Sweden isn’t necessarily known as one of Europe’s fashion powerhouses. But now a century-old menswear label is earning a solid reputation across the continent for, fittingly enough, its sleek, classic pieces.

Reserving their best work for suits and outerwear, Tiger of Sweden’s timeless cuts bear enough contemporary detailing to seat them well amongst then other ‘new classics’, sweeping the men’s fashion world.

This certainly isn’t your father’s label; Tiger of Sweden clothing isn’t for every man. But if you have a penchant for classic clothing with a sleek twist, Tiger’s collection of business and casual wear will certainly meet your day-to-day needs.

Finally, the Swedes get noticed for what they’re wearing, rather than what they’re not.

Australia’s richest man, 39-year-old media and gambling baron James Packer, is reportedly heading up a consortium looking to purchase British marque Aston Martin for a cool £600 million.

Despite often seen whirring around the streets of Sydney in his DB9, and known as a keen anglophile after his recent purchase of a £15 million Mayfair apartment, the rumors have surprised financial analysts in his home country, and disgusted car lovers the world over.

Whatever’s going on, this could be the most frightening Aston move involving an Aussie since George Lazenby drove one around in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service…

99.9% of British banknotes show traces of cocaine, according to forensic tests conducted by a London newspaper.

Lead researcher Dr James Carter explained: “Once cocaine is fixed on to a note it tends not to come off. The cocaine particles become caught up in the fibres of each banknote.”

Humorously, the newspaper isolated the plummeting cost of cocaine as the reason for this supposed increased usage.

Cocaine must be cheap if users still have a £10 or £20 note left over that they can afford to use solely for consumption.
