My Favourite Items of the House: Bathroom

A short post today because there isn’t really much, if any, furniture in the bathroom but I do like this white cabinet to keep your bits in. That is all.

My Favourite Items of the House: Den

The den is a spare downstairs room that is used for relaxing. Apparently if it has one chair and more than three books its officially known as a library*, but in this post I’ll stick to calling it the den. The den is where you relax, chill out and do what you like doing. It may have a computer for working, a video game console, books and hopefully a big squishy bean bag chair to chill out on. Since I like video games I’m going to need somewhere to store my consoles and games so that’s why the most important item in the den is a decent entertainment unit.

This unit has plenty of room for the TV, consoles, controllers, games and accessories and still looks like a clasy item of furniture. Might try to find one with sliding doors on though to keep things dust-free.

*may not be totally true.

My Favourite Items of the House: Kitchen

The kitchen contains the important items for cooking and food storage such as the oven and fridge but I don’t really class these as items of furniture per-se. Instead I’m going to go for the item that some people may have in their kitchen and others might have a whole separate room for it; the dining table.

My Favourite Items of the House: Living Room

The living room is where I spend a lot of time. Whether it’s chilling out on my own, watching TV whilst enjoying a take away pizza or socialising with friends its a room that gets a lot of time spent in it.

Because of this it needs to be comfy at all times no matter what I’m doing and that’s why my favourite item in the living room is a big comfy sofa.

My Favourite Items of the House: Room by Room

Welcome to the start of my new blog post series going around the house and taking a look into each room and picking my favourite item of furniture within. Since you’re all here because of our shared passion for furniture I thought I’d go room by room and pick one item in each. It may be something I’ve got, something I am getting (such as my stylish sliding wardrobes in both the master and guest bedrooms) or a funny item that I wish I could have.

Top 10 Wardrobe Essentials for Men

Belt

A belt does that all important job of helping to keep your trousers up but is also a fancy fashion accessory. Go for black or brown depending on your preference.

Jeans

A solid colour pair of jeans are a staple and can be worn on a variety of occasions.

Shoes

A pair of smart black shoes can be worn with your suit of jeans depending on what style you’re going for.

Trainers

Casual trainers and jeans is a cool look and if you get the right pair they can even pass as smart in a preppy kinda way.

Suit

All men should own at least one suit for job or social occasions. Grey is suave but a classic black suit is also fine.

Plain T-shirts

A range of plain coloured t-shirts give you many style options depending on how you’re feeling, where you’re going or what you’re doing.

Underwear

Make sure you’ve got enough pairs to last till you next do the washing.

Socks

As with underwear, ensure you have enough to last the week and go for simple socks such as black, navy and grey.

 Watch

A nice watch can really set an outfit off, especially when worn with a shirt. A statement watch is great for night’s out but may not be so good for day to day wear so think carefully on your choice.

White Shirt

A simple white button up shirt is a cool, relaxed look when worn with jeans and can be dressed up with your suit jacket.

So how many of these items have you got behind your wardrobe doors guys?
