Thurs 18th: Re-discovering Heliocentric Electric Part 3

For the final post to look back at my A/W collection from last year here are shots by Amy Gwatkin who has JUST LAUNCHED HER WEBSITE so click the link to have a browse!  Exciting times!  

It is common knowledge and official fact that Amy is one of my favorite people in the world.

When I put out a shout for donations of empty plastic bottles, she was the only person to deliver me some (props to Verity and Elisha who I know saved some!).  For this favour she is going to be receiving some cosmic colourful paraphernalia in exchange................news of which will follow tomorrow............here is a sneaky peak.

Sat 6th March: Lazy Oaf

I am going to be an incredibly lazy oaf with this post and not actually write anything........no words necessary .........just look at these RAD pictures and get straight into town to check out the new Lazy Oaf store which opened yesterday on Fouberts Place, just behind Liberty's.  Or for those out of London, just go online and prepare to be AMAZED and shortly thereafter lighter in the pocket and bereft in the bank balance...........OAF!
