The clothes we wear speak volumes about who we are and how we want others to view us. Whether to boost waning confidence as we age, appear casual when we feel anything but, or fit in with our peers, we choose outfits that offer us the best armour in life.

As such, those pieces, no matter how tatty or how long since we last took them out, earn a ...

Fabulous Thunderbirds frontman Kim Wilson. Apart from the new instrumental set, Frampton currently has two new albums in various sates of completion; a full-on solo acoustic album, and an all-blues collection featuring outtakes from the recent All Blues chart-topper.

Mike Nichols: A Life, by Mark Harris Penguin Press For decades, Mike Nichols was one of the most recognized names in theater and film, but very few people really knew the legendary director — even, it seems, himself. At least that's the impression one gets from Mike Nichols: A Life, Mark Harris' comprehensive new biography of the auteur. And he makes a great argument — even in childhood, Nichols was "alone on his planet and at home nowhere," and he would always see himself as an outsider, even as he became one of the most celebrated directors of his generation.
