20110812-063920.jpg

It Looks like VANS is opening a PopUp shop at London’s Old Spittalfields Market just in time for the VANS Downtown Showdown. Picking up on the Victorian era Pub and Jack the Ripper theme from the contest the store has the look and feel of a pub. A baby grand piano (I hear it actually [...]

brother 1 copy

So I guess I should properly introduce myself, as I have been rather rude, up until now. My name is Sophie the sack maker.

Obsession is not a perfume by Calvin Klein, it’s a store in Paris called L’eclaireur

I must say I am a fan of a concept store. I believe my first memorable experience of this was Dover street market, London; when I was sent there to do a competitive shop by my, then, tutor Jane Sturgess. As soon as I enter I felt at home in some odd way, I guess this must [...]

Ladies? Mustaches?

ranya

Mustaches are absolutely everywhere now and I think it is time that the ladies jump on this bandwagon. Personally I appreciate a woman with a finely groomed ‘tache. It doesn’t even have to be a real one (maybe that is what I would prefer…but who knows). Take out an eyeliner pencil and BAM! an alluring [...]
