Faking It

Being a faker is underrated in my opinion. I love faking (not important stuff you know, but the little things). Like when you’re having a chit-chat conversation with your hairdresser and she mishears you: ‘Really? You’re a brain surgeon?!!’. There’s the brief pause where I scan the room, making sure there’s no one I know … Read more

The 1970s

The 1970s. So much to love. Anita Ward bellringing. The original and best platform shoe. Sideburns. Cinema horror classics Don’t Look Now and The Wicker Man. Everyone dancing like this……. And now you can relive all the golden days with a click of the finger, as you virtually surf your way back in time to … Read more

What’s in your Cavern?

What’s the first thing to spring into your mind when I say ‘cavern’? I have to admit that for me, it is Aladdin.

Everyone has an Uncle who is Funk

Does everybody have a funky uncle? I’m trying to think about funky things my uncles have done, but struggling to come up with material…does balding count as ‘funky’ these days? I think the ideal funky uncle is a diverse character. He has interests which span agriculture and food, investment, media, time travel and fashion. Thanks … Read more

You Don’t Need a Hood to be in the Hood

Heard of S.I.T.H? It could stand for many things: Sizzling In The Heat…. or Super Igloo: Tremendous Home… or Screaming Invisible Trampoliner Hurt. But (fortunately) what it actually signifies is: Star In The Hood. London’s Tinchy Stryder is not just a pretty face/rapping rapper/musical melody maker who likes to flash around with his S.I.T.H clothes … Read more

Edible Couture

There are a lot of similarities between pastry chefs and fashion designers. Layers, cutting and construction. Colour, shape and matters of taste.
