Hello lovelies. Just a quick one!
The boys at Clubline have asked me to cast a knowing eye over the fashion stakes in the football jersey department. What with the World Cup thing creeping up on us, our screens will soon swamped by sweaty men in performance fabrics and, like you, I’m agog at the prospect!
Firstly, what a disappointment the England kit is. They’ve just taken an old polo shirt and logoed it up a bit. Reminds me of the uniform we had to wear at junior school. And white – Nightmare! Even if you’re not one of the dirty boys who likes to roll around in the mud, you’ll be ploughing through absolute packets of vanish.
The Italians always manage to pull it off, in my experience. There’s no sight like a swarthy Neapolitan, stealthily gliding round the back, swathed in a blue Puma soccer shirt. I love Puma football kits; so innovative, so cutting edge, so Gaga.
I can’t leave you without mentioning those lovely boys who do the swoosh thingy. Those Nike football kits are to die for. And you can bet your last pair of designer knickers that there’ll be oodles of teams sporting Nike kits at the World Cup. I wonder if anyone will have that Pin-Stripe number – I love it in black and gold! Black is the new black.
Now I’ve got rush, so we’ll keep this short (I’m off to my Turkish baths for a quick facial). Don’t worry, I’ll be keeping an eye on the pitch to see if anything pops up and makes me squeal with delight. Ta-ta for now.
