Going under the name Candy by Paul Weller, it’s a limited edition range (no mention of specific numbers) for spring/summer 2007. Two styles so far – pink and brown or light and dark blue “Candy” stripes, with a “superior” finish and 100% cotton composition. An additional design is expected soon.
Like the Paul Weller-design Fred Perry polo shirts, I’m sure everyone will have their opinions on these. If your opinion is positive, you can pick one up for £47.
The Chuck Taylor All Star Hi by Converse is a shoe that is just about as timeless as they come.
This psychedelic take on the "Chucks" are currently only available in Asia (have you heard it before?) but we reckon they will be for sale in the rest of the world pretty soon.

With the BBC getting big on the sounds of New York right now, it seems like a good time to feature something from one of its institutions – the CBGB t-shirt.
Probably the first name you’ll think of when it comes to music in the city, it opened its doors in 1973, closing last year, but probably peaking in influence during the mid 70s, where it became the home for rising US punk/alternative acts including The Ramones, Television, Blondie and the Talking Heads.
The t-shirt is something of a timeless classic. The one featured here is imported from the US and officially licensed. It’s available in a range of sizes and colours, along with two slightly differing designs.
You can pick it up from Balcony Shirts from £19.
Marks & Spencer seems to be improving in all areas – except with its menswear, which continues to go downhill season-on-season. However, there are the odd gems if you look carefully, one of those being these target-style cuffflinks.
Going for a monochromed look, they’re a nice alternative to the traditional targets and have a nice bulk to them, giving the look of a more expensive pair of cufflinks.
Available now both instore and online, you can pick them up for £19.50.

If you’ve never encountered Erin Originals, they specialise in making useful items out of everyday objects – best summed up by these Tape Measure Wallets.
Available in three colours – sunny yellow, snow white and grass green – they’re made fron a mass of vinyl tape measures, sewn together to make a sturdy home for your cash. There is a compartment for notes, 2 compartments for notes and receipts and a clear pocket for coins. And when everything is loaded in, it snaps securely shut.
Measuring 12cm x 9cm, it sells for £25.
Looking like something straight out of a gents outfitters from the 60s is this Adidas Freizeit polo shirt.
Available in an unusual shade of mint, it’s a three-button polo shirt with contrasting collar and pocket, along with elasticated cuffs and waist. And as near touch, you even get Adi Dassler’s initials on the pocket. Though if your initials are also "AD", you could end up looking a little like Delboy!
Available online, you can pick one up for around £50.
