Le dernier cri is that the much admired and hip - The Cool Hunter - is launching a new site this month. This is the teaser…

Window-shopping at Etsy, (yes, again) I came across these felt jewels at Vaivanat’s shop. Classy and bold women’s accessories handmade from felt wool. The Elegant Black and White Ardea Dahlia Felt Flower Brooch can be worn with a jacket, cardigan or blouse and the Sea Buckthorn Orange Berries Felt Necklace will adorn any low cut top or dress. Pieces come in a multitude of colors and designs and are all unique and numbered.

Bravo, Nicola Formichetti! For a beautiful styling job on the Gary Card story in the new issue of AnOther Man. Gary Card is a young and hip set designer that has taken London by storm at 26. There is a magical harmony between the sets and the styling which drew me to this spread. Great melange of colors, forms and undeniable Paul Smith attitude.

Oh, where art thou Owens? We miss you. You have abandoned your urban jungle for greener pastures without looking back. Where are your asymmetric tops and gentle fabrics, your modern cuts and subtle tones? Paris gets you, I know, but so do your roots.
