This is Jessie frickin’ Ware, and here’s her new tune, Running, in which she looks the spit of a Bond Girl. It’s lush. Watch, listen and love. To find out more about Jessie, read EIC’s COOL test she took a few months ago here

UNCOOL: the new (ish) sherbet dip packaging

January 25, 2012

Anyone else feel that this is totally unreasonable? For over 84 years, a sherbet dip was made extra delicious by the shrink wrap paper tubing that got wet and butterz the more times you dipped. This new re-sealable, plastic wrapper may be more practical but it sure takes all the charm out of the ritual and, well, to be honest we’re […]

COOL: best shoe site on the web swears by ‘no sh!t, just shoes’ policy

January 24, 2012

We’ve found a shoe website that makes all others look like temporary holding pages – and none of our relatives own it or nuffing. It’s called Scorpio Shoes and we just want to plug it cos’ it’s really very bloody COOL. The main reason it’s so COOL is because the site seems to have a […]

UNCOOL: Mishkin’s – ‘a kind of jewish deli’ (yeaah but only in name)

They own a handful of the hippest restaurants in London – Polpo, Polpetto, Spuntino and Da Polpo but have Russell Norman and Richard Beatty got it spot-on with their latest venture, Mishkin’s? Looking like a no. Maybe it’s because we love Carnegie‘s in new york more than we love our parents. Maybe it’s because some […]

This is quite literally  – UN-BE-LIE-VAB-LE. Worried as we are about this…cute(?) little girl from Alabama, we can’t stop watching her. Where did she learn to talk like those women on Bridezilla?

Harlem born lyricist, rapper and general rhythm junkie, Azealia Banks is seconds from being signed. Reckon she deserves it? [we do]

COOL: Lucky Chip.The best street burgers in London, if not the world.

Various burger blogs sussed these guys out ages ago, but we just lost our Lucky Chip virginity. And now we’re pregnant. It’s street food, but you still get to sit down at a table with plates and stuff. We went to the burger van in Netil Market, E8. The cheapest burger is a Single With […]

COOL OR UNCOOL? Onepiece all-in-ones

December 5, 2011

We prayed for their existence and finally they’re here – onesies, made by Scandinavian brand Onepiece. Tag-line: ‘jump in’. But… we’re not sure. Maybe it’s the models. Yeah it could be the models. Or the price – around 100. Yeah, expensive! Or perhaps it’s the ivy-league designs that put us off. Our survey leans towards […]
