I remember my mother telling me a rhyme about the weather that went “Whether the weather be cold, whether the weather be hot, whether the weather whatever the weather, whether we like it or not!”.
These past two weeks have been the epitome of changeable; last weekend it was barbies at dawn, now there’s snow in some parts of the country and rain pretty much everywhere. So, whilst your digging out more and more layers, this is just a little reminder that we have something for absolutely every type of weather; from personalised tees and camis for the sunshine to custom fleeces for the cold, towels with your name embroidered on for the pool, and mugs to personalise for you essentially warming hot chocolate. The way it’s going, you’ll need it all at once!!!

One of my personal little pet hates is how whenever anyone becomes famous, lots of random items of clothing begin to appear bearing their name. I’m sure you too noticed the glut of Pippa dresses that have sprung up since the Royal Wedding. There’s also more Gwyneth cardis than you can shake a (cashmere) stick at, and everyone who is ever on the X Factor becomes immortalised in polyester. It does, as I say, drive one more than a bit bonkers.
Anyway, whilst perusing the new Joules catalogue I spotted their men’s underwear range has the eye catching title of the ‘Crown Joules’. Several pairs of niftily printed pants bearing a more than vaguely humorous name and some rather lovely prints. Hurrah and tally ho! I’m particularly loving the pheasants. And at £14.95 a pair, a great for someone to fill your stocking this Christmas!

A poll in the Guardian today put 42% of readers having glimpsed at the topless photos of the Duchess of Cambridge on her hols in France, published this week in a variety of tawdry foreign magazines. Only tawdry foreign ones, mind, as our British press has suddenly come over all noble. Although most papers are printing the picture of the magazine cover with Kate’s boobies all fuzzed out. So only a bit noble.
Poor girl. Everything she wears is scrutinized to within an inch of it’s hem. She takes her clothes off and it gets even worse. Although don’t cha love how Prince William’s come over all manly and feisty. Maybe it’s all a stunt to grab some of the limelight back from Prince Harry and the sister bottom.
But really, if she can’t get her baps out in front of her hubby, where can she get them out? A cyber tee is winging it’s way over to the poor love. One of our personalised ‘keep calm’ slogan ones. Although tbh I think she’s doing a pretty good job already.

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m thinking that poor Prince Harry could do with a t-shirt today. Well, some pants actually. Really, really big ones. Ones that he can pull over his head so that he doesn’t have to see the Queen giving him the evil eye for being caught playing strips billiards at the weekend.
You can see the pictures of the prince butt naked on US website TMZ, but the British media isn’t allowed to show Harry’s arse. Fair enough really, but with the pictures only a click away, it’s a bit pointless.
I feel a bit sorry for the poor chap though. Possibly not the picture you want plastered all across the world when your family are trying so hard to prove that you’ve got over your tricky teenage years. Ah well. If you’ve got it, flaunt it I’d say! Still, here’s some of our very nice personalised cotton boxers for the Royal behind. Shame we’re a few days late!!!

The Paltrow Sooblet!
Much has been made of cleavage over the years. The male variant, the moob has also garnered many a column inch. However the side boob (or ‘soob’ as it shall henceforth be known…..here at least) is a relatively new phenomenon, and needs to be discussed at length and in depth.
Whereas your common or garden clevage is a matter of size, and/or a good bra, the side boob is much more a matter of pertness. A flash of the side boob means you don’t even need a bra, thus are capable of holding yourself up without any extra support, and it’s one of those things that surgery doesn’t really help with; this look screams young and natural, and is a big anti cosmetic intervention backlash.
There have been a glut of celeb soobs recently; Gwyneth Paltrow totally rocked the look at the Met Ball recently, LiLo’s been soobing ever since I can remember, and J-Lo balances out her famous behind with regular glimpses of her side cleavage. Even the fashion pack have got in on the act with Yves Saint Laurent preparing to dazzle with a host of soobity next season.
Whether or not you feel able to flash a little side silhouette really depends on your own personal confidence, although it’s not a look for the faint hearted. Honestly I don’t think anyone will think any worse of you if you keep it under wraps….however if you’re game, then check out this vest from ASOS. It will allow you to flash the most discreet glimpse of your soob, without having to go the whole hog!

David Beckham’s new collection for Swedish collaborating giants H&M is quite literally a load of pants. With a few t-shirts and vests thrown in. But to be honest, all that anyone wants to see is DB in his smalls, so he’s onto a winner.
Beckham’s capsule range is a 9 piece sporty mixture of vests, pants, jogging bottoms and t-shirts, all closely fitting soft cotton bodywear. And just to ensure that it flies off the shelves, it is modelled by the man himself.
“I hope H&M’s male customers are as excited as I am” Beckham is quoted as saying. This makes me laugh very quietly with squeaky undertones (none of this LOL-ing for me). Surely it is the female customers who will be clustered around the boxes of Mr Victoria, highly, but highly excited at the vision before them.
The range debuts in stores on February 2nd. I predict a riot!

Thong Song!
Vajazzling, the art of adorning the under belly button nether region with shiny stick on rhinestones is soaring in popularity of late. This due in no small part to Amy from the hit TV show TOWIE and her dazzling on screen vajazzling. DIY home kits are the popular secret santa gift of choice amongst women and there is a surge in demand for the embellishment in beauty salons up and down the country.
I’m not sure about stick on kits. Unless you’re careful, you might end up with most of your vajazzle in the hoover as all the little bits fall off into the carpet. Floor, I mean. Ooooo, the possibilities for pain and injury are too great to contemplate. So why not add a little mystique instead. A personalised thong hinting at the vajazzling possibilities is surely more user friendly. Surely?

What to wear to the office Christmas party is always a bit of a dilemma. And with wallets feeling the festive squeeze, splashing out on a new outfit could be a bit of a stretch. The thing to do is to wheel out the little black dress (the sparklier the better) and invest in a pair of printed tights.
Tights have undergone a bit of a rebirth in the last few seasons. There are some absolutely amazing prints around and you don’t have to look very far. Gone are the days of think or sheer; now there’s tiger stripes, spots, and swirls in every imaginable hue.
For great luxury, and the feeling that you’ve glammed it up a bit (after all, it is Christmas) Net-a-Porter does a fabulous range of hosiery which will lift any outfit and make you feel at least half a million dollars. Or perennial underwear fave Marks and Spencer is another option. I love these tights by Walford, a nice little bit of tiger chic to take you into the party season!

Silvery T-shirt!
Silver has long been used for it’s anti-bacterial properties. Long before the advent of the dishwasher and Powerful Kitchen Spray Which Makes Nose Itch, people would eat with silver knives and forks (well they did if they could afford it) and whether they liked it or not, they were being anti-bacterialised with each mouthful.
So it’s not a massive surprise that silver is making a comeback, this time in the form of fabric which is impregnated with tiny silver particles. The bacteria that would otherwise breed and make a honk are annihilated and the t-shirt stays clean and odourless. This is a wonderful idea, and a great way to combat the effects of lengthy t-shirt wearing sessions. From about £20 from Silvermax, so a great price for what could be a revolutionary tee!
