I have to admit that I'm not enough of a woollenwear connoisseur to be familiar with Pringle of Scotland, a label established in 1815. But apparently they originated the much esteemed Argyle pattern, so congratulations to them as they celebrate 195 years in the fashion business. We fans of patterned cardigans salute you!
Argyle platforms? Yes please! And Lou will take them as brogues, I bet.

David Shrigley is a Scottish artist whose illustrations manage to at once capture both the most basic and complex matters of life. His crude drawing style makes his pictures immediately accesible and funny, yet so often the comedy comes from a 'sad but true' element. Oh and he uses lots of text as image... le sigh!!
