If you’ve been in search of a new easy, affordable way to sex-up the way your toddler dresses, you are in luck. Following on from their baby stiletto range, American company Heelarious has introduced a “sassy” but affordable new slut boot into the baby market. These high-heeled knee-high boots have been made from patent leather, have silk lining on the inside and have soft heels so your little princess can look like a mini prostitute in complete comfort and safety. They are available for kiddies as young as 0 months, which means you can get them trotting about in a pair pretty much as soon as they pop out.
London Fashion Week: Arutyunov SA: feathers + polkadots + confetti = total gaudy goodness.

When I do have opinions about fashion, they’re more based around my dick than Milan catwalks. Still, I do live in a city with trendy women and share a flat with a trendy woman and, erm, watch a telly which sometimes has trendy women on, so maybe I’ve picked something up. Without further disclaimer, here are the things I think I have seen women enjoy adorning themselves with recently and what I think of them. I might have it wrong, so feel free to take the piss out of me like the punks did to the Floyd. (Btw, the Gwen thing is a joke. I’m not an idiot.)
