I mean, take your average Taverna, right? Whitewash + blue gloss paint everywhere. Just washes you out completely.


I wouldn't be surprised if his buddy with his back to us isn't lifting that whole charcoal-to-grey combo with a fierce, blood-red stripe on his tie, with matching links and pocket square.

You say that, but if he's not matching those shoulder patches to some brown suede loafers, I'd be amazed.


These dudes have got it going on. The buff guy in the black suit - look again - subtle pinstripe, trousers tucked into long leg-warmer grey socks that match that textured grey shirt. Big call on the tan shoes and hat but I think it's all working.

ps the guy with the grey boots is on the phone reporting in to Sartorial, for the 'hot tips on style from Paxos' article, the card table is also one of his hunting grounds for spotting emerging street fashion trends


you will n note that next seasons key item will be buttoms

edited cos not got mi glasses on!

I'm not normally a fan of the ostentatious watch show, but will forgive the gentleman for the pen in the shirt front - clearly an ironic nod to the tie-pin. I would hazard a guess, too, that the pen's colour matches the thread detail in the buttons, lifting the ensemble from merely "cool card sharp" to genuinely great. This is a look for Alistair Darling I feel.

And the grizzled asymetrical hair line is sooooo this summer, perhaps a stylish addition to the new Dandyism look that we are seeing on the runways both here and in Milan... Ear extensions are also back, as part of the 'retro gambler' look....I am sure Sean could pull it off.


Absolutely agree about the button thread concept, Ted Max... it's all in the detail after all...

    • has lost a Bengal cat there was one wandering around Townley Road this morning - I'm assuming it is not the norm for this fellow to be out and about solo but I'm not a cat expert... IMG_5815.heic IMG_5819 2.heic
    • Hi everyone, I'm Gen, a catsitter based in Sydenham - if you're away this summer and need some care for your pets, please do consider me!  I can typically cover Sydenham, Forest Hill, Penge, Anerley, Crystal Palace, East Dulwich and parts of Peckham. If it's outside those areas, it still might be worth messaging me to see if I can help. I'm registered with Cat in a Flat, with flawless reviews – I'm happy to accept clients through there, or just directly (you can just DM me on the forum here) - whichever you're more comfortable with. I've been catsitting for a few years, and also used to volunteer for Celia Hammond. Here's my profile https://catinaflat.co.uk/pet-sitter/377081 Ping me a message if you need help or have any questions!
    • And we humans bear a lot of responsibility for creating the conditions that brought foxes into urban settings. I certainly don't regard them as pests - they are noisy little criminals, but I'm very fond of them (we have huge numbers of them in my area - I rescued a lost baby fox earlier this year). However, there are pest control companies that use humane methods to deter them and redirect them to different territories (a friend of mine works for one, but sadly for OP, I don't think this is in their catchment area).
    • Please don't call them "pests". They are animals who have as much right to be here as we do. Which doesn't mean we can't use humane ways to keep them off our crops, like fruit cages and netting.
