“Discover a Unique Watch collection that reflects the ability to adapt to your busy lifestyle and to be as versatile as you need your accessories to be”
Lately, this Summer I was lucky enough to preview the new watch collections by Nordgreen Copenhagen which I am delighted to keep discovering new brands on the market for fine watches and accessories. You will really appreciate the simplicity of modern minimalist Danish design and its origins of Scandinavian lifestyle.
The brand kindly offered to reach out to me to review one of their watches as I’ve been a great fan of Nordgreen Copenhagen for a while now and always on the lookout for the perfect watch to compliment my daily attire. I decided to choose the Native dark navy nylon and rose gold mesh stainless steel straps to style my weekend off-duty look and really pleased with it that I made the right choice. It even comes with a beautifully branded tote bag that’s made of eco friendly materials you get complimentary with every order.
“With a NORDIC MINDSET on design, contemplation comes first. I look for MEANING before I design anything. Then I turn to NATURE for INSPIRATION, searching for the most harmonious expression. I carefully design every component individually to be part of the whole and to respect the materials and function. That’s how I try to reveal the essence of the watch. I prefer to leave a SUBTLE SIGNATURE on the products I design and invite the person to live with it, as an open-ended story.”
Nordgreen’s Chief Designer Jakob Wagner, 2020
With this in mind, did you know that you can choose your case colour and dial along with a strap style to suit your preference of the ideal watch.
Here’s an interesting fact for you. I discovered Denmark is a global leader in green technology advancements, pioneering change and inspiring nations across the world to follow pursuit in favor of reducing environmental carbon footprint. For Nordgreen it’s not only about their amazing watches but sustainable initiatives to saving the planet. You can find out more about the Brands Giving Back Program where you can send them your old used watch which they service and repair it to sell on and find a new owner. You can count on sustainable luxury whereby Nordgreen partners with Danish manufactures abroad to ensure overseas production adhere to the highest levels and Danish labour practices for corporate social responsibility.
“It’s the comfortable and sleek, masculine and feminine. It’s a balance of both”

Nordgreen Native Watches come in 3 different sizes to that it fits all types of wrist. Here you can see I’m wearing the 35mm with Dark Navy Nylon Strap. To view all sizes in stock please check out the Nordgreen websites homepage. Trying on the Native Men’s Watches it really redefines classic timepieces where the contemporary sleek design and subtle details deliver timeless watches that will never go out of style.
For me the Nordgreen Native is the perfect balance between striking elegance and fine detailing with Japanese time movement. These watches are ideal for a style statement that stands out from the rest and fits into your everyday lifestyle.

Make the Native Watch your own when you can select between three dial colours black or blue and plain white, including silver, gunmetal and rose gold casing.

A GENTLEMEN’S GUIDE TO POLO SEASON SPORTING ATTIRE: STYLE DRESS CODES 101
With the all important summer social events and invitations coming in all at once dress codes are crucial to make the right impression with the exception of Polo In The Park for a fun day divot stomping in between chukkas. Dressing to impress is a must where not only the elite polo players take centre stage but so does style.
Here’s my Essential Guide on Menswear Polo Style how best to incorporate vibrant pastel colours into your summer wardrobe during the English Sporting Social Calendar.
The polo is always fun day out people watching from the Celebrities to the Spectators to who’s wearing what this year and where to be scene at the After Parties such as the Mahiki Enclosure. From today’s event here are my observations of the movers and shakers of the elite polo crowd veterans take on style and what they wore.
It’s a known fact guys hate shopping, but in fact it’s quite the opposite when it comes to summer social event’s, even the debonair man needs to look his best. From experience I learn what suits best and give my recommendations for outfits and how to wear them by including these in your daily style edit.
“The Ralph Lauren Seersucker Blazer the Ultimate Classic Staple for Summer”
Why not take an optimistic approach to colour and pairing your outfit with a bold statement set of bright trousers and the contrast of colours from red, green and yellow which are available to purchase from the high street to designer labels. These are worth investing in especially if you’re looking at brightening up that essential summer wardrobe so you’ll be sure to blend right in with the Chelsea locals alike.
Fitted shirt styles from Ralph Lauren are always great because they come in a variety of classic styles in the white button down collared shirt to pastel shades and bold stripes in blue. Then finish off the look with a neutral seer sucker blazer to even out the contrast of shades. A Seer Sucker blazer is unlined, so designed to keep you cool during the hot summer months at event occasions.

STYLE TIP: Seersucker blazer is unlined, so designed to keep you cool during the hot summer months.
With the English social calendar upon us we focus our attention towards stylish sporting events from the Varsity Polo, Polo in the Park to the Gold Cup at Cowdray.
For this look at Polo In The Park, I decided to keep it neutral but relaxed and I felt I had to express a style identity of my own. With summer you can’t go wrong and what better way to do this is to keep it neutral with a classic Ralph Lauren Seersucker Blazer but still include a splash of colour as you find the contrast helps bring out the best of both shades.

Even by adding the slightest finishing touches to a look such as a colour coordinated pocket square to tailored jackets can overall emphasize the best features of the whole outfit’s attire.
Looking for the perfect summer shoes can depend on the softness, texture and comfort to make it easier to walk on the lawn and inside the marquee enclosures. A slip on suede loafer in tan or dark brown rather than leather shoes helps the foot breathe more freely during the spring summer season.
Finally, your accessories choice can either create a luxury feel of sophistication or faux pas which is all down to preferential discerning taste. You can’t go wrong with skinny belts either in brown is minimal. Less is more. One of my personal favourites is a preppy style collegiate belt in dark navy with diagonal red stripes which adds a bit of character.
Next up, let’s think about that final touch of elegance such as Accessories and the best luxury Watches on the market to consider would be ‘The Chronograph’ Wrist Watches for Men. So far these are my favourite picks and there are quite a few Brands out there I’m crushing over this season to match my Sporting Attire. Whatever takes your fancy, so take your pick from these on my wish list to covet now.
That’s it, you’re now ready to be fully kitted out for a Polo Match so let’s bring on the rest of summer it’s not over yet!
