Here’s a nice casual trilby for when the sun decides to make an appearance.  If you’re going to be a “hat man” I think it’s wise to go somewhat understated (unless, you know, it’s a costume thing!) and this one fits the bill perfectly.

I’m loving this new t-shirt called “Pros & Cons” by Threadless.  Bright red and politically incorrect – what’s not to like?!
Styled like a vintage cigar advert and claiming to relieve asthma and bronchitis* this is a great one to cover your lungs with!
* May or may not be lies.
Threadless “Pros & Cons” T-Shirt – $18 (that’s, urm, about £12).

Head cold?  Need a stylish beanie?  Try this one  – £45 from Paul Smith.

This new watch from Diesel is either meant for the constant traveler or the unashamed nerd, but who cares either way – it looks like a crazy device from the future!

The “Finger” t-shirt by Dark Muse features a large photo print of Heidi Klum on the front, and is available in grey (pictured), black or white.

In yet another watch-related-post today, BoingBoing and Watchismo have joined forces to bring you a chance to win one of Quicksilver’s new “eco watches”, the Ray, valued at $450 USD.

If anyone’s wondering what to get me for Christmas, I’d happily accept this new Palindrome Too watch by Philippe Starck for Fossil.

It’s well beyond the time of year now where you realise that it’s all down hill from here until at least next June.  There’s nothing else for it but to wrap up warm and restrict your exposure to the elements to quick sprints to the nearest public house.  Not all of us are fortunate enough to live next door to the Dog and Smoking Jacket but fear not – help is at hand.  Or head.

Having featured the Case-Mate iPhone ID Case recently, and deciding that it solved a problem that other manufacturers seemed to be ignoring, I was surprised to find two more options in one day.  It seems that iPhone wallets are becoming big business, and I say that’s a good thing. 

These chunky cufflinks are hand made to order using real watch mechanisms salvaged from vintage watches, and as such no two pairs are exactly the same.  You don’t need to be a watch nerd or know what “steampunk” means to appreciate their industrial design.
