Latest Pick Up's - Shirt Splurge...



Okay, Over the past two years my love of shirts has grown into a rather smutty affectction. Every young chaps wardrobe should boast an array of shirts, correct? Well i used to save shirts for more formal occassions, or wear them soley under a roundneck / cardigan. All aboard the boat of change, perhaps it's because i'm getting older but its safe to say my transofrmation into fully blown shirt aficionado is complete, none better displayed in my recent pick ups....


Three shirts of different stature and for different occassions. From left to right, Albam Jude check shirt. Perect weight and a nice fit one would come to expect from the London based label whose quality and understated coolness is a thing that cannot be questioned. The details are ace and the check is vivid but not overpowering. A nice addition if i do say so.


Next up is my personal favorate out of the three. I've been searching for a decent Chambray for a while and almost opted for Universal Work's indigo effort, but i wanted something more chilled and relaxed... This MHL by Margaret Howell is perfect, make no mistake - i'll be droping this gem with a pair of Deck shoes and newly acquired AM bamfords while ambling around the seaside somewhere.... Perfect, Now where's my yacht keys?


Last but certainly not least is this fruity little number from Swedish label Velour. There's something about the colour combination that really gets me and therefore it now has a privileged position in le' wardrobe. The fit is kind of loose, but i like that with this particular shirt... I'm thinking nice pair of Chore Shorts from YMC and Red supergas and Vola, dressed to kill and ready to hit the beer garden...


All in all, a decent trio of summer flavoured shirts that can be worn in an array of outfits and alas, one happy chappy whose looking forward to long summer days and outside parties. Beautiful.
