Clio Peppiatt SS16

"Kiss The Future" by South London womenswear designer Clio Peppiatt is a playful and vibrant SS16 collection, brushed generously with elements of sci-fi and 70s disco. Space-themed motifs and faux fur were combined with snakeskin and leopard prints, where against a backdrop of metallic streamers, retro TVs, glowing cubes and checkerboard flooring, it were as if the models were players in a retro, future-themed arcade game.

Christmas in Kennington

Christmas is a funny time of the year. We hang up an obscene amount of bright lights and garish decorations, we listen to cheesy music we wouldn't dare listen to any other time of the year, we throw out all our inhibitions when it comes to food, and we feel inclined to wear knitwear bearing reindeers and snowflakes. But hey, I guess that's what makes Christmas so ridiculously enjoyable.

The festive spirit is in full swing in my new London home. I'm afraid my friends and I don't have the pleasure of living behind one of the quaint, wreath covered doors of historic Cleaver Square, but we do have a Christmas tree that turns the living room into an instant rave, and a delicious Christmas dinner in the making, the thought of which is already making me salivate.
