While non of us here at HoH managed to get to V Festival this weekend, Pixie Lott certainly managed it and according to the morning papers today she wore our brand new Chain Suspender tights.
So following on from the massive success of the acronym tees for the HOH AW10 show - House of Holland designed an exclusive mini collection for the glorious Browns. Here are the images that we shot on the HOH roof a few weeks ago - plus a link to the Brown's website so that you can snap them up immediately.
So we're feeling especially reminiscent of our youth i.e nineties and skatery (Henry used to be a skateboarder FYI) so you can imagine how happy we were to see HOH pieces featured in a skater themed shoot on NAAG. Enjoy the pictures whilst we remember our skater crush on Gavin Rossdale of Bush.

oh wait and here's a skateboarding dog for good measure...
....whilst we're banging on about Henry still (urgh we know - we'll get over him eventually *teehee*) have you seen his very handsome portrait in the amazing new issue of i-D? The photographic genius that is Nick Knight has photographed london's key movers and shakers for the september issue and included Henry! here is a little blackberry image of the shot but we urge you to go out and buy that bad-boy yourself. It'll be an issue to treasure for years to come!
Did you see? Henry's tweets got put on the GOING UP section of the Guardian's absolutely genius 'The Measure'. In case you missed it - here is a slightly ropey blackberry image of it!
and in case you've gone totally mental and are still not following Henry on twitter here is a link to help you out.
So here at HOH we are really loving Janelle Monae (a new girl crush in fact) and her song Tightrope. This got us to thinking about Musical hair - and in honour of henry in particular....Musical Quiffs. So here, in celebration of this subject, are a few musicians who were owners of quiffs to rival our dear Henners'.
Let's start with Janelle where all of this began....NEW-QUIFF
Elvis Presley- THE KING-QUIFF
Morrissey of The Smiths - SAD-QUIFF
Rihanna - LADY-QUIFF
Shakin' Stevens - CHRISTMAS-QUIFF
NKOTB - HOT-QUIFF
And last but by no means least - we couldn't do Musical Quiffs without including Jedward (yes we know the musical side is a bit dubious): TWIN-QUIFF
We here at House of Holland wanted to send you a little letter to tell you we love you. Your Barbie-esque stylings, your need for crazy hair choices, your penchant for tight clothing. I mean basically you are the perfect HOH lady. We have attached some of our face videos of yours and we have dared to even suggest what we would love to see you in from the HOH collections!!
Love,
HOH Minajettesxx
Please note that this this is not a 'Stan' kinda letter. Although if you see a quiffed man loitering round corners in your native Queens I think you can probably guess who it will be.....
It's only the delicious sheepskin bombers from our AW10 collection. If only it wasn't about 15 degrees to hot to wear them for more than 10 second intervals today...
We here at HOH are lucky enough to work with the very talented, the nail queen herself - Sophy Robson. She gave us tartan nails, she gave us lace nails and last season we had acronym talons so long and hot any ghetto girl would love to have them!
so we were super excited to see her new work for Elle: Look - she included HOH!!!!
If you want to know more about sophy we advise that you follow her on twitter and find out all her exciting news!

We will be plotting our next nail colour and dancing along to this:

So today Lindsay Lohan goes to jail. (sad face). whilst we're sure she "may or may not" have committed actual crimes, fashion crime wise she has never strayed when in HOH. So as standing in her defence, We the members of the HOH would like to put forward 2 pieces of evidence to the jury.
Case for the jury #1: Lindsay Lohan at the VMAs in 2008 wearing HOH SS09
Case for the jury #2: wearing HOH for Pretty Polly tights
SEE?!?!?
Ok ok - whilst we're not sure our evidence will help Lilo out at the moment - dare we suggest to darling Lilo herself that if she was to wear the following from the HOH AW10 collection she might get out on good (sartorial) behaviour?
Ps if anyone from the The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is reading this - might we suggest it as a very chic alternative to the orange?
So unless you've been hiding under a rock you should know about the phenomenon that is Snooki from Jersey Shore. Basically we LOVE her. She's by far our favourite Guidette (maybe even person). So can you imagine how exciting it was for Henry to receive this: LITERALLY SO JEALOUS!
Well seeing as the rest of us at HOH towers weren't lucky enought to get our own Snooki message we have decided to give each other 'the pouf' using this editorial. We suggest you do the same.
So it's been a fab summer so far for everyone here at HOH towers. Glasto, Lovebox, a couple of trips to random factories. I mean we couldn't ask for anymore...well Henry can and he got to go to the uber cool, super celebrity, sparkly Acne store opening last week in London. The guest list was amazing - Henry got to meet Daphne Guiness (!!!!!!! she was resplendent in spike Gareth - obvs) - the drink flowed and apart from also dying of heat inside it was a very jolly evening indeed. However one of the most exciting products of this evening was the creation of our new favourite word.
Now forget the shoot (shoe/boot), the jegging (jean/legging) and we think the megging (male legging) was pure evil to start with......WE WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO MACE.
Man + Lace = MACE
I mean,can you think of anything better? Here is Henry (withone of our girl crushes Jamie Winstone) in House of Holland SS10 MACE.
