Vans x Supreme Cord Toe Authentics


There's another awesome collaboration from elitist urban fashion dons Supreme and all American skate brand Vans on it's way. Loving this spin on the Authentic shoe style featuring the classic monochrome checks and fresh cord toe detail. Drops at Supreme New York, LA, London and online from www.supremenewyork.com on 14th June, and available from Supreme Japan from 16th.

Patricia Field's Online Store Pick - Wonderful Wigs!


Flame haired fashion maven Patricia Field is probably best known for her work as wonder-stylist on Sex & The City, but if you're ever in NYC you must visit her store at 306 Bowery too. It's a veritable treasure trove of gaudiness and glitter, quirky accessories, in your face fashion and above all else, FUN. Every time I go in, it makes me smile.

If you can't get to New York though, her website now ships internationally and these awesome wigs will give you just a tiny taste of the kind of thing on offer. For drag, dress up or just, y'know, cos you feel like it, who wouldn't want a Hello Kitty wig??  Or, for when your Spirithood just isn't enough, how about the pink fluffy rabbit wig with the big ears? Have a look over at www.patriciafield.com

Kate Spade 'Women for Women' Accessories - Conscious Consumer Cool


The Kate Spade girl doesn't just 'live life in colour', she also has a big heart.  Check these zingy new pieces from the New York brand's Hand in Hand collection created as part of its latest campaign - the Women for Women project, giving support to women in war-torn countries across the world. The friendship bracelets in juicy citrus colours with gold Kate Spade logo charms, the shaggy fringe clutch and beaded links necklace are my absolute favourites. For more details about the project or to shop the charity-minded collection go to www.katespade.com

SALE ALERT: NYLA BOUTIQUE 50% OFF DAY TOMORROW


As readers of my Huffington Post UK blog will know, I'm a massive fan of NYLA Boutique, the online fashion and accessories store which specialises in bringing the wares of hot new design talent from New York and LA to the UK and beyond.

Tomorrow, Thursday 27th November, they're having a one day flash sale with 50% off selected labels including the brilliant Tolani scarf collection, and free next day delivery if you order before 4pm.  I can vouch for their beautiful black tissue and satin ribbon packaging which make these perfect gifts so it's worth thinking about stocking up for Christmas presents so you can spend the money you'll save on a party frock nearer the time :)

SPA 1851 - KIEHL'S OPENS ITS FIRST SPA


THE GOOD NEWS: Kiehl's, the all-American apothecary behind internationally recognised hero beauty products like the super moisturiser Creme de Corps body lotion and its incredible Lip Balm #1, has opened its first ever spa.


THE BAD NEWS: There's just the one (so far), and it's in NYC.

Cool, urban treatment room at Kiehl's new Spa 1851
The new Spa 1851, which opened last night, takes inspiration from the brand's heritage roots - including the location keeping to New York's East Side where Kiehl's first neighborhood pharmacy started out 160 years ago - although they have moved from the Lower to the Upper East.  Fancy.

Spa 1851 has services for men as well as women - click for the full treatment menu

Successfully fusing traditional skincare methods and ingredients with cutting edge technologies, as with the brand's products, Spa 1851's provides highly personalised treatments specially developed by Kiehl's innovative pharmacists and herbologists. Offering a range of tempting facials (all of which come with a free chest, neck and head hot oil massage - bliss), body treatments and massages, as well as mens grooming services (including haircuts - check out the sleek, retro chic of the hair salon in the pic above), I have everything crossed that they spread the Spa 1851 love to London very soon.


If you're in or visiting New York, as a massive fan of Kiehl's products - I particularly cannot function without my Ultra Tinted Facial Moisturiser for an everyday glow instead of foundation -  I just know this is going to be amazing.

No post from me today because I'm too busy sulking about not being able to go to this...


Once I get over myself I will endeavour to hunt down Two Dogs and a Boat, the amazing laser majors behind these awesome wooden trainer tags, who will be selling their wares, including personalised etchings at Sneakercon.
