One Green Elephant

One brand I was really impressed with is Japanese brand One Green Elephant. Founded in 2006, OGE have 5 lines; Edition, Sapparel, Tokyo, OG and Genius. They have a signature style of two-tone coloured jeans which they achieve by dying the entire pair one colour (the inside hue) and then painting the outside accent over the top.

I would really love a pair of the 'Leighton' ones or maybe the jade and aqua 'Shilon' design.

Unfortunately, they do not sell in ther UK for now, however they have 9 stores in Germany if you are ever over that way.

Bread + Butter

Last week I attended the 10-year anniversary of the Bread + Butter trade fair in Berlin. It really was incredible.  Held in the Templehof airport in the city centre, B+B boasts an inspiring festival-like atmosphere with live music, bars, and even a Levi's dunking pool in which you could witness enviable Levi's models toss a beach ball amongst themselves-what a dream job. 

This season both guests and Berlin citizens were invited to the after party dubbed 'The Super Nights' which was held in the open air Luna Park and included a stage where a number of acts performed to a crowd as big as 10,000. 

I've included a few snaps of the show I managed to take in the brief moments I had a break from work. 

The Lizard King

Today marks the 40th anniversary of the death of Doors frontman Jim Morrison. To tie in with the anniverary, The Proud Gallery in Camden is hosting a photographic portrait exhibition entitled The Doors of Perception. The exhibition is "an exclusive insight into the beginning, evolution and final years of The Doors and Jim Morrison." Definitely going to pay Camden a visit this summer. 

Cheryl Cole ASOS auction

This week Cheryl Cole launched an auction on online retailer site ASOS allowing people to bid on a small selection of her personal designer garments. The winner of each bid will be the person who bets the lowest unique price. That means that the lowest price that no one else has bid. The money raised will go to The Cheryl Cole Foundation which helps disadvantaged young people in the North East, as well as contributing towards a variety of Prince's Trust projects. I really want this 3.1 Phillip Lim Ikat romper suit, but alas, even if i did win the bid there is no way it would fit me! 
The auction runs from 13th-24th June. Happy Bidding! 

Mister Owl

Yesterday myself, Jen and Louise headed down to Earl's Court for this year's Graduate Fashion Week. The exhibition itself showcased a host of new and innovative young talent, with graphic designer Patrick Schmidt a personal favourite of mine for his old-school sailor themed illustrations. Patrick works under the name Mister Owl and finds inspiration from "salty sea dogs, wise old owls and worn out signs."

Baby Is A Sinner

I introduced Baby Is A Sinner  to everyone at work during our click show-and-tell today. The blog was recommended to me by one of my best friends who works with the blogger Sarah-Louise, and was shortlisted for the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards in 2010. I just love the style of her photo's, in particular The Emerald Coast story. However, it makes me even more depressed to still be in England with no plans of a holiday this summer. Even still, please check it out - definitely one of my favourites at the moment.

Beach Tomato

Introduced to me by a friend of mine, I then recommended fashion and travel site Beach Tomato to every one at Mpdclick and it definitely went down well. 

"Beach tomato's a fashion and travel site that rounds-up the best of the beach – places to go, what to wear, those must pack items – all in one place." 

The site is brought to you by travel brand Black Tomato and includes everything from top destinations, emerging designers, travel tips, and my favourite - 'Beach of the Week'.
