A slight, ever so slight, shift for Penfield for Spring/Summer 2010. The brands rugged origins are tempered a touch, giving classic working fabrics a little refinement. The Penfield aesthetic doesn’t falter completely though, and expected looks like the Vasson jacket remain.

Hickory stripped shorts match chambray and oxford shirting and there’s a reasonable bag (above) in the mix. You might say Penfield straddles the line of two trends this season – and we might wonder how many of us will delicately be doing the same.

Brands seem to be understanding that they’ll gain far more viewers by letting us in on their creative process instead of letting some marketing lackey write some useless buzzwords. Take the Stansfield blog for example, They’ve started to show some of their research for their SS10 collection and so far, it seems like they’ll be incorporating some nautical influences. Take a look at some more Stansfield SS10 research pictures after the jump.

Its about as hot as it can be in the Northeast right now. Might as well drop some more Tom Ford action on this sweaty of weekends. How abut the Terry Richardson photo shoot for Tom Ford’s Eyewear Spring/Summer 2008? Head up. Some of these photos may not be NSFW, but hell, its Saturday. (via artschoolvets)
