Nice selection. The pop-up flea looks very interesting and I look forward to reading all about it.
Have a good trip old boy.

London.
Hmm. Like it - would LUV it if you swapped the khakis for dark jeans and the shirts for something italian.
Isn't Giusseppe already Italian.
50 bucks for all that. unbelievable. you are so worthy of being the affordable wardrobe guy.
Such a wonderful travel kit. You inspire me more and more each day, G.
Throw in some silk long johns, and you're set for almost any weather.
Oh so suitable (!) and overflowing with real style. I hope you had a fantastic worn and loved hard-cased leather suitcase to carry it all in.
Nice stuff but I think that I'll be stocking up on your opposite number's silk scarves at $335 a pop for Christmas gifts.
Like that blue repp stripe with the herringbone tweed- very sharp and a color combo I hadn't thought of- now I ned to appropriate it for myself...
Fantastic! where's that great tweed jacket from?

Just curious, what sort of reading material do you prefer when traveling?
Andrew,
For this trip it was "Mont Saint Michel & Chartres", by Henry Adams. Nothing like a 100 year old tome on the intricacies of Gothic cathedral architecture to pass the time.
Anon,
It's an oldie...Hardwick Clothes for Ben's of Amesbury , Massachusetts. I love those old store brand labels.
