With the crisp Fall air comes the warning that Winter is quickly approaching, which means to me that it times to get new gloves. As a smart phone user I have often struggled to find gloves that work with smart phones and are actually fashion forward. It is next to impossible. I have bought many pairs over the years for this very function and been disappointed by the result – either tech wise or quality wise. Enter Quill&Tine, a Canadian based glove company that is here to change what smart technology gloves look and feel like. Designed in our home and native land, Quill & Tine gloves are handcrafted with supple lambskin leather that is engineered to interface with touchscreen technology, as well as soft cashmere & lambswool for an added touch of luxury and warmth. The only trouble is that I can’t decided between two pairs – get both?

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
