Nobler in the Mind

Is there nothing Dan Aykroyd can’t do? In between chasing ghosts and singing the blues, the Hollywood veteran has also found time to develop his own brand of vodka. His award-winning Crystal Head Vodka doesn’t just taste good, the elegant skull-shaped bottle is also handy for impromptu Hamlet productions.

For its German launch, Dan himself will be in Berlin for an exclusive bottle signing on Saturday the 18th of February. If you would like to win a bottle to take along then you know who to email: Berlin&I! Alternatively you can leave a comment below. You must be 18 or over to take part. Berlin&I promotes responsible drinking and home theatre.

Dry Clean Only

Berlin Fashion Week: one day down, a few to go! Let’s take a look at what’s been going on so far at two of the biggest events: The Premium and the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Plus something you probably won’t find on the rails come autumn/winter 2012: an unholy fashion-food fusion.

The Premium Fair, which is taking place in Station Berlin from the 18th to the 20th of January, has played a vital role in shaping the city’s fashion scene since it was set up almost ten years ago by Anita and Norbert Tillmann. Back then, Berlin was a far cry from the “poor but sexy” fashion capital it is today. The Premium is not open to the public but the F95 Store, which is located next door, gives you the opportunity to purchase items from some of the hottest designers out there. Blame, Lamperia and Rita in Palma, the winners of the Premium Young Designers Award, are three of the most recent additions. [READ MORE]
