Stalked: The House Of Peroni
15 July 2014
Welcome to House of Peroni, an exclusive London establishment in which you walk in feeling British, from the streets of London and walk out shouting 'Ciao Bella' to everyone you see! House of Peroni doesn't believe in guest lists and membership fees, but instead it opens its doors to all passers by, to educate them in things beautifully Italian, with rooms that ooze with culture from every nook and cranny.
I popped in to Stalk the head barman and master of The House cocktails, Fede. Before I started he thrust a Negroni (a classically italian cocktail) into my hand, so, there I was outside The House with camera in one hand and Negroni in the other, if only every shoot could be like that!!!
What do you do and what's the coolest thing about your job?
I am a Mixologist and coffee
shop owner (the Coppa Cafe in Dublin). For the month of May I was the head
Mixologist at The House of Peroni in Holborn where I designed a menu of 9
different Peroni Nastro Azzurro infused cocktails. The coolest thing about my job
is having the chance to serve people and try to improve their day and make them
happier. I also love playing with ingredients.
June Snow Stalking, Evelyn Yard Opening Party
9 July 2014
One of my favourite places to stalk are
private views and gallery openings. My latest arty stalking sess was at the
opening of Evelyn Yard, dubbed one of London’s hottest new galleries by Dazed & Confused Digital.
At the debut show, June Snow; a collection
of predominantly white works by some of the world’s hottest new artists. I caught up with one
of the Directors about the concept behind the gallery, which artists to keep an eye
on and future plans for the space.
Why did you decide to open Evelyn Yard?
Evelyn is a platform to showcase the work
of young emerging artists who are influenced by the ‘here and now’ and the
digital age.
Stalked: Rita, Founder and Designer. Sun Sea And Honey
7 July 2014
IT'S BIKINI TIME KIDS!
At last the summer has properly arrived and it's the perfect excuse to chuck out any slightly jaded swimwear in favour of a sparkling new little number. I've been rather obsessed with this said swimwear hunt prior to my holiday next week and stumbled across this very cool brand Sun, Sea & Honey. I caught up with the founder and designer of the brand to quiz her about her holiday essentials.
What do you do and why do you love your job?
I'm a fashion designer and founder of the swimwear line: Sun Sand & Honey. I'm in love with my job because I'm doing something that I've always wanted to do but, for many years, other things and a different career got on the way. I absolutely love the creative side of being a designer because it's a 24/7 job. You're always thinking about new ideas, and looking for inspirations. Your mind never rests.
Stalked: Benjamin Canares, Fashion Assistant
2 July 2014
There’s no doubt that Benjamin for 3 years
has been doing one of the most sought after jobs in the fashion industry.
Shoots in glamorous locations, getting up close and personal with some of the
worlds greatest designers on a daily basis and then of course there’s the
runway shows! Yep, it’s Devil Wears Prada kind of thing, but luckily for him he's not assisting a Miranda type, he assists the
lovely and talented Cathy Kasterine, Fashion Director at Large of Harper's Bazaar.
Ben, what do you love about your job?
A couple of the many reasons I love my job
is that I get to meet the most fascinating and inspiring people. Everyday I
learn something new so life is never boring.
So Hot Right Now: POOL SLIDES
30 June 2014
It's officially the summer my dear stalkers and it's also time to get out those sandals, but you can leave those flip flops in the cupboard, because this summer it's time to embrace the ugly but rather fabulous pool slides! This is another item like the UGG boot that has the ability to divide the fashion pack into lovers and haters and will conjure up all kinds of remarks such as; “Remind me to give my dad a ring and tell him how on-trend he is.” !!
I shot the gorgeous Pandora Sykes wearing her slides (which she totally rocks) that she bought a while back, trust our PS to be ahead of the trends!!
Garance Dore, my favourite style and blogging queen, has even done their family tree!!
"1988: I was born.
"1988: I was born.
2000: I played soccer, and I couldn’t play
soccer without a pair of these slides.
2001: I quit soccer. But I wore my slides to
summer camp. And everywhere. With everything. Even with socks.
2003: I part ways with my slides (amicably) and
probably because I traded them for bejeweled flip flops.
2006: There is a photo of Mark Zuckerberg in
the New
York Times wearing the velcro version of this slide.
2010: The slide appears throughout the movie, The
Social Network.
June 2013: The slides appear in a resort look book. Chloé does
their take on the slide for resort.
October 2013: Spotted the slides in an editorial for
Interview (on Karlie Kloss, no less). Our Adilettes are everywhere as a more
radical alternative to the already old news Birkenstock.
Today: The Adidas flagship in SoHo only has the
slides available in a men’s size 11. They have been out of stock for weeks,
guys!'
(Garance Dore)
Here are some of my current slides crushes!
1. Chloe Slides 2. Nike Benassi Swoosh Slides (the originals!!) 3. Jeremy Scott Gel Wing Slides
Which are you're favourites?
