MEN'S CAMBRIDGE SATCHELS

I came across a few Cambridge Satchels on ASOS, and about a year ago I definitely would of passed on them but I absolutely love them now. Traditionally stylish!

LOVE A BIT OF PUNK

As much as I love my white collars and knitted jumpers, there is an inner punk somewhere inside of me urging to break out. 

Sometimes it does - I'd love more than anything to just wake up one day dye my hair pink, rip my jeans up and possibly pierce my nose. Maybe one day eh? 

I would sell my soul to the devil for Hedi Slimane to reinvent me - he's an absolute genius. The Fall 13 Menswear collection for Saint Laurent is beautiful. I particularly loved the styling he did for Daft Punk's new album Random Access Memories - the iconic sequin-dipped suits are stunning. Oh, and I seriously want one of those helmets!

EAST CLUB: THE TRENCH COAT

British menswear brand East Club was created in 2012 by designer Juan Acevedo. Designs by East Club are classic, playful and have a beautiful luxury edge - the dapper gentleman's style nailed in one.

Below is a piece that is quite a gem from the SS13 collection, the navy trench coat! Priced at £328, it will be available for purchase via the website this coming Monday. 

This particular piece is 100% cotton twill and has candy stripe lining detailed onto the coat. Modern with a quirky edge - ticks all the boxes for me.
