Video Editorial: Be An Original

admin — Thu, 26 Oct 2017 16:13:34 +0000

Over the last two weeks, I’ve had the pleasure of wearing one of the most versatile coats ever created this season. It’s a park with removable hybrid cotton and bomber vest designed by Original Penguin – ideal for London’s somewhat temperamental weather of late!

Here it is style in my favourite way, which is unsurprisingly layered and deconstructed, but the parka also allows another FOUR options – all black almost like a rain mac, solid blue vest or with the white textured cotton vest. At the risk of looking like P Diddy in the 2000s, I’m going to wait to share the all white vest version with you more you (probably on Snapchat)!

The video featured was shot by genius Alex Lord at The Thames Barrier and features shoes by Rick Owens and sunglasses by John Lennon (like actually his estate!). The track is NEO 10Y – Wild West (produced by hii.de)which you can stream anywhere, plus it was used in this film.

Redefining The Mojito with 7UP

Traditionally, the iconic Cuban cocktail widely known as a Mojito consists of five key ingredients with the biggest taste enhancer being spearmint or yerba buena. The taste experts over at 7UP have taken this on board and created a PG friendly version for the summer – the 7UP Mojito Free!

Launching today, the refreshing zest of 7UP has been combined with the crisp taste of mint for a new sugar free take on the infamous drink! I had the pleasure of playing PG cocktail maker this weekend with some fresh lemon, lime and ice – all you need to bring the drink to life. It even tastes great chilled and straight from the bottle!

The British Summer has finally arrived – and let’s be real, Nigel Farage’s departure can only been a good sign for Brexit not actually happening – so cheers to that too! Guilt free and extremely tasty – you can pick up a 600ml bottle of 7UP in all supermarkets, and make sure to join the conversation online with the hashtag #7UPrefreshmint !

Jumpman

So Alex and I have been regularly taking photos for about a year now, but thanks to the purchase of a Canon 750D, we’ve upped the game a little and I guess you could say this is the first, or one of the first examples. Aptly titled Jumpman (thanks Future and Drake), we shot this in a rather incredible location which also allowed us to create some rather fun concept shots for Instagram too.

Style credits include leather biker jacket by Ada + Nik, deconstructed sleeveless hoodie by Jeremy Scott for adidas, shirt by Sandro, boots by Palladium.
