			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Last Stand will be actor Arnold Schwarznegger’s first lead role since Terminator 3: the rise of the machines. Due for release on 18 January 2013, the excitement has been building and this November sees Arnie featured on the cover of Empire magazine, in Polaroid <a href="Polaroid http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/mens/aviators/quay-4213x-197-p.html">Take-off sunglasses</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/arnie-wears-take-off2.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4861 alignright" title="Arnold Schwarzenegger in Polaroid Take-off 4213X" src="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/arnie-wears-take-off2.jpg" alt="Arnold Schwarzenegger in Polaroid Take-off 4213X" width="384" height="512" /></a></p>

<p>In this cover shot, Schwarznegger is in character as Ray Jones, the sheriff of a quiet US border town he plays in the film. Dressed in a classic brown leather jacket with crisp white shirt, the look is completed with sheriff’s badge and Polaroid aviator sunglasses, for an imposing front page image to this best-selling film magazine.</p>
<p>Directed by Kim Ji-woon, best known for ‘I Saw the Devil’, the <a href="http://www.schwarzenegger.com/film/post/the-last-stand-official-trailer" target="_blank">official trailer</a> boasts all the action that films with Arnie are known for, with the quick-fire magic that Kim sprinkles liberally throughout his films. As sheriff, Ray Jones, Arnie would rather not get involved but becomes drawn in to taking a stand against an escaped drugs cartel leader who’s making a break for the Mexican border, with a hostage in tow.</p>
<p>From his early days as a body builder to his Hollywood career and role as Governor of California, Arnie has always been driven to excel. When it comes to films he once remarked, “you can scream at me, call me for a shoot at midnight, keep me waiting for hours &#8211; as long as what ends up on the screen is perfect.&#8221;</p>
<p>If the trailer is anything to go by, this film marks a return to Schwartznegger’s best with all the excitement, humour and drama of a great action-adventure film.</p>

<p>While he may be able to pull off an inscrutible poker face, <a href="http://www.tmaw.co.uk/neilp.html" target="_blank">Neil</a> also likes an open book. Having read many, many scripts he is discerning about his literature and has collected rare books for 30 years, specialising in nineteenth and twentieth century first edition books.</p>

With lots to choose from, look for the ones that work for your body shape and lifestyle…</p>
<p><strong>Leather and black</strong><br />
You can’t go wrong with black this autumn, and wear it in leather and you will be bang on trend! Try a leather dress, skirt, top or trousers – you’ll find lots of options on the high street. Another great look for the Christmas Party season is to invest in a little black dress with some lace detail.</p>
<p><strong>The power of peplum</strong><br />
The peplum is great for hiding those lumps and bumps and creates a wonderful feminine shape to be proud of. Whether it’s a dress or a top experiment with a lace or leather option – and don’t forget to accessorise with a fabulous pair of high heels!</p>
<p><strong>Military wear</strong><br />
Khaki, greens and greys can be found in abundance on the high street for autumn winter. The military trend is back with choices from oversized coats to fitted jackets and dresses. Don’t forget your belt to cinch in the waist!</p>
<p><strong>Opulent colours</strong><br />
Reds and purples are a definite hit this autumn, and are ideal for an evening out with friends and the perfect winter wear. Or for something brighter try hot pink – a key colour for autumn winter – and looks great with a pair of dark denim skinny jeans.</p>
<p><strong>Winter whites</strong><br />
A crisp white collared shirt will freshen up any outfit this winter. Wear under a dress for work, or under a chunky knit for weekend wear with your jeans and knee high boots.</p>
<p><strong>Buttoned up collars</strong><br />
Ladies, wear your blouses buttoned up this season. In bright or muted shades this look is the new lady like chic. Add a statement necklace for interest and match with a pair of tapered trousers or a pencil skirt for both office and an evening out.</p>
<p><strong>Heritage</strong><br />
Country classics always have their place – think Downton Abbey! Plaid and corduroy fabrics in autumnal hues in traditional country style, tailoring together with chunky knits and leather loafers or boots, are a stylish weekend option for this wet and windy British weather.</p>
<p><strong>Accessorising is key</strong><br />
The olympics bought us gold, silver and bronze and the metallic inspiration continues into autumn winter with lots of shimmer details for bags, jewellery and shoes. Sequinned tops, trousers or even flats are great for giving you daytime sparkle as well as taking you into evening wear in style. Studs are very on trend for the season – whether they are on handbags, dresses or gloves! Belts are always one of our favourite ways of finishing off an outfit – so make sure you invest in one that works for your body shape. And don’t forget to stow a pair of <a href="Link http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/womens/innocence.html">Polaroid Innocence sunnies</a> in your handbag to complement your look on those bright winter days.</p>
<div id="attachment_4896" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 542px"><a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Innocence-F8202C.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4896 " title="Polaroid Innocence F8202C, a versatile style for Autumn/Winter" src="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Innocence-F8202C.jpg" alt="Polaroid Innocence F8202C, a versatile style for Autumn/Winter" width="532" height="255" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Polaroid Innocence F8202C, a versatile style for Autumn/Winter</p></div>

&nbsp;<br />
The stars have been filming Series 2 on location in Guadeloupe and we can’t wait to see the new series in January.

The paradise island’s policeman, Dwayne Myers is played by <a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/2012/09/danny-john-jules-wears-polaroid-sunglasses-in-paradise/">Danny John-Jules</a> and his character is as laid back as Poole is up-tight.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Danny spoke to us from the film set in Guadeloupe to praise Ben on his work:</p>
<p>“Congratulations to Ben Miller on finishing the gruelling filming schedule of &#8216;Death In Paradise 2&#8242;. Working in temperatures of up to 100 degrees has a devastating effect when you are wearing a suit and tie all day.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
So when work is done he slips into something cooler to keep the sun at bay&#8230;. Polaroids.</p>
<p>Well done mate and hope to see you for Series 3”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As the sun dips towards the horizon during the winter, it pays to be prepared with <a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/sports/driving.html">Polaroid sunglasses for safer driving</a>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div id="attachment_4540" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 549px"><a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Take-off-04213L.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4540 " title="Polaroid Take-off 4213L sunglasses are perfect for driving." src="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Take-off-04213L.jpg" alt="Polaroid Take-off 4213L sunglasses are perfect for driving." width="539" height="283" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Polaroid Take-off 4213L sunglasses are perfect for driving.</p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now the sun is low in the sky during the winter months the sun visor in your car is not always effective at blocking bright sunlight. Quite simply low angled sun often misses the visor altogether. With water on the roads and ice or snow, light is often reflected off the surface as glare, which and can dazzle you as you drive. Everyday driving situations can become difficult and potentially hazardous when low winter sun impairs your ability to see clearly.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
If you keep Polaroid sunglasses, our Clip-ons or <a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/suncovers.html">Polaroid Suncovers</a> in the car, then you’ll always be prepared when low sun becomes an issue. In an <a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/why-polaroid/driving-safety.html">independent study</a>, drivers wearing polarized sunglasses reacted up to 40% quicker than drivers with ordinary non-polarized sunglasses. Because all Polaroid sunglasses are polarized you can rely on their polarized lenses to help cut glare so that you can see clearly and respond swiftly.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
And when conditions threaten to be more extreme with the threat of snow and ice, keep your mobile phone fully charged and the kit you need in the car ready for emergencies. It’s the sort of things you hope you’ll never need but you could be very grateful you packed from a shovel and tow rope to Wellington boots, de-icing kit, torch and hazard warning triangle. And should you get stuck for a time, then its worth having a blanket, warm coat and food and drink in the car. Accident prevention organisation <a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/2012/03/driving-sunglasses-and-road-safety/">RoSPA</a> has put together some <a href="http://www.rospa.com/roadsafety/adviceandinformation/driving/winter-driving-tips.aspx#c" target="_blank">helpful tips for safe winter driving</a>.</p>

<p>Polaroid also supplied the team with <a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/mens/sports/pro.html">Polaroid Pro P7221B</a> sunglasses with grey, amber and clear interchangeable lenses so they could use the clear lenses through the night on the Milan ride, letting in maximum light but keeping out grit and bugs.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In the event the race was unexpectedly changed from the usual night ride to a daytime race due to concerns from course officials about safety. These sunglasses will now be put through their paces during the dark evenings on training rides and for the Brooklyn leg of the race.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>He did it! Alex Flynn completed a 3,500 mile Trans-American challenge. This calls for celebration because 40 year old Alex has Parkinson’s Disease which makes him an unlikely athlete. The One Show featured his inspirational story. <a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/mens/sports.html">Polaroid</a> has provided Alex with sports sunglasses to protect his eyes from grit, UV and glare as he takes on some <a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/2012/01/runner-alex-flynn-featured-in-running-fitness-magazine-wearing-his-polaroids">incredible challenges</a> around the world. Alex was a guest on the BBC show alongside Monty Python comedian and adventurer Michael Palin and TV presenter Alexander Armstrong, on the One</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-4825" title="BBC’s One Show features Alex Flynn (right) with Alexander Armstrong and Michael Pali" src="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/one_show.jpg" alt="BBC’s One Show features Alex Flynn (right) with Alexander Armstrong and Michael Pali" width="401" height="311" /></a>The One Show featured Alex’s incredible story. It showed how he set out on this Trans-American quest in a bid to challenge the perceptions of neurological diseases. This feat was part of the overall challenge he has set himself to race 10,000,000 metres and raise £1million to fund research into Parkinson’s disease.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Alex crossed America cycling, running, rowing or kayaking and swimming, starting out in Santa Monica, California and finishing in New York City. That meant 3,563 miles including running through <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/TransUSA2012" target="_blank">Death Valley </a>in temperatures of 50 degrees, kayaking across the vast expanse of Lake Eerie and swimming to the statue of Liberty. It would be hard for anyone but for someone who is prone to uncontrollable shakes like Alex, it tested his mental and physical strength to the limits. Michael Palin’s father suffered from Parkinson’s Disease and he applauded the message of hope that Alex provided.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Polaroid has been following Alex’s journey for the last few years and we are delighted to congratulate him on this latest success. You can find out more about Alex at <a href="http://www.alexflynn.co.uk" target="_blank">www.alexflynn.co.uk</a> and join his support group on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/10MillionMetres" target="_blank">Facebook</a>.</p>

<p>Congratulations to singer, Angel, who has been shortlisted as Best Newcomer in the prestigious <a href="http://mobo.com/news-blogs/mobo-awards-2012-nominees-shortlist-revealed" target="_blank">MOBO Awards</a> alongside the likes of AlunaGeorge and Rita Ora.

Held on 3 November the MOBOs take place at the Echo Arena Liverpool and were created by Kanya King MBE to bring black music and culture into the mainstream. The MOBOs have become an annual highlight for music lovers and are a great platform for recognising talent. This November is the 17th year of the MOBO Awards.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With a string of TV hits to his name, Charley Boorman is a modern-day adventurer, travel writer and presenter who is disarmingly entertaining even when faced with situations that would test the average saint. When on location, filming his latest challenge <a href="http://www.bigearth.com/extremefrontiers/south-africa/" target="_blank">‘Charley Boorman&#8217;s South African Adventure’</a> Charley wore <a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/mens/xoor/explorer.html">Polaroid aviator sunglasses</a> for glare and UV protection. The series airs on Channel 5, early 2013, following the success of last year’s Extreme Frontiers TV show. So if you want to see Charley parajetting, shark-diving and abseiling down Table Mountain, you won’t be disappointed.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div id="attachment_4779" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 624px"><a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/charlie_b.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4779" title="Charley Boorman in Polaroid Explorer X4209A" src="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/charlie_b.jpg" alt="Charley Boorman in Polaroid Explorer X4209A" width="614" height="461" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Charley Boorman in Polaroid Explorer X4209A</p></div>

<p>As he’s such a nice bloke he’s even sent us a message.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Charley Boorman&#8217;s South African Adventure is the latest in a series of great TV adventures we can all share with Charley from the comfort of our armchairs.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span id="more-4778"></span>In the ‘Long Way Round’ Charley biked around much of the globe from London to New York via Asia, along with co-star Ewan McGregor. Next, the pair journeyed from John O’Groats in Scotland to Cape Town, South Africa to make ‘A Long Way Down’. Watching them tackle the terrain and issues along the way with resilience and good humour was fun to watch.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Charley went solo again with ‘By Any Means’ on a long distance travel adventure using any mode of transport he could find – and we mean any! And of course the ‘Race to Dakar’ was an epic struggle for Charley and the team. But even injury couldn’t stop the Charley from bringing us a heart warming tale of adventure.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>You can join Charley on the <a href="http://www.charleyboorman.com/africa-trip" target="_blank">ride of your life</a> taking in Victoria Falls, Zambia, Malawi, Mozambique and South Africa in August to September 2013. In the meantime we’re looking forward to seeing the new series on Channel 5 in the spring.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today sees the launch of a quirky short film that Polaroid’s charity partner Sightsavers has made with the actor James Corden and the iconic director Rankin. Sightsavers works to combat blindness in developing countries, restoring sight through specialist treatment and eye care. The film’s launch coincides with <a href="http://www.who.int/mediacentre/events/annual/world_sight_day/en/index.html" target="_blank">World Sight Day</a>, today &#8211; Thursday 11 October – and aims to raise awareness of how simple it can be to prevent and treat blindness.</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
The irrepressible Corden takes a humorous look at what he calls ‘The Feel Bad Four’ different ways to do a charity advert – guilt, comedy, empathy and shock.</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
Of course the honest fact that it can cost as little as 35p to stop someone in the developing world from going blind, is perhaps the way he does it best of all.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.sightsavers.org/feelbadfour" target="_blank">Take a look at the film and decide for yourself.</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.sightsavers.org/feelbadfour" target="_blank"><img class="size-full wp-image-4757 alignnone" title="jc lr" src="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/jc-lr.jpg" alt="" width="566" height="315" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>There are many ways that you can support Sightsavers and Polaroid will donate £1 from every pair of <a href="http://www.polaroidsunglasses.co.uk/heritage.html">Best Under the Sun sunglasses</a> you buy this year.</p>
