H&M modern essentials by Beckam

David is back and selects clothes for us

the collection

H&M Essentials selected by David Beckham are back for Spring/Summer 2016. From light summer suits, a solid denim shirt, a light raincoat, to T-shirts and other jersey basics, the range is clean and minimal, making it easy to wear every day. The collection will be available in two drops, February 18 and March 10, in all H&M stores that carry menswear.

“Everything about my Bodywear for H&M has to be authentic. If I wouldn’t wear it, then it doesn’t go in the collection,” said Beckham of the collection. “I want to choose a range that has great quality and design, but is affordable. I’m always trying to evolve the Bodywear collection, and include classic pieces like sweaters and track pants that I would wear out, or at home.”

The different touch that they have, is the material that they are made from (E.V.A.) and that they come to you as a roll and you have to convert it into a bag, so it has something from you! The fact that they are lightweighted and waterproof adds a little something to what we already see as irresistable.

Cinnamon French tost bites

It’s a win, win, win recipe!

cinnamon french tost bites

INGREDIENTS
  • 4 thick slices of slightly stale white bread (1″/2.5cm thick) (Note 1)
  • 2 large eggs (or 3 small eggs)
  • ¼ cup milk
  • Pinch of salt
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • ½ tsp cinnamon powder
  • 3 tbsp butter, separated
  • Maple syrup to serve (not optional!)
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Cut the crust off the bread, then cut each piece into 9 equal cubes.
  2. Whisk the eggs, milk and salt in a medium bowl.
  3. Combine sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
  4. Melt 1½ tbsp of butter in a fry pan over medium high heat. Don’t let the butter brown.
  5. Quickly toss half the bread cubes in the egg mixture and use your hands to shake off excess egg mixture. Place the bread cubes in the fry pan and use a wooden spoon to “sauté” them until browned on all sides – about 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. Remove the bread cubes from the fry pan straight into the sugar mixture. Toss to coat, then remove onto a plate.
  7. Repeat with remaining bread cubes.
  8. Serve immediately, with maple syrup for dipping.
The thickness of each slice of bread is about the equivalent of 2 slices of sandwich bread. But you cut the crusts off so you lose a bit of bread. So this recipe serves around 3 people, or 4 people watching their calorie intake, or 2 extremely hungry people / people who lack self control around doughnuts.
