Going Up, Going Down: Our Weekly Roundup Of The Best And The Worst

This week’s offering of pop culture’s goodies and baddies.

UP: Stranger Mania

Stranger Things is back, baby! Will Eleven return? Who will Sadie Sink be playing? Is it legit to fork out for that Louis Vuitton X Stranger Things fan T-shirt? Probably not, right… *removes from cart*

UP: Podcasting

Guilt-free, hands-free, photoshop-free? Yes, please. And we have a weekly feature of the best ones too. Hurrah.

UP: Best Cause For The Breast Cause 

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, join the fight and treat yo’self by supporting one of the many beauty brands raising money for breast cancer research.

UP: Fashion Down Under 

Brand new Aussie label I.AM.GIA is turning fashion heads with an army of supermodel IT girls already making it a firm favourite. We want it all.

DOWN: Avoca-don’t 

Spanish fruit company, Isla Bonita, obviously didn’t get the ‘if it’s not broken…’ memo, so here we are with diet avocados – “all the Instagrammability, only 30 percent of the fat.” We’ll be mashing up the full-fat versions and spreading atop a thick slice a’ white toast – so sue us!

DOWN: RnB n’ STDs…

Usher has found himself in the midst of an awkwardly public genital herpes lawsuit –  we’ll never be able to sing along to ‘let it burn, let it burn’ again…

DOWN: Denim Wedgies

Thong jeans, aka the fashion industry’s latest prank, need we say more?

DOWN: Fur-get it!

Gucci’s Marco Bizzari has given the fur industry the kiss of death, and thousands of furry friends the kiss of life.

Did we miss anything? Are you dying for Stranger Things to face the ruthless Netflix chopping (and dropping) block? Or, are you secretly salivating over those low-fat avos? Leave us a comment below, and join us back here next week for the next slew of trends to face FIB judgement day.
