For a Hawaiian shirt, it's actually not too bad :D

Yeah... I was dubious on how ti wrangle this one because I really wanted one, I’ve always wanted one but couldn’t see myself in one. I had to find one that wasn’t ridiculous which isn’t easy. xD

I haven't owned a lacoste item since 09/10 but they're fortunate in a sense like Lyle and Ralph that there designs never really drift too far out of fashion. 

The massive Canada Goose coats seem to be the latest phase in London. I'm guessing they're mostly fake as the coats are so bloody expensive.

I don't usually buy expensive things for myself..

Biggest purchase was a second hand car for just under $8000. 

I did buy a pair of chinos and 2 shirts for about $70 all up the other day in HK. That's about it recently.

There was a massive demonstration outside the Regent Street Canada Goose store two weeks ago.  I was passing by with my wife, my son and my brother in law (he was here visiting from Italy) and we heard all this megaphone chanting... As we got closer we saw that they were camped outside the store (obviously nobody going into the store) with pictures of slaughtered dogs with words telling on how they use dog skin for the fur on their coats and jackets.

They are extremely expensive, but if ever I was to think of buying anything from there, I will now never do so even if they stop using the fur from slaughtered dogs.  Once a murderer, always a murderer for me.

That's put me right off to be fair. I probably wasn't going to get one just because they're becoming a modern day version of Stone Island.

I've also bought a few things with a view to the oncoming summer months (if they ever arrive for us in the UK :ph34r:)...

I don't know if you guys have heard of a British clothing company called SUNSPEL, but they're iconic and make some of the best quality cotton garments in the world and are used quite a bit by the movie industry especially war movies.  Their t-shirts and Riviera Polo Shirts are of the highest quality and incredibly smart.  Anyway, bought one of their plain white t-shirts.  They're not cheap but the difference in quality and fit is unquestionable.

Finally, a pair of summer minimalist cotton trainers to wear with shorts in navy blue by the Spanish company CAMPER.

I bought another guitar.... I may have a problem. But I sold another guitar to make room for it, so I guess it's not so bad. But it's nice, well happy with it.

I haven't got this, but want it:-

It's brilliant, but expensive for what I'd usually be spending on a T-shirt, so I'm not sure I will actually buy it but it's tempting as it looks fucking brilliant.
