Bits and Pieces (recent purchases)

Few scraps from the then and now. Odd bits picked up here and there, some from before Christmas and over the winter, though no posting until the numbers were right.

First up, even though we're having drought warnings and hosepipe bans, a nice bit of waterproofing by keep-you-dry specialists Kway. Nice low-key metallic grey - keeping head down, staying in the shadows and lurking about. However if losing three nil after 45 minutes at Southampton, I'll be looking to come back out wearing blue.

Next buy a classic bit of Ralph Lauren in granddad colours. Nice simple detailing with a smart little chest pocket, perfect for keeping those little chest pocket shaped nick-knacks.

Another scarf, and to think I've only got the one neck. Scott & Lyle with baby bum soft cashmere in fire engine red.

Luxury! What can't speak can't lie! And it's wrote in big FUCK OFF letters to tell you! Blue Harbour Luxury chino shorts. Smoother than silk, when you're wearing these it feels like you're wearing nothing at all. Oh, I'm not...

Pair of white soled boots from Davis and Squire. Sturdy and studenty. Would be right at home in a Parisian riot, because over here in Britain they do it in Reebook Classics and Nike Airmax. And Air Maccies are over a tonne and these were eight quid. Le Monde est a Nous. Now let's throw some stones...

And finally, a sneak peak of 'something spezial' that will be appearing in a post not too far away from here in the not too distant future...
