Verbatim: Kate Moss

 "I don't have any strict rules, but my husband does say not to wear a hat with glasses because I look as if I'm trying to wear a disguise," she told the Sunday Telegraph, before adding, "I always have a pair of Ray-Bans in my bag and lots of pairs at home because they always seem to go missing. They're a real staple. And jewellery? I don't ever think you can have too much."

The Guardian on the former Mr. Moss, Jefferson Hack

"AnOther Magazine is about to publish a book of photographic portraits in collaboration with (RED), the global-product brand launched by U2's Bono to raise money for the fight against Aids in Africa. So will he be taking a leaf out of Bono's style manual and wearing wraparound red-tinted shades from now on? "I think we can put them in the 'uncool' box," he says. So what sunglasses should the discerning 38-year-old man be wearing this season? "Aviators," he replies without pause."

Aviators it is then. I'm personally taken with Tom Ford Cyrille, which are available for $250 on unitedshades.com (normal retail is $430). Thanks, Hack.

"For you will notice that what invariably divides Americans from Brits is their devotion to wearing sunglasses all year round. An American will say: “Jeez, it's snowing. I'd better get my shades on before the glare makes me squint, leading to premature wrinkles and an early death.” A Brit will say: “Sunglasses in the winter are for ponces.”"

"He speaks differently, more warmly, to women than to men. He might be winking but you can never tell behind the sunglasses."
