Mother's Psychic T-Shirts

If I had £100, and if the number 86 was still available, I'd have bought me one of these. Mother, in collaboration with Steve Coe and I Love Boxie, has produced 100 t-shirts, each with their own personalised message on. You won't know what the message is though, until it arrives. Once you've picked your t-shirt, the psychic Lucinda Clare will do her thing, and find a personalised prediction which is printed on to your tee. Nice. If a bit pricey.

Skittles - GIF Rap the Rainbow

Skittles have launched a Christmas campaign, GIF Rap the Rainbow (boom boom), which trys to tap into the wonder of gifs. I love a good gif, but somehow Skittles fails completely.

Perhaps it's because you can only choose between four gifs and four different tracks (although all very similar), or perhaps it's because they're all totally overstylised and extremely Christmassy. Or perhaps they're just not very funny. The beauty of gifs for me is that they capture a very random yet specific moment, whereas these Skittles gifs are just painfully planned. What do you think?
