As much as you refuse to believe it, Christmas is upon us, and if you don’t want to be one of those shoppers wading through a swamp of frenzied gift-hunters come December, then it’s probably time to start thinking about filling festive stockings. If you’ve got friends or family who are hard to buy for – and have a sense of humour – stop by east London label Lazy Oaf’s Christmas pop-up shop.
The brand is characterised by its bright clothing – especially knitwear – accessories and stationery, decorated with wacky pop graphics (there’s a particular penchant for burgers and eyeballs) and print illustrations.
Expect to find specially discounted goods, including homewares, and other off-the-wall stuff in a rainbow of colours. The Pacman cookie cutters are our favourite.
Don’t forget to treat yourself while you’re there.
Open Fri, Nov 25–Sun, Nov 27
