So Debenham's are running a fab competition, "#lovedenim", in which the prize is a fantastic £500 worth of vouchers! Bloggers were asked to create two mood boards featuring their top denim menswear looks. The first showcasing a casual outfit idea for going to a gig, and the second your ideal smart dinner date outfit for a man
Lee Dark Washed Luke Slim Tapered Leg Jeans,
Jasper Conran Navy Mottled Striped T-Shirt,
KG by Kurt Geiger Black 'Kerland' brogue ankle boots,
Fred Perry Navy Tipped Trim bomber Jacket,
Fred Perry Navy Canvas Buckle Bag
[All available from Debenhams]
My casual outfit focuses on dark navy's and worn-grey tones. The bomber jacket is a silhoutte which just keeps coming back season after season, and the "sports luxe" trend is a personal favourite of mine for menswear. The jeans are slim fit, and the T-shirt fairly tight fitting, so the bomber jacket adds an interesting silhouette to the outfit and works as a feature piece.
Jeff Banks Designer Wine Straight Leg Jeans,
Rocha John Rocha Brown Wool Blend Tweed Blazer,
Ben Sherman Plain White Oxford Shirt,
Red Herring Brown Striped Heeled Brogues,
Guess Men's grey chronograph dial with bracelet watch

For the more formal outfit, I decided that the denim should play a feature part, and these wine coloured Jeff Banks jeans really help to make a formal outfit still be young and on-trend. The tweed jacket and simple white shirt add sophistication, creating the perfect formal outfit for an aspiring trend setter.
Let me know in the comments below what you think of my looks, and wish me luck for the competition!
