Odd: Mario Balotelli

Mario Balotelli
Now how will this footballer even make it to a fashion blog you ask?
well he tried to anyway...

Probably taken inspiration from the penguin from Wallice&Gromit's , Mario Balotelli who was previously spotted with green and orange high tops with a neon-like blue quilted jacket, was found wearing a rather interesting hat.
Harvey Nichols-where the city's footballers are known to shop, denied selling this glove header number.
Perhaps it was from a Christmas market?

Well, a London based hand-knitting website picked up on this soon enough and offered to maker versions of this hat in 24 different colours!If anyone's interested to conform to this trend, you can get this hat from
www.granniesinc.co.uk


Looking forward to what else this guy would come up with.

Revival: Russian-esque Fur Hats

Winter is nearing and the fashionistas are forecasting, so what's hot(in the context of cold;p) now?


RUSSIAN STYLE FUR HATS- The Ushanka!

Lily Allen all warm in 2009



They're actually called Ushanka's which is an easier way to address this hat to be honest but apparently it's not commonly used in the mainstream fashion world, so we shall conform to that for this post.

I've noticed how style is being more comfort friendly these days, which is good because there is no point being pretentious especially when we were faced with one of the harshest winters in England. The answer to a comfy stylish hat is the traditional Russian fur hat, with the actual designer ones that consists of Mink fur which we have no qualms about, just that faux fur is just as comfortable for us.

A lot of high street stores are home to these faux fur Russian inspired hats after predicting this come back.

It's great that being reasonable is slowly infusing itself with style because these hats keep you warm and cosy while you make a statement, now that is really all you need while waiting for a bus out in the cold.

Check out the President of Argentina rocking this look after receiving the hat as a gift from the President of Russia!



Get your hands on them & prepare yourself for winter!
