Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.With an almost limitless number of clothing brands offering to help us fill our virtual shopping baskets to the brim, it’s now second nature to buy the majority of our clothes online. One such success story is Mr Porter, the go-to destination for the discerning gentleman; albeit a gentleman with very deep pockets. With a virtual store that is packed full of the latest designer labels, shopping here doesn't come cheap. In fact, so eye-wateringly high can certain price tags be, that for many a visit here is typically saved for high days and holidays only.
Which means it's always a pleasant surprise to log on and discover that right now this high end retailer has joined forces with the high street Swedish brand Cos, designing a collection that is both affordable and high-spec.
It's a 35 piece capsule wardrobe entitled “The Art Of The Everyday”, promising to provide all of your sartorial requirements for the oncoming winter. And because this isn't either brands first time at the rodeo - last year their inaugural collaboration sold like the proverbial hot cake - you know that this is a promise they're going to be able to keep.
What we're offered the second time around are classic staples that, as its name suggests, will indeed slip seamlessly into your everyday wardrobe. And although there's nothing ground breaking here - cotton shirts, woollen knits, blazers and the now inescapable bomber jackets form its backbone - its confident about its ability to provide understated luxury with a price tag that won't make you wince. And that's certainly always something to shout about.
