I am, and I like the material a lot. However, the neck is quite large which I like less. If you like that or don't mind it, it's a wonderful product...
The Real McCoy’s chinos: Review
If the last chinos we reviewed in this series were a little more unusual ( from Casatlantic ) then today we’re back with a very good, very everyday pair. Similar in that respect to the first brand we covered - Rubato - just more on the workw...

Although my purchasing has certainly slowed in recent weeks, I have continued to buy things that seemed practical, or which I wanted to try in order to cover on Permanent Style. Time at home means burrowing into your closet, experimenting with old ...

Indeed. With watch straps against shoes, you really don't have to match at all, just keep them harmonious. A black shoe would probably be nice with that blue...
My Christmas list
At this time of year I normally do a list of Christmas gift suggestions. Apparently last year a reader took the initiative and left a print-out of the list sitting on a coffee table at home. It did the trick – a couple of the items turned...
