Style Icon – Tom Cruise
Tom Cruise – a compelling movie star of the 1980s having played iconic parts in iconic movies such as Top Gun, Cocktail, Rain Man, Mission Impossible and many others. I think we may all agree that during his prime, Tom Cruise was very attractive… In 1990, 1991 and 1997 People magazine rated Cruise among the 50 most beautiful people in the world, and in 1995 Empire magazine ranked him among the 100 sexiest stars in film history. Also a trend setter, Tom Cruise is renowned for ... Read More »
Pre-Season Summer Jackets
The transition of the autumn/winter to spring/summer season is in progression in the world of fashion, and here at Mainline Menswear this changeover period isn’t just about the change in styles, trends and colours, there is also a mountain of paper work to file away – I have paper cuts all over my hands from organising sheets upon sheets, with my desk covered in dots of paper from puncturing holes – this being a routine end-of-season task in the data entry office. I compare this tedious ... Read More »
Staff Picks – Photographer Amie Prescott
Bright flashing lights through my office window and ‘Ain’t No Mountain High Enough’ by Diana Ross blasting outside my door this morning, I knew our happy snapper photographer Amie was absolutely absorbed in her work. Aware of the stock, as it had already entered my room, I was curious which of these designer garments were making Amie so chirpy. Searching through her rail of clothing, stacks of shoe boxes and piles of accessories that had just recently been modelled in the studio and airbrushed on the ... Read More »

How to Dress as the Christmas Day Host
It is like a tradition for me to dress in my best on Christmas day, whether I buy the outfit beforehand or wear something given as a present. I wear brand new clothes even though I simply cook, eat or lounge around playing games for most of the ‘big day’, but I can’t beat the habit. This year is the first year my boyfriend and I are hosting on Christmas day, and our roles have been reversed… You would think I would be nagging him to ... Read More »
Unite a Casual Outfit with a Blazer
The X Factor on Sunday night was a shock for many I’m sure – even I was a tad gutted to see the boy band Union J leave the competition (not a huge X Factor fan), but maybe for different reasons… When I do make time to sit down and watch the X Factor my attention is usually stolen by the styling of the contestants rather than their talent, especially now there’s limited talent left **pulling a slanted dash guilty smiley**, with the exception of James ...

What ‘She’ Wants You to Wear To Bed
Ralph Lauren calls it ‘sleepwear’, Emporio Armani calls it ‘underwear’ and Hugo Boss calls it ‘nightwear’. I call them ‘jim jams’ – the things your mother dressed you in for bed when you were a kid. I bet there are many women out there that are trying to dress their men in them today too!! I know I am! And so I should be when he turns our thermostat dial up to the max and wastes valuable spending money on gas to keep the central heating ... Read More »
