3rd Aug 2026
We love a guayabera shirt at Permanent Style. On my 2022 trip to Mexico I picked up two lovely shirts which sadly, like the Cadbury’s Freddo , appear to have suffered from some form of sartorial shrinkflation. It can’t possibly be me that’s ... > Read more

Groupthink: A tale of noughties nostalgia

from Permanent Style [alt+shift+b] in design

1st Jul 2026
By Reginald Jerome de Mans* I wore a pair of Gurkha trousers the other day. Those wide-waistbanded eccentricities that looked so dashing on friends’ fit posts, their criss-crossing straps so gloriously inconvenient, they put me in mind of th... > Read more

How to dress like Luciano Barbera

from Permanent Style [alt+shift+b] in design

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
