When Chekhov saw the long winter, he saw a winter bleak and dark and bereft of hope. Yet we know that winter is just another step in the cycle of life, but standing here among the clients of Volpe and basking in the warmth of their hearths and hearts, I couldn’t imagine a better fate than a long and lustrous winter.
So that means another wine evening soon, and a delivery of new shirts to make those balmy spring days a sunrise closer.

We’ve had a little top of stock, with more things to come, plus some inspiration going out via the Daily Outfit Update and photos on Instagram.
I’m now spending so much time on Anti-Social Media that I have no longer got time to write the Newsletter, although I did manage to conjure up a little drivel over a couple of hours on a flight last week.
And of the course the real reason was that I had a 21st Birthday at the weekend. (My own, again)!
Anyway photos:

In fact neither of those, I just wanted to use that title.
So a few little bits of prose, before the photos.
It is National Poetry Day.
I will also regularly post photographs of what I am wearing, or not, to bore you. In today’s photo I am wearing a suit, however what I am not wearing, is socks!
You get the gist, this isn’t Countdown.
Could be anyone!
So I was a guinea pig. No not in a previous life, however that would make a change from being an Egyptian Princess. It seems that everyone who has seen a ‘Shamen’ or tried Regressive Therapy will have been royalty of one type or another. I would settle for having been human.
Anyway, back to the guinea pig thing. I received an email from Jeremy of Corbin and King fame, offering dinner at The Colony Grill, how could I refuse? I’d get to sample dinner before the restaurant was actually open. Maybe they’d let me loose in the kitchen and I could wow them with my culinary skills.
So I emailed Jayne and begged. I explained that if I could come for dinner as a guinea pig, the gaping void left in my life by being left out of the trials for Viagra would be filled, once again I could hold my head up in public again.
Then I panicked and thought, what if I’d would have been given the placebo? Oh, the shamen of it.
No such problems at The Colony Grill. The Beaumont Hotel is beautiful, the bar; dare I say, sexy? The restaurant and food were everything you would expect from Chris and Jeremy. On hand to enhance the experience were Robert, Jason, Daniele and the fantastic Shirley.
I can highly recommend the experience.
I was chatting to a friend yesterday whose mother is in a Santuary for the Ederly (Old People’s home) in Rome. She is a little older than my mum, but a similar breed. She’s not happy being there, and her main gripes are as my mother’s would be; the quality of the red wine isn’t up to scratch and the Chippendales haven’t been booked to appear nightly.
I’m trying to think of something along the lines of “youth is wasted the young”, and all I could come with was “the mind is willing, but the flesh is weak”. So back to those trials again!
Anyway I have digressed; digressed, not regressed I am still here.
Some new stock, available in limited quantities, as always.
Email me if you have any questons.
BUT PLEASE, I can’t answer questions like:
Why Chelsea sold Daniel Sturridge to Liverpool and why Man. United sold Danny Welbeck to Arsenal or Wolves are doing so well? Sorry Jake, I’m sworn to secrecy and will take this knowledge to the grave.
Well OK, the real answer is; I don’t know!
