Words

Visvim's use of elbow patch details on their shirting has become one of their trademarks in the last few seasons. While I tend to go for the most simple and plain shirts when it comes to an oxford BD, their choice of patterns and tones combined with the Egyptian oxford cotton makes me think about bending my own rules.

—01. Cross Town Jacket.
—02. Explorer Vest.

Words

The new Summer 2012 collection from Corona offers a small but perfectly formed selection that pretty much covers all the Spring bases. These are easy to wear pieces in lightweight fabrics, with a good amount of attention paid to both colour and print. Light layering at it's very best.

There appears to be a near never ending selection of literary journals on the shelves of the book stores I visit, which means a never ending temptation to put yet another dent in my wallet. The second issue of the Milan Review is no exception. Featuring 224 color pages inside a dark blue cover, the book is divided into twelve chapters, each named after a sign of the zodiac, and each containing a short story and portfolio by a different artist. The likes of Iphgenia Baal, Clancy Martin, Matthias “Wolfboy” Connor, Chiara Barzini, Shane Jones, Massimiliano Bomba, Carola Bonfili, and Toony Navok are all featured inside this excellent publication.
