As a long-time lover of all things web and as someone who has worked in the eBiz biz well before Twitter, Facebook and even Goog, I am the first to advocate online shopping. I know that many people not only have issues with online security but when it comes to buying your fashion online, there’s [...]
The rumours we told you about in December were absolutely true. Fashion stars of the online variety – otherwise known as the blogging brigade – will indeed be featured in the March issue of Vogue. Here’s a vid of the shoot. Congrats to my fellow fash geeks.
This is a post I didn’t ever want to write. Lee Alexander McQueen left us today, taking his own life at the age of 40. I first heard about it this morning within minutes of the announcement, on the constant ticker tape that is Twitter, the currency of which is information – happy, sad, mad [...]

One of the most striking so far is one for Francesco Scognamiglio. The black and white photo essay features Scognamiglio’s (try and [...]
