"What?" "When?" "How?!" - some of our reactions to the above news when it plopped into our inboxes earlier. Yes, today, the Business of Fashion reported that Coach and Burberry might be on the verge of joining forces. By which
DSquared2 Become Manchester City’s Official Fashion Partner
Being, as I am, not your standard member of the male species, I know very little about the sport of football. I did, after all, spend a large portion of my childhood avoiding any sort of airborne ball, which, when

Vivienne Westwood Releases Her Diaries In New Book, Get A Life
We've nabbed a copy of Vivienne Westwood's diaries. Procured by legal means, obviously. We did not, of course, rob her bedroom whilst she slept. How dare you. She's a dame. It's probably treason or something. Nope, instead, the last 6 years
