At Colette you can find two new colourways of red and pearl blue for the now famous (infamous?) Lomo Fisheye camera. Giving Urban Outfitters a run for their money with their Lomography range, Colette have also collaborated in a limited edition Diana F which you can find on their website.![]()

Just arriving at Oki-Ni, these Cote et Ciel laptop sleeves, designed to meet the specifications of Macs come in 13 and 15 inch variations and also a size to fit the Macbook Air. At a good price of £29 it's rare to find a laptop sleeve that is actually stylish.
Any concerns you had about purchasing the iPad with the release date here in the UK coming ever closer should be banished with the arrival of the iPad keyboard. Although the touch screen keypad should be enough, when not on the move it's going to make typing a whole lot easier.
Apple have announced that the iPad will become available in Britain on the 28th of May and the 16GB WiFi model shall retail at £429. I was in New York a few weeks ago and played around with one in the Apple shop and it is actually amazing. It fills a space in your tech life which you didn't know existed. It's beautiful and the web browsing on it is better than a laptop. Still, it's far too expensive over here for me to buy. Plus, clothes are a definite priority when it comes to spending money. Anyway, here's a video which finds another use for an iPad.
A portion of the profits from these special edition headphones will help fund the fight against AIDS, so you are not only are you getting some fantastic headphones, but are helping out. They also feature 'Monster ControlTalk™ for iPod® playback control and iPhone™/music phone hands-free calling.'Available from Colette for €249
Is this the most desirable gadget ever? Certainly Apple hopes so. After much speculation and rumour-mongering, Apple has finally unveiled its tablet device, called obviously the iPad.
Much like a giant iPhone, it has a huge touchscreen and a ton of apps running on an updated iPhone operating system. Prices start from a staggeringly affordable $499 (£309) up to $829 (£514) and it will be available to buy in just over 2 months time, with 3G enabled models available within 90 days.
So what do we know about the iPad? Well, quite a lot actually. Apple's announcement today saw the company's main-man Steve Jobs talk the world through its device, revealing a host of great features and the gear behind all the magic.
First up, the iPad's size. It's difficult to ascertain how comfortable the iPad is without touching it, but we do know it's only half an inch thick despite the massive touchscreen and that it is also surprisingly light.
There's 10 hours of battery juice from a single charge even while watching video, as well as a 30-pin dock connector on the side for plugging in add-ons such as a fully mechanical keyboard. The iPad will also sync and back data up with your computer via USB.
Fed up listening to the same old boring radio stations? Then now may be the time to consider replacing your old kitchen/bathroom radio with a new DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting model) so you can tune into stations like Radio1 Extra and Radio6.
Sound quality has improved considerably and there's now more choice of stylish-looking models than ever before. Here we look at some of the latest portable models on the market, though alternatively you can now get DAB-based hi-fi systems and stand alone receivers. For more information about digital radio go to Get Digital Radio.

Must confess I'm not a big fan of bikes or the goddam ridiculous gear cyclists wear while jumping red lights or ignoring zebra crossings. But this retro-chic Lambretta would be enough to get me back on two wheels cruising the streets of Brighton in my Sta-Press trousers rather than Lycra of course.
Brought to you by Fisher Outdoor Leisure, the world's first Lambretta Bicicletta (Li126) is modelled on the Lambretta driven by Jimmy in cult film Quadrophenia and will be launched to the public at the London Cycle Show 2009 at Earls Court, 8-11 October.
Every one of the 500 £599 limited edition models is individually numbered and comes with its own certificate of authenticity. Rather fittingly number 1 of this limited edition model is owned by the self-styled 'modfather' himself, Mr Paul Weller.
Comments Fisher Outdoor CEO Richard Allmark: "We are very excited to be launching the Li126 Lambretta Bicicletta. We are huge fans of Lambretta, and as such have been faithful in our efforts to create a bicycle with style and class, that is in keeping with the brand heritage."
Though the brand is vintage, Lambretta claims the Li126 is a thoroughly modern bicycle incorporating the latest developments in bike technology and design to create a beautifully honed and high-performing 'city cruiser' bike. Further models in the Lambretta Bicicletta range will be announced in Spring 2010.

Headphones are essential to life in London. How else can you survive bus journeys wedged in beside heavy breathing Giant Haystacks or avoid the life history of the mobile phone pest behind you?
Now your headphones can match not only your outfit but also that glorious podcast you're listening to now that music is essentially free. I'm loving these nautical themed blue headphones (a collaboration between Brooklyn scenester Amy Gunther and artist Dennis Mcnett) by WESC who seem to have cornered the market in cute Fisher-Price looking headphones.
In these times of global megabrands and identikit shopping experiences, it's refreshing to discover a site like Manufactum. Featuring a quirky mix of unique, traditionally-made items from gloves and wallets to toiletries and household items, it's a site that's easy to get lost in. A bit like wandering around an undiscovered department store from another era, Manufactum specialises in original, often hand-made products which make perfect gifts. A few favourites from the huge range available: braided leather belts, classic striped matelot tops, silk stripe pyjamas and this gorgeously-packaged Klar's curd soap. A rare pleasure.
All items: Manufactum
Everyone is guilty of it, (well not everyone, I have a colour-coded Google Docs spreadsheet, natch!) but last-minute Christmas shopping can often leave you with gifts that have an air of desperation about them.
These picks have something for every wallet and they all carry an air of "What this? I bought this in November" insouciance. The Habitat lamp is a tasteful nudge for every Ikea junkie, and the watch will help the wearer get the 'Sexy Cab Driver' look which is going to be very important in '09. A 'To Do' tattoo list is useful when compiling all those New Year's resolutions, and all the more useful because they're temporary. Resolution, what resolution?!
I've always been of the opinion that my shoes lack the neon effect of a porn shop window, which is why I nearly shit a brick when I saw this video. These light up neon laces are the focus point of a pair of Solebox x Puma collaborative sneakers, which will hopefully be released soon- perhaps coming a little late for New Rave however there are probably a few hangers on out there, after all American Apparel is still doing business...

"Bored of perfectly folded paper and exquisitely tied ribbon? Fancy adding a more 'personal' touch this year? Then why not have your Christmas presents CrapWrapped™ at Firebox. This exclusive, uniquely shoddy gift wrapping option involves us wrapping your pressies in a slapdash fashion. "
The Daily Mail reports that Firebox.com is paying "20 of its male forklift truck drivers and warehouse assistants to wrap presents as quickly as possible, using ugly brown duct tape and very little care" for their latest 'CrapWrap' service. The service has proved popular with over 500 Firebox customers after only a week of its launch but what do you think?
Is it a bit stereotypical to say that all men are bad at wrapping or do you agree with Geraldine James, buying manager for Christmas gifts at Selfridges, who states that "men are perfectly capable of wrapping presents beautifully. They choose to pretend they can't so they don't have to do it."
Vote 'Yay or Nay' to the service after the jump!
