In the past, there have been few places for men to turn for style and fashion advice, with magazines, websites, and blogs focusing on the "more glamorous and exciting" women's clothes. Recently, however, there has been a meteoric rise in men's style blogs and Instagram influencers, finally allowing all sartorially minded men to gain insight and inspiration into the latest trends, fashions, and advice on classic styles.
Knowing where to start looking with the entire internet at your feet can be challenging. That's why we've compiled five recommendations of UK-based blogs and influencers to look at to start you on your journey.
