English Fashion Chic via the Small Ads in The Spectator

A lifetime quest, for sartorial zest,
Has left me a gawping commentator,
But I must opine, it's not Calvin Klein,
But a safari jacket from The Spectator,
That's my coat of choice, the posh boy's voice,
And the only way to look smart,
It's no Paris vogue, just an English rogue,
And a blatant affront to art.
