Less Is More

Insights and nuggets to amuse and inform you...

COLOUR OF THE MONTH... Khaki. It's the "We're going on safari" look that we're talking about. It's also the direct opposite of the garish colours and bright spangled prints the high street will be touting.

BESPOKE... We've discovered the most beautiful footwear - delicate, handmade and very pretty. It's only for ladies and little ones at the moment, but we're rating it just the same. hettyrose.co.uk

NU FAVE... The Hundreds label is our new favourite apparel outfit. Now into its fifth year, the Californian clothing line is perfect downtime clobber with an edge. thehundreds.com

STYLE COUNCIL... Hats off to topman.com for always being ahead of the game. Okay, so it is their job, but damn, they do it well! Forging ahead with new trends and supporting fresh talent is their game.

STARS & STRIPES... Well maybe just stripes - classic and effective, especially on this buff blazer from the Woolrich Woolen Mills collection. In actual fact, we're rating blazers full stop.

UNDER A VEST... Make that a white one. Crisp and even. Simplicity in itself. Face it, you can't go wrong with a vest. Hidden or worn with muscles flexed, it's hot!

KITSUNE VS PETIT BATEAU... And speaking of crisp and even... how delicious that ultra chic French imprint Kitsune have teamed up with classic heritage clothing label Petit Bateau.
