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...

    • 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.
    • This thread started about how to deal with pests that cause a lot of damage and leave unpleasant offerings, but has morphed into concerns about welfare for the pests.  I think it's time that local authorities gave us help with foxes and squirrels:  it's especially difficult trying to grow fruit and veg when these animals cause so much destruction.
    • Peter has been recommended many times on here and we can now also recommend him highly, having just had our wetroom walk-in shower done. Prompt response, came when he said, engaged with us helpfully when decisions had to be made, cleaned up well at the end and finished on time. He has been tiling 25 years, and is clearly expert. He also does e.g. victorian tiled pathways.   
    • They properly think " its that weirdo who gives us stage lighting whilst we ae mating, again'" 😅
