Monocle Magazine

Unabashedly self-​indulgent, and yes most people would nod that Tyler Brule is just that. He teaches us about the best places in the world to find retail innovation, the best Japanese handicraft, and yes the most ‘glorious’ clover blossom honey.
This publication is for the ‘self-​proclaimed’ jet set, the globally aware and the aesthetically obsessed, but having said that, I stockpile the issue and indulge myself on the luxurious world of ‘how to spend it’ and how our global leaders are styling their ethnic hair. There are very few places I can go when I am ever-​so curious about pirating off the coast of Somalia and rather a blow by blow, I can find a glossy of Danish Naval officers with shorts and chiselled jaws — tackling modern sea-​banditry (tongue in cheek).
Truthfully, it is quirky, well — produced and if it came with the lifestyle and the first-​class pyjamas I would subscribe but for now I’ll pick it up irregularly in an airport.
