I do most of my shopping online now that I have discovered its advantages. Since my schedule is loaded, not even having the time to do some of my errands, internet shopping has provided me with some precious hours. It is more convenient, faster, and easier. I no longer have to brave traffic or wait in line for minutes. I do my shopping anywhere I am, anytime. I also like the fact that there are more choices and I am able to save more because most of the items are cheaper than those you find at the mall. Furthermore, there are a lot of online stores that provide free shipping and big discounts.

I have a couple of favorite online shops and they accept coupons, which are one of the most popular marketing and advertising strategies used by manufacturers and sellers to attract new customers. You are able to use them to buy items for free or half the price or get free shipping. They are also easy to find. There are even hundreds of websites offering them such as VoucherKing. It has the latest voucher codes from 1,000 of your favourite retailers in the UK like AbeBooks, Adidas, Accent Clothing, Barker and Stonehouse, Diesel, Fashion for Home, Papa John’s, Panasonic, The Body Shop etc. Their Debenhams Voucher codes include so many amazing deals.

Fashion Blunders That Men Make

by admin

Let’s face it, when it comes to fashion men are still way behind to women. A lot of men still don’t care about how they dress up and prefer to put on a simple pair of jeans and T-shirt. Furthermore, men make fashion mistakes all the time. Some may be tolerable but others are plain outrageous. Shiny shirts and suits are better off hidden in the closet. Instead try a form fitting black shirt which can be worn with pants or jeans when you want to go clubbing. Another fashion faux pas is wearing socks with sandals. It just doesn’t look cool.

Many guys are sloppy dressers. Clothes that’re too loose fitting make you look like a street gangster. Shop for clothes that fit you perfectly and are flattering to the type of body you have. Another advice is to not wear uncomplimentary colors. The colors you wear should flatter your natural features such as your skin tone, eye color, and body shape. Remember to always keep your style simple and understated.

What better way to put together a fashionable wardrobe than to shop at Cockney Rebel Fashions. This family run business has been around for decades providing men with luxury designer brands of apparel, footwear, and accessories. Among the brands available are Adidas Originals, Barbour, Diesel Jeans, Fred Perry, Lacoste, Lyle & Scott Sportswear, Nicholas Deakins, Timberland, and Ted Baker Mens.

Their G Star T-shirts online are a must-have for men who want to keep it very casual but stylish. An example would be the G Star Palma Crew Neck Stripe T-Shirt which will go well with both denim and chinos. It has a grandad collar with 3 button fastening and a tonal pocket detail. The G Star Evens V Neck Logo T-Shirt on the other hand, is great during summer and has a photographic front print and chest pocket with printed G Star branding above it.

I hope you can understand me on that. LOL Anyway, I was again here to post up this new styling which I’ve found recently over the web though this type of styling for men are been trend already years ago and yet am pretty sure that most of you aren’t yet familiar with it or havent it try for yourself yet which on how to style your soccer socks. Actually, there’s an various of styling out in the web these days having the high sock as an main pieces, however, you must have to be considerable in your pieces to pick.

Maybe it’s really depend on what type or color of your sock is. And how comfortable your are wearing it. But on my own, I prefer to have it with shorts because I was in to shorts more than pants or jeans when it comes on my styling and fashion statements.

Also, girls can rock on this styling too as their fond of wearing it like on the photo on the top. Nope! kidding aside. Girls are can be good in this too, because I’ve also seen some girls even today( fall is approaching ) are wearing this socks with their shorts on. Sorry! I cant  find any photo of girls rocking on the soccer socks as their fashion statements.

So – yeah! Sport finds can be also use at some casual either in formal styling. All you have to do is to try to mix and match things for you to have a great styling that might most people looking forward to.

Okay, that will be all for now and I hope you can find this post quite informative and helpful on your end as you seek sorts of information about what’s hot and not today in the fashion industry.

Things to Remember When Shopping For Shoes

by admin

photo reef_zps3dab375f.jpg

Shopping for quality shoes is not easy. It’s sometimes better to just buy something that’s branded and expensive because at least you know that it’s durable and of high quality. But what if you don’t have the money to buy pricey shoes? There are some things to remember to guide you through the process. Always try on the shoes you like first before you decide to buy them. Keep them on your feet and walk around for a few minutes to see how they feel. Be sure that they fit perfectly and you feel comfortable wearing them. Check if the shoes can be returned before buying them.

Purchase from a familiar brand that you’ve worn before when shopping online. This way you already know your accurate size. If you have to choose between leather and synthetic leathers, it’s a no brainer that you have to go with leather. They’re biodegradable and more durable. Always choose quality over quantity. A quality shoe with quality maintenance should last a long time. You shouldn’t worry too much about the cost since quality shoes look better, lasts longer, and are more repairable. Thus, they’re a better long term investment.

As for good dress shoes which men should have at least a pair of, the soles should be stitched not just glued to the bottom of the shoes, at least a quarter of an inch thick, and is made of leather. Also, the lining is made of high quality calfskin or natural leather not synthetic materials. If you want to have stylish and top quality leather shoes, shop at Reef. They have some really beautiful and interesting models to choose from like the Reef Eland. It has premium full grain leather upper with distressed and vintage finishes, leather outsole with rubber enforce strike area, and premium pig skin leather lining. Plus, it’s handcrafted in Brazil.

Another model that’s worth checking out is the Reef Bantu shoe, what with its premium leather full grain upper with distressed and vintage finishes, molded wax texture cushion insole, molded rubber swellular traction out sole, slammed cup sole construction, and EVA compounds for odor management on the insole, among its features. I’m sure I’ll also look good if I wear the Reef Spiniker Mid NB. It has Reef molded rubber swellular traction outsole, removable and washable insole for function and travel, odor management EVA insole, molded wax texture cushion insole, and die cut leather labels inlay on the outsole.

1.) Farah Vintage The Winchester Crew Knit – £85.00

2.) Edwin ED-39 Blue Watch Jeans – £110.00

3.) Barbour Thorn Shirt – £65.00

4.) Grenson Stanley Full Brogue – £200.00

5.) Laboratory Perfumes – £50.00

Browsing through the store, I saw some really great items such as the Farah Vintage Winchester Crew Knit, Edwin ED-39 Blue Watch Jeans, Barbour Thorn Shirt and a pair of Grenson Stanley Full Brogue all shown above. I’ve heard good things about Laboratory Perfumes too and I noticed Northern Threads stock it when I was perusing their site.

The Farah Vintage Winchester Crew Knit is a stylish crew neck knit which has a thick ribbing on the cuffs, hem, and neck and an insulating knitted material to provide warmth. They work well with those Edwin ED-39 jeans – I’m a big fan of Edwin and particularly the ed-39 style; versatile, stylish and they can literally be worn with anything, anywhere.This straight legged pair is 100% cotton, has a button fly, and has five pockets. Every man should also have the Barbour Thorn Shirt either in blue or white, this stylish shirt has a button down collar, button cuffs, and button chest pocket. You will definitely look stylish if you are wearing this along with jeans and impeccable shoes. Which brings me to another pick of mine; Grenson Stanley Full Brogue shoes, one of Grenson’s eldest shoes. An elegant hand crafted brogue with wing tip, and double leather sole. Any guy will look classy and handsome when wearing these shoes.

As I mentioned I also browsed through the Laboratory Perfumes section and saw the Laboratory Samphire 100 ml. Eau De Toilette. “This brings together the scent of fresh jutiner berries, citrus oils and lavender for a modern scent” well suited for the modern man.

I’d certainly recommend you take a look for yourself.
