Wearing - New Balance 420s, Levi's chambray shirt, H&M pleated trousers, Uniqlo orange socks
This week started of as a none event but now it's turned into a jam packed one, I'm going to be rushing around everywhere doing odds & sods. I'm working quite a bit and I'll also be helping Hollie put up her exhibition space later in the week. The first stop today was the mundane task of sorting out a new dentist and canning off the old private one, I'm bound to save some money that way. Above is what I wore on my travels.
I've been wearing New Balance for the past few years, from day to day wear and also at the gym, they're hands down the comfiest brand of trainers I have come across. Cushioned personified. I picked up these 420s in Royal Blue/Grey/White from Ebay a couple of months ago at a steal. Although they aren't the most versatile trainer I've been mostly wearing them with these semi-smart pleated navy slacks.
In other news, I'll be down in London on 11th June for a day, Hollie's on business so I said I'll travel there and back with her. So I"ll be free, if anyone fancies meeting up for a bit.
I want to go to London on June 11th. Gah!
ReplyDeleteI'm a fan of New Balance too. I like the blue!
New Balance TEam rule, haha! ;) They are great too, I saw green one in shop I bought mine 410. Give me maybe four months and they'll be mine.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a find! I purchased these years ago as well, but then couldn't find them anywhere in stores or online afterwards. They look great on you with your socks and slacks.
ReplyDeleteI love New Balance - in fact I love most trainers, just because they are so comfy. Will you be in the East London area? Maybe we can team up for a MyFavouritePlace post???
ReplyDeleteEven though I`m completely anti trainers - I quite like these. My favorite color as well!
ReplyDeleteI love how buckets and spades is a similar name, as lipstick and balloons) i think it`s sweet.

Loved the color! Those are of the most comfortable things I've worn - too bad I've got sick of them. Maybe I should buy a new pair.
ReplyDeleteIt's the perfect shade of blue!
ReplyDeleteHi Mat,
ReplyDeleteJust scrolling through your blog and I have to say I love the way you display your items! Really simple and effective and the photos are great. I think we are similar in photographing the details and getting the whole story through parts of the place/garment.
Yey for photography and nice things! :D

Ooh, I really like those (especially with the orange socks). New Balances don't often disappoint. They look good with any outfit too!
ReplyDeletethey look so retro and I love them against your orange socks! also, it reminds me of how badly i want a pair of adidas gazelles!!
ReplyDeletegood steal! i like that you can mix it with a smart outfit and not look too sporty. i should buy one for myself i think.

yes NB yes NB yes yes yes!
ReplyDeleteSure my lecturuer has these trainers, they're pretty neat! Nothing better than a nice comfortable pair of shoes.
ReplyDeleteHave a good time in London later next month!
Also yes the bottom pair are mens shoes! Can't remember their names though... but the blue soles are my favourites.
ReplyDeleteThat blue is beautiful! The accenting orange socks are the perfect touch as well. I've been wanting to pick a pair up of the 420's but to me they seem a bit un comfortable. I think i'll stick with my 574's.
ReplyDeleteReally liking the flood-orange sock combo.
