I wouldn’t normally recommend shoes as a gift because they tend to be a very personal thing in my experience. However, Jeffrey West shoes and boots crafted in a classic English style offer something really special as a gift.
The quality of the design and workmanship really is superb. Admittedly, with prices hovering around the £200 ($400) their a bit pricey. However, their gonna look wonderful in a well cut suit or even a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt.
Angelo Galasso clothes are exclusive and luxurious. It’s safe to say that they are feted by many luminaries including Roger Moore, Flavio Briatore, Richard E Grant, Simon Le Bon, Mike Tindall, Frank Lampard, Puff Daddy, Michael Caine to name just a few.
The Interno8 speciality style is the high collared shirt which is a personal favourite of mine.
Something like the examples below are really as good as it gets in terms of sumptuously luxurious shirts.

The classic ‘keffiyah’ or ‘shemagh’ headdress scarf is traditionally worn by Arab men as protection against the desert elements.
They were picked up as handy apparel in the desert by British troops posted to the Middle East during World War II. Subsequently, they were made fashionable in the 1980’s amongst the uber cool fashionistas and now they’re making a resurgence in the noughties with various celebrities sporting them this summer.
Celebrity fans include: Jodie Kidd, Kirsten Dunst, David Beckham, Sienna Miller, Carl Barat and Janet Jackson.
I have to say they do look quite cool and would probably make a great gift. Urban Outfitters apparently sell them for $20 (£10).
These babies have got to be the ultimate gift for the house proud. Quite simply they will keep your home clean, while you walk from room to room.
They don’t look great in this snot green colour but that’s a minor detail. I’m sure they will be offered in more appetising colours…
Apparently they’re still at the concept stage, but if Electrolux can get the fundamentals right I’m sure every housewife on the planet will want a pair.
It’s doubtful that their going to win any fashion prizes but who cares when there saving on the housework!
