Casual/Affordable Weekend Menswear/ WELCOME!

First and foremost, welcome to Ben & Benjamin. I've had the idea of creating a blog for months, and today, my ideas turned into a reality. As an apprentice hairdresser, even when growing up, I fell in love with all things hair, beauty and fashion; three of the industries I hope to expand into as I develop my career and future. Through this blog, I am able to share my experiences, inspiration and opinions while I develop my personal aesthetic and grow as a creative individual. In personal experiences I have found that there is two sides to my style, as there is in most people; A side of me which loves the casual and simple things in life, while the other loves to delve into the finer, more sophisticated surroundings that materialise our world, hence the name 'Ben & Benjamin'. I am incredibly lucky to have people in my life who support me on every journey I take, and this one is no exception; So without further or do, lets begin this journey in true Sunday style.

When I think of a well-spent weekend, good company, lots of laughs and bliss surroundings come straight to mind; And in true Sunday-spirit, its only natural to look and feel comfortable. A comfy pair of sneakers, shorts and a seasonal polo make for a great weekend outfit that is ready to wear on multiple occasions. Whether you're lounging around the house or heading out to lunch with your closest friends and family, its imperative that you look and feel the best you possibly can, however, doing so doesn't have to cost an absolute fortune. 

Polo: French Connection

Denim Shorts: JayJays

Belt: Roger David

Shoes: Nike

Bag: Ben Sherman

Wallet: Hershel

Phone Case: Louis Vuitton

'Nike Air Max' sneakers make for the perfect comfy alternative, while adding a sporty edge to any outfit.

This 'French Connection' Polo acts as a perfect neutral, while providing a pop of colour and edge, due to the printed mesh cut-out which adorns the shoulders and chest.

Ah 'Ben Sherman', you've done it again. A large carry bag like this is an essential to keep those weekend treasures safe and secure, whether you're planning a worry-free or wild one. 

For those last minute errands you have to run before the week begins, a minimalistic wallet with plenty of room is a must have, and 'Hershel' has hit the nail on the head with this one! Additionally, a touch of 'Louis Vuitton' is always the answer.
