Slutty Cheff's hot new book comes out tomorrow complete with "slutty specials" for a few London restaurants, the "Lipotle" by Chipotle x Wonderskin is BACK, Lucy Sparrow's next project, and more!
Famous felt artist Lucy Sparrow, aka Sew Your Soul, will unveil her next installation in London this summer in the form of a classic British fish & chip shop at the Lyndsey Ingram Gallery from August 1st - September 14th, Wed-Sun, 11am-4pm. As is typical of Sparrow’s installations, The Bourdon Street Chippy will be fully immersive—fun you can feel or rather, felt. . . (lolz ok I know that was a bad one).
I have one of her pieces gifted to me by a wonderful friend but unfortunately I’ve not yet managed to make it to one of her installations. There was one in New York a while back when I was stupidly in town but didn’t find out about it until after I left. Still my dream to go so if any of you do, PLZ send photos! :)
*New book alert* And this one comes just in time for your hot (& bothered) summer reads list! Tart: Misadventures of an Anonymous Chef by Slutty Cheff releases tomorrow (July 17) for the UK and EU and on August 8th for the U.S.— anddd you can pre-order it HERE.
On that same note, ATTENTION LONDON readers - several of your local restaurants are offering “slutty specials” this week only in honor of tart’s release. Check out the schedule below or check Slutty Cheff’s IG for more updates.
Let me just say, I’m super stoked for my copy — and with chapters like “Eating Kebabs in London”, “Going Down” and “Michelin Star Pussy Juice”, it sounds like we’re in for a sticky read indeed.
Chipotle x Wonderskin’s “Lipotle” is BACK by popular demand for one final drop! Like your favorite dip. . . except for your lip(s) lolz. When it was originally released last year, it was in honor of National Avocado Day but as it proved to be a fan favorite, the two brands brought it back for a final and exclusive run this year, launching yesterday (July 15th). This lip color goes on green (instead of the classic wonderskin blue) and after 15-30 seconds, you can gently wipe it off to reveal the real (and more appetizing) pinkish color underneath. Get it HERE before it supposedly sells out for good!
KidSuper x Papa Johns — idk how I missed this PFW collab but I did. In short, Papa Johns came up with a new croissant pizza and tapped Colm Dillane to design a limited edition hot bag to hold said pizzas to promote it. If you zoom in VERYYYY closely, you’ll see that there’s a tiny croissant attached to the zipper. The bag debuted on the runway at the Kidsuper show on June 28th. No idea how many were available or even if they were, but voilà.
and, ICMYI
Unfortunately this event has passed but in case you missed it, Sweetgreen teamed up with Morgenstern’s for a Roasted Corn Ice Cream collab this past Saturday at their Dumbo location. -insert corn pun here-
That’s it for this week, folks! xx

Years ago I went to Lucy’s corner shop off the Columbia road. Bought myself a jar of marmite and packet of digestives.
