ASOS Antony Morato Check Suit Jacket

Antony Morato Check Suit Jacket in Slim Fit

Blazers are the main talking point for any outfit and this Antony Morato blazer is no different. There’s so many different fabrics to choose from, everyone should really own a variety from wool to cotton. This blazer is made from 100% cotton meaning it’s useless for winter but perfect for summer.

Really, every man should own some blazers that he never wears to work. A Blazer that’s unique, that not many people own. That piece of clothing that can be thrown over a white t shirt and black trousers and make it look like you spent an hour getting dressed this morning.

Priced at £140 , I’d say the Antony Morato Check Suit Jacket in Slim Fit does a pretty good job at all of the above mentioned areas. I suppose £140 is kind of a lot of money but it wouldn’t exactly break the bank.

I’m not going to say this blazer is special because it’s not. I could pick out a few different blazers you could buy that would be unique and not many people would own. So whether you buy this one or not is up to you. However, make sure you get one. What ever blazer it is, this summer you will need a quality checked blazer that is neutral, can be worn with different outfits and looks fantastic.

Come to think of it again; you should probably just get the Antony Morato Check Suit Jacket in Slim Fit.

Please note: This brand’s slim suits are cut slightly larger than average, for a close fit it may be advisable to buy a size down.

ASOS Slim Fit Double Breasted Blazer With Gold Buttons 5

So a million people on Instagram have completely fallen in love with double breasted suit jackets, me included. The problem all of us face when trying to find a double breasted suit is they are just too damn expensive and not enough places make them. Here’s a happy ending for us all..

ASOS Slim Fit Double Breasted Blazer With Gold Buttons

Double breasted suits are show stoppers. They are there to make you stand out, to make you look different, to add show everyone your personality. Everyone owns a suit but very very very few people own a double breasted suit. Ask your friends who owns a double breasted suit, some of my friends wont even know what one is.

ASOS are fantastic at designing products that the rich and famous would wear, I suppose that’s why it’s ASOS – As Seen On Stars. Over the years I have really come to rely on ASOS for their quality and their price, sometimes it almost seems too good to be true.

The ASOS Slim Fit Double Breasted Blazer With Gold Buttons is an elegant masterpiece of clothing. Made from 100% Cotton, the design is fabulous, obviously its double breasted with some nice wide notched lapels.

What makes a great double breasted suit is the ability to use it both for work and of course for those days when you want to look absolutely dapper. What contributes massively to looking great on the weekend is some stand out features and all you have to do is glance at the blazer and you will notice what is the standout point with this blazer.

GOLDEN BUTTONS!

The buttons on the blazer are beautiful, the slim fit cut of the blazer is sexy and this is a absolute must buy that deserves to be in your wardrobe.

Want it? Guess how much? £65, not bad eyy?!

ASOS Slim Fit Blazer In Tweed

I don’t believe there is a person on the planet who doesn’t like tweed blazers. If you happen to be the exception then please leave a comment below. For the rest of us, we love wearing tweed and we love looking at others in tweed also. The problem is most tweed blazers or even tweed suits are generally quite expensive. Here’s where my budgeting skills come into play.

After having a look around I found the perfect one – ASOS Slim Fit Blazer In Tweed!

The Blazer

If you have any doubts about ASOS and the quality of their clothing, remove them asap by buying this blazer. This blazer is made from a mixture of wool, acrylic and polyester to create the perfect tweed blazer. The inside is lined with polyester to ensure you have comfort while wearing it, I mean it’s not just about looking good is it? This blazer is designed the same way as your normal slim fit blazer with notched lapels, back vents and flat pockets.

What To Wear It With

Tweed blazers are fantastic for the simple reason they are ridiculously versatile. One of my favourite looks of the tweed blazer is to have a crisp white t-shirt underneath with some black jeans and plain black trainers or shoes. It’s so casual yet so smart and absolutely perfect for the weekend day and night.

Another look is to go smart and wear it with some plain trousers, a white shirt and if you want, throw on a skinny tie and some brogues or oxfords.

Which ever way you choose to make the ASOS Slim Fit Blazer In Tweed work is entirely up to you. Make it your own!

Grab this from ASOS for £75 and complete one more missing piece from your wardrobe.

ASOS Oxford Shoes in Leather

ASOS Oxford Shoes in Leather - Above The Ankles

We all, without exception own a pair of plain black shoes that are absolutely essential to our wardrobes. One thing more important than owning a plain pair of black shoes is keeping them looking fresh and clean. There’s probably nothing worse than having muddy shoes or scuffed tips of your shoes. Keeping them looking brand new and shiny isn’t always as easy as people make out and if you are anything like me then you will probably need to buy a new pair of shoes every 2-3 months. Looking for the right pair can be a little annoying.

Here’s where I come in;

Shoes are just as important for men as they are for women. You want something classy and simple. With black shoes you want them to have that solid black look with a slight shine. The ASOS Oxford Shoes in Leather have that shine and much more. Oxford shoes are a timeless classic with great shape and great colour.

You want a 100% leather shoe and once again the ASOS Oxford Shoes fits the shoe perfectly. Complete with an almond toe finish you are probably thinking this shoe will cost in the region of £60-70. Well you would be wrong on that account. Designed by the ASOS team these bad boys are being sold for £36.00. Bargain? I think so.

Get The Look – #2

above the ankles get the look

This is by far my favourite pic of the week, I can also see that you guys loved it just based on the sheer amount of likes on Instagram. I guess we all liked it for different reasons, mine personally was the bag, I’m actually shopping for a bag now so that could be why. Some of you said you liked the check suit, others the colour and the fit. Whatever your reason here’s how to get the look..

The Look

Comprised of Blues & Blacks this look is simple, yet complex. We all love blue in our outfits, it’s an easy colour to work with, we just understand it. Yet when take that navy blue suit; turn it into a double breasted suit and throw over some checked patterns, you get a whole new ball game. Worn with a simple white shirt, a plain black tie and a simple black leather strapped watch, some might say this look is a little too plain and simplistic but then again that person would be stupid. Combine all of the above with some killer black brogues and a sexy mens black holdall bag – you are a winner!

I have received a lot of direct messages from you guys on Instagram and Twitter asking me about the different jumpers I would recommend. I’m glad you all liked my post and it was great to see some pictures of you in your jumpers and suits. So continuing from that I have decided to compile a list of jumpers from ASOS that are a priced very reasonably under £40.

This lightweight knitted V-neck navy blue jumper is made from 100% Acrylic. This jumper is very light and will appear kind of see through. The V-neck is great when combined with a tie.

This soft merino wool jumper designed by ASOS is one of the most ridiculously comfortable jumpers. As the jumper is regular fit it’s comfortable and not tight, yet because it is 100% merino wool it won’t stretch out and lose it’s shape. With a regular crew neck it will fit perfectly with a nice slim tie. Priced at only £30 it’s well worth it for a wool jumper.

Also available in grey..

This slim fit body hugging jumper is great for all of you who are in shape and want others to be able to see it. It’s waffle textured knit look, looks superb both paired with a suit and worn by itself. When wearing it with a shirt; make sure it’s a single cuffed shirt, double cuffed shirts won’t work with the slim fit sleeves and ribbed cuffs. Only & Sons (The designers) are a Danish brand known for using high quality materials in their jumpers so I’d say this 100% cotton jumper is well worth the price tag of £30.

French Connection Cotton Crew Neck Knitted Jumper

We all know and love FCUK and this jumper is no different. Made from 100% cotton and made in regular fit it’s perfect for wearing over your double cuffed shirt. The cuffs on the jumper are ribbed which is fine because you are still able to roll up the sleeves with ease so you can show off your shirt and cufflinks under your suit. Priced slightly higher than the other jumpers at £40, I don’t really think it’s worth it but if you like designers then I guess you’re paying for the logo.

ASOS Slim Fit Suit Jacket In Navy Pindot

ASOS Slim Fit Suit Jacket In Navy Pindot 5

Funnily enough I don’t have actually own a plain Navy suit, I don’t know why, I guess once a few of my old suits got ruined, I just never bought another plain suit. I’m kind of addicted to suits that are different, I love pin stripes and checked suits. The ASOS Slim Fit Suit Jacket In Navy Pindot is definitely far from a plain suit.

ASOS Slim Fit Suit Jacket In Navy Pindot 5

ASOS as a suit making company isn’t exactly the greatest tailoring company in the world. To be fair to them, they haven’t had that much experience although they are trying and they are doing a pretty good job. The reviews online are fantastic and I know a few of my mates have some ASOS suits and they look pretty decent. I’d say they’ve done a pretty good job on the ASOS Slim Fit Suit Jacket In Navy Pindot.

The Suit

In terms of the quality of this suit, it’s a poly blend, meaning its a mixture of polyester and another material called viscose. A polyblend suit is pretty much the cheapest material of a suit you can buy. The good thing about the suits that are made from polyester is they barely wrinkle and they have this shiny finish to them which is sure to make you stand out.

The suit is a standard two button fastening, which is my prefered favourite, especially for work. The inside lining of the suit jacket is an amazing black shiny texture. The slim fit design looks great as long as you know your size.

Price

So the great thing about the ASOS Slim Fit Suit Jacket In Navy Pindot you can get the whole three piece set; jacket, waistcoat and trousers for £107.

Jacket – £60

Trousers – £25

Waistcoat – £22

Summary

This suit is probably the best suit ASOS have created and considering the fact that it’s a whole three piece for under £110, I have to recommend it to anyone and everyone who wears suits to work. It’s a light suit that looks and feels great. Obviously it’s not the greatest quality suit and you wont look like you’re in a Tom Ford suit but you can’t complain for this wonderful price.

ASOS Brogue Shoes in Leather

ASOS Brogue Shoes in Leather

Since I bought my new The Grey Donegal Slim Fit Suit (Read my post here) I decided I needed new shoes that perfectly match my new suit. I’m ashamed to say I am actually yet to own a pair of brogues (I know right.)

So as you probably guessed, I jumped online and started looking at some shoes. Now the last 2-3 weeks I have bought some shirts, a new suit, a new watch and countless other little things so I suppose the idea of spending more money on new shoes I don’t actually need was a bit daunting. So considering I’m slightly addicted towards looking my best I knew I had to get some shoes so after scrawling through ASOS, I eventually picked out 10 different brogues I would buy.

These brogues are 100% real leather so you know you’re getting real quality. Priced at £40 I definitely grabbed myself a bargain on these brogues. These are great for men who wear slim fitted suits as they aren’t very wide shoes which is pretty much the main reason I didn’t get brogues in the first place. When buying brown shoes it’s a lot more risky in comparison to black shoes. Black shoes are just one set colour, but when it comes to brown, there’s so many different shades of brown and you need to make sure you have the right shade along with the right belt. I decided to get these as they are a dark and light shade of brown at the same time – It’s like the perfect middle colour.

If you want them as well – here’s the link.
