June'13 Wishlist

Hello y'all!

It's the time of the month when I get to dwell how to find funds for all the things that I want/need to buy  and all I want to do is sit in the corner and cry, because it's simply impossible. I just want unlimited amounts of money so I can buy all the things that I want. I always find myself in the situation whenever I don't have any money to spend suddenly all the places have really nice things in stock. It's just like they plan it and they plan this game with me... Anyway,  here are some bits and pieces I'm planning on picking from the shops this month, I just need to paciently and quietly wait for payday. As I mentioned there are a lot nice pieces I would like to get this month, these are just some of them I just didn't want to make a very big and boring wishlist so I decided to include some things that I think you might find interesting. Maybe I'll make another wishlist this month... who knows! Let's hope this month won't drag and the time when I can live my life and spend all days shopping will come soon enough before I end up being diagnosed with some sort of depression. 



I came across this cover or eBay and well.. I kinda fell in love with it... I don't think it will be a shock to anyone, we all know how much I love my dip dye. I also think it looks super nice and summery. The bright yellow will add a little more summery touch to my phone and make it more interesting. At least I will have the sunshine on my phone as we probably won't see the sun, here in the UK this summer. The seller also has few other, alternative colours if you don't like the yellow one. 

I get weirdly attached to wallets, therefore I don't tend to change them as often as I would like to. Mainly because I don't see many nice ones for guys.  I need a wallet that will have a lot of space inside but is not physically big. Which could be quite a challenging to find, let me tell you that. This one from TopMan has drawn my attention and I really like it. I love that it's so simple, also because it's black its neutral and will go well with everything. The studs make it more appealing and up-to-date. 

I've been eyeing up the Casio Classic for so, so long, but then I realised there is no point spending £50 on yet another watch as I already have two very good ones. Plus I only want one as a little extra thing to finish off my outfits. I really like watches, I think they are perfect, they add to an outfit this nice finishing touch and elegance. So instead of spending £50 I decided to check out eBay and my dear friend didn't disappoint me - once again. I found this perfect alternative which looks very similar to the Casio just A LOT cheaper. 

Yes, it is indeed another t-shirt, but how could I not have a tee on my wishlist? I just have to, okay? I love how simple it is. Just white and red, I think it would go perfectly with a pair of dark blue jeans combined with white converse. Just like a casual, summer outfit. 

I knew that sooner or later I would end up wanting a pair and there we go. It didn't even take me that long to convince myself to the New balance trainers. They look so sleek and basic and this is what I'm loving lately. It's the simplicity that made me fall in love with them.

LOOKBOOK #1


Hello y'all!

OK, today is finally the day when I can start posting my little OOTDs, I wanted to start doing them for so, so long but I didn't have anyone to take photos for me and my tripod was just useless! Anyway, those days are OVER and as of today a new chapter begins, this is a new section on my blog (probably one of my favourite sections on any blog) where I'll be posting outfits of the day. Just some pieces that I really like and combined them together. 

  


I hope you like them. Of course it would be amazing to find out what you think of them so please don't be afraid to comment :)




P.S.

I would also appreciate if you could nominate me for the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards 2013, in the New Fashion Blog category.  I know it is a lot to ask for, but it would mean the WORLD to me. You guys could help me my dreams come true. There is not many fashion blogs for guys and my aim is to crease the awareness of the men interested in fashion.

Week In Photos No.18

Hello y'all!

The past few weeks have been really good, so far so good. A really good start to the summer, I spent most of the week spending a quality time with my family and friends, it's been amazing. Lately I've been in a very good mood, I always try to be positive and look on the bright side of everything, but sometimes it's hard. Since I've finished uni it's been great, I've been happy and motivated doing something I love (I'm so cheesy I know. I'm sorry!) 

Things are really good. I hope you all are well too.


With my bestie, Jennifer on Saturday / I always crave watermelons in the summer / DIY'ed my jeans - cut them into shorts / I was rather happy with the result of my macaroni cheese / Finished 'The Fault In Our Stars'. An amazing book / McDonald's smoothie - the worst thing I have ever tasted / A quote from TFIOS / Pub Golf with my friends on Friday / Baking with my mum. 

P.S During the week I've made a long awaited YouTube channel. I wasn't really sure about it, but I thought I'd give it a go. I don't have any videos uploaded yet but I would be very grateful if you could subscribe. Watch out for an up coming video very soon :)

Travel Supermarket is holding a contest 'Worldwide Wardrobe' giving you the chance of winning £200 to buy your winning outfit AND a trip to the destination that your outfit was most suitable for. Crazy, isn't it? Imagine getting the chance of going to Ibiza, Paris, New York or London? It's like dreams coming true. All you have to do is create an outfit of your own choice which you think will be the most suitable for each destination and explain why. If you want to you can only create an outfit for one of the destinations or all five, it's all up to you. 

Secondly, you have to pick 5 blogger who you think will be up for the challenge. I'm nominating:

Kirsten from SPRFRK
Natalie from An Odd Girl
Sammie from Beauty Crush

If you fancy, you can enter the competition HERE



TOTAL - £114.99

When you're somewhere warm and most of the time you will spend partying you want to feel comfortable in what you're wearing and at the same time you obviously want to look fashionable. That's why I went for a tie dye tee which is a massive trend this season, to keep me cool and comfy but at the same time it will look super cool and trendy. I paired it up with dark denim shorts as I love denim shorts. I feel good in them and they are a basic piece in my wardrobe for summer. Because the t-shirt is very bright and colourful I decided to go for a dark denim to create a balance between the colours. This colourful tee gives you a lot of different possibilities, due to a lot of colours you can play around with the whole outfit and mix it with a lot of different colours. Thats why I decided to go for red vans to underline the whole outfit and give it a finishing look by choosing a darker colour. For accessories I picked a pair of sunnies which are essential for me in the summer, especially when you're in Ibiza right? And a set of bracelets with different shades of brown and red which go really well with the whole outfit and the shoes.




TOTAL - £199.99

While you're visiting Paris you must be prepared for the heat, large crowds, walking long distances and streets full of people who put fashion in front of everything else. That's why I decided to put my own spin on this look, to stand out from the crowd and be noticed for what I'm wearing. Dungarees, without a doubt will grab others attention, they add a different dimension to the outfit and at the same time look trendy and you feel comfortable wearing them. I decided to go for more casual look, as you will be walking long distances. I pared up the plain dungarees with a busy pattern tee which goes perfectly with them and a straw hat to protect my head from the sun and at the same time creating a funky, fashionable look. Spending all days walking you want to pick a pair of comfy shoes that you know they won't kill your feel, that's why I picked a pair of white converse. They go really well with the light denim dungarees, t-shirt and the hat. In my opinion creating a perfect outfit for sightseeing in Paris. I also added a big brown bag to break the colours and create a bit of a contrast between the light and pastel colours, which adds more life to the outfit. Of course I also included a pair of sunnies, I decided to go for a black pair because black sunnies are more classic and easy to pair with anything. 




TOTAL - £172.94

Going for cocktails in New York you want to look stylish. I picked this yellow blazer and paired it with a pair of simple black jeans. This season is all about bright and bold colours, pairing this blazer with black jeans creates a huge contrast. You will look stylish and trendy. Fashion is about taking risks, not being afraid to mix colours and be bold. Therefore I think this blazer is a perfect if you want to impress someone with your style and show that you're not scared of fashion and bright colours. To tone the outfit down I paired the bright blazer with a calm, toned pastel shirt. I think it's a perfect composition as it tones down the brightness and matches perfectly with the jacket. Adding a pair of brown and navy boat shoes and finishing the look with a gold watch and brown sunnies you are ready to turn heads and rock in New York! 




TOTAL - £159.24

As I mentioned before spring and summer 2013 is about not being afraid to mix colours and contrasts. That's why this outfit is featuring a black and white theme. To make it more interesting I chose a pair of light, ripped jeans from Asos. I decided to go for them to break the contrast between the black and white and I also think it makes the outfit a lot more interesting. Also when you're shopping in busy London it's all about the comfort and I feel most comfortable in jeans. Pairing the jeans up with white Homies sweatshirt and a black beanie and Nikes creates a massive contrast and that's what I love about this outfit. It's simple but trendy and at the same time super comfy. Because what's better than a baggy, soft sweatshirt and a pair of trainers? To finish this outfit off I decided to add this funky, gold, studded necklace. I think it goes really well with the theme and adds more colour and different dimension to this 'street' look.


Which look is your favourite? I would love to find out!
Good luck to everyone who entered the competition :)

FREEDOM

Hey y'all!

Oh my goshhhhh! It's been a loooong time since I could just sit down, relax, enjoy my life and focus on what I enjoy doing the most (which is obviously blogging and watching YouTube videos). Yup, so first year of university is over... scary right? I remember like it was yesterday starting uni and now the first year came to an end. I don't know how I really feel about uni anymore. I'm not sure if it's for me and if I like my course (Meeh!). But anyways, lets not talk about it, because it's all boring stuff. 

Right now my I'm dedicating myself to blogging, I have 5 months, 5 MONTHS of Summer holidays OH EM GEE. I don't even KNOOOOOOOW what I'm going to do with all the spare time. I obviously have few holidays planned etc. but apart from that I'll just be blogging, blogging and blogging. I always think about my blog, what I can do to make it a little bit different and just in general more exciting. Because I want you guys to enjoy what I do as much as I enjoy doing it, so I always try to improve and give it 100%. Therefore I have already planned few things for my blog. I'd like to try and take more photos of the outfits of the day and show you guys more photos how I style and wear different thing. Right now I don't feel like I've been doing it enough. Simply because I don't really have where to take the photos or anyone to take the photos for me. I love photography and I've been trying to take photos using tripod but to take good photographs on a tripod is possibly IMPOSSIBLE MAN and as you know I like to do my best in everything that I do, therefor I want my photos to look good. So I'm not sure how I'm going to resolve this problem but hopefully I will come up with something!

Also, lately I have been thinking a lot about starting a YouTube channel. WAAH! I love watching videos on YouTube. This is literally what I do everyday, no a day goes by without me watching  video. And I always had in mind starting a YouTube channel, I just didn't know what I'm going to be ready for it. I feel like videos are a lot more personal than blogs. Don't get me wrong I love blogging and I will continue to blog, I just find videos a lot more personal and interesting. You get the chance to see the person, you get to know them a lot better, you can see their personality... ah I just love it. It's so cool. But I'm not sure if I'm ready. I don't know why, but I'm too scared of what other people will think of me, everyone these days is so opinionated and it's something I really don't like and something I'm afraid of. I also don't have the right equipment, I do have a good camera but I need to get a Mac Book to edit the videos, because if I'm going to make videos I want them to be good! So hopefully this or next week I will have my Mac Book and I can start shooting my videos. 

This is it for today people. I'm really sorry, this is a really long and boring post. Most of you probably won't bother reading it, but I just felt like because of uni I wasn't able to dedicate enough of my time to my blog I just felt like updating you on few things. So yeah, I hope you're all well and I watch out for a new - fashion related post tomorrow!!

Me being me - super cheese ball, because exams are over.

Holla everyone!

How are you all doing? I hope you're all well.

Today, I have for you something totally new and different -  something I haven't done before, but for a long time I've been thinking how to go about it and create some posts with already made outfits for you guys to have a look at and feel inspired. Because I want to be as helpful as possible, so I came up with idea of this project. So let me start and introduce you to it. 
I called it 'The Styler', in these kind of posts I will create 3 different outfits with the latest trends. I decided it would be a great ideas to start doing these kind of posts and give other people inspirations and ideas of the latest trends, what's new in the shops and how you can wear/style different things. To get a wider variety of different styles I will create different types of outfits for different occasions and different styles, because not everyone is the same and most people like a change from time to time so they can have a look and try other things out too. Sometimes the looks will be more casual, other will be more formal and some a little bit of in between. I think you get the idea :).

As the spring is approaching really fast (even thought it's still winter outside - weather WHAT ARE YOU PLAYING AT?) I decided to create 3 a little bit more cause outfits for warmer days ( I think by now all of you can tell I'm desperate for some sun haha ). These are more chilled and really just about the comfort looks. A simple sweatshirt / tee, pair of jeans, trainers and you're ready to go! Chill with your friends at the beach, in the park, go shopping or for something to eat with your friends. Add some sunnies, your favourite hat/beanie if you like to make it a little bit more you and you're sorted! 

I hope you like this post guys. As I said, I really wanted to try out something different, I would really appreciate if you told me what you think about this kind of posts. Do you think I should make them more often or maybe a should make it a regular thing and start posting them regularly? For example once a week/month? Lemme know in the comments down bellow!

Peace! :)

Week In Photos No.10


Holla! 

So as you can probably guess from the photographs above I wasn't really up to much this week. Uni and all the assignments are taking up most of my time, so I'm really sorry about the lack of photos and activeness on my blog. I promise once I'm done with all the assignments I will dedicate most of my time to my blog and you all guys! Since I will be done with uni for summer and I'll have 5 months of being lazy, doing nothing and blogging everyday! Woop, woop!

Finally got my Nike Air Forces - LOVE THEM / me being me - bored/vain child / flowers for my mummy for Mother's day / home made strawberry/banana milkshake - YUMMY! 

Hope you all had a good week!

P.S  I'll follow everyone back when I have a little bit more time
