Nah they're Loakes, Burfords I think? I wasn't sure about buying them but loved the colour and they're outrageously comfortable. Not too keen on the way the colour of the welt/sole blends into my carpet though.

I had a little look in Grenson at Liverpool street actually for the first time and was quite dissapointed. It's only a tiny shop and the selection isn't that great. £20-40 more expensive than online too.

I ordered a cardigan off topman in the sale but i ordered a small, all of the hoodies i wear from topman are medium

does anyone here have a topman cardigan, if so do you think they are quite big in size and a small will be fine ?

£100 from this place: http://www.xenlondon.com/index.htm

The website is terrible but the physical store is quite good. For those in the East London area, its worth a look.
I forgot to say... they're not like for everyday wear haha! We're doing a comedy play and our characters are eccentric, shallow Hollywood people who think they're celebrities and are trying to convince they're new found relatives they're famous when in reality they're not. We're making costumes! I forgot to say that - I wouldn't wear glitter jeans in real life! Sorry for panicking everyone!

I'm making my own jeans next week. I stole the idea off a friend.

I'm going to get some black topman slim jeans and sponge glittery silver fabric paint on to them in patches. Then get a fabric glue and sprinkle little bits of super fine black glitter all over the jeans (not too much). They looked cool on my friend so I want some :smile:

Haha a lot of people wouldn't like them but I do! I'm probably not going to end up making them as I doubt I could pull them off as something my character would wear. I do need a ridiculously eccentric costume though.

I didn't mean to scare everyone. I don't mean I was going to wear them like outside - it's for a play I'm doing. I edited above. I probably shouldn't have commented about it in this thread.

Does anyone know any sites, that sell casual blazers?


Do you mean blazer (naval styled) or a sports jacket?

CT do a great casual blazer here, their unstructured blazers are good too but look a bit more tatty than the one I've mentioned http://www.ctshirts.co.uk/men%27s-outerwear/men%27s-blazers-and-jackets/Navy-jersey-tailored-fit-blazer?q=gbpdefault||BL033NAV|||||||||||||#
Thoughts on these? http://www.asos.com/ASOS/ASOS-Lace-Up-Desert-Boots/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=1726272&cid=14789&sh=0&pge=2&pgesize=20&sort=-1&clr=Black

Really need some black shoes of some kind and they are half price at the moment. Open to any other suggestions..

I think they're really nice. On trend and £21 is a bargain! Suede is a nightmare to keep clean though.

I bought these earlier for £30 from TKMaxx;

They look better in person - the leather is very nice.

Any opinions?

I'm hoping to get some whitish jeans to go with them. I'd really like something like the Levi STA-PREST to go with them, but you can't really get them (for a reasonable price) anywhere.;

Hey guys i'm looking for a good suit shop that sell well-fitted slim/skinny suits, preferably in navy blue.
I've tried Zara, Topman and Burton but to no avail, so hopefully someone can suggest a good shop with an online store :smile:

EDIT: I'm not looking to buy a suit online, just to have a look at them with a view to buying them in store.

You can't buy a suit from an online store, unless you know exactly which suit it is.
Really tempted to get some stuff from GAP as they're doing 30% off their selection atm (plus I think you can get a further 15% off if you sign up for their newsletter). Not sure if my bank balance will allow it though...

Had my eyes on these

Why are Gap now doing "clean shirts", and what exactly are they?

Remember to size down with a lot of gap stuff, it's quite relaxed in fit.

I've been thinking of picking up a pair of GAP jeans, opinions on...
