Salotto and Roda, to get this down early, is excellent. Really excellent. In fact, easily the hardest thing about writing the rest of this review was not simply repeating variations on that over and over again. …
While money doesn’t always buy happiness, it pays for many other things that do make us happy. These are the highest paid jobs in the UK.
Getting your hair cut at the barbers can be a tricky affair and at times, it’s you may think it’s best to just sit there in silence. If you do want to make small talk though, which lets face it, you may as well, then there are some strict rules you should abide by. Lets not forget that those skilled barbers have been on their feet all day cutting hair, so you’re nothing special. They can be moody creatures at times and, as they’re tasked with making you look fresh, it may be a good idea to keep them on side. You don’t have to go out of your way to become best mates, but some simple etiquette would likely come in handy. Take a look at our 10 things you shouldn’t do at the barbers, and you’ll be on the right path.
As one of the most recognisable British clothing brands, Aquascutum is renowned for their supreme quality and expert craftsmanship. Founded in 1851, they have been producing timeless clothing for over 150 years and continue to be the chosen brand of those who seek unprecedented design and finish. No corners are cut in the construction of an Aquascutum garment and as such the brand has gathered plenty of praise over the years, establishing a reputation as masters of tailoring and outerwear.
Here are three brilliantly bizarre rallies that, at some point in your life, need to feature on your résumé.
Every summer the world’s finest tennis players descend upon London, for what are universally recognised to be two of the world’s greatest and most prestigious tennis tournaments; Queens and the Wimbledon Championships. The history behind both events is unparalleled and it is this prestige and tradition that make them unmissable not only for the British public, but the entire sporting universe. That said, while Queens is a great event in its own right, Wimbledon is undoubtedly the main highlight. It is a quintessentially British affair, and strawberries, cream, picnics and boater hats are just as much of a mainstay as the tennis itself. Given the time-honoured tradition behind both Wimbledon and Queens, they lend well to those wanting to make an effort with their attire, so if you want to look well-turned out be sure to follow our handy gentleman’s guide to dressing for the tennis.
Welcome, Gents, to the VO FALCON – the most expensive sporting rifle on the planet.
Trust Nike to do it big. Released yesterday, the sport’s brand 5 minute World Cup animated advert has already racked up almost 4 million views – and that number is increasing rapidly.
Lo and behold, treetop lodges of sobering charm have blossomed in some of the most stunning and secluded regions of the planet, far surpassing even my wildest creativities. I therefore gracefully admit defeat, and instead turn your attention to our top 7 picks of the finest out there.
Surely, a luxury apartment is up there near the top of every gentleman’s wish list. Anything a NYC penthouse can offer, London’s apartments and penthouses can match – if not surpass. In fact, our property of the week is thorough testament to this.
Whilst many of us will dream of one day purchasing a Mercedes-Benz or a Porsche, the uber-rich are aiming their slights just a little higher. There are a number of vehicles available today that cost as much as small countries, and although they may not be made of solid gold, they do offer unrivalled exclusivity and ultimate bragging rights for their millionaire owners. Whilst not always the best looking or quickest in a straight line, these cars are all extremely rare and, at the end of the day, that is half of what you’re paying for.
Ever since Tata Motors acquired the British brand in 2008, Jaguar has been on an absolute role, producing some of the best looking, most desirable luxury cars on the market. Their current line-up is the strongest it’s ever been and the introduction of the F-Type last year solidified their place as arguably the most diverse British car brand. Gone are the days of old-fashioned, overweight atrocities, namely the S-Type. Now, the Jaguar name is synonymous with style, performance and forward-thinking design, but best of all is how they manage to stay true to their image by harking back to their lustrous heritage.
The world of men’s hair moves at a relatively slow pace. As we all know, the fashion world operates on a cyclical basis and trends come and go like the wind. Over the last few years though, the haircut of choice for dapper gents has been the side part and it still remains incredibly popular today. A haircut of military origin, the side part was pretty much the only style that was worn by men throughout the early 20th century right up to the 1960s.
Cinema and film has always been closely linked to fashion. Over time some of the biggest trends have been created through the medium of film, and stylish gents the world over have always been inspired by leading men from behind the camera. Certain characters stand above the rest though, and they’ll forever be remembered for their impeccable sense of style, which has been immortalised on the silver screen, creating legends that will never fade. Here is our list of the best-dressed movie characters of all time.
With today marking the opening of the Aegon Championships at The Queen’s Club, where in the 2012 final David Nalbandian saw every ounce of his self control percolate from his being in spectacular fashion, we look at the top 5 tennis tantrums to have exploded on court.
Adidas has created a football that will monitor your techniques and give you feedback on your performance via an iOS app.
Rob Reiner’s new film, And So It Goes, is set to be released in UK cinemas on July 18th.
At the end of May – and for the first time ever – British Polo Day launched across the pond with an event at the Will Rogers Polo Club in the USA.
