Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you will know that today is the
London 2012 Olympics Opening Ceremony. In true British spirit, I shall be
watching it on TV, drinking a cheeky Pimms and Lemonade from a Union Jack paper
cup (left over from the Jubilee – think I went a little mad for the flag). I’m
not a huge sports fan but I shall be tuning in to see the ceremony and will
watch the Gymnastics (and I probably will be forced to sit through hours of
other events courtesy of my partner)! As expected, many brands have jumped on
the Olympic bandwagon so I decided I would share a few of my favourite sporting
souvenirs with you.
First we have this creatively named Lily Lolo If Eye Were a Winner 3-Piece Eye Shadow Kit – a pretty box adorned with the London
skyline which contains gold, silver and bronze eye colours. I really like Lily
Lolo products and at £10 it’s gold from me!
If you’re like me and prefer eating to athletics, this
tea towel from BOUF is for you. It is part of the Alternative
Athlete range and has a unique 'fry up' version of the usual 5 rings and sports (get
it?!) the slogan ‘Eat for Great Britain’ – it certainly made me chuckle!
For those who like to be patriotic and
practical, this umbrella from Topshop is perfect. The umbrella sports (get it?!) graphics of various London attractions. There is also this cool tshirt which has a map of Victorian London print.
Have you come across any interesting Olympic themed
finds? Will you be watching the Opening Ceremony and events or be trying to
hide from it all?
Cheerio!
