COS x GREEN SOCCER JOURNAL

So someone told me about this collab a little while ago but I'm very good at keeping things under my proverbial hat (i.e. - forgetting). An odd pairing, perhaps, but no doubt very stylish. Football is no longer the sport loved by beer guzzling skinheads, being a casual is cool and slightly metrosexual in a scandinavian way, didn't you know? Check out The Green Soccer Journal if you're not yet acquainted.

Fellas, here is your chance to scrub up well with 20% off. For a close up of the deets click here, and to shop the new COS collection online click here.

SLAM, DUNK, PUSSY

Nike Zoom Kobe vii in leopard. Partial to a bit of animal skin, these are definitely making me purr.

The Zoom Kobe vii is a blokes (typical) basketball shoe. This style can be customised in NikeiD and has the option of a lo or hi cuff along with some lo-tech prints, no kitty cat though. Lo cuff allows agility, hi cuff offers support. The hi cuff looks a bit daft in my opinion, like a quilted velour sock. Ridiculously tempted by these and will set you back £100. A mens UK6 equates to a womens UK5.5 and word on the blogs is they run narrow.

ADD TO CART!

New running gear perhaps...?

LATE AT THE TATE

POP INTO PALACE

For one week only... by next month you won't be able to swing your Proenza Schouler handbag in Dalston without hitting someone wearing a Palace tee, and I fear by Christmas Joey Essex will have asked Santa lay off the Supreme gear and sort him one of these instead. So get in there first and tell those little hipster bastards who's a FASHION BOSS. You'll be in excellent company with the likes of Rihanna...

These limited Nike Lunar Rejuven8 Mid's came out in June 2010. Hankering for the past.

ANNIE

...Lennox.

Strong, Scottish and a bit mental. Probably why I like her so much.

THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING ERNEST

A little insight into one of my fabulous friends, Omi... read her insightful blog post here about the colourful characters she meets, this week Ernest and his lover, while waiting for the No.4 bus in Portland.

I do hope No.4 becomes a regular slot.

I also wonder if Ernest thought Omi was as odd as she perceived him to be...

Omi & I

LOVE IS...

TOWIE HUFF

Tom Pearce, side kick of Joey Essex and blue eyed star of The Only Way is Essex, comments on the recession...

"It can be put simply: a state of collective euphoria and excessive risk taking in an increasing globalised economy means that small ripples on one side of the world will eventually be felt on the other. This is due to how inter-connected our modern day global financial system is. Our politicians are not just making decisions that will affect our domestic economy but all of those which are connected around the world. A much more daunting task than it was 30 years ago.
How do we fix it? What do I know... I'm just a reality TV star"
