Style Steal - David Beckham – Fashionable Frank

STYLE STEAL!

David Beckham is Mens Fashion influencer. In Mens Style terms he is most researched man on the planet! His style is something every man aspires to achieving. Imagine if we could steal it or perhaps “borrow” it. David Beckham is an icon in the Mens Fashion world. He allowed us Men to be, well, fashionable again. Mens Fashion in the 50’s and 60’s was a very fashionable time we only have to look to the style of the last few years to see this. Fedoras, wayfarers, baring our ankles, chinos, tipped polos and printed shirts etc and that’s just Spring/Summer product were fashionable in this period. David Beckham’s look book is full of Mens outfit ideas and style suggestions. I have included some of my favourites. I shall make an appearance in aspiring to Mr Beckham’s fashion and providing my own twist on it.

The reason for my Style Steal segment is to show you the style of the stars can be attained and it doesn’t have to be very expensive either. My outfit is from the High Street and is very affordable!

DAVID BECKHAM LOOKBOOK

Fashionable Frank’s Style

This is the look I shall try to recreate for you. David Beckham is in a full suit and striped t-shirt in this picture. We can’t see his footwear so I shall have to improvise. My guess wearing is white trainers. (Tailoring and sports wear is a massive menswear trend at the moment!) The hair and beard are as always incredible! For my attempt at recreating this look I have gone for a black blazer, a striped t-shirt, black skinny jeans, monochrome trainers and because we are approaching Summer some Wayfarer style sunglasses. Accessories play a key role in my look. They add an element of interest to an outfit I think.

I picked up my blazer and my man bag from Burton Menswear. My striped t-shirt from H&M. The black skinny jeans are Jack Jones. The sunglasses and trainers are from Primark Man (Penneys). Leather cuff and leather bracelets are from River Island and Topman respectively.

Frank’s Fashion Twist

As we have seen David Beckham’s fashion looks great. Its simple yet incredibly stylish! You are also nailing the “effortlessly cool” area here (even though a lot of thought has gone into the outfit!). This is the outfit that keeps on giving. Simply recycle the black (Always Bet on Black!) and add some different striped t-shirt colours and trainers and you’ve got a brand new outfit!

Frank’s Fashion Tip

Roll up the sleeves on your blazer for an effortlessly cool Summer look! Roll up the ends of your jeans to give your outfit a fresh modern twist (fresh air around the ankles is a strangely satisfying experience
