Football & Fashion

With so many football shockers this month…..Sir Alex and David Beckham retiring, Wigan winning the FA Cup, then being relegated a mere two days later , got me thinking about the Life and Style of the modern day footballer. Let’s see if money can really buy you style! After all footballers are not usually known for sartorial elegance and stirring clothing choices, but every now and then we come across a baller who truly kicks it in the style stakes. For example

1. David Beckham: When you think of style and football, nine times out of ten you’re going to think David Beckham. One of the most famous footballers in the world, Becks is continuously setting trends. Whether he’s doing dressed down casual, experimenting with headgear, or rocking a suit, we think it doesn’t really get much better than Becks.  The man can wear the hell out of pretty much anything, but we think he looks his best relaxed and effortlessly styled. A modern family man, Beckham leads the way in current gentleman’s fashion.

2. Cristiano Ronaldo: Over the last decade, Cristiano Ronaldo has emerged as football’s new internationally acclaimed superstar. The Portuguese player has followed in the footsteps of Beckham by becoming the new model of Armani underwear and continuously pushing the boundaries of contemporary male fashion. We think Ronaldo looks best when he is wearing his designer suits: immaculate and dapper.

3. Thierry Henry : The King of Casual. What looks great on Thierry would look questionable  on anyone else, and that’s part of his charm. We love his skater boy style, but he can also dress it up when it counts. Not one to stop caring with just his clothes, Henry’s detail to suave or trendy accessories is dually noted. His red kicks to match his tee– all shows that this man is a natural street-style gentleman.

Best dressed Male at TV Bafta's

Last night on our screens saw television's leading men turn out on London's South Bank, for the TV Bafta awards, 2013. Take a look at our top five best-dressed men on the red carpet…

In first place comes : Jamie Redknapp, in this amazingly fitted  Thom Sweeney three-piece tux, nothing to say other than perfection!

In second place reluctantly to say, because I’m not a fan of his, on Made in Chelsea. But Spencer Matthews, actually has a knack for style, and this blue sheen lapelled tux, is a winner in the evening wear realms.

In third place comes: Our host for the night, Graham Norton! Love the subtle pattern on his jacket.

In fourth place was the dashing Matt Johnson, he looks effortlessly styled in this suit, and nice to see that not everyone was wearing a bow tie.

Finally but by no means least was Dermot O’Leary. He was sporting a well-cut Rake Lounge suit, Emmett shirt, Spencer Hart bow tie and Mr Hare shoes- we love Mr Hare shoes!
