I hate to be repetitive and reference The Times twice in a row, but the Women’s Fall Fashion 2008 Style Magazine was out this weekend, and I learned some things:

  • Penny loafers are back. It’s best to actually put pennies in them.

This last one didn’t make the mag. Too spooksville? It’s on the Style website, which is a serious trove of all things smashingly cool and high-end.

Coppi even has a little video online. Just between you and me, I think they excel far more at the still.

See their website for more still life grandeur (and another film).
