What's hot?
Seeing as this must be my third belated post in a row now, I feel it is only fair to offer my faithful readers some explanation as to why I've been so inactive. I'd love to say I've been busy expanding my creative horizons through meticulous study of the latest upmarket trends, or that I've been occupied with the creation of an exciting new range of animal themed bow ties; however, the fact remains that I've been doing school stuff. Yes, I've fallen victim to the horrors of revision, and, as my A level's judgement day draws ever nearer, I don't see myself escaping the pull of typical, nervous pre-exam cramming. Which, to my deepest sadness, means even less blogging. Sorry all.Anyway, in keeping with the theme of bad excuses, a particularly exciting essay on the impact of European relations in the period 1979 to 2007 has inhibited me from preparing a proper blog. So I've gone for (yet another) classic what's hot list. You know the drill: I show you a bunch of exciting, unique and quirky items, in return I give my wealthier readers the opportunity to buy me them by way of thanks (let never it be said that I am not a kind blogger!).
To make in some part up for my disgraceful lack of blogging over the last weeks, I've tried to throw in a few items which are a little more unusual. And I've tried my best to avoid Topman, H&M and River Island for a change - no easy task, believe me! So here you go. I'll try to do a proper outfit post next time. Also, don't think I've forgotten my prom suit promise; as soon as I've stuck some diamantes on the shirt, photos will be posted!
Creeper sneakers! As much as I usually detest anything with 'sneakers' in its name, I have to admit that I can actually see the advantages to these. As a tall guy, I'm forever tormented by a limit to fairly flat soled shoes. I have a pair of beautiful 1 inch flatform creepers which I've worn about once in my life, tragically. These beauties, to me, represent the solution. Also, thinking about it, I seem to be forever driving places in trainers (about the only thing I use them for) then hurriedly changing into nicer shoes when I arrive. Creeper sneakers could solve this problem as well.
(TUK footwear, £60 each)
(Vivienne Westwood salt and pepper leather jacket, £675)
(Golden Goose studded leather Gilet £626.93)
Leather leather everywhere and not a myth left from the ghetto....No other Bowie fans here? Never mind. You don't need to like David Bowie to love leather. And what's not to love about these two gorgeous leather jackets (alright, one's technically a gilet). I don't know about you, but diagonal zips and studs really turn me on.

These shirts are the embodiment of snazziness. I'd never heard of Ezra Wine until I stumbled across a small collection of his shirts and jumpers on asos. I'm already a fan. Fantastically, the shirts I've selected here are all reduced from about £140 to about £60.
