Happy Friday guys!
Today is such a busy day with lots of things going on.
First of all it’s 17th March which means it’s St. Patrick’s Day. Second, Newcastle are playing later on tonight, on a Friday night?! And finally, it’s Comic Relief, so I had to get a Comic Relief T Shirt in the way of MR Happy from the Mr. Men.
Testing new beer and ale has been something I’ve been doing over the past couple of years. I discovered Northern Monk, tried one of them out and liked it, so bought a few more.
The cans I got were Northern Monk Uprising, Faith and Eternal.
Here’s what I thought of each of them.
We’re well into March now, and there’s been a few pairs of trainers which have been released this month which have really caught my eye.
It’s the month of Air Max Day, and there’s been several Nike Air Max 1 trainers which have been released, or are upcoming this month.
I really missed the Air Max 1 silhouette last year, but this year there’s already been so many trainers released in this style.
Here’s the best trainers for March 2023 which have caught my eye.
When I think of fragrances I can often associate a colour with them. There’s a certain type of fragrances which I really like, particularly in spring, and I call these green fragrances.
Here’s what you need to know, and the best green fragrances for men right now.
This week’s question: Can I Wear A Shirt And Tie Without A Jacket?
There may be occasions where you need to wear a tie, which also means pairing it with a shirt. When you do this, do you need to add a smart jacket, suit jacket or blazer to your outfit?
The short answer is no, you should not wear a shirt and tie without a jacket. A tie usually comes as part of a formal dress code which means wearing a suit jacket or blazer, so completes the outfit.
There is of course more to it than that, which is what I’ll explain below.

I finished watching Clarkson’s Farm 2 the other week, and it’s brilliant!
Just as I expected, but I think it was even better than I thought it was going to be.
It’s something I can highly recommend watching, so here’s what you’re missing if you haven’t seen it yet (with minimal or no spoilers!).
It’s been a pretty busy week in February, although it’s the shortest that doesn’t mean not much happened.
In the world of fashion and lifestyle there was plenty happening on the blog, Valentines Day, lots of style guides and of course trainer releases.
Here’s what you missed in February 2023.
It’s a term which has been coined for a couple of years, but you might be thinking: What is athleisure?
Athleisure is comfortable and casual clothing designed to be suitable for every day wear, as well as wearing to the gym or for working out.
It is a modern take on wearing sportswear as your daily outfit.
In the age where a lot of guys are going to the gym, sportswear is very much in, and not only worn when working out, but also as casualwear.
Here’s everything you need to know about athleisure: how to wear it, key pieces and what it all means.
What’s the point in a watch? Why wear a watch when you have a phone that tells you the time?
Does that sound familiar?
If you think that, you’re not alone. There’s so many people who think like that.
Whenever I tell people I still really love to wear a watch on my wrist and ask them about watches, this is usually their answer.
I love wearing a watch, they are one of the most stylish things a guy can own. There’s a lot a watch says about you too.
There’s so many reasons to wear a watch, so if you’re not wearing one, here’s why you should.
A question which gets asked quite a bit is:
Can you wear navy and black together?
It’s a reasonable question to ask. You probably have a lot of black clothes, and lots of navy options too. Can you wear them together?
Yes, you can wear black and navy together.
Here’s how to do it, and everything you need to know.
