UJ T-000



I have three more pairs of them skinny fit tapered T-000 jeans from Uniqlo, but I still don't think I have enough. I do really need more.

Bespoken Wonderful



If you don't know the label Bespoken yet, now is a great time to do so. Their A/W 2010 collection--which I'm completely posting below--is my favorite of the show season so far. The clothes have a perfect balance of nonchalance and thoughtful polish.

Meanwhile, here is what The New York Times's Eric Wilson, who celebrates the brand's price point here, tells us about the label's pedigree:

Bespoken was started by a group of young cool kids that includes the brothers Paulo and Carlos Gonçalves and the brothers Liam, James and Sam Fayed (whose family owns Harrods, Turnbull & Asser and the Hôtel Ritz in Paris, where they first showed their line in June, and lots of other fancy things). The Fayed brothers apprenticed with the English shirtmaker as teenagers, giving them a taste for fashion and an inspiration for the name of their collection.
