Less Is More

MHI... Turn back a page and remind yourselves of the MHI sweat tops in our Forward Thinking feature. They are so fine, and the Spring Summer 08 collection is so damn hot that it almost brings tears to our eyes.

KSWISS... We warned you about the SS08 KSwiss collection way back when, and now the time is now. You simply must go seek. On first inspections, you'll think, college boy? On second glance you'll realise that it's a style you can play down most easily.

AIAIAI... It occurred to us recently that the standard portable headphones are looking a tad on the boring side, especially the generic white ones. So we let out a whoop of glee when we discovered the Aiaiai sets at oki-ni.com. Coming in orange, green and black.

WENDY'S... It's a little frightening to discover that this here Wendy Belt dates back to the 70s. They were handmade in the basement of the Kensington Market and at the time notched up a punky clientele that included Siouxsie Sioux, The Sex Pistols and The Clash. Anyroad, they're back, in London's Soho.

SYMPHONIC... Never let it be said that vinyl is dead. When a new record store opens up practically in the heart of London you've got to think again. Symphonic is the name, Cube, Lambs Conduit Road is the place and selling quality new and old vinyls is the aim. 020 7242 5483

ON YER HEAD... We totally rate the SS08 Goorin hats collection. In a perfect nutshell, they are upscale headgear. They strut on the sunnier side of the street. Get handsome hats of the finest order, and that's an order!
