart, but are all in fact different in a number of ways.
Here’s the differences between sports jackets, blazers and suits.
