'Tis the Season...

Ah, what joy! Autumn is upon us and close on its heels are the wintry months of November-February.

While many run to the cover of their homes to avoid the snow and sleet of England at this time, I intend to make the most of the cold season by bolstering my wardrobe with a wealth of new styles and looks that will not only keep me warm, but fill me with a warm feeling of sartorial superiority.

But I am far from a believer in keeping fashion tips and tricks to myself: how wonderful a world would it be where everyone had the clothes that portrayed them as they wish to be portrayed? Although such a dream may seem superficial (because it is) and unimportant (though it isn't), appearances count for a great deal in a world where making a good first impression is more important than ever.

Life is rarely a meritocracy. Too often people's talents are overlooked, because they can't make the inner beauty translate into outward confidence.

I'm no shrink; I can't change people's personalities. But I can offer-up the advice I have been given over my years in and around the fashion industry, in the hope that you might be able to take a that which relates to your particular leanings and twist it to your advantage.

Don't be cast by the wayside because your shoes don't match your belt, or because you're tie-knot sits awkwardly in your collar. From top to toe I will spend the coming weeks imparting as much of what I know about presentation as I can.

I hope you enjoy the coming posts, which will start on Wednesday the 29th: if you have any tips of your own, send them to me! The pursuit of sartorial elegance is a long and tricky endeavour, and I too need all the help I can get.

Much love,

R. Jay Nudds
