I’m really excited about this post on my Larson & Jennings watch, its one of my favourite accessories.

Larsson & Jennings is a Swiss Made watch brand reimagining classic design through contemporary craftsmanship and style, creating harmony between art and precision. That is uses locally sourced leather from Anglo-Swedish tanneries combine with hand-finished metals to deliver premium detailing and durability.

My Larsson & Jennings is from the Lugano Collection. The Lugano has a subtle detailed white dial, brown leather strap which is then accentuated by the pop of gold of the hands and logo. Also something the I didn't realise at the time of purchase is that you can personalise the leather straps online or any of Larsson & Jennings store, which I think I will doing that soon.

I’m really happy with it as the watch lends itself to a more casual style but still manages to have its own individuality.  It has a medium size face which I wouldn’t normally choose but it feels really comfortable and not too heavy at all.  Check out how I styled the Lugano with my spring outfit post which is on the blog now.

After living in Stockholm for 7 months now, I have realised it's not that easy to guess the right clothes to wear each day. As the weather changes very quickly every week. So I try to dress in a versatile way that I can deal with any sudden changes in temperature.  It's mid-March in Stockholm and last week it was snowing and this week it's starting to look like Spring.  The great thing about Stockholm is, I am surrounded by beautiful old houses, which provide the perfect backdrop for my blog post. I found this backdrop to this post in Gamla Enskede. Lucky enough today was cold but dry and sunny so creating the perfect colour pallet ready to snap this coat and sneakers. The coat itself is Tan smart overcoat by River Island, it's not too thick but warm enough to enough up in sunny spring day. The sweater I'm wearing is by design duo living in Europe with immaculate personal style from Art Come First, it's part of their "Leader of Pack" range and you can find your local stockist online.  I’d also like to give a special mention to these AMI sneakers, I’ve had my eye on them for a while before I bought them. They are definitely an investment piece, but again it's a style that is really in fashion right now. I managed to find these pieces on ASOS and Mr Porter, which are great places to look for current trends and both sites are awesome curations of brands that you might not find anywhere else. I’ve really enjoyed finding these go to pieces that are going to get a lot of wear year after year.

What is your favourite spring item of clothes?

Special Thanks to Sara for shooting these images of me!

Today’s blog post is all about male skin care products,  I love products that make you feel fresh and are very quick and easy to use. I was lucky enough to get a Kiehl's box set from my lovely wife Sara. So decide to review a few of the products in the box; Facial Fuel Energising Face Wash,  Facial Fuel Anti-Wrinkle Cream and Creme de Corps Soy Milk & Honey Whipped Body Butter.

The first product I tried was the Facial Fuel Energizing Face Wash;  I love the smell of all of the Kiehl's products they have a great fragrance which isn’t too overwhelming! I used this before I go to bed every night because it’s recommended to be used at night and not in the morning before you wash away all the good nutrients you face gets at night. The foaming element of the wash means that it leaves you feeling refreshed which is a great feeling just before you go to bed!

I then followed the Facial Fuel Anti-Wrinkle Cream, I normally buy face creams that are not greasy or sticky. So this was facial fuel was perfect. You just pump a pea-size amount into your palm and then massage in over your whole face.

Then finally I apply the Creme de Corps Soy Milk & Honey Whipped Body Butter; I’m not a big fan of products that leave your body shiny and also have a way too overpowering smell. This one is really lightweight and though it smells good it isn’t overpowering at all.

Overall I really liked using each of the Kiehl's products, they had a great mix of subtle fragrances, which allowed me to wash my face, shave and moisturise and really enjoy every part of the process.

Have you ever tried any Kiehl's products?  Let me know in the comments below

Last weekend Sara had a free day off from work so we decided to go and have brunch Greasy Spoon in Södermalm, Stockholm. We had to queue for a little while which wasn't great because it started to snow. Once we got in we weaved our way through the abundance of filled tables to our spot and one look at the menu confirmed that anything you had ever dreamed of for brunch you could get right here. The interior is filled with lots of references to the United Kingdom with the wallpaper being a map of London and toilets having pictures of Kate Moss, Ab Fab Duo Patsy and Edina and The Queen. I would definitely recommend ordering Mimosa cocktail or a Bloody Mary, it’s a perfectly drink to accompany your brunch and start your weekend. We ordered different things on the menu; I went for the Full English breakfast which in my opinion was a filling and tasty breakfast/brunch option. Sara had the Full Vegan Breakfast which was one her best vegan breakfast and could have ordered a second.

Overall Greasy Spoon had a great atmosphere and a really varied menu, and in my opinion, the food did really live up to the hype (or the queue), and it’s an exciting place to visit for something different to do on a Saturday morning as breakfast is definitely more fun with friends.

Have any of you ever visited Greasy Spoon? What did you guys think?
