Pull out a Breton stripe
The past seven days have been a crazy week in fashion retail. Forget economic wobbles or the eccentricities paraded at Paris Fashion Week. Britain is having a heatwave.

It’s a bit quiet in the office at the moment; the women of my-wardrobe are at the carnival that is London Fashion Week. The men are waiting patiently for their day, on Wednesday, for the sixth dedicated menswear day at Somerset House.

The quickest way to survey the fashion chops of the entire UK male population is to leave these shores. Having just returned from an early summer holiday I can confirm that one unexpected side effect of going a long way from home is that you get a picture (well, more a collage) of the entire UK.
Thinking of perfect capsule wardrobe...
Looking forward to an early summer getaway also brings about thoughts of the perfect capsule wardrobe.
Double Denim, I just don’t get it!
I know it’s ‘uber trendy’ right now, but I really think that if it’s going to be done, make sure it’s a black denim top and a blue denim bottom (or vice versa), but never a 2 tone denim blue!!!!

“I dunno about this climate change but I do know it’s winter for nine months of the year in England so you’re gonna need a good coat son, ” quoth Gerry, my neighbour, an ancient mariner and a reliable source of wisdom in my life.
