If you haven't seen the latest campaign from Paul Smith in either London, Hamburg, Milan or Heathrow airport then here's your chance to take a peek.  In conjunction with Millington Associates who have delivered this campaign, Paul Smith have recently launched their 'A Suit to Travel In' promotion.  The 100% woolen suit has been designed to withstand the challenging conditions of intensive travel and its spectacular flexibility is demonstrated by the British Olympic medalist Max Whitlock who performs a series of gymnastic moves while dressed in 'A Suit to Travel In',

Paul Smith, London

We always drool when we walk passed this store on Albemarle street, although not because of the fashion but for its fascinating furniture and curiosities.  We were not quite sure what the structures above are but they were spinning furiously even at night time.

The Mondrian-look is a little done to death, don't you think?  We do actually really like this store, although, thinking of the kind of quality window schemes that these guys usually produce and how beautiful their stores usually look, this one is rather disappointing.  We have no idea whatsoever why this store looks so different from its 'sister' stores around the world, and although change is always welcomed, a Mondrian inspired store front wouldn't have been our first choice.  Maybe this is avant garde here in Nevada, who knows?

Paul Smith, London

Do you ever visit a handbag in a store window or a pair of shoes? I know a lot of my female friends do and find themselves virtually licking the glass willing them onto either their feet or arms. I feel the same thing about 'Home' stuff. OK, well I have the usual dark wooden floorboards oozing that ostentatious poverty look and absolutely gorgeous leather upholstered furniture that I sink into at the end of a hard days work. Well, why work if one cant enjoy sinking into gorgeous furniture, gorgeous baths and enjoying fabulous food, hey? Whenever I travel to NYC I spend hours at ABC just licking everything in wonder and desire. OK, well maybe my budget is more Crate and Barrel if I'm honest, but one can at least aspire to beautiful things. Don't get me wrong, I'm not materialistic, but surrounding oneself with beautiful things is one of life's pleasures, isn't it? I love this Paul Smith Home store here in London. It is way out of my price range, but looking is free at least. If you have a spare £2,900 for this shell covered dolls house (marked down from £4,200) or the 'Love too' silk wall hanging for £1515.00 then swing by and make the purchase. Just let me know where this stuff is going so that I can swing by to yours and lick the glass there too.

Paul Smith, Albemarle St., London

I always like to press my nose up against the glass of this Paul Smith Store along Albemarle st. in Mayfair, London and simply drool. The most delicious (and incredibly expensive) objets d'art perfectly placed simply oozing sophistication are contained within this site. Perfectly and elegantly, that is, 'stuff' that you never knew you wanted and possibly couldn't afford. I recently saw a piece of graffiti by Futura 2000 placed in the windows taken from The Clashes 1981 tour produced as a backdrop which was a snip at £35,000 - ouch. The windows here have chromed 1970's cubed side tables with a combined purchase price of £3,400. Still, if you have the cash, do go along and buy your piece of history. If, like me, you don't have the cash, do go along and enjoy the spectacle. There are some beautiful things here to view and enjoy, and well, viewing is free.
