Paul Newman: A true icon, in every sense of the word.

an award winning actor & film director, an entrepeneur, a professional racing car driver, a humanitarian - philanthropist, and perhaps the most handsome and effortlessly stylish man to have lived. his style, from back in the day, is currently mirrored in this seasons menswear - preppy, masculine, tailoring, sailor inspired, effortlessly cool. if you aren't accustomed with him you should be! mr paul newman. what a man.

YMC

you must create. london label YMC is killing it right now with the launch of its s/s '11 collection. sensible; yet wearable,  modernistic & distinctive. their philosophy centres around not following season trends/styles - but creating their own in line with their ethos. well it would seem that the current styles (see below) as created by founders fraser moss & jimmy collins are very befitting for spring/summer - unintentionally in keeping with the seasonal trend - preppy, with their own distinctive twists of socks and sandals and revolutionary deck shoe designs.
