I think the first time I feel in love with hats was when I saw Sound of Music and Maria’s hat. Wanted to play the guitar too but that weren’t happening. I only have one floppy hat that I ...
That’s right! Your closet. Could you put a true value on how much you have spent on your purchases over the years? I could not. But how come my closet doors are not closing, and why is there a ...
I love it when you see our great British Retail Indies get the recognition they deserve. British boutiques need and deserve an everyday in the media spotlight besides the usual heavies. It like treas...

This post is not my usual tone but it is one that I want to get out in the open. If it inspires just one then I know I have done something good. Today it came to my attention that another designer Ch...
Until we have the weather we deserve (literally chucking buckets lately), stimulate your pupils, enlarge your irises and take in the dramatic delight of the editorial piece ‘High Plains Drifter...
No-one likes to show their bad bits. However the quick mind of Françoise Mouly came up with an ingenious idea of collecting the covers the New Yorker wouldn’t use. Basically the rejects. But wh...
As much as I practiced I could never body lock or do the windmill (most probably for fear of breaking my neck) so basically stuck to my soul girl grooves, but my love of Hip-Hop was always there. Man...
I’ve been banging on about prints for a while and even I my mono-toned wearing self is getting bugged eyed at the array on offer. That being said I have to give props to H&M’s current...
We are the London friends of RETROSUPERFUTURE. Go get your shades on!
Back in the day, Sundays were the ‘press pause and play’ days whilst we listened to the Top 40 countdown. I heard the tune before the video because we never had MTV back then so I and my ...
I have been asked many times to write a piece on what I know from my many years in retail and as a well-seasoned fashion agent, so here’s a little bit. This is not a sermon and I’m no gur...
I came across this bleary eyed this morning on a friends twitter feed via Atsuhitman posted great images of the The TWEED RUN OSAKA JAPAN. and considering I am a totally crap bike rider it was these...
I actually cannot wait for a bit of decent warm weather or for the summer to arrive! I’m even more excited at the amount of African influenced collections there will be to choose from so I can ...
Just about any sexy sells so they say, but how it is conveyed to engage you is another matter. Fashion photography with just a hint of the ‘Oo! La, La!’ can become iconic, if it gets the ...
Nicola de Main has been on the fashion scene for a while now and has gained a very good reputation for her stylistic, imaginative interpretive prints. To the point that her designs have caught the ey...
It’s gritty, creative, messy, genuine, has soul, character and characters, fearless, a risk taker or breaker, has an attitude. That’s the East End and that’s Shoreditch for you. Dur...
OK. So many of us cannot afford to buy that designer dress, bag, shoes, coat so coveted by the fashion press and that you would ‘So love’ but you can still make a massive statement by dit...

It’s all fair and well-looking cool and crisp on the outside with your threads but what about the home. This area I don’t have much knowledge in, but these two companies came to my attent...
You are able to sit with a wonderful home cooked meal, flowers and candles and have a very funny conversation about WAR on Valentines Day? I say Yes! It is! We even discussed about how we would defen...
A week prior to London Fashion two major London are hosted. Pure London and Scoop International. Pure London held at Olympia is the 1st point of call for many UK boutiques hosting an array of clothi...
Casting ‘normal‘ people for a well know brand is no joke! It’s hard work. The brief’s requirements was pretty easy and we headed off to Westfield Stratford to find these great...
Paying a Saturday visit to the endearing Anthony at his new enviable showroom AMF just off Brick Lane, I hardly sat down to finish my green tea. I was too distracted with the brand line ups he had ...
Finally officially announced. As well as playing a part of Super’s Liberty prints collaboration, I am very happy to have been involved in this one too! Even happier when I received mine hot off...
My own hair is a life long, repetitive episode. Wash, condition, steam, blow dry, moisturizer, wrap, straighten, style. Going to the hairdresser would mean a good part of the morning or afternoon go...

Each time I come across prints such as these I think of Hubba Bubba or Bubblelicious chewing gum. Strawberry and Cola were my flavours. Every Saturday morning without fail was cartoons until we were ...
