Which Watch are you?

A good watch can be used as mans most useful weapon when out and about, as women tend to judge a guy first by his overall outfit then by his watch. If your perched up by a bar with your hand cupping your drink then your watch is in full view of any lady stood next to you. If your sat on the tube reading the Metro, then your watch is at eye level of the passenger sat next to you. In some ways you could look at the female race almost like magpies they are attracted to shiny things!

Now we would all love a personalised Cartier shiner on our wrists, however the likelihood of you being able to whack out around £30,000 smackers is near to none.

However don't despair gents, as there are plenty of other options available to you at a fraction of the price!







All Hail "Uniform Wares 100 Series steel watch £120" With it's simple design it oozes sophistication with a playful edge!














Welcome "Casio's A168WG-9EF Gold Plated Digital Watch £40" The retro icon keeps popping back up on the fashion radar, if you tend to shop down Bricklane, or hang out round Camden Lock, then this is the watch for you!













The "city boy" watch "Emporio Armani AR3124 Diamond Set Mens Watch" This watch oozes taste and money, however at £299.00 it's a bargain! The magpies will be eying up the diamond detailing on the face.

Johnny Depp: A red carpet debonair

Johnny Depp has to be one of the most versatile actors Hollywood has ever seen. He's played anything from fictional chocolate factory owners to infamous bank robbers and yet his own personality is still so unknown.

However his red carpet style has caught our eye. The quirky double breasted blazers, interesting tweeds or printed tuxes and we particularly favor those thick framed glasses! 

If you have a big event coming up definitely turn to Mr Depp for some style inspiration!

An Interview With.....

Matthew Zorpas from The Gentleman Blogger!! We have caught up with new blogger on the block who is taking the fashion world by storm!

Tell us a little bit about yourself?

I was born in Cyprus and I moved to London six years ago to study Public Relations. I have been supporting young generation designers for the past six years and I was voted the 2nd Best Dressed Man in Britain by Esquire magazine UK in 2010. I am also working as a freelance digital consultant and I am now passing my knowledge by teaching the Business of Luxury course at Istituto Marangoni. I continue to explore my passions and enjoying what this city is offering the most, creativity and innovation. Last week, I launched 'The Gentleman Blogger' which is my personal journey, full of discoveries, towards becoming an elegant gentleman ...



• How/when/why did you start blogging?  
 
The Gentleman Blogger launched on the 26 of July 2012, after Diane Pernet suggested I should start my own blog. I felt the need to inspire, to confuse and challenge traditional men's style.  
 
• What are your influences when it comes to getting dressed in the morning? 
 
The people that I'm planning to meet on the day.
 
• What's your favourite item in your wardrobe and why? 
 
I am a big fan of white shirts. They just add a sparkle of perfection to any outfit. 
 
 • Where is your favourite place to shop? 
 
The Box Boutique for ultimate slippers, COS for casual outdoor clothes, Ozwald Boateng for suits and Richard James for accessories. 
 
• Give us a style no-go: 
 
Suits and trainers are a faux-pas. 
 
• What's your perfect summer outfit? 
 
It turns out to be my double-breasted navy blue suit by Reiss with a yellow dog-printed handkerchief. 
 
• What is your favourite item in our website? 
Mark Thomas Taylor Navy Riviera Shorts! 
 
• What's on your wishlist for A/W 2012? 
 
From established brands I have my eyes to Jil Sander paper bag and the Costume National rain jacket! From young designers keeping an eye to Six Lee new knitwear pieces. 
 
 • Where do you see yourself in 10 years time? 
 
I would love to work for European Committee or Cyprus Embassy in their cultural department. I like working on creative projects which directly help young people and make a difference to the world. 
 
 • Who is your style icon? 
 
Looking at the past Federico Fellini is a figure that constantly comes to mind for inspiration. His ultimate sharp look, but also his movies have turned into my main creative drive.

Mulberrys solution for your money!

As we were browsing Mulberrys online store, we came across this little gem! We, like most of you men out there have a bi-fold wallet, this way we can store both our cash and cards. We love the idea of a money clip, however, this only holds our cash, the same applies to credit card holders.

It's the slimline effect of these style wallets which captures us. No more bulky pockets or storing of receipts which just don't need! Alas we have yet to find a wallet which offers us theses qualities until we came across this.......




As you can see, the front holds all of your cards and in the middle is a slot for your cash! WALLAH!! we have found our dream money holder and only for a mere £90.00 buy it here
