Siouxsie Sioux x Supreme
Supreme is going old school punk on hipster skate kids' asses this Spring with their Siouxsie Sioux print pieces, including this classic black t-shirt. I wonder how many of them will know who she is?

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

Jeremy Scott x Adidas Originals AW12 Animal Print & 90s
So, as promised, here's another look at some of the forthcoming Autumn/Winter 2012 Jeremy Scott x Adidas Originals collection. These are some of my absolute favourite pieces from Jezza and great to see that he's sticking with the exaggerated tongue Instinct Hi sneaker silhouettes and reworking them in awesome animal prints and pop colours as well as the classic, tougher all black version.
Puffa jackets are massive for this winter but no-one's doing them quite like our Jeremy! Zebra, leopard, cheetah, pink, purple, mint, gold - he's thrown the lot in and this is what's stuck. I LOVE it and the fact you can match it with your trainers is double bubble.
Putting a fun spin on a proper old school 90s print trend, are these leopard print pieces below, pulling out a vintage Versace vibe but with added attitude and plenty of Mr. Scott's signature street cool. Nice Michael Jackson-esque trainers going on too with the buckle details and silver toe rims and that ladies black quilted leather jacket with the gold safety pins is just soooo Lil' Kim.
The full Jeremy Scott AW12 range for Adidas Originals (minus those controversial My Pet Monster shackle shoes which have now been pulled) will be available in stores and at www.adidas.com from July with these pieces dropping in October 2012.

I Love My MTV - 90s Love for Pull & Bear Retro T-Shirts
The MTV logo is synonymous with 80s and 90s fashion. Since the revolutionary music channel's launch in 1981, the iconic motif has remained pretty much unchanged, although it has had a few little makeovers. Check these awesome ice-cream coloured tees, above, with a variety of classic MTV logos from Pull & Bear menswear (although these particular t-shirts are most definitely unisex). Whilst over in their womenswear department, you'll find these hot little scoop neck vests featuring rockier neon and faded, vintage style zebra MTV logos.
At a totally reasonable £15.99 for the vests and £17.99 for the t-shirts, all available from www.pullandbear.com, I'm going for one of each of the T's to wear with my newly acquired Yo! MTV Raps Puma high tops, below, that I've been thinking about ever since I stupidly neglected to buy them when they first came out a few years back. Thank you eBay! I really do love my MTV.

More Awesome Creepers from Underground Shoes
Regular readers of this and/or my Huffington Post blog will know I'm a huge fan of brothel creepers (now seemingly rebranded as just 'creepers'). Triple sole, single sole, suede, leather, patent, plain, print, I love em all. The best, without a doubt, are by Underground Shoes who have just launched these pale grey suede and pink neon patent creeper wedges, £195 above, exclusively for ASOS.com. Neon AND creepers? Why, Underground, you is really spoiling uz... Their other ASOS.com exclusives include the floral ditsy prints with a single white sole (£95), and all grey suede single soles pictured below (£89). You can also snap up the super cute leopard print singles in yellow suede with a black sole (£95) and a host of other styles too. LOVE <3

Parisian fashion house Kenzo gives Vans' all-American classic Era shoes a Euro makeover for Summer 2012 with a collaboration that looks very new-90s.

Penfield 'Gillman' Fair Isle Puffa Gilet
Loving the multi-coloured fair isle-bordering-on-aztec patterning of this Limited Edition Penfield 'Gillman' body warmer which makes a cosy, throw-on alternative to bulky coats and puffa jackets now the temperatures are starting to rise.

ONEPIECE JUMPSUITS - THE SUPER COOL SLANKET YOU CAN WEAR TO THE SHOPS
These roomy OnePiece onesies are the latest incarnation of the jumpsuit trend, successfully fusing urban fashion with function and supreme comfort.
Perfect for lounging around in or a quick hangover shop run, I cannot get enough of these rad unisex rompers.
You may recognise the Traditional Norwegian print jumpsuits (pink and purple examples shown here) from Channel 4's excellent Dirty Sexy Things as all the models seem to wear them.
Justin Bieber has also been spotted in the Stars and Stripes flag version - but don't let that put you off. One of those and a pair of the Jeremy Scott x ObyO Adidas American Flag winged trainers and that's next year's sweeeet Independence Day outfit sorted - how's that for forward planning?!
Made from regular or lightweight cotton jersey, they come in a range of designs and cost around £130-£140 each. Buy online direct from OnePiece.

UPLIFTING SHOE TREND NEWS: TRIPLE SOLE BROTHEL CREEPERS
![]() |
| Jeffery Campbell 'Stinger' Platform creepers (triple height sole), $185 from NastyGal |
I bought these navy pony skin triple height sole brothel creepers (below) by creeper specialists, Underground Shoes in the mid 1990's and have loved them dearly ever since.
They have served me well over the years (especially when I had navy hair to match) and have even been street style photographed by leading online fashion industry trend forecasters, Trendstop.com, so I am delighted that this trend is making a comeback - for men and women.

| Underground Shoes' round toed, triple sole black suede creepers with D ring lace fastenings, £95 |
An organic progression from flatforms and the stacked Prada espadrille brogues that were everywhere for Spring/Summer, unisex creepers in a range of colours, textures and sole heights were a prominent feature in Autumn/Winter 2011 collections.

| Sandro Alma high heeled wedge creepers with buckle fastening |
These new takes on the heritage rock n roll shoe style provide a super chic, fun and still comfy alternative for those of us who tend to usually live in trainers. They are particularly great with the new cigarette pants and cropped trousers as well as midi skirts and skinny or boyfriend style rolled jeans.

| Special order black leather pointy-toed brothel creepers, £125 from Underground Shoes |
Although the triple soles are my favourites (what can I say? I'm short), oh how I wish I hadn't accidentally thrown out the other shoe, unpairing these wonderful vintage Bronx high heeled creepers from the early 90's :( similar to the beautiful creations over at Sandro.
| Admittedly, they were a bit knackered (and they look better on, honest)... |
