Now I’m all for constructive feedback as I’m keen to improve my advice, my programs, and my services Mostly Peaceful Armed Patriot Shirt. But the minute you give irrelevant advice (come on, commenting on what she perceived as my weight issue is completely irrelevant to the quality of my style advice), and destructive feedback to someone, well what happens? Our brains shut down immediately. It’s toxic and should be treated that way. I try and maintain a growth mindset, and it’s why I’m always reading, learning, and trying to improve what I do and know. And this morning as I was walking my lovely whippets around the park, I was listening to an audiobook all about improving how you think (it’s called Elite Minds by Dr Stan Beecham) where he was talking about the research around getting people to do better. What was interesting was that when you ask people to write down the best advice they’ve ever gotten, the kind of advice that has made the biggest impact on them. Well, it turns out, it was positive rather than negative advice. Negative advice tends to make us turn off, turn away or just give up because it makes us feel not good enough. In fact, what was fascinating was the research around telling people to “do better” compared to “do your best”. Did you know that “do better” is perceived as negative feedback whilst “do your best” is positive and much more motivating. This is because you can always “do better” and can make you feel like you’re never improving. Well, I’m always trying to help all my program members and clients (and anyone who takes the time and effort to read this blog) improve their style, in a way that is relevant and right for them. And I know language and word choices have a big impact, yet I’d never heard about the “better vs best” research before and it’s opened my eyes to thinking about these words and their impact in a new way. I may have used “what would be better” before and now want to rethink how I phrase my advice.

This season saw a retelling of the romantic narrative that designers flirt with every spring season, Mostly Peaceful Armed Patriot Shirt only this time it comes with an edge. There were sweeping gowns to swoon over but with modern translations to balance them out, such as fresh silhouettes, fabric pairings and garment combinations. The runway imagining of the Dakota Johnson adaptation of Persuasion, if you will. For me, the mood is encapsulated by Liberowe’s viral peplum jacket. “I’m a sucker for practicality and so most of my wardrobe consists of classic, capsule basics like black trousers, striped knits and white shirts,” professes Dawes. “But that doesn’t mean there’s not a part of my soul that longs to embrace a world of prettier, more ‘feminine’ fashion. Enter the modern romantics trend; an all-round cooler, fresher and easier way to incorporate chiffon-y pastels, frills and bows into our everyday wardrobes, and an answer to my fashion prayers.”The S/S 24 collections are all about wearability, but this trend is proof that doesn’t have to mean boring. All it takes is layering a flash of pink and lace under a trench coat as seen at Gucci, adding a bow to comfortable kitten heels at Erdem or a cardigan to your favourite full skirt, or pairing pearl earrings with a monochromatic outfit by way of Givenchy. If Marie Antoinette was dressing for 2024, she’d be spearheading this trend for certain.”. “Organza, lace, intricate ruffles, and 3D florals all came together in the S/S 24 collections to create a new, undone way of dressing that wasn’t overtly girly,” adds Page. “Instead, designers injected a modern refinement into these ethereal pieces. A pastel palette was integral to this mood, ranging from sugary-sweet lilacs to translucent pinks. Versace’s collection was a literal take on this feminine trend, and we have bought 16 runway looks that will be delivered to Net-a-Porter customers one week ahead of any other retailer.”

Great value
Price for them is unbeatable. Seem well made. Very comfortable. And longer than average t-shirts, which is a change from the short t-shirts I usually end up with

Better than before
I bought a lot of these shirts last summer, and bought more again this year. This year the material is much softer, it didn’t shrink nearly as much as last year, in the ham at the bottom of the shirt stays down. 100% improvement, and I liked them last year!

Have washed this various times already. The picture is still the same. The cotton is soft and thick. Was afraid that it would start to wash off, but it’s held up. He loves his gift.
