Self Portrait
Who the flipping hell is that? Well it looks to me like a blurry self portrait of, well, myself! Ta da!
Yes it is myself a bit worse for wear, but me none the less.
RESEARCH
Wondered how I came up with the effect idea for my Topman LTD. video? Well you're guna find out - I've compiled a montage of all the video effects I went through before I found the one (the last one ;) )
Take a look...

TOPMAN Tips
Ever wondered how to dress and style yourself, well look no further because I am here to help.
1. Think about the look you want to go for - if you fancy one our trends then aim towards that in what you wear. Even jeans and a t-shirt can look styled if you do it right!
For our GARAGE HORROR look just go for a white Topman two for £12 tee - make sure it fits you right- don't go too big or too small - remember fitting rooms are there for a reason!! Get yourself a nice pair of black skinny jeans - I suggest Topman £25 skinnys - you can't really go wrong. Choose a nice blazer or leather jacket to go over the top and you're sorted. You could do this combination with almost all of our trends, just pick your colours and mix and match. Check out Topman.com
2. If in doubt go simple, you can always add a touch of style with accessories eg. scarves, hats, belts and a nice pair of shoes.
3. Always try clothes on!! I know you lads can't be doing with it sometimes, but really a nice fitting outfit can work wonders ... and attract the ladies ;)

Trends A/W 2010
Check out the top trends that Topman has instore for you this Autumn/Winter 2010:
GARAGE HORROR- Ahh! A mix of the super skinny, gothic styles of the horrors and the gruesomes, along with the mind bending imagery of David Lynch's Eraserhead with a touch of graphic black & white art through in a touch of victorian catwalk and you've got our trend.
GLAM- Only one word needed to describe this trend, and only on word used. Fur, leather, leopard print and velvet are all you need for this trend, through on you're best pair of platforms and get strutting about to the likes of New York Dolls, The Stones and T-Rex.
IGLU- Jump out of your car and into this trend. Primarily inspired by the LA band Iglu & Hartly with their day-glo image and hyper-active sounds this trend is sure to brighten up those winter nights. Think neon macs and super bright jeans. www.myspace.com/igluandhartly
LOS ALAMOS- Based on and named after the work of photographer William Eggleston. 50's inspired shots of the American Dream teamed with the Johnny Depp as the drape Cry Baby, all to the soundtrack of Elvis, Buddy Holly and Chuck Berry- rock and roll baby.
ALPINE - The catwalk is showing us many Alpine inspired garments this season which have been the main influence for this trend along with Espen Eichhofer's nordic imagery. We're loving Alpine this season - a must have for sure!
ESCAPE FROM LA - No this is not based on the Kurt Russell film (which has nothing on Escape from New York- but that's another story...), this trend, if you hadn't noticed, is based on directional (and fashionable) band Liars. Their mix of smart tailoring with casuals sets this trend off. Take a listen to their new album SISTERWORLD at www.myspace.com/liarsliarsliars
