Gift guide #1: Lazy Oaf's happy/sad sweatshirt

Oh dear, there's just no avoiding it, the 'festive season' is almost upon us and with it the pesky task of gift-buying for those fussy people in our lives.

Well, we'll be keeping our eyes peeled so if you have any fashion or beauty gift-buying dilemmas, sling 'em over our way and we'll see if we can magic up a solution. First up is this lazy bastard Lazy Oaf sweatshirt for the sartorial slob on your gift list. Not only is it silly, graphic and yellow but it's also reversible so he can wear it for twice as long before the Miele calls.

(Please do check out all the other goodies on the Lazy Oaf site, but don't get sidetracked into buying up all the stationery like we did. Oops.)

On our radar - the bracelet that thinks it's a watch

Who wears a watch these days? No-one, right? Wrong! We like the witticism of these silly but stylish accessories - what do you think?

Still mourning Michael

We're still in mourning over the death of Michael Jackson. And so are our friends at Lazy Oaf. They created this fab T-shirt to celebrate the London tour - if you'd like one, contact them through the website.

Pimp Your Peepers

It only takes a glimpse of sun to get us busting our our sunnies so the weekend's blaze of rays made us very perky indeed. Jolly good timing then that we found an email pinging into our inbox from Lazy Oaf extolling the virtues of their latest collection of 'funglasses'.

So what will it be? The retro metal-framed numbers with a flash of primary to colour-clash with your turquoise leopard-print Lanvin-alike dress?


Or perhaps the oversized black-and-fluoro ski-visors?

The Bernhard Willhelm-influenced visor shades with detachable visor offer hours of fun (clip the visor on, clip it off, clip it on, clip it off) while being quite sensible too - who needs a hat, when you have a built-in peak on your sunnies? Certainly not us...

Finally, we saved the best til last, the cat glasses which fold into a cat shape when they're not balancing on your face! Too clever (and cheap too at a mere £12)...
