Models Get Their Jubilee On with MERC!
We were busy admiring the new Union Jack makeover of the giant plug that lives behind the Merc flagship store in London’s Soho last week, when we spotted this… !
A Diamond Jubilee-inspired photoshoot promoting the best in flag-flying British fashions featuring pieces from Merc’s Spring/Summer 2012 womenswear collection was shot all round Carnaby Street – those cheeky models even pinched our scooter too!

Merc Supports Former Boxing Champ’s All Star Charity Fundraiser
This week Team Merc was proud to be in attendance at The Cathy Brown Cocktail Reception, in London’s West End, helping the former world boxing champion turned lifestyle coach to the stars, at her fundraiser for the national domestic violence charity, Refuge.
It was a glamorous, fun evening where the cocktails and good will were flowing. We rubbed shoulders with Cathy and the likes of Michael Barrymore – pictured above with Merc’s Naomi Ngei and Darren Barker. But best of all, through our special Merc badges and gift vouchers donated to the auction, we helped Cathy raise money for this great charity.

Champions League Final – Chelsea v Bayern Munich – Game On!
After a long and exciting football season, we’re finally at the last stage – this Saturday will see either Chelsea or Bayern Munich crowned Champion of Champions.
In a cruel twist for the West London club, this weekend’s Champions League Final will be played in Germany at Bayern Munich’s own ground, the Allianz Arena.
Both teams look set to field weakened squads due to numerous players being suspended and UEFA dismissing an appeal for these bans to be lifted. Can the Blues summon up the kind of spirit that saw them defeat the mighty Barcelona with only 10 men, to overcome the German team’s home advantage? We can’t wait to find out.

Merc Music Watch - Marina and The Diamonds New Album - Electra Heart
Just as we’d stopped humming the hauntingly catchy ‘I Am Not A Robot’, Marina & The Diamonds are back with a new album – out now.
Based around a character of quirky front woman Marina’s creation – an approach successfully taken by other stars like Plan B (Strickland Banks) and Eminem (Slim Shady) –Electra Heart, the name of the character as well as the album, is packed full of big pop sounds.
Stomping electro pop single, ‘Primadonna’ is the first to be released from this, their second album andis already riding high in the charts, having gone in at number 11giving Marina & The Diamonds their highest charting UK single to date despite the band having to postpone their UK tour and promo work following Marina’s recent treatment for a damaged vocal chord.
We’re loving Marina and her opera-pop vocals, especially the Pet Shop Boys-esque track ‘Homewrecker’ but do you know what we like about her the most? Her middle name is Lambrini…
