#oxfords not brogues

As promised in my last post, I proudly present to you... Kingsman Tailors from the movies Kingsman: The Secret Service, Kingsman: The Golden Circle, and The King's Man. I'm a huge fan of the movies, and wanted to recreate this fantastic lot for The Sims 4. It's set as a retail lot, but it could easily be turned into an elaborate home for your Secret Agent sims. The adjoining "shops" are just shells, as I didn't want to create any lag. I've attempted to make the interior as accurate as possible, without overloading with too much clutter, but (whilst not 100% accurate) I have attempted to add the most important features, including the secret sliding door in the fitting room, the weapons store, the upstairs meeting room, and the iconic front window display with Eggsy's Orange Velvet Tux Jacket. This lot also includes a couple of pieces of my VERY OWN CC!! Two portraits- one of Queen Elizabeth II, and one of Orlando Oxford, from the film 'The Kings Man' and I also am extremely proud of myself for recoloring the snowy escape sliding door to use as the secret fitting room door. It's not perfect, but I think it's pretty good for my first attempt at a door recolor!! Let me know what you think and if you have any issues with gameplay or routing! I hope you love this lot as much as I loved making it!!

Exploring the Different Types of Men's Leather Shoes

Leather shoes have been a staple in men's fashion for centuries, and with good reason. Not only are they durable and long-lasting, but they also add a touch of elegance and sophistication to any outfit. However, with so many different types of mens leather shoes available, it can be difficult to know which style to choose. In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at some of the most popular types of men's leather shoes.

You were an idiot. You were so utterly stupid, and you could feel the heat coursing through you, prickling at your fingertips and scorching your ears. You had braced yourself for this moment all day, but the sheer anger in Hotch's eyes was something no amount of bracing could shield you from.

You were quite accustomed to his eerily tranquil expression, often misleading, like a wolf in sheep's clothing. Today though, you were the focus of that discerning stare. 

"Do you understand that gravity of your actions today?"

You were fighting every urge to cry. Confrontation had always been your Achillies' heel, a fact that seemed laughable given your line of work.

You weren't talking about the type of confrontation that came with gunning down unsubs or running into burning buildings. No, it was the intimate kind, the kind that involved the disappointment in the eyes of those you cared about, those you respected, especially him.

So here you stood, tears simmering at the edges of your vision, your hands fidgeting and folding over themselves, knuckles whitening with the pressure.

Your lips parted, ready to speak, to defend yourself, but the rising lump in your throat held the words captive. Silence seemed like the better choice, so you offered a nod instead.

Hotch's hand briefly obscured his face, thumb and middle finger pressing against the bridge of his nose, as he cast a handful of documents onto his desk. They landed haphazardly, a chaotic reflection of the mistakes you made on this case.

"You could've gotten killed." Each word was forced out between clenched teeth. Never a good sign. "In fact, you were this close."

You felt his assessment was inflated, but now was definitely not the right time to point that out. You swallowed the rising retort and cautiously shifted a fraction closer to the desk, eyes flicking to the closed door behind you.

"I'm sorry, Aaron," you said softly, voice betraying the slightest fracture. "It won't happen again."

The sound of your strained syllables caused his head to jerk up. Contrarily, you recoiled, bowing your head into your chest as you feigned interested in the carpet's intricate threads. It was an interesting color. 

You failed to register him circling the desk. Not until the space between you was nearly nonexistent. The toe of his shoes just within your field of view. They were semi-brogue oxfords. His favorite.

The accumulated emotions of the week finally broke through, your shoulders trembling as you frantically brushed away the mortifying tears with your sleeve, only to feel his hands on your shoulders, drawing you into his chest.

"No, no," you protested, but the resistance in your voice was absent in your actions, as you found yourself easily giving into the warmth of his chest. "Don't feel bad for me just because I'm crying."

He said nothing, just a faint hum that filled the space, the vibrations sending ripples across your cheek. 

"You—, you were reprimanding me," you paused to sniffle, "and I deserve to be reprimanded. I know what I did was stupid."

"It was." His hand lay on your back, thumb circling lightly through your dress shirt, nearly burning through the fabric. "But I'm not going to continue to berate you when I feel as though you've learned your lesson."

"You weren't berating me," you mumble against his shirt.

"I made you cry."

When you looked up, your saw the concern etched on his face, brows pinched, a frown marring his handsome face. His hands cradled your face, thumbs gently clearing the tears as you breathed out a sigh.

"I think you know me well enough to know that it doesn't take much to make me cry."

This was true. You kept your emotions were always close to the surface, whether from happiness, sadness, or sheer frustration. 

Once you had sobbed over the unequal lengths of your shoelace bows. Morgan then proceeded to ask if you had ever been tested for autism.

"It doesn't make it any more disheartening to see," he said, shifting his hands to rest on your shoulders. He looked tired and it made you want to cry all over again.

"Would you feel that way if I was Reid?" You asked. It was a loaded question. One you peppered him with often.

You had strived to draw clear lines between your professional and personal lives, but moments like this made it very difficult. 

He didn't even bother you with a response, and he didn't need to. You knew the answer.

Another quick look over your shoulder, and you pressed a swift kiss to his lips. There was a moment of hesitation from him, the stickler for rules that he is, but soon his restraint gave way, his hand seeking you with a desperate intensity.

He drew back just enough to study your face, like he was trying to commit every detail to memory, like he was making sure you were really there.

"You really scared me today," he confessed, your foreheads resting together as your eyes locked.

"I know."

"Please don't do that again," he implored, pausing only to plant another quick kiss on your upper lip. "This old man's heart can only take so much."

You beamed at him with a cheeky smile. "I can't make any guarantees."

As you headed for the door, he sent a quick slap to your ass, drawing out a bubbly giggle that vibrated through the room.

That old man's heart definitely might give out after what you had planned for tonight.

Why Oxfords and not Brogues? Is it the fit or the look? Just learning stuff

The name, “Oxfords—not brogues” stems from this idea of dressing fashionably and appropriately, but in a way that is timeless and not overly ostentatious. I chose the name after seeing the original Kingsman movie in 2014 as I felt it captured the spirit of my style advice.

The Oxford shoe is a classic gentleman’s shoe, originally popularized by students at Oxford University around 1800. The closed vamp style is timeless, and continues to be a staple in today’s menswear. Brogues are a similar style of shoe with added decorative perforations, originally designed to suit the wet country terrain of Scotland and Ireland. They give off a more casual and ostentatious feeling.

“Oxfords—not brogues,” is not advice to avoid brogues altogether. One of my favorite pairs of shoes are my Allen Edmonds Fifth Avenues that I wear almost every day, and those have some brogue detailing on the toe. Trendy and decorative menswear items have a time and place in a gentleman’s wardrobe. If you have to own just one shoe or the other, though, plain oxfords are a classic shoe that will keep you looking great in a wide variety of settings. By comparison, brogues have gone in and out of style over the last few decades. They are a little more limited on what you can wear them with, as well. The goal of my blog is to provide content inspired by that theme: stylish, but versatile and timeless.

The Kavalier has a great video discussing the origin of the phrase, “Oxfords—not brogues,” and the difference between the shoes:
