Spring Summer 2017 with Burton Menswear

Craig of That Dapper Chap shares his top 5 looks for SS17 from Burton Menswear

Okay, I get it! You're freezing cold,wearing a bobble hat and woolly socks indoors and you're surrounded by twinkling lights and listening to Cliff Richards Mistletoe and Wine on the radio while you wrap up your Mothers chocolates. Spring seems a long way off right? Take heart, it's just around the corner, and you'll soon be booking that trip to the land of sun, Sangria and sun loungers in no time. 

To help with those winter blues I've picks out five of my top looks from Burton Menswear for Spring Summer 2017. I'm loving the white suit, what's your favourite?

My Top Five Looks

A white suit I hear you gasp! Yeah why not comes my reply. Think summer wedding, think beach party on the Italian Riviera. White will be big for 2017, so get some in your collection.

#FoundIt at debenhams

Craig of That Dapper Chap joins the #FoundIt campaign with Debenhams and shares his picks from from their current range for members of his nearest and dearest.

Now that Halloween and bonfire night are behind us, the Christmas lights have been turned on in city centres all over the UK, and shop window displays offer us a beautiful array of festive fantasies, and all the twinkly lights you could every wish for.  It's time to start think about Christmas.

For me Christmas is all about family, well, family and food! And a big part of that is gift giving.

For us, we have three present giving opportunities, the first is on Christmas Eve when we give one another a new set of pyjamas and something to enjoy in front of the TV while we wait for Santa to do his thing. That may be a hot chocolate set, a box of Christmas chocolates or miniature liqueurs. Then of course we have the big event on Christmas morning but we save a stocking to open on boxing day after the lunchtime washing up has been done.

With so many gifts to buy it's good that brands like Debenhams are doing some of the hard work for us. Each year they have their #FoundIt campaign and offer us a wealth of great gifts from all of our favourite designers and brands.

A monthly fragrance subscription with Scentbird

Craig of That Dapper Chap tests out the monthly subscription service from Scentbird

I'm new to monthly fragrance subscriptions, so when the guys from Scentbird got in touch I thought I'd check it out.

With a huge range of fragrances on offer, Scentbird offer a monthly subscription for just $14.95 (£12). For that you get a full 8ml bottle of whichever fragrance you choose from over 450 that they have on offer.

With fragrances from Clinque, DKNY, Issey Miyake, Hugo Boss, Lacoste and many many more, there's a fragrance to suit everyone. There's no need to buy a full bottle, just switch up your fragrance month to month to keep you smelling fresh and use it as an opportunity to really test out that fragrance that you've wanted to try instead of just having a quick spritz at the fragrance counter. It will also make a great Christmas gift for someone!

Getting started is easy, you can sign up using Facebook or click through and use an email address. Click on 'Subscribe' add your address and bank details and you're ready to choose your first fragrance. 

Scentbird also offer a cologne of the month and this arrived along with my own choice of Tom Ford Vetiver. They arrived in a velvet bag. Inside you'll find your bottle in an easy to use twist top case. 

Both of the fragrances are really nice: the Tom Ford Vetiver is very woody and earthy with an unmissable hint of citrus while the Thirdman Eau Inexplicable is aromatic and spicy.

So, if you like the idea of a monthly fragrance subscription or you're looking for a gift for someone you will, give Scentbird a look.

FINE SCENTBIRD
