Oh, Married to the MOB. Collection after collection, we're kept on our toes. Kind of. Predictably, MOB continues offering up staple crewneck tees, chockers with pseudo-feminist slogans and some pretty sweet type. But there's always plenty of items that don't follow suit.
This holiday 2010 season* there are still lots of lady power tees and the typography, designs and slogans are better than ever. Highlights in the collection though, are those that focus on silhouettes – this season has certainly focused on sexy over sloppy – like the mesh insert leggings, knit mini-dress and (our favourite) the mesh panelled long-sleeve top that balances casual with saucy perfectly.
It should be noted, too, that the model in the lookbook – shot in Soho – has the world's most symmetrical nose. (She is also a general babe.)

*Which, admittedly, slept on for almost a week. But MOB seems to put out a range a fortnight. Does Leah McSweeny sleep?
