All about skinny ties
2008-09-26 05:10:19
This week’s must-have men’s fashion accessories are skinny ties. If you’re not familiar with skinny ties, they come in all patterns, materials and colours, but the key feature is that they don’t get any wider than a couple of inches (that’s five centimetres to you younger ones). It’s a nice variation from the wider ties of not [...]

A choice of retro t shirts
2008-10-13 06:59:16
You don’t often get designer brands that do retro t shirts – mostly they are own brands and mockups of the originals. You can get retro t shirts from most t shirt shops, from the A-Team to retro Olympic images and slogans. There’s one I’ve never seen though, and that’s one of Superstars – the [...]


Strictly cotton shirts
2008-10-13 03:45:31
Well now that Strictly Come Dancing has returned, I thought I’d check out how the stylish dance professionals are doing on the fashion front.

The polo t shirt minefield
2008-10-09 09:46:20
Polo t shirts seem to have it all - you can wear them as casual or semi formal, and they’re far more unusual and adaptable than plain t shirts. But they are a minefield! How come? Well you’re only a step away from looking like a US college boy. Wear a polo t shirt under a v [...]

What do you think of skinny suits?
2008-11-19 02:16:56
Skinny seems to be the in-word just now, and it started I suppose with skinny ties. Then somebody had the bright idea to bring out skinny jackets and skinny trousers – which together make up the skinny suit. But I’m not sure things haven’t gone a bit too far. Skinny ties I like, as you know [...]

3 things your Lacoste shirt says about you
2008-11-18 06:52:32
I like the way that fashion tends to pigeonhole us. You can tell a lot about someone from their clothes, and if it’s Lacoste polo shirts or t shirts it’s not always good. I think Sarah ‘s customers might be bigger fans than I am. If you like Lacoste clothes, here are 3 things it [...]

The old school tie
2008-11-17 05:51:20
I’ve always had a soft spot for a school tie. I guess it dates back to my own schooldays when the glam boys from the posh school up the road used to swagger past with their school ties half undone. So when one of me personal shopping clients asked me if I’d look at a range [...]


Are novelty ties just naff?
2008-11-17 01:45:57
I’ve been seeing quite a few novelty men’s ties recently, and my first impression is not good! The first problem of course is that most of them are polyester, and you all know what I think of a polyester men’s tie. But even putting that to one side, most novelty ties I see are just [...]

Have you ever wondered how they fold the t shirts so precisely in men’s fashion shops? It’ll be familiar to you, picking up a t shirt, unfolding it for a closer look and then you can‘t fold it back.
