The Graduate

Wearing UCLan gown, Uniqlo oxford shirt, vintage tie, Samuel Windsor trousers,
 Paul Smith socks, YMC saddle shoes.

I did it, I am know officially a BA (Honors) Graduate of University of Central Lancashire. What a day too, there was a mixture of nerves, excitement and worry (that I may fall off the stages or my hat would fall off). I had these trousers tailored by my main man, he made the legs slimmers, took in the seat and shortened them quite a bit. He called them an "Elvis fit", just the way I wanted them.

The last 4 years has been some of the best in my life and I have met tones of amazing people, who I hope to keep in contact with. But now, no more messing, I'm not a student anymore. I need a job, big time!

Here's to the future and the next chapter in my life!

    My younger brother graduated last week, I tried to give him some style advice by adding little pop of colour in his outfit, that little git declined my offer :S
