SHOPPING EXPECTATIONS!

This past weekend we went shopping for clothes. . . at a near by shopping center. We were looking for a nice summer jacket and some shirts.
But unfortunately all in vain. Because, we didn´t find anything we really liked. . .

I´m just wondering why all the men stores we went in to, wasn´t more different. Everywhere they had the same kind of stuff, just in various quality and price range. In other words they played it pretty safe. None of the shops really stood out.

That just means, I will have to make my own clothes from now on, like I used to do.

Maybe danish guys are not that fashion conscious after all. Do you agree? Feel free to comment and share your thoughts below.

THE GREAT BRITISH SEWING BEE

The judges, Savile Row tailor Patrick Grant and WI teacher May Martin

Great British Sewing Bee is a new interesting reality series on BBC2, where amateur sewers take on challenges as they compete to be named Britain´s best home sewer.
The first four-part series saw eight sewing hopefuls compete in various challenges from hand stitching to customisation.

Luckily the series turned out to be a succes, so a follow-up of 6 new episodes is to be launched next year.

In case you haven´t noticed! - DIY, short for Do It Yourself or homemade as some may call it, is getting more and more popular these days.
Maybe because of the economical crises. . .or just because people are tired of buying off the rack and want to stand out. But of course there is also a great satisfaction in creating something yourself.

Would you like to learn how to sew your own clothes, I offer individual classes. Read more about it under Services.
