NICHOLAS DEAKINS AW11 'FORREST BOOT'

Nicholas Deakins have taken inspiration from classic outdoor hiking and combined it with influences from urban city landscapes to produce a shoe that not only shows off their superb design qualities but also the integrity of the brand, as they are ever evolving and producing key trends.

The boot boasts metal fastenings for the laces in keeping with the outdoors feel, the boot features the on trend contrast white vibram outsole for added comfort and durability. The Forrest boot comes in 3 colour ways Navy, Camel and Brown. They feature a chambray lining which I must say is a great attention to detail and for £120 your winter footwear is sorted.

MARTINE ROSE X ICON BRAND

This inspiring video captures the perfect marriage between Martine Rose and Icon Brand, it is apparent from the video that Martine Rose has an eye for detail and customisation and draws influences from the 1970's California skate and surf culture, Pair that with Australia's Icon Brand and their ability to create jewellery that conveys raw masculinity and a rock and roll edge, you get without a doubt a collaboration that not only reflects great fashion but also a way of life.

ALBAM X PEDLARS

Albam have announced this Autumn a series of collaborations with one of their favorite homeware stores Pedlars.

Pedlars is a family run business based in the Sottish highlands, run by Charlie and Caroline Gladstone, all Pedlars products have been personally tried and tested ensuring that added importance of quality.

Their colection has been ever evolving over the years to now producing some of the finest European homewares, with such a diverse range from stylish funishings, kitchen ware, games, toys as well as some vintage pieces and specially commisioned limited edition prints, I think every house needs at least one piece of Pedlars to make it a home.

To celebrate the marrige of fashion and homeware Albam will be hosting a pop-up shop which is launching today(13.10.11) in the Pedlars Talbot road shop in west London, which will also feature a selection of key Albam pieces.

The space will also feature Albams favorite pieces from the Pedlars eclectic catalogue that refelct the honesty of the design and the aesthetics which are similar traits to those of Albam which I think partners these two brands together perfectly.

I love the mugs they remind me of camping when I was younger, and the door stop just because its a rock!
