Absolutely












There's nothing like good vodka but when you pair it with my adopted town of London... It's even better! I was walking through Waitrose... as you do, and as I was on my way to the magazine aisle where I spotted the limited edition bottle of Absolut London. The bottle was designed by Jamie Hewlett and looks like something out of a Gorillaz music video or a Quentin Blake sketch. Funnily enough, Hewlett is of Gorillaz fame.

He joins previous designers like Tom Ford, Stella McCartney and Versace who've also done designs for the famous brand. I love when collaborations like this come out, especially when London or England at that have so much to celebrate this year. So whether your celebrating the Jubilee this June or getting ready for the Olympics then pick up one, or two of these bad boys and let the cocktails flow. I'll be doing the same!

Pick one up at your local Waitrose or Harvey Nichols!


What do you guys think of the limited edition bottle?

Corsets and Diet Coke


I absolutely love Diet Coke but I always thought it was in serious need of a makeover! I usually try to stay away from it as much as I can but now that these Jean Paul Gaultier designed bottles have come out, I just can't resist.  I'm such a sucker for anything in a pretty bottle or box as I'm sure most of you are - after all that's marketing for you! I find myself even buying the original glass bottles of Diet Coke from time to time even though they're way over priced than your regular can o' coke. But this, I just couldn't resist. Jean Paul Gaultier has become the new creative director for Diet Coke in Europe and he's come up with these adorable styles that resemble his perfume bottles. Obviously it's going to be a rarity when you see a guy walking down the street with one of these in his hand but I think they're just the cutest! I think I'll be sticking a flower in my empties and putting it on my kitchen table.

What do you guys think?
