What’s the best thing about Summer? It’s socially acceptable to eat ice-cream all the time and cold air con feels extra nice.

What’s the last item of clothing you bought? And what are you eyeing off as your next? A vintage Polo tee was the last thing. Heading to Tokyo soon so will see what is there. Probably more vintage Polo!
What will you be wearing this spring/summer? I don’t wear shorts a whole lot so I’ll probably just will wear Chuck ’70s or Club C, Levi’s washed denim 501, and a variety of tees. I keep it pretty simple in Summer. Winter is much easier to layer and mix it up.
What do you think will be the big trends this spring/summer? Definitely more colour coming through from all the brands. Bright orange tees, royal blue, pastels… all the colours no one wanted to wear the last couple years. Orange has definitely been having a resurgence this winter already.
