Robbing The Wardrobe To Narnia (by Harry J Bartlett) The weather has been pretty naff recently which has only fuelled the tediousness of Lockdown 3.0 so I thrived at the chance to enjoy a snow day and a long walk. Honestly, it was needed today and I think it has helped motivate me to blitz on with some more home projects, decorating, and life admin again. Fingers crossed it doesn’t become treacherous ice too soon.

Simplicity (by Harry J Bartlett) Sometimes you need a day where simplicity takes to the stage. This is something I wear to work, a nice bit of office smart-casual attire.

"We'll Meet Again" (by Harry J Bartlett) The third look from my VE Day 75th Anniversary tribute. I based this look on the classic wartime dad aesthetic. I wanted to showcase the 1940's menswear styling. I'm a big fan of suits and I love the cut of a vintage suit. http://thenormcanconform.com/ve-day-75th-anniversary-well-meet-again/

Hello, Sailor (by Harry J Bartlett) This was another look from my VE Day tribute. I've had these Royal Navy uniform trousers for quite some time now and I'm craving lockdown to be over so I can wear them clubbing once again. Details on my other looks are featured in this article: http://thenormcanconform.com/ve-day-75th-anniversary-well-meet-again/

Rosie The Riveter / VE Day 75th Anniversary (by Harry J Bartlett) I thought I'd do my best to celebrate VE Day's 75th anniversary at home by creating themed outfits inspired by wartime attire. This was one of three and as you can tell, it was inspired by the legendary Rosie the Riveter propaganda posters. Stay safe, stay sane and "We'll Meet Again"!

"You cooking with me you cooking with the best" (by Harry J Bartlett) Lockdown has been tough for us all – especially workwise. Thankfully I've still been receiving some freelance food photography work to shoot at home. Flour has been really hard to come by in the UK and a lot of people are wanting it – you could say it's become the new 'White Gold'. Anyway, a client asked me to do some shots of flour... I may have gone a little off-script with the brief and turned myself into Scarface. I think they liked it! 😂 Read my blog post here to see the actual submitted images and find out about my lockdown life: http://thenormcanconform.com/you-baking-with-me-you-baking-with-the-best-flour-is-the-new-white-gold/

Another Drink, Milady? (by Harry J Bartlett) I hope everybody is having a great start to the New Year. 2019 was a bit naff for myself but I'm hoping to get back on track in 2020. I aim to post more looks and share more blog posts – I need to get inspired again. Here's to you all and let's kick off the Roaring Twenties in style! I thought I'd throw on my New Romantic inspired suit from the Topman Design collection and what better location to wear it than my friend's incredible Art Deco mansion. Follow her on Instagram @interiorcurve to see her incredible renovations.

Interior Exploration (by Harry J Bartlett) Another photograph from the time I went and explored @interiorcurve's stunning 1930's art deco home. Honestly, this place is stunning and I recommend checking out her Instagram to see the magic for yourselves.

A Suit Is Just A Formality (by Harry J Bartlett) I had the absolute pleasure of checking out my friend Siobhan's gorgeous 1930's Art Deco home that she moved into 6 weeks ago. She asked me to style her up for a feature in the Metro's interior section and (of course) I brought a few outfits of my own to take full advantage of her gorgeous backdrop. I thoroughly recommend you check out her Instagram – @interiorcurve to see just how beautiful and incredible her home truly is.

Mulling Around (by Harry J Bartlett) A very casual outfit that's become a staple in my day-to-day life. I've bought a few pairs of these Vivienne Westwood dungarees now in different patterns and colours and they're perfect for both dressed-up and casual occasions.

Peaky Blinder (by Harry J Bartlett) A little throwback to the time I was featured on GQ Australia's Instagram while I was frolicking around town for London Fashion Week Men's.

All Work & No Play (by Harry J Bartlett) Sometimes you have to just throw on your best utility wear and get stuck into an honest day's work.

Yearbook (by Harry J Bartlett) This little throwback was a real treat. I was the cover star of Yearbook magazine (shot by Rhian Israel). Yearbook was a bi-annual magazine dedicated to showcasing the best of students work at Falmouth University. Each issue aims to include the work of current students and those that have graduated and gone on to do amazing things. The team also won an award for Best Magazine Concept. I would definitely have a gander and see what some of Cornwall’s up and coming creatives are doing and please have a read of my quick interview on page 8-9.

Camp (by Harry J Bartlett) The Met Gala was a bit of disappointment this year wasn't it? Sure, a lot of people had some interesting looks but most people just turned up in black suits and dresses. Camp is about expression and fun. Also, I bought this beautiful snuggler seat and wanted to show it off. Have a gander at my blog post: thenormcanconform.com/adventures-of-a-first-time-buyer-bonjour-my-velvet-beauty-sofa-so-good/

There's No Better Drape Than A Cape (by Harry J Bartlett) Wearing head to toe Vivienne Westwood on Day 1 of London Fashion Week Men's AW19

Getting excited for #LeedsPride this weekend 🏳️‍🌈 It’s going to be a homosexual extravaganza! #throwbackthursday #tbt #dragqueens #throwback #leeds #pride #gaypride @viaductshowbar (at Viaduct Showbar Leeds)

Office Wear – No, I'm Serious (by Harry J Bartlett) This isn't a joke, this is what I genuinely wear to the office most days. I'm quite recognisable in the building I must say, but hey, it's a conversation starter at the water cooler if nothing else.
