Hi everyone and welcome back to another post. Unfortunately I have my exams coming up in a few weeks so blog posts will be becoming less frequent (as is the case with this one). However I will try my best to get posts out regardless!

The shoot took place at The Manchester Library which is great minimalist location with modern takes on more traditional architecture which was great! Exploring the city opens up amazing new spots to shoot at which I enjoy every time I go out to the city (almost every weekend haha)

The outfit I went for on the day once again had some colour to it! On top we have an olive longline tee from Asos (the usual), then I had on a new camo hoodie from Topman. id been tracking a camo over piece for a while and this hoodie was exactly what i was looking for, I wanted a hoodie with no draw strings and to have the overlapped from section of the hood (You'll understand when you see the pictures haha) and this fit the agenda perfectly, as well as being very affordable!. Another piece id been hunting for ages but never actually pulled the trigger on was a denim jacket. I found this one again in Topman for a reasonable price, BUT, I didn't want to keep it plain and 'ordinary' so the second I got home I took scissors to it (very hastily) and it turned out great! 

On the bottom half I decided to use some different jeans for a change opposed to my biker jeans you've been seeing for the past I don't know how many posts and I came across some brand new MDV (very) distressed jeans in my wardrobe. So well.. why not try them with this outfit! The combination of distressing on top of the outfit works simultaneously well with the bottom half. Although the jeans do have lots of small horizontal rips going across the front of the jeans they still work very well instead of say a traditional knee rip. Finally two standard pieces to finish off the look, my trusty Supreme hat and Rick Owens sneakers which are still destroying my feet...If you have any insole recommendations please let me know as I can't find any that fit the odd shape of the shoes sole!

Thank you for dropping by on this one, it meant a lot to me did this shoot as i finally got to do a proper non-rushed shoot with John as well as meet his incredibly talented photographer Farhan. So give them a follow on Instagram (link down bellow) and myself if you haven't already!

Once again thanks for the support and following, see you again soon.

Greg.

Hi welcome back to another post! I know I only posted yesterday but due to not uploading in a while I thought Id try and make up for it. Upload is on time as promised haha. So trying to shoot todays outfit was more difficult than I anticipated, to start off with I set off with my photographer Charlotte to get something to eat before the shoot only to find that Id forgotten my SD card for my camera when we reached the shooting spot! So I insisted we returned to get it and come back and complete the shoot, I wasn't going to disappoint you by leaving it to another day. So this blog post has been done as speedily as possible to publish on time! Now to the outfit Ive previously used this outfit in a shoot and absolutely love it, the strange sort of off white, creamy beige kind of look it gives off is strange but appealing in my opinion. I paired it with some distressed blue denims for a change instead of black and with my beloved CDG x Converse sneakers which I don't wear as much as I should If im honest. Finally to give the outfit some diversity I used the striped t-shirt with stepped hem (that really is very stepped!) from Asos. I think the outfit really works and is something different. Tell me what you think. C'ya.

Hi guys, hows your weekend going? This outfit was a bit of a rustic, layering, distressed combo I threw together. I thought It worked well the mixes of black, grey and green on the similarly distressed background of the stone wall. It was getting dark and I had no battery so these shots were really quickly done but I think they turned out really well even with the lower lighting. I just got these Adidas Superstars in this amazing grey/khaki colour way when I was on holiday in Portugal. I really wanted the sand colour way but found these and decided I wanted them straight away haha, even after they released a while ago and have sold out everywhere. Thanks for looking, thoughts?

Greg.

Outfit Of The Day - Double Olive


Photography: Charlotte Traverse

Khaki Flight Jacket - Maniére De Voir / £56
Super Long Line T-shirt - Asos / £14
Khaki Biker Denim - Maniére De Voir / £43
Metal Plaque Snake Embossed Cap - Maniére De Voir / £20
Superstar Jeremy Scott Edition Sneakers - Adidas / £145
-----------------------------------

Me and my friend Charlotte ventured into this abandoned mill near where we live in Delph to get these shots of my outfit. The visuals of olive and white work together quite well in my opinion. It was quite a warm day today but the flight jacket by Maniére De Voir is a good item to keep you cool but add some real depth to your outfit, paired with the khaki denim it really pops on the white. What do you think? - Have a good remainder of your weekend. 

Greg.
