If your like me and are a massive fan of everything James Bond from: the Aston Martins and BMW's, the cocktails (martini's shaken not stirred,-I have to say as I've tried these shaken of course these taste really good-, Vesper's-which I also have to say as I've tried these once are very strong), insider press releases, locations of where films were shot, crisp tailored styled clothing and accessories used in the James Bond films etc you'll love this and you'll definitely want to keep this under your hat!
A while back I discovered the amazing websites:
www.jamesbondlifestyle.com/
This tells you everything that you'll ever need to know about James Bond things, and I have to say that this came in really handy this Christmas especially when finding out who the tailor's of Mr. Bond himself is Anthony Sinclair in 34 Montagu Square, Mayfair, London:

I read a story somewhere that Sean Connery turned up to the set of Goldfinger wearing a normal suit and the director Guy Hamilton said he wasn't going to wear that and he then took him to his tailors Anthony Sinclairs' which thank goodness that he did as these classically crisp tailored style bespoke suits along with the Aston Martin DB9 are what James Bond is known for.
And without this director doing this you could probably go to another tailors but you wouldn't get the amazing effect that their suits have as an overall outfit such as when you see their ready to wear Double Cuff Shirt that they have created and designed for the 50th anniversary of the film Goldfinger (the double cuff is a replacement of the cocktail cuff style which was adopted by Sean Connery) you or this could just be me but you really do think "Wow that's so white" and their 50 shades of 007 collection of grenadine ties which I think make a perfect accompaniment to this shirt, and it really does give the perfect classic London Gentlemen look.
And this classic Conduit Cut style of tailoring suits was as their website says:
"...a landmark in the history of Savile Row tailoring..."
and really do what they say on the tin as the philosophy of Anthony Sinclair has always been to:
"...produce a well dressed man, rather than someone who stood out from the crowd...
and:
" His clothes represent the epitome of English style: simple, understated, elegant and timeless."
This is true of all of the collaborations that Anthony Sinclair create such as their collaborations with Deakin and Francis cufflinks, Dents glovemakers and among many other fantastic products sold on their website.
And I have to say a massive thank you to the creative director David Mason and everyone at Anthony Sinclair for for helping me find the perfect Christmas present for my dad this year as he is also like everyone in my family a massive James Bond fan and this along with the Grenadine tie really made his Christmas! And this perfectly fit in with the family theme of House Of Bruar!
