The Smile Brilliant Tooth Whitening Kit

Craig of That Dapper Chap tries out the Smile Brilliant teeth whitening kit, shows us what's in the kit and how to use it for the best results

Your smile matters! 

Everywhere we turn were presented with images of people with beautifully healthy white teeth. It's a rare sight these days to see a celeb, TV personality or sports star without a set of gleaming nashers. It's a reflection of who we are and how we live our lives, it shows that we care about our appearance and our oral hygiene.

Confession: I am a coffee addict, a curry lover and I'm also an ex-smoker, as a result my teeth were no longer as white as they could be. I'm not overly self conscious about my smile and I have had some corrective dental work previously to better my smile. I've also tried a whitening kit before which had very limited results so when the Smile Brilliant kit landed on my door mat I did question how effective it would be. The only way to get really white teeth is at an orthodontist right? Wrong! You see, this kit contains the same products that they use, but it comes without the high price tag! You do it yourself, in your own time and get the results you want.

The 'Ginsberg' tartan suit from Noose & Monkey

We've all come to love Noose & Monkey for their tailoring and the less usual pattern, colour and textures that they offer. You may have seen my previous post where I showed off items from the latest range.

As a guy who likes to step outside of the standard look a suit can offer, Noose & Monkey really appeal to me. So when I had an opportunity to grab the blue and green 'Ginsberg' suit, of course I leaped at it.

Styling the Palissy Briefcase From Oppermann London

Craig of That Dapper Chap introduces luxury leather brand Oppermann London and styles the Palissy briefcase.

Inspired directly by Swedish minimalism and city style, which combines simplicity with functionality and great design, Oppermann London are a young brand with a beautiful range of luxury bags, travel goods and accessories, and I was lucky enough to meet up with them at London Fashion week Mens, just a few short weeks ago.

The guys at Oppermann London wanted top quality materials for their range, and their search took them deep into the Swedish forests where they happened upon Tärnsjö Garveri, a tannery with a long history of manufacture dating back to 1873. They chose their favourite leather and now create and offer a stunning collection of 5 bags, 4 wallets and 4 phone cases in a variety of different colours.

The Portraits Collection

In my last post about the Portraits collection from Penhaligon's of London I covered the unveiling of the collection and introduced you to the various members of this mysterious Victorian family, their characters and their secrets.

Time has passed since then and I now have the pleasure of introducing two new members of the family, although Lady Blanche may disagree that either of these characters bring her any pleasure whatsoever, and I am sure she is plotting their demise as I type!

Clandestine Clara is unveiled at Lord George's mistress and Roaring Radcliff as their illegitimate son!

My London Fashion Week Mens: Day 3

Craig of That Dapper Chap takes us around the shows and presentation of his final day at this seasons London Fashion Week Men's

So day three dawned. You can find my breakdown of day one HERE and day two HERE.

With tube strikes imminent, lines closed and lines delayed it was a nightmare getting into central London today. I appreciate that these things happen, but did they not know that we had shows to get to!

As a result we unfortunately missed the Berthold show and it was then a toss up between getting to the Marharishi catwalk show and legging it to Kent & Curwen at the OXO Tower, potentially missing it, or just making our way leisurely to to the OXO Tower and stopping for a coffee and a pastry for breakfast in readiness for the show.

Coffee, an apricot pastry and Kent & Curwen won hands down, I wasn't going to miss it for the world!
