5 Bills Challenge with The Hoxton Trend | June 2018

The Hoxton Trend are back with another collaboration, and this time, the team take on the 5 Bills Challenge with a little help from us.

The Hoxton Trend has created another video (which you can watch below or by clicking here) taking on the 5 Bills Challenge. The Hoxton Trend was asked by one of his Instagram followers to help him find an outfit from a range of low-key premium menswear brands that wouldn't break the bank. The catch? The budget is £500 and a full outfit is needed. Want to see what The Hoxton Trend chose? Of course you do. Read on to find out more and don't forget to watch the video below! A lightweight jacket is an essential, especially during the transitional periods and The Hoxton Trend chose a good one from MA.STRUM – the Corvus Windrunner Jacket in Orange. With a funnel neck that unzips to reveal a stowaway hood, this unlined jacket also features four front zip pockets making it as practical as it is stylish. A herringbone tape band to the chest adds a nice touch of contrast to this bright jacket, which will no doubt help you turn heads this season and the next. Crafted from water resistant, breathable and quick-drying fabric, this fully zip through jacket is more than equipped to handle a light (at a push, moderate) shower. The pièce de résistance to this jacket is definitely the detachable Compass ID to the chest band. Also available in Green. For an upgraded version of a graphic tee, the Aldis Crest Front T-Shirt by Aquascutum is your best bet. Coming in a regular fit, this short sleeve tee features a classic crew neckline and is made from luxuriously soft cotton making it an easy choice to wear during the summer. A large Aquascutum crest logo is printed to the chest, adding a premium touch to your look, no matter how casual it may seem. This tee also boasts the label’s iconic club check print lining to the neckline and is finished with a small logo tab to the lower side seam. Wear it with chinos and low-top trainers for a laidback summer look, or make like the Hoxton Trend and pair it with the Emporio Armani J10 Extra Slim Fit Jeans in Denim 0941 or the Hugo Boss 708 Slim Fit Jeans in Dark Blue. A good pair of jeans is a must and if you want to splurge, then we recommend the Emporio Armani J10 Extra Slim Fit Jeans in Denim 0941. Crafted from stretch cotton denim, these extra slim fit jeans will flatter. With a classic five-pocket design, zip and button fastening and the signature metal eagle logo badge to the rear right pocket, these jeans are stylish and versatile, making them a great addition to your collection. Finished with an Emporio Armani logo patch to the rear waistband, these low rise jeans is wearable all year round, making the £126 price tag more than worth it. For a cheaper – yet still as fashionable – alternative to the pair above coming in at £90, we suggest the Hugo Boss 708 Slim Fit Jeans in Dark Blue. Made from comfort stretch denim, these low rise, slim fitting jeans feature a five-pocket design, exposed stitching throughout for added interest as well as a zip and button fastening. Finished with a logo patch to the rear waistband, these jeans are a contemporary option for those off-duty and casual days. With warm weather on the horizon, a pair of white sneakers is a must-have. And if you’re the type who prefers a minimalist aesthetic, then we think you’ll like the Low Top Ghost Matt from Filling Pieces. Crafted from premium matte nubuck leather, these trainers exude a luxurious feel, which will no doubt steal the show as soon as you step outside. A custom Filling Pieces Ghost Sole helps to create a futuristic feel while the stitching details throughout, the heel tab detailing and the embossed branding to the tongue all provide the perfect finishing touches to these stylish sneakers.
