Mainly down to the fact that there was not only a whole floor dedicated to men's accessories, but there were so many of them on show at the, well, shows. This is indeed a great, and momentous thing. Not only was menswear representing, but accessories were as well. Something we were proud to see.<br /><br />Amongst the accessory floor, we found Irish Designer <a href="http://www.pauricsweeney.com/" target="_blank">Pauric Sweeney</a>. Although originally from the Emerald Island, he can now be found in Italy creating the most beautiful bags for women, and now men. London Collections staged the platform for the designer to launch his new manbag collection showcasing the most beautiful soft leather ever on every bag.<br /><br />With a host of international stores already stocking, and a new flagship store in London opening soon, this is one to bag man to watch.bloggertestpagehpmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05946841181498331066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1682360043838773487.post-76715741308403872442012-06-22T14:21:00.000-07:002012-06-25T02:42:17.527-07:00London Collections Men: Marwood<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCWh9hGDsFiq4avjrr0z1wSTOMUqWsUuEJfm77zhr9fW5YSB_8aRNu80t5rFD1n-xqSoAbTnrMXNGMJptCLnUTqDGUxBEvwzradECob5KreWbZ-4pGHprUt80LENWtpxAppEMIi4-LHyU/s1600/P1100043.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCWh9hGDsFiq4avjrr0z1wSTOMUqWsUuEJfm77zhr9fW5YSB_8aRNu80t5rFD1n-xqSoAbTnrMXNGMJptCLnUTqDGUxBEvwzradECob5KreWbZ-4pGHprUt80LENWtpxAppEMIi4-LHyU/s400/P1100043.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXNU6fWBXgl99gj3phTVyhXOE8nG2RO-lElNI93rplzRGL_XI2HwaECPEn-9r1ypuSxFUUTi9Nj_hpLh_PzzWtkLuurDqRBYqCoHQCbDHIUUF7AlUJMlGnZzyklLDDYgFEY94iMZs8Qsw/s1600/P1100041.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXNU6fWBXgl99gj3phTVyhXOE8nG2RO-lElNI93rplzRGL_XI2HwaECPEn-9r1ypuSxFUUTi9Nj_hpLh_PzzWtkLuurDqRBYqCoHQCbDHIUUF7AlUJMlGnZzyklLDDYgFEY94iMZs8Qsw/s400/P1100041.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQE4HOx1JAI149tqWy70nCghzX8S-QPMrxaj0FUUOb42yX5ULLLt1JR4xJ3Q4PfqUm97dYGEH6aRns6fDj4pvvACwjzMSd2NtSfsXaAQBUfc72ltzU4Wr_3NEeASsEW56-O9UsjS2oASc/s1600/P1100042.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQE4HOx1JAI149tqWy70nCghzX8S-QPMrxaj0FUUOb42yX5ULLLt1JR4xJ3Q4PfqUm97dYGEH6aRns6fDj4pvvACwjzMSd2NtSfsXaAQBUfc72ltzU4Wr_3NEeASsEW56-O9UsjS2oASc/s400/P1100042.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqI772Imws5VL8KHz7NeDZo0gxgFpHZ2uQF43Ls7acisWEwQzG-4SvHe52eQIbT_Vz4_IVly0DQQolbuJMXJWiRIzWbaf7nlqSr7Y6UwE6NzPjhYXdykGXdc1siNf2h3hosPujVZjHW4k/s1600/P1100045.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqI772Imws5VL8KHz7NeDZo0gxgFpHZ2uQF43Ls7acisWEwQzG-4SvHe52eQIbT_Vz4_IVly0DQQolbuJMXJWiRIzWbaf7nlqSr7Y6UwE6NzPjhYXdykGXdc1siNf2h3hosPujVZjHW4k/s400/P1100045.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSuMcYDhZGao0IYP9ztJdj-s-ayN3pz7V36057OtssyNrbc-1vOZD1v8qyPXsmblJ_thgo4q4nZWb00WpO_AH0h_W1r0Bixdd8DhSWzKXLXmUNsM3qZNO_ScM_MfywTrBw2OzQ2B_hQ2k/s1600/P1100048.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSuMcYDhZGao0IYP9ztJdj-s-ayN3pz7V36057OtssyNrbc-1vOZD1v8qyPXsmblJ_thgo4q4nZWb00WpO_AH0h_W1r0Bixdd8DhSWzKXLXmUNsM3qZNO_ScM_MfywTrBw2OzQ2B_hQ2k/s400/P1100048.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZyF4hyphenhyphen4w1PvhzM3gLVV6FCzonS_9khyphenhyphenlZDVogd6AefG-8Fay1I-SkQ3yQbFyMxLQGdyLmFA-Pnr7hnfwFCMu-ZpsO-i9ynz9RGnpj5PGNjpeJq59swzhqZGt-VNnwWAI3Qor2kTBsmGU/s1600/P1100051.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZyF4hyphenhyphen4w1PvhzM3gLVV6FCzonS_9khyphenhyphenlZDVogd6AefG-8Fay1I-SkQ3yQbFyMxLQGdyLmFA-Pnr7hnfwFCMu-ZpsO-i9ynz9RGnpj5PGNjpeJq59swzhqZGt-VNnwWAI3Qor2kTBsmGU/s400/P1100051.JPG" width="300" /></a></div>You know us Brits love a bow tie, and there were plenty on show at London Collections Men.

Well, it could contain the following; mobile, tablet, pen, note book, headphones, hair brush, various skin care products, gym gear, water bottle, laptop the list really does go on. So how do you carry all of these items around? Often it means carrying around a number of different bags, but <a href="http://www.christibor.com/" target="_blank">Chris & Tibor</a> have different ideas.<br /><br />They have invented 'The Strong Holdall Collection' for SS2013. This bag is strong enough withstand the weight of all of the above items, plus much more. However, the best part is not just in its strengh, it is in its looks. The brand has stayed focused on creating a beautifully designed bag for the everyday man.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.christibor.com/" target="_blank">Chris & Tibor</a> also make a number of other London named manbags from<a href="http://shop.christibor.com/bags.html" target="_blank"> The Shoreditch, to The Barbican</a>.

Anything from Scotland we love. So to mix the two into one beautiful fashion brand got us very excited. London Collections introduced us to <a href="http://www.hancock1843.com/home.php" target="_blank">HANCOCK</a>, who draw their inspiration from Thomas Hancock, the English inventor who founded the British rubber industry.<br /><br />Back in the day of 1843, Hancock took out a patent for the vulcanisation of rubber using sulphur, 8 weeks before Charles Goodyear in the USA, and the rest was history.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.hancock1843.com/home.php">Hancock </a>Vulcanised Articles are hand-made at a factory in Scotland, to create their iconic pieces, and are very much a modern day twist on a old school luggage classic.bloggertestpagehpmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05946841181498331066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1682360043838773487.post-49382998979800860042012-06-19T03:00:00.000-07:002012-06-25T02:42:17.601-07:00Thomas Sabo Press Day at The Langham Hotel<div class="separator" style="clear: both;

I was invited down to their latest press day in the grand location of <a href="http://london.langhamhotels.co.uk/">The Langham Hotel</a>, to see the latest offering.<br /><br />We were greeted with quaint hot scones, cream and jam and a glass of bubbly. Then the understated bling of the products caught our eye, and we moved over to the men's collection. Rings, cuff-links, bracelets and watches were on display all with the classic <a href="http://www.thomassabo.com/GB-en/" target="_blank">Thomas Sabo</a> markings. Our favourite piece has got to be the inter-locking chain ring, which reminds us of our own Celtic heritage.<br /><br />To top off the day, we finished with handmade cupcakes, which were adorned with an actual crystal!

To say I was a little nervous, would've been...... well, very true! The cheeky chap did a sterling job, and I love my new style.

I did though, and it was a craze that swept over every chap at the weekend, and will continue over the summer.</span><br /><br />The history of a handkerchief hat can originally be found from the UK industrial age, when workers first started having holidays but couldn't afford special summer clothing. Later it became a comic cliche with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Python">Monty Python </a>rocking the look. Today, it was been resurrected by the chaps at <a href="http://www.dashingtweeds.co.uk/">Dashing Tweeds</a> and modernised for today's dandy. <br /><br />The new hat is a cross between a flat cap (at the front), and a knotted handkerchief (at the back). The craze is set to continue with the <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/HankyHat">Hanky </a>chaps recording a cheeky song this week, to be released on iTunes.

Taking inspiration from the highways and byways of the United States, the ‘Highwayman’ collection draws upon the raw and masculine feel of the road<br /><br />Joining him for the presentation, and instead of a normal catwalk show the 'models' strutted across the top of the Hix bar, with jewellery front and center. London icons <a href="http://garykemp.com/" target="_blank">Gary Kemp</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Kemp_(entertainer)" target="_blank">Martin Kemp</a> and<a href="http://www.nickyclarke.com/" target="_blank"> Nicky Clarke </a>were the chosen models for the day strutting across the bar to a soundtrack including ‘Gold’ by Spandau Ballet. <br /><br />Styled by Jessica Punter of GQ, with clothes from British brands <a href="http://www.spencerhart.com/index.html" target="_blank">Spencer Hart</a>, <a href="http://www.paulsmith.co.uk/shop/home/" target="_blank">Paul Smith </a>and Hayward; the models carried bags created by <a href="http://www.stephenwebster.com/" target="_blank">Stephen Webster</a> in collaboration with <a href="http://www.billamberg.com/" target="_blank">Bill Amberg</a>. In quintessentially British style, HIX served a full English breakfast together with a choice of builder’s tea or Gin tea created by <a href="http://www.beefeatergin.com/" target="_blank">Beefeater</a>.<br /><br /><i>‘This collection is inspired by the road trips I take each year with my friend Jeff in our fully restored 1959 Thunderbird. Jeff and I have driven across the whole of the US including Route 66 and twice into Canada. During each trip I write a diary logging the experiences and the adventures we incur. This is a man's jewellery collection inspired by these journeys. The base of the collection is silver but many finishes and gems have been used, resulting in a slick modern collection to suit the speed freak, the Sunday driver and even the back seat driver. The one thing in common is the enjoyment of the open road and escapism.’</i><br /><div style="text-align: right;"><a href="http://www.stephenwebster.com/" target="_blank">Stephen Webster</a><br /><div style="text-align: left;">For more pictures of the presentation, check out <a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.398388440198400.79112.159742254063021&type=3" target="_blank">Maketh-The-Man's Facebook page.</a></div></div>bloggertestpagehpmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05946841181498331066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1682360043838773487.post-36561239889499840532012-06-17T15:56:00.000-07:002012-06-25T02:42:17.661-07:00London Collections Men - The Outtakes<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB6QSl2wpif1BgGLZAwMEIUriwjBs7EtTPrlXsTDEqcQH_bKOUlWmebQM3hBvQjcnmB-WuLq1F58PAPMztQCqkQmm2SFq826jW496iBB7fakZm4drqQ9i460r1LQAY_AbqOxwAxXJKPSM/s1600/20120615_142923.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB6QSl2wpif1BgGLZAwMEIUriwjBs7EtTPrlXsTDEqcQH_bKOUlWmebQM3hBvQjcnmB-WuLq1F58PAPMztQCqkQmm2SFq826jW496iBB7fakZm4drqQ9i460r1LQAY_AbqOxwAxXJKPSM/s400/20120615_142923.jpg" width="225" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaUCUPr0bysnthKt9qwCg9D8SPti0J37FIrGUDKANB1bUY9r0kb5gIsicVeadWyXWqT7e4kDHkfqDk23NjFrpFDz3QZuDgm2OB7D4q2k5z6PRnSvUbFlsUNKM2DF25T5EVhfG18kdEdzA/s1600/20120617_180715.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaUCUPr0bysnthKt9qwCg9D8SPti0J37FIrGUDKANB1bUY9r0kb5gIsicVeadWyXWqT7e4kDHkfqDk23NjFrpFDz3QZuDgm2OB7D4q2k5z6PRnSvUbFlsUNKM2DF25T5EVhfG18kdEdzA/s400/20120617_180715.jpg" width="225" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCLKA2RdJBvnPFKit7MazcdnumXv2G8b-LqwfgBUHKiSCR-rZYfdhIsJm1VYkBe4z9MUvzf-zNcR5Hg3ogtc3asSfP60gNmj7P22PJTXSudgF9UB9vQf_soafZ7CyamNA-wluFw4FfgJ4/s1600/P1100017.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCLKA2RdJBvnPFKit7MazcdnumXv2G8b-LqwfgBUHKiSCR-rZYfdhIsJm1VYkBe4z9MUvzf-zNcR5Hg3ogtc3asSfP60gNmj7P22PJTXSudgF9UB9vQf_soafZ7CyamNA-wluFw4FfgJ4/s400/P1100017.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9x2zBueQvgHiSSSMghRPTvtbxz5WP4QPZIL5dsnjgnVe_DrIwcXPeDf7sGDqpQQWvANru1nyFDlPGF2qFpM5ic5EeieNat0_3ta_zH51Y7p094f2lRUJpjA-D1YFlXdJdUli8_RxJKQs/s1600/20120616_165242.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9x2zBueQvgHiSSSMghRPTvtbxz5WP4QPZIL5dsnjgnVe_DrIwcXPeDf7sGDqpQQWvANru1nyFDlPGF2qFpM5ic5EeieNat0_3ta_zH51Y7p094f2lRUJpjA-D1YFlXdJdUli8_RxJKQs/s400/20120616_165242.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj7zpt9oXbPyObxOaYCZIyyPJatD3baP4eIigdgQizgD9zs56JMBUFkOVZRvXSLydfesPjcnKXbJiV-F0Qdse3ZRVO6fumtfvH_t-Ltr5mNq9Qph3fWHtSaJWKktipoAuOnbA4S7N4C1Y/s1600/20120615_142947.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj7zpt9oXbPyObxOaYCZIyyPJatD3baP4eIigdgQizgD9zs56JMBUFkOVZRvXSLydfesPjcnKXbJiV-F0Qdse3ZRVO6fumtfvH_t-Ltr5mNq9Qph3fWHtSaJWKktipoAuOnbA4S7N4C1Y/s400/20120615_142947.jpg" width="225" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjgkvQ0GtfahnILsPwP_qR-Y716b9Bh1XI3trIcJaa5VDh4pJo05oxGAX8rzhW2hMUddQQ6jsDnlWs0YZpYINon6tJt9N0zZCoZo3S1z0DghK5b-zXuvFUv23pd78sSXCtvv9RkmW1QOc/s1600/Fashion156-street-style4-570x268.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="187" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjgkvQ0GtfahnILsPwP_qR-Y716b9Bh1XI3trIcJaa5VDh4pJo05oxGAX8rzhW2hMUddQQ6jsDnlWs0YZpYINon6tJt9N0zZCoZo3S1z0DghK5b-zXuvFUv23pd78sSXCtvv9RkmW1QOc/s400/Fashion156-street-style4-570x268.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><a href="http://www.londoncollections.co.uk/men" target="_blank">London Collections Men</a> finally hit our streets this weekend.

Inspired by sailing and kite flying, the collection demonstrates how industrial details and dynamics can transform traditional outerwear.<br /><br />The apparel fuses classic shapes with the modern and technical details seen in athletic sport apparel. The footwear design is distinct, clean and methodical, capturing the interplay of sport, motion and speed through lightweight materials and minimal yet supportive constructions. The final touches seen in the accessories are inspired by the tradition of colour used in Japanese Kabuki theatre. The reds and violets take the collection to new heights, perfect for the summer months and reflect the pace of everyday life.<br /><div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><o:p></o:p></div>bloggertestpagehpmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05946841181498331066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1682360043838773487.post-83980284116508065552012-05-31T04:21:00.000-07:002012-06-25T02:42:17.688-07:00Excalibur from Storm may give you magical powers<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi97xgt0q3pekTkrh3nV6xN4yp2vaZunpkrfM4Brv_lG5sud1kJwgDDUOMcgnqkW4Kbhvf-kKF3msa3x_-mKZnlMq0XBfDeDJ7QUZU-3lluNoiISCt-D2izBRu-ZdEsE5B0KwTdSrFhAZU/s1600/Excalibur_silver%5B1%5D.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi97xgt0q3pekTkrh3nV6xN4yp2vaZunpkrfM4Brv_lG5sud1kJwgDDUOMcgnqkW4Kbhvf-kKF3msa3x_-mKZnlMq0XBfDeDJ7QUZU-3lluNoiISCt-D2izBRu-ZdEsE5B0KwTdSrFhAZU/s400/Excalibur_silver%5B1%5D.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><a href="http://www.stormwatches.com/" target="_blank">Excalibur from Storm Watches</a>!
