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...

    • I can't answer your question. But on them generally: it's changed hands in the last year or so, I think. I paid £35 for interior and exterior and they did a crap job. I'll go to the one on Herne Hill (or just do it myself if health allows) next time.
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays! 
    • Was that the one where you put a coin in and it squirted water at you? what was the name of the one in hanway street - whatever you ordered it came on a segmented tray like you get in prison (I imagine). Prices were a steal.
