Pimp my Pump






Lazy Oaf's off-the-wall designer shoes are inventive one-offs all using the classic plimsol as a canvas.
French artist Manu Angot and our own Seth Brau, the collection includes works by such up-and-coming talents as
Kate Moross, Brennan & Burch
and PeskimoWe like them all, but Shevonne Bliss' trompe l'oeil version (pictured left) are pretty irresistible for chasing away those endless-winter blues.
Each pair is one-of-a-kind and made using materials that aren't necessarily street-safe, which means they might be more functional as sculptures than as footwear. They start at £35 from Lazy Oaf.

Tip
Burnish your scissorsWhen your scissor blades get sticky or grimy, don't use water to wash them off; you're far more likely to rust the fastener that holds the blades together -- or the blades themselves -- than get them clean. Instead, wipe down the blades with a cloth dipped in full-strength white vinegar, and then dry it off with a rag or dish towel.
