Spring weather is finally moving into full bloom, and I am suddenly feeling very Magnum P.I. I have so much pent up pattern and color that I'm going to wear it all at once—especially ice cream-colored pastels. I love the sun-bleached dégradé twist to the floral print on this retro Prada  1960s-style Hawaiian-esque shirt. Layered with this Trussardi 1911 vest that also has that bleached out "cowabunga" feel: opportunities to show off your sleeves, and room for a holster. Why not throw it on with a pair of plaid Steven Alan boxers worn as shorts (just don't forget to wear underwear) and these aqua shades from KBL. Ground all this color with a Paul Smith khaki cotton fedora hat and matching Sebago suede boat shoes. Tom Selleck moustache not included...
