Happy Holidays from Self Service UK!

December 20, 2012 by Self Service UK

As another year is coming to an end, we look forward to 2013… … and of course, Christmas! Don’t worry, the world won’t be ending on 21st December 2012 which also happens to be the darkest day of the year. Instead, the cycle of the Mayan calendar will start again and the age will move from the masculine into the feminine (apparently this is a bit like an Armageddon scenario for some). Like every year, we will be showing off […]

Adieu, mon amour…

December 19, 2012 by Self Service UK

Yesterday, our beloved friend Jetsan aka Jetsionion aka Andy Warhol aka Mr Wah Wah went back to his family after having been part of the tight-knit circle of doggies at the Self Service showroom for a year and a half. We shared his obsession for coffee, yummy lunch and über cool hair-dos and will miss his gorgeous eyes and cheerful character. Fellow Tibetan Terriers Bullet and Whisper and the rest of the Self Service UK team send all their love […]

The Model for Electro Pop

December 18, 2012 by Self Service UK

Hailed as the pioneers of electronic music, Kraftwerk are set to perform live at Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall in February 2013. Tickets were sold out in under a day, causing a chaos at Tate that left the museum’s website crashed almost immediately after online booking went live. Ironically, this did not match the harmony between man and machine that the German group has been promoting since its formation in 1970. At a time when fellow progressive musicians were playing rock […]

SICK GIRL, SPICE GIRL

December 13, 2012 by Self Service UK

Last decade they were hailed as the era of bad taste, now they are the epitome of cool: the 90s are here to stay (least until the fashion cycle moves on to the Naughties). While on one end of the spectrum fashionistas are obsessing about grunge, the 90s also saw the rise of Girl Power, chiefly led by the Spice Girls whose garish style influenced young women well beyond the borders of Cool Britannia. Yet the era was also a […]

Dreaming as You Travel: LNA Resort 2012

December 11, 2012 by Self Service UK

Travelling demands a playlist that allows for dreaming. Whether you’re catching a train or ‘time travelling’ from the comfort of your bedroom, sit back and turn up the volume! Childhood living is easy to do The things you wanted, I bought them for you Graceless lady, you know who I am You know I can’t let you slide through my hands Wild horses couldn’t drag me away Wild, wild horses couldn’t drag me away A song about being a million […]

Every Cloud Has A Silver Lining

December 7, 2012 by Self Service UK

We are obsessed with Aimee Song (pronounced like a short Ah-mee) of fashion blog Song of Style. The Californian beauty queen, who is also an interior designer, has been snapped in her silver metallic Keepsake Pretty Young Things Skirt several times. Boldly paired with a denim shirt, a vintage belt and Giuseppe Zanotti lace scallop heels, she strutted off the skirt whilst visiting the Big Apple for New York Fashion Week Spring Summer 2013 in September. During a tour of her LA apartment […]

‘It’s all happening!’

December 4, 2012 by Self Service UK

Penny Lane’s mantra in the 2000 film Almost Famous by Cameron Crowe reminds us to live in the present and appreciate all that is happening around us right now. Yet each moment may also hold things future and present too. In fashion, inspiration is sought from the past, while simultaneously looking towards the future when forecasting trends. Finders Keepers combine all of these elements in their ‘The Bright Side’ Resort 2012 collection. Capturing a unique gothic aesthetic while holding on […]
