New pieces to brighten up grey days.

Many of the new items that have arrived on MR PORTER today are a welcome sight, especially considering the thick grey cloud that has surrounded our office of late. With holidays booked in the diary, and the weather in London being rather grim, it’s always pleasing to be able to imagine what life will be like for a fortnight or so when we have landed in more pleasant climes. And what better way to do that than to start packing? Not literally, of course. That would be insane. But we can definitely begin to look at some of the new things we would eventually like to cram into our suitcases before heading somewhere warm.

So, whether you’re in the market for a camp-collar floral shirt such as this one by Engineered Garments, some sophisticated sandals – Dries Van Noten gets our vote – or something simpler like a crew-neck T-shirt or some linen shorts, you may well be in luck.

Alternatively, perhaps you are staying put for the foreseeable future. Looking for something else to ease that hardship? Check out the rest of What’s New here.
