Because there is
more to life than clothes apparently...
Upon visiting Ted Bakers salon recently
near Farringdon I was struck by four thoughts – (Yes this might be a new
record)
1.
Wow
this place looks amazing
2.
It is
seriously hot and today
3.
Nice
smelling man adds at least ten attractiveness points.
4.
Where
is the bathroom?
Entering the Ted Baker luxury lounge
was a bit like stepping into another world. A world of luxury, Turkish spa with
a modern twist feeling welcoming and yet incredibly indulgent. The kind of
place you could happily while away an afternoon
The experience is the perfect gift for
a modern man who cares about his appearance. Ted baker combines the traditional
Turkish bath spa feeling with a more contemporary feel. Stop by for a shave,
maybe you’ll be tempted to fix a bad hair day or get a pedicure – yes I said
it. Pedicures for men which are proving surprisingly popular.
After seeing more than one attendee of
the launch rather sheepishly be shuffled into a chair for a quick trim and
emerge a fully shampooed cleansed and polished example of how sexy the right
grooming can make a man well honestly can you afford not to. Still not
convinced?
Super important reasons to embrace
metro-sexuality
·
Its rude its crude but frankly whatever
your orientation you’ll have far more chance of getting laid if you
look and smell good = fact
·
Pampering yourself is good for you.
Stressed out and beginning to resemble a caveman. Relax kick back and feel a
whole new man
·
You can go to the pub with your oh so
manly friend and mock their wimpishness in not having their hair and nails
done. It takes a real man to get a pedi dahling!
·
Because it’s fun – come on be honest
the big chair the old school shave thing is fun!
·
Metrosexual men drink cosmopolitans.
And to you cave boys out there Cosmos are delicious stop missing out
·
Because we all have bad hair days but
metrosexuals carrying a comb can make the best out of one
However while all this is good I do
need to add a relatively important proviso - hands off my mascara boys. There
are limits...
Added extra
Ted Baker has also produced a home care
range. So if you feel you might lose man points sitting in a chair being
pampered why not buy the products lock the door and lie that you are naturally
blessed with great skin and a wonderfully musky natural scent! Packaged in the
trademark contemporary luxury feel that encapsulates the brand there's a wide
variety to choose from, face washes, moisturisers, hair care products etc. The
lovely people at ted baker appear to have declared war in razor rashes and bad
stumble with a range of products to soothe skin and beat in grown hairs
So come on boys no excuse for
looking good this season. Get your products or make a booking here
The people
It was super crowded in the room with
the launch event attended by most of the editors of the major papers. It was
also a super hot day so suffice to say the freshening up and nice smells in the
lounge were appreciated.
Food and Drinks
There were various cocktails including some kind of lychee martini which might
have been the nicest thing I have ever tasted. |Unfortunately the combination
of the hot weather and the crowd meant I maybe had one too many. They were also
serving cheese puff snacks which were yummy though I don’t want to even think
how calorific they must have been.Not taking advantage of the complimentary car that was offered. Yes its swelteringly hot weather yeas I will voluntarily walk. Oh and yes I will walk in crippling high heels.
Blonde moment
Not taking advantage of the complimentary car that was offered. Yes its
swelteringly hot weather yes I will voluntarily walk in crippling high heels -Stupid stupid girl!
Spilling one of the
cocktails on a pristine area could have proven a little on the embarrassing
side. Luckily for me no one saw so I got away with it. Less luckily I have
apparently just broadcast it – there is a reason I call this section the blonde
moment!. Remind me to never become a spy
