Obey x Keith Haring Raglan Baseball Tee

I've never been a massive Keith Haring fan but I LOVE this new collaboration baseball top he's designed for Obey. All that movement! So perfect right now what with all the Olympics fever. The curved hem and 3/4 sleeves are great details too, as is the small, Obey logo on the back (not shown here but you can see it on Size's site here). Very cute and I bet it'll look even better once it's a bit love-worn and the cotton's got that vintage feel to it.

Keith Haring x Obey Flag raglan t-shirt, £40 in S-XL from www.size.co.uk

Rihanna Does Cutting Edge Comfort With Yeezy 2's in East London This Weekend

Loving this look from Rihanna who kept it low key this weekend as she set about the serious business of performing then partying in East London.

Sexy black leather and tough denim, luxed up with gold Egyptian style detailing and accessories - even her mic had a gold finish. Talk about attention to detail. Whilst her short shorts with fishnet cut offs got the Daily Mail in a tizz, and Rita Ora was spotted wearing the exact same Katie Eary digital leopard print t-shirt Rihanna had worn on stage at the Radio 1 Hackney Weekend, it was her feet that interested me.

Sporting the super hot, black Air Yeezy 2 sneakers - the latest killer Kanye West-designed drop from Nike - with their glow in the dark soles, it was great to see a female performer at a festival who wasn't in either crazy heels or wellies. Comfy can be cool too, girls! Especially when you do it like this.

Global Hyper Color Style Phone Cases from Griffin - Rave On!

You know that saying about wanting to get your 'hot little hands' on something? Well, if you're one of those hot handed types (I'm not, I'm currently sat in my coat and considering lumping on a blanket as well it's so cold today) you'll certainly make an impact with these new colour changing iPhone cases from Griffin.

An extension of the technology made popular in the 90s by Global Hypercolor - those t-shirts that reacted to body heat, changing colour when and where they got warm - these iPhone / iPod Touch covers are a little piece of retro rave culture in your pocket. £24.95 from the Apple Store.

PS. I visited Global's design HQ as part of my school work experience and found a pair of Global Hypercolor jeans in the sample cupboard. THANK GOD those never made it into production - can you imagine?? There does definitely seem to be a bit of love about for the t-shirts again at the mo but having been there and literally having got the T-shirt, I think this is one 90s revival I'll swerve.

Hello Kitty KISS Band T-Shirts!

\m/ RAWK KITTY \m/

How cute are these?! KISS x Hello Kitty sleeveless rock vests from Hot Topic. Particularly loving the back on the shirt below and the Kitty faces made up with the classic KISS starry eyed make up. Nice attention to detail too - Hello Gene Simmons' tongue! www.hottopic.com

DAMN! When will these Fresh Prince sweats be back in stock?? sniff

Yeah ok, so I know it's a bit student, and yeah, also noted that JLS have been spotted wearing them but STILL, sorry but I've totally fallen for the Fresh Prince of Bel Air sweats, hoodies and T's by French label BePriv Paris. Sadly they've been out of stock since I first found them last year and no-one's replying to emails (in my bestest French and everything...) so I guess I'll just have to keep checking back. Or maybe settle on one of these Kermit the Frog t-shirts where he looks just like the lovely Alber Elbaz (who recently celebrated his 10 year anniversary with Lanvin) with his bow tie and glasses. The tiny Nike replica chains by Merystache are pretty sweet too. Make a note to check em out for yourselves at www.beprivparis.com

OK so after Rihanna worked a straight up original 80s BOY look on the Jonathan Ross Show the other week, everyone knows that BOY London is back. The underground fashion label which was founded in 1977 became famous for its iconic logo print designs worn by every top popstar in the early 1980s, has been enjoying a resurgence with those early-adopting East London hipster kids for over a year now thanks to vintage eBay finds and capsule collections via the likes of Urban Outfitters. Now though, the whole SS 2012 retro BOY London collection is available in the UK exclusively at Selfridges, both in store and online at www.selfridges.co.uk. Here are some of my favourite bits but check the site for the whole collection - or at least what's left as it seems to be going FAST!

Supreme Spring / Summer 2012 Collection

Too cool for school New York skate empire Supreme has launched it's new Spring Summer 2012 lookbook online.

The new collection mixes the street style and utility the label is known for, with a real 50s Americana via vibe, from classic, preppy shirts, suede bomber and varsity jackets to Hawaiian print shirts, hoodies and - best of all - Schott x Supreme custom fit leather flying jackets with tropical lining. There's plenty of retro, sports-inspired apparel too for this Olympics year, with baseball jerseys, athletics style running vests, and American football tees. The caps are out of control this season with the soft camp caps, particularly the suede versions, and the 5 panel map of the world styles doing it best for me. There's the usual discreet to in your face logo-bearing basics and the Kate Moss T-shirt that's been all over the internet for the past week too as well as some great luggage in brilliant colourways - check out the awesome orange nylon utility bag below.

Here's my selection of the best of Supreme SS12 - check out www.supremenewyork.com for the full lookbook and to shop the collection after the drop on 1st March although it'll be available in store from 23rd Feb for everywhere apart from Japan who get it on Feb 25th.
