I’ve always been keen on scandinavian aesthetic when it comes to design, music and movies. It just seems they can say a lot with little, making their point with efficiency, and a minimum of poetry.

Cashmere tie

le Wednesday 30 November 2011by

It is shame that people do not wear cashmere ties enough. Actually, it presents two assets: first it keeps your neck warm, which is nice when mi-season comes and you do not necessarily want to warp up with a bulky scarf.

I’ve just found those very particular denim shorts at Garment Quarter. They come from the brand Unconditional which is a British designer hafway between casual wear and luxury. Multiple zipped pockets are giving the piece a nasty look. Cut-off legs reinforce this impression. The only thing we could dislike is a too loud tag from… Read more
