The BBC journalist has a background in economics, which is hardly synonymous with the world of high-fashion. But as a keen motorcyclist, surely some of that punky, leather-and-spikes style can shine through?
Here, Monkey looks at some of the BBC journalist’s fashion choices, so you can make up your own mind.
Here, rocking the open-collar business-casual look. Uninspired, maybe. But hardly terrible.
Ahh, now this is more like it. A very on-trend padded jacket, with a complementary-coloured pastel shirt that chimes with the deep blue of the Mersey behind. Stick that combo on Jamie Dornan and you’d be drooling.
Trackside in patriotic lycra. Hmm … the kindest thing Monkey can say about this is that no one looks good in lycra
A chunky knit (again in blue – are you spotting a theme?) beloved of Guardian readers everywhere. He’s probably wearing sandals too.
Another open-necked ‘I just threw this jacket on to turn up the awards ceremony’ look. A splash of colour would do no harm here.
This construction worker look is best described as functional. But does the hi-vis jacket really need to be that baggy?
