Restyle Day 11 - Arm Candy

I’m so excited about today’s style prompt! Arm candy can refer to a lot of things (bangles, bracelets, cuffs, clutches etc) but the first thing that came to my mind was a sexy man on your arm! And who better to dress up and pose with me then my very own arm candy Luke! My lovely boyfriend graciously agreed to let me find him an outfit and stand still long enough for some snaps.

This is a great opportunity to point out that Australian Red Cross op shops have some fantastic men’s gear, it’s not just about the ladies! They have lots of great basics, work gear, shirts and suits right through to some super quirky and cool stuff (and endless Hawaiian shirts!).

Luke has a very casual style, favouring comfort over anything else, so when I was shopping for him my number one priority was basic styles with some interest by way of colour or pattern (but nothing too wild!). I always check out the men’s section of an op shop for myself and will often find something great for Luke. Good quality cotton shirts are what I seem to have the most luck finding, but over the years I’ve bought a myriad of sports jerseys, jumpers, jackets and even shoes.

I’m really happy with the outfit I put together for Luke, and most importantly he’s happy with it too! (Phew!)
